Chapter 296 We Have Been Married For Years (2/2)

to the palm of her hands. She stood there with eyes blazing with wrath.

”And why wouldn't you blame him?!” Amelia only assumed that Lucian had stopped her on purpose when they were on the stairs just to distract her. If he really had genuine concern for his father, he would have rushed towards him as soon as possible.

What Fannie had done towards Nicholas could have been avoided if he didn't carry her all the way to their bedroom.

After she tried to break down everything that had just happened, Amelia glared at Lucian with suspicion and was suddenly frightened of him.

When Lucian noticed the strange look in her eyes, he was completely perplexed. ”Amelia, why are you looking at me like that?”

”Oh dear, stop pretending!” Amelia quickly assumed that Lucian was holding a grudge against Nicholas after everything had been revealed. She thought that he was unwilling to call him his father for those reasons.

”Pretend...?” Lucian muttered as his eyes narrowed with a stone cold expression. He was completely puzzled as to why Amelia was looking at him with so much suspicion and said, ”My mother was never a rational person, but I hoped that you can at least be one!”

However, what Lucian had said not only caused Amelia to be more furious, it also presented him in a bad light.

”Well, what a surprise. When your mother says something wrong, you ask me to respect her. However, when I say something wrong, you tell me I am just as irrational as your mother. So tell me, whose side are you really on?” She really did not want to have to say these things in front of Nicholas, but what Lucian said offended her so much that she couldn't help but express her disbelief towards his hypocritical statements.

Lucian's eyebrows furrowed even more deeply. He never meant to criticize Amelia earlier. He just wanted to find a way to resolve the issues between Amelia and Fannie.”
