Since She Met Lucian

Amelia pressed her lips as she felt sore all over her body that even her feet were numb with pain.

It was already half past seven but the sky was still visible. Shelly took out a bottle of water and downed it all in one gulp. "Do you want some?" she asked arrogantly.

Amelia looked away and said coldly, "Miss Shelly, this is not a TV drama. You can stop now."

Shelly was emotionless. She wasn't focusing her energy on controlling her anger instead she was playing tricks. She opened the bottle, held the bottle midair, and poured it on Amelia's face.

Amelia tried her best to dodge, turning to the side in an attempt to avoid the cold water splashing all over her.

However, Shelly was quick. Soon, Amelia was having trouble breathing with all the water pouring down on her, she kicked her legs helplessly.

"Hahaha..." Shelly laughed evilly. In a mocking tone, she taunted, "Amelia, do you want to know what you look like right now? If this gets out to the news, your squeaky clean image will be tainted. I don't think Lucian would find that attractive, wouldn't you?"

"Miss Shelly, I respect you. I know I promised I wouldn't be involved with Lucian anymore but now you're just being mean. Aren't you ashamed of yourself?" Amelia wasn't softhearted anymore. At the most, she merely tolerated Shelly but if Shelly wasn't going to be a decent human being then she was definitely going to fight back.

The mockery on Shelly's face was gone as it was replaced with a stone cold look. She stared at Amelia and said, "So I'm guessing you're showing your true colors now?"

"Sucks for you because I did feel guilty but at the moment, I don't have any left," Amelia answered coldly.

Shelly was irritated. She crouched down, reached out her hand, and raised Amelia's face by placing her finger on Amelia's chin. She said coldly, "So this is the face Lucian's so obsessed with, huh? I wonder what would happen if I scratched it. Would he still like it?"

Amelia stared at Shelly warily when she saw that Shelly had taken out a dagger. It gleamed under the light as Shelly gripped it with her hand.

It never occurred to Amelia that something she thought only happened on TV would happen to her as well. This was horrifying.

Shelly had completely lost her mind. Amelia knew she couldn't provoke Shelly any further—she had to look for ways then to distract Shelly.

The answer was pretty obvious: Lucian. If they talked about Lucian, she could stall Shelly a little bit longer.

"Aren't you curious how Lucian really feels about you?" Amelia didn't know what to say so she tried to talk nonsense.

To her surprise, it worked. Shelly paused as she gazed into Amelia's face with interest. "How Lucian really feels about me?" she pondered.

Amelia was quick to notice that upon the mention of Lucian, the anger and hatred on Shelly's face disappeared.
