Chapter 225 Being Ungrateful (2/2)

'What's wrong with him? Did I really do something so bad to make him so upset?' Amelia thought to herself. On a typical day, Lucian was always happy to spend time and play with Mark in the living room after dinner. Tonight, he didn't even bother to take a look.

Amelia carefully prepared some fruit for Lucian, considering the fact that he skipped dinner at home. She held the plate of fruit as she walked toward his study.

Amelia came in and found Lucian busy with his study. She swiftly walked over and handed him a delicate plate of fruit and timidly said, ”Eat some fruit before you get caught up with work.”

Amelia was very mindful about intervening, so she turned her back before saying anything more.

Lucian paused for a second and watched Amelia as she walked away. With an ice-cold voice, he asked, ”Why would Jonny give you that flower?”

Amelia's breath let out a short gasp when he finally said something, while her body trembled with fear. Her face was stuck in a dazed expression before she was able to turn around and respond to Lucian, ”He gave me flowers to congratulate me on the opening of my shop.”

But when she thought of the meaning of the flower, Amelia couldn't help but frown.

”Never mind.” Lucian scoffed as he heard this and looked back down to continue writing on his documents.

”Lucian?” Amelia called for him with a delicate voice.

Lucian looked up at her and gave a rigorous look.

”I know that it has nothing to do with you. I've had an ill temper all day, don't trouble yourself about it. It's nothing to take at heart,” he said apologetically.
