Chapter 250 What A Small World (1/2)

”Lucian, why are you home so early today?” Amelia asked softly when they were eating in the dining room. She was surprised because this was the first time that Lucian came home ahead of her.

”I finish everything in the office early so I decided to go home,” replied Lucian. Actually, he wasn't really in the mood to work today so after dealing with a few important documents, he went home.

He thought that he could see Amelia when he got home, but unfortunately she wasn't there yet.

Thinking that she must be at the flower shop, Lucian didn't bother to call her. He knew that she was sometimes busy with her work there. However, he began to feel anxious when Amelia hadn't returned yet when it was already dinnertime.

He had cooked dinner for them. ”You are getting better at cooking,” commented Amelia.

The truth was, Amelia didn't know what to say. She was so nervous and she was afraid that she might say something wrong.

She had finally understood why Lucian didn't tell her the truth. Maybe they both lacked the courage to face the fact.

”Why are you sweating?” Lucian noticed the beads of sweat on Amelia's forehead so he handed her a tissue.

”Why are you sweating a lot when the air conditioner is on?” asked Lucian again.

Amelia felt a bit guilty when she saw the quizzical look on Lucian's face. ”I did some workout before I came home,” she lied. She made a face and stuck out her tongue to make her lie more believable.

”Eat first then take a shower after you get some rest.”

Amelia wasn't sure if Lucian believed in her excuse but she just nodded obediently. It looked like Lucian was also absorbed in his own thoughts.
