Chapter 48 The Fate Of Bullying My Woman
There possibly couldn''t be a person in the world who wanted to be deceived. In this case, it was really
difficult for Lucian to give a proper response.
The only thing Amelia could do was to hope that Lucian would feel better tomorrow.
The next morning, Amelia got up a lotter than usual. Perhaps it was because of the soft patter of the
rain outside. She got out of bed and hurriedly got dressed before running downstairs, thinking that
Lucian had already left. Upon reaching the kitchen, she saw that Lucian was still there, leisurely having
his coffee. He cast her a cold nce before drawing his attention back to the newspaper in his hand.
''Huh... He seems to be rxed even though I woke upte,'' Amelia thought.
"Mrs. Amelia,e here to have breakfast," Lily greeted when she saw Ameliae down the stairs.
Slowly, Amelia went to the table and sat down. ''I thought that Lucian would say something about how I
woke upte,'' she thought since she was twenty minuteste. But she puzzled as she looked at Lucian
who still hadn''t said a single thing to her.
After carefully looking at Lucian, Amelia looked at the food on the table. Her stomach rumbled, and
soon could no longer resist the temptation of the delicious food in front of her. One bite after the other,
Amelia barely chewed on the food she swallowed.
She thought that it was likely that Lucian would tell her to hurry up as soon as she started to eat.
Not to mention that she would still have to put on her shoes. Amelia took a gulp of water to help push
down the food in her throat.
Just when she was about to finish her meal, she saw Lucian walk over slowly and help himself to some
food.
Furrowing her brows, Amelia looked at the clock and saw that they only had ten minutes left. "Aren''t we
going to bete?" Amelia asked Lucian anxiously.
''Why is he so rxed? He''s always been so uptight about being punctual,'' she wondered. With ten
minutes left to spare, Lucian was going to bete for work at this rate. He took his time eating, chewing
his food slowly and leisurely.
Lucian didn''t answer Amelia nor did he even look up at her.
Not willing to take any chances, Amelia went to the hallway and put on her shoes. ''He might suddenly
dart off before I even get to put my shoes on,'' she scoffed in her mind.
When Lucian had finished eating, he and Amelia went over to the garage. However, just when Amelia
was about to get in, Lucian waved his hand at her to stop. "You already have a car of your own," he
said coldly, "I no longer need to drive you around, right?"
"Okay," Amelia said.
Although her tone was calm, her heart was full of helplessness.
After one,st cold nce, Lucian got in the car and drove away.
When the car was out of her sight, Amelia let out a long, deep sigh. Amelia wanted toin, but
she had no strength to deal with it right now.
''I know I''m the one who lied first,'' she thought, biting on her lower lip. ''But he didn''t have to treat me
this way!''
Her hands clutched nervously on the keys to her brand new car.
Although she had gotten her driver''s license, she had not yet experienced driving around that much.
Time was ticking, and if she waited a while longer, she would bete for work. Given her situation, she
had no choice but to get in the car regardless of her inconfidence in driving it.
SJ Garden had a fairly simpleyout. Although there were several intersections, the roads were nice
and t, which was perfect for driving beginners like her.
Aside from the fact that she wasn''t exactly the best driver out there, Amelia didn''t like the attention she
was getting from this shiny, new car.
But at this point, she was already runningte. Amelia unwittingly stepped a little harder on the
elerator to get to work in time. However, things didn''t turn out exactly how she imagined it to be...
"Hey! What do you think you''re doing!" a sturdy man shouted as he knocked angrily at Amelia''s car
window.
Taking a deep breath, Amelia unfastened her seat belt and got out of the car. There, she was aware
that there was arge scratch at the back of her car. "Oh no..." she mumbled, getting all flustered.
"I''m not talking about your car,dy! Look at mine!" the man angrily said as he pointed towards his
BMW. There was a thick, golden ne around his fat neck.
Amelia walked over to the man''s car and saw that there was a muchrger scratch on it — the license
te had beenpletely crushed.
At the sight of this, Amelia''s heart dropped to her gut.
It all happened so quickly. When she was going up the slope, she had forgotten to change gears. In a
panic, she quickly tried to back away, not remembering to pay attention to any of the cars behind her.
As a result, such a tragedy happened.
"Yes... Sorry... I... I didn''t mean it!" At this point, Amelia was much too terrified of the man to utter a
word clearly. "I can pay for it," she said, "I''ll pay for the repairs. Is that good enough?"
Although he wasn''t tall, he was a very stocky man. He looked to be in his forties, and was starting to
get a bald spot on the top of his head. But the only thing Amelia could see was his eyes bulging in
anger.
"It''s easy for you to say that. I just bought this car!" There were veins on the side of his head as he
shouted at Amelia. "Since you won''t do anything about it, I''m going to call the police!" he threatened as
he took out his mobile phone.
"Hey! I never said that I wasn''t going to do anything about it!" "Look, I''m sorry that your car was
damaged. But I have just told you that I promise to pay for the repairs," Amelia said as calmly as
possible. She didn''t want to make things worse than they were.
