Chapter 298 Help Her Cover Up Her Mistakes (2/2)
Perhaps due to anger, Amelia could feel her chest tightening as she gasped for breath.
”Amelia, what happened?” Lucian asked gently upon noticing her pale face, walking over to her. He couldn't help but worry if it was about Nicholas's health.
Amelia stared at Lucian and asked
ad of Fiona and be better than her. Unfortunately, things always end up going awry.” Nicholas eyes sparkled with admiration when he mentioned Fiona. Still smiling, he continued, ”I refused her proposal to get married after Fiona's death. I only agreed eventually for Lucian's sake.”
”So she's taking her anger out on you? I'm assuming this isn't the first time that this has happened?” Amelia could tell that until now, Fiona was still in Nicholas's heart—something Fannie never managed to do.
Even the servants in the Zhan mansion didn't like Fannie. They obeyed her orders but they weren't loyal to her in any way.
Fannie probably felt that this rich and luxurious life she was living wasn't hers. She was probably scared that it could get taken away from her any time.
”It's been years and I've already gotten used to her but recently, she's been going too far especially with the things she's asking from me!” Nicholas grew slightly angry as he spoke. ”I haven't seen her in days and I have lots of peaceful time.”
”Asking from you?” Amelia asked in confusion. She couldn't help but wonder why Nicholas was suddenly so angry.
”She asked me to leave most of my property to her and Lucian. While you and Mark get the remainders, she said that's what's fair for you and Mark...” Even as Nicholas repeated the words, it was obvious that he was so angry that he couldn't stop knocking the crutch on the ground as he spoke.
