Chapter 321 Nicholas Doubts (2/2)

”Read through the rest of the documents and report the key points to me,” Lucian said as he hurriedly grabbed his coat and ran to the elevator.

When the elevator reac

ed him with any suspicion, it would be a huge disservice to Lucian and the fruits of all his efforts.

”Lucian is a good person and it is fortunate that he didn't inherit any of Edmund's bad characteristics. This is why I have great hopes for him. However, I am afraid that there will come a time when the Zhan Group will no longer be around.” Since Amelia was Nicholas' and Iris' daughter, he was worried for her future and the future of his grandson, Mark.

Nicholas' worries made Amelia speechless.

But all of safeguards that Nicholas had put into place made Lucian feel desperate.

”I respect you a lot, mostly because you're Lucian's father. But if you can't trust Lucian, then I can't respect you the same way anymore because Lucian is my husband. He's your grandchild's father.” Amelia felt like it was the last thing that she could possibly say to Nicholas to make him understand that there was no way or reason that she would be OK with Nicholas not trusting Lucian.

The Zhan Group may be strong as a company, but Lucian was still just Lucian. He was just one man who still had the needs that a normal man would need like people he could depend on.

And as his wife, Amelia felt ashamed that she could not do more to make everything easier for Lucian. To ease him of his burden.

”I understand that you and Lucian get along very well with each other. But you are a daughter of the Zhan family. You have to consider the Zhan family,” Nicholas explained. He had no choice but to use her blood connection to make her understand and see why he had to do the things that he did.

He was convinced that his words would help make Amelia understand everything about his decisions. But this was not the case.

After she heard Nicholas' explanation that they connected with blood relations, Amelia felt a little disappointed. She immediately replied back to Nicholas without thinking about what she was about to say, ”If blood ties can create distrust, should I still feel grateful?”