But the man looked like he wasn''t in the mood for democracy. "I don''t want to hear another word from
you until the police gets here!" he screamed. The man took his phone and quickly dialed.
''Is he trying to ckmail me? What am I going to do now? Why did this have to happen!'' Amelia
thought worriedly.
''I also have to think about the car Lucian just bought for me. Can this day get any worse?''
Just then, her phone rang. Looking on the screen, she saw that it was Lucian calling.
She clenched her phone and hesitated to answer it.
Upon checking the time, she saw that she was already half an hourte for work.
At this point, Amelia figured that it was better to answer his call at once instead of annoying him any
further. With all her might, she answered the call and put the phone to her ear.
"Hello?" she greeted gingerly.
"I didn''t know that we were epting turtles into thepany now!" Lucian''s cold and deep voice
sounded through the phone.
His voice was full of anger.
Amelia was so frightened that her hand trembled. On the other hand, the fat man was also looking at
her with anger as well. She immediately felt a great pressure.
In this moment, there were two people who were hostile towards her. Amelia''s head felt light from all
the overwhelming things that were happening.
"I''m sorry, Mr. Lucian. I might... I might have..."
"Hello, police officer!" the fat man suddenly greeted. As soon as the police in uniform came up, the fat
man came forward and pointed a finger at Amelia. "This woman who can''t drive totally wrecked my car!
Pleasee here at once!"
"What''s going on there?" Lucian asked, faintly overhearing the man through the phone.
Amelia''s face turned pale with fear. Last night, she had told a lie to Lucian. If she lied again now, she
would never survive him. Plus, it would be hard to hide the scratch on the car.
"Well... The thing is, I.... I was on a slope and--"
"Get to the point!" Lucian said impatiently.
"I... I identally hit somebody''s car," murmured Amelia in a trembling voice.
There was a pause, but she could hear Lucian''s breath. After a while, Lucian spoke up. "Are you hurt?"
he asked in a soft voice.
Amelia was shocked. She thought for sure that Lucian was going to shout at her and get mad. Hearing
his voice filled with concern, Amelia''s heart flooded with warmth.
"No, I''m alright," she answered in a low voice, a smile slowly appearing on her lips.
"Tell me where you are. I''ll pick you up." Although Lucian''s voice was as cold and distant as it normally
was, Amelia felt a sense of security when she heard this.
After telling him her current location, the policeman went over to her. He asked her what had
happened. Amelia exined, and told the policeman that she was willing to pay for the damages she
had caused.
"Since she''s willing to cover the expenses to repair your car, I don''t see any problems," the officer said.
The fat man suddenly changed his attitude. "Okay. It''s up to you," he said as he looked up and down at
Amelia.
Amelia continued to apologize to the fat man for the inconvenience.
After the police left, the fat man walked to Amelia, rubbing his nose with his stubby thumb, "You don''t
have a boyfriend, do you?"
It was obvious what the man was trying to do.
"I''m married!" She raised the ring on her hand and warned him.
"So what? You really think paying off for my repairs is going to cut it? Maybe we''ll be even if you pay
with your body..." The fat man was getting closer and closer to Amelia, his face twisted with perversion.
Amelia looked at the man in disgust, slowly backing away from him. She took out her mobile phone and
was ready to call the police.
"Fine, call the police. I doubt that they woulde to your rescue though..." the man said with a
devious smile on his face.
Amelia was too angry to say a word. She dialed the number with her trembling finger. The more she
tried to keep calm, the more panic she felt.
Click! With a loud bang, the man grabbed onto her phone and threw it hard onto the ground.

"I advice that you not try to do anything. Just own up to your mistake and let me kiss you, why don''t
you? Not only will I forgive you — I''ll also help you clean out the scratch on your car. What do you
think?" The fat man saw that Amelia wasn''t willing to cooperate with him. He grabbed her hair and
pulled her into his arms, pretending to kiss her.
Although he was not tall, he was a man of strength. No matter how hard Amelia struggled, she couldn''t
get out of his grasp.
"Let me go!" Amelia gritted her teeth and red at the fat man.
He touched her body with his dirty hand and smiled at her evilly.
She bit her lower lip and stepped on the shoes of the fat man, thinking that he would let her go because
of the pain. But unexpectedly, the fat man groaned softly and pressed her body against the car with
more vigor, intending to kiss her forcefully.
There were a lot of cars on the road and yet no one came to save her. Amelia wanted to shout, but the
fat man covered her mouth with his hand.
Amelia was unable to move. The man''s face came in closer and closer, just mere inches away from
hers. There was nothing Amelia could do now but close her eyes and pray that all of this would end. All
of a sudden, the man was pulled away. There was a loud thud, and the man groaned in pain.
Amelia was still in shock and did not dare to open her eyes. Suddenly, strong arms wrapped around
her trembling body. She flinched, thinking that it was the fat man. "You little fool," a familiar voice called
out. Amelia opened her eyes in surprise.
Lucian had made it just in time. Even though he was already here, Amelia still felt immensely terrified.
Slowly, she put her arms around his waist and buried her face in Lucian''s chest. As she smelled his
familiar andforting scent, Amelia finally allowed herself to cry.
