Since She Met Lucian novel Chapter 62

For their lunch break that day, Amelia was planning to meet with Sasha. She was already on her way to Sasha when she stumbled upon something quite surprising.

A female colleague called out Kent's name and when Amelia turned to look at the person, the guy was the Kent that she knew.

"Kent, why didn't you clear it up with your girlfriend?" the female furiously asked.

'Isn't Courtney Kent's girlfriend?' Amelia thought to herself silently. Amelia believed that their conversation had something to do with Courtney, so she decided not to make herself known and secretly listen.

"Melissa, it's not that easy to convince my girlfriend with just a few words. What's more, my girlfriend and I have been together for so long. If I suddenly told her about it, she won't be able to handle it." Kent tried to calm Melissa down by grabbing her arms and speaking to her in a self-pitying tone.

"I don't care about that. You and I both know what happened that night better than anyone else. If you don't want to lose your reputation in the Zhan Group, you know what you should do!" Finishing those words, Melissa pushed Kent away and walked away with heavy steps. The sound of her heels could be heard even after she had been gone for a few minutes.

Amelia was stunned. Although she wasn't sure if what she just heard was as she guessed, she could definitely feel that there was something wrong with Kent and Courtney's relationship.

'Should I go and ask Kent to be sure? I guess right now is not a good time,' Amelia thought to herself.

While she was still hesitating, Kent went on his way downstairs. It seemed like he finally decided to chase after Melissa.

For a while, Amelia stood at the stairs in a daze. She then remembered her plan to meet Sasha so she quickly headed for the elevator. She decided then that she would visit Courtney after work.

"It can't be that, it's got to be something else!" She silently hoped that things weren't as bad as she thought.

As Amelia went on her way to Sasha, she remembered that Courtney had told her that Kent was in the Sales Department. The same department where Sasha was working at. If Sasha was a representative of the meeting on behalf of the department, she must be a very important person around here. When she finally reached the office, a few female colleagues were gathered together, watching a movie on their phones and discussing with each other cheerfully. When they saw Amelia came in, they all returned to their seats quickly, looking at her curiously.

Amelia did not expect that her arrival in the Sales Department would have such a reaction. She smiled at everyone and politely said, "I'm sorry to disturb you. Is Miss Sasha here?"

"Mrs. Amelia, Miss Sasha's hand got injured so she asked for a leave then went home," a tall female employee answered.

"Oh okay, thank you," Amelia replied. Amelia smiled graciously and was about to leave but then she remembered how the female employee called her just now. She felt embarrassed so she reminded them, "I am also an employee of the Zhan Group, so we are colleagues. You can just call me by my name."

Although Amelia kindly introduced herself, others thought she was giving them orders and taking advantage of the title "Mrs. Amelia". Moreover, they hadn't forgotten that it was she who accidentally burned Sasha's hand in their morning meeting. This was why the staff of the Sales Department had a lousy impression of her.

However, those female employees still pretended to be gracious with her. It was only when she left that they began to talk bad about her. Not one of them actually liked Amelia.

"I heard you went to the Sales Department?" As soon as Amelia came back to the CEO's office, Lucian questioned her while sitting on his armchair.

Amelia was utterly surprised by Lucian's words. She thought of asking if he had planted a monitoring device on her, but she knew that he could easily know everything because he was the CEO of the Zhan Group.

"Stop muttering doubts in your mind. I'm just worried that my confused wife will not get her way. And you have been there for a very long time," Lucian sincerely stated while he looked at Amelia. Lucian placed his cup of coffee on the table and made a cup for Amelia. "You have a lot of work to do in the afternoon. So you should've just relaxed and taken a rest. But instead, you wasted it by running around during your lunch break," Lucian thoughtfully said, scolding her a little.

It was already a rare occurrence for Lucian to say more than a few words to Amelia. And the fact that every word he said was about taking care of her brought upon a smile to her face and a warm feeling in her heart.

Before saying anything else, she sipped from her cup. "I went to visit Miss Sasha."

After uttering those words, Amelia felt it was unnecessary because Lucian probably knew about it already.

Lucian looked at her earnestly and said, "Amelia, you have to be aware of your identity now."

Amelia thought her posture wasn't right since she was leaning forward against the desk. She immediately stood up straight.

When he noticed this, Lucian couldn't help but laugh and said, "Amelia, are you that silly or are you just making fun of me?"

She felt that neither was the case. She shook her head in confusion and responded, "Didn't you tell me that I have to be aware of my identity? I know who I am, I'm your assistant. I should be respectful to you." Whenever Eric would interact with Lucian, he would always stand upright, speak in a soft tone, act in a respectful manner, and politely talk to him.

Upon hearing what Amelia said, Lucian couldn't help but give her a thumbs up. He then said, "I mean, since you're my wife, you don't have to worry about Sasha. And, do you really mean it when you said that you're not jealous?"

After which, Lucian looked at Amelia's face with curious eyes, trying to see the changes in her expression.

Amelia suddenly looked anxious. There was a voice in her heart saying that of course, she was jealous, but...

"I was also a victim of love so I didn't want to make Sasha sad." This was exactly what Amelia had in her mind. She didn't believe that she had to be a respectable person in their relationship.

Lucian couldn't help but sneer. He gave her a warning look and firmly stated, "If you step back, she will try every means to get close to me. By then, the only thing you can do is cry."
