Chapter 158 Lucian Got Jealous (1/2)

Amelia had never felt the compassion of a mother since Iris died. But each time she was with Emma, she somehow felt a semblance of that feeling.

Amelia and Emma chatted for a while as they spent time together. After having lunch, Jonny brought Amelia back to the SJ Garden. She entered the house silently and found that Lily was taking a nap. The phone suddenly rang when she was on her way upstairs. She went and answered the phone, it was Lucian who was calling.

”Hello, Lucian. It's me.” She felt mildly surprised by Lucian's call. She wondered why he didn't call her on her mobile phone.

”I called your mobile many times but it's powered off. Lily told me earlier that you have gone out?” Amelia took out her mobile phone and found that it was indeed turned off. She tried to turn it on but it wouldn't turn on.

”I'm sorry, Lucian. I forgot to charge my phone last night,” she replied in a distressed tone of voice.

”It's not a problem. I just want to make sure that you are OK,” Lucian replied with a soft voice. A tone of relief could clearly be heard from his voice.

Amelia understood exactly how anxious Lucian must've felt when he was not able to contact her mobile phone even after multiple attempts.

”So, what's up with you? Are you done with work and on your way back home?” Amelia asked in a hopeful tone. It was barely three in the afternoon.

”Not yet, but I might get off work early as soon as I finish this,” Lucian replied. He sounded eager to complete his work right away and get back home to Amelia.

”I'll be cooking dinner. Then I will be waiting for you once I'm done,” Amelia said in her usual tone of voice.

They spoke a little bit more on the phone and then Lucian hung up.

There was a knock on the door of his office as soon as he hung up the phone.
