Since She Met Lucian

Chapter 127 To Give Her And The Baby A Surprise

She was so busy that she didn't even have the time to have dinner. When she saw Lucian open the food box, a feeling of warmth coursed through her heart. This made her stomach grumble so she walked towards Lucian and looked through the food in the box.

"I haven't had dinner either. We can have dinner together." He just wanted to have a meal with Amelia without all the guilt. For just a while, he wanted to be with her and be happy.

After dinner, Lucian and Eric sat at their seats outside the shop. They seemed to be talking about business while Amelia was calculating the net profit of the whole day.

"Why haven't you come back yet?" Amelia raised her head again, only to find that Eric had left already and Lucian was quietly watching her.

"Why are you calculating by hand?" Lucian had grabbed her notepad in which Amelia was writing on. At that moment, he looked truly captivating.

"Give it back!" Amelia frowned as she tried to get her notepad back.

She was bad at math so she always felt like her calculations were wrong.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. I can't believe my wife is so stupid! I worry about our unborn son's IQ," Lucian taunted her, grinning playfully.

Amelia wasn't offended. If anything, she felt butterflies fluttering in her stomach. On the outside though, she made sure she was still composed.

After making a mistake with one of her calculations, Lucian headed to the bar counter and powered up the computer. He began typing quickly—classifying the drinks, setting the sales, and inputting the unit prices. Soon, with his formula, he was able to get a result.

Amelia was stunned. She couldn't help but admire Lucian.

"Looks like you had a good day. If things continue like this, you'll be a rich woman soon," he complimented her as he flashed her a smile.

A hint of joy appeared on Amelia's face. "This is Courtney's shop, not mine. As long as I get my salary, I'm good but the more she makes, the better. I just need money to buy milk for the baby."

She was so happy that she hadn't realized that she'd hurt Lucian with her words.

"Amelia, you're acting as if I'm not around. I'm the father of this child," Lucian said coldly. The shift in his mood was quick, his eyes quickly turned cold.

Taken aback, Amelia averted her gaze and pretended she didn't hear him. "Well, looks like I don't have any customers left. I have to get going."

She sounded dismissive which hurt Lucian.

However, Lucian quickly shoved his bitterness aside when he thought of the good news that Eric had just brought to him. Once he freed himself of his shackle of a marriage, he could finally be completely there for Amelia and their child.

"I'll drive you home," Lucian offered.

Amelia looked at him, unable to find the courage in herself to refuse him.
