Since She Met Lucian

Chapter 139 I Will Make Your Life Worse Than Death

"Oh, stop saying that," Courtney murmured in embarrassment. She placed her hand on Amelia's shoulder and said, "When Kent and I first started dating, I never left his side for even a minute. But now that we're back together, I want to spend more time with you."

Amelia couldn't help but laugh when she heard Courtney's reply. "Well, that's great to hear! Thank you."

Courtney had looked happier and livelier since her reconciliation with Kent. She would spend her free time chatting him up on the phone and the couple easily passed hours this way.

"You said Kent is bringing us some food?" Amelia asked, an idea coming over to her.

Courtney thought she must be hungry. She stood up and said, "He's supposed to be here by now. I'll go out and take a look."

'If Kent could easily come inside and out of the villa, I can find a way out then, ' thought Amelia.

She followed Courtney to the gate and saw Kent arriving. He stepped out of his car carrying a huge bag of food.

"Why are you so late?" Courtney asked annoyed. The spoiled and snappy girlfriend in her was showing.

"I got stuck in traffic. Are you hungry? You must be starving," Kent said with a worried expression on his face. He looked at her like there was no one else in the whole world.

"It's not about me. It doesn't matter whether I'm hungry or not, but I can't let my godchild starve. Come in!" Courtney replied. She took the bag of food to free his hands.

It was only then when Kent noticed Amelia who had been standing behind Courtney. Awkwardly, he smiled and apologized, "Sorry, Amelia. It's rush hour. Traffic was terrible."

Kent looked like his former self, Courtney's tamed pet.

With a bright smile on her face, Amelia teased him, "Why are you so afraid of her?"

Hearing her words, Courtney glared at Amelia and said, "Well, I was worried that you and the baby might be hungry, but I guess this is what I get for caring about you."

They bickered like old friends as they would always do until their hunger became too painful to ignore.

"Courtney, can you go ahead and set the table? I just have something to talk about with Kent," Amelia lied. She was actually trying to look for a way out.

Courtney thought it was an odd request from Amelia, but she also considered that they hadn't seen each other in a while. She wanted to ask what they were going to talk about, but decided against it and went straight inside.

"Kent, can you do me a favor?" Seeing Kent's car, Amelia thought of the best way to escape.
