Chapter 81 The Happy Candlelight Dinner (2/2)

a held her head, feeling a bit dizzy. When she remembered how she had initiated their kiss last night, her head lowered down in embarrassment. ”I was too drunk last night.”

A smile formed on his lips as he remembered the scene. ”Don't worry. You were drunk at home anyway. And besides, it's fine to fall prey to a similar situation twice.”

”Huh? Twice?” Amelia looked at Lucian in surprise.

A frown made its way to his forehead when he realized how confused Amelia was. Didn't she remember anything from last night? He thought for a while as a smile adorned his lips, kissing her head gently. ”I'll always be good to you.”

When a pair of strong hands lifted her up, she turned around to see the bed sheets. She narrowed her eyes and remembered the color of the sheet. Hadn't she placed a cream-colored sheet yesterday morning? It seemed Lucian changed it to white while she was asleep.

No matter how naive she was, she could understand why Lucian had to change the sheets so suddenly.

”Last night…” Her voice trailed off, realizing that it was a reality, not a dream.

Amelia's body went stiff at the thought. She couldn't even dare to look at Lucian in the eyes.

”Amelia. We are a couple.” He cupped her face and forced her to look at him.

She understood what he meant, but embarrassment took over her rational mind. Her face turned red, and she averted her eyes. ”I... I'll be in the bathroom.”

Just as she took two steps, she felt a throbbing pain in her legs. She was trembling all over. Lucian took hold of her before she could fall, carrying her back to bed. He poured hot water for her in a cup and said, ”You should rest. If you need anything, I'll be outside.”

Amelia's face was as red as a tomato. She couldn't speak a word.

Ever since they started sleeping on the same bed, she knew this day would come. Still, she felt embarrassed when that moment finally crossed her path.
