Chapter 89 Lucian Belongs To Me
After Mrs. Chen left the kitchen, Amelia took a deep breath, regained herposure and focused on
cooking.
"Amelia, I have to admit that I was surprised that you could cook so well at such a young age." Mrs.
Chenplimented Amelia’s cooking when she smelled the vorful aroma of the dishes.
In that moment, Amelia got an excessive amount of praise for her cooking. However, in the back of her
mind she couldn’t help thinking about Lucian.
Her heart wondered if he had eaten or not...
"Mr. Lucian, you haven’t eaten your breakfast. Smoking would have a negative effect on your health."
Pushing the lunch box forward, Eric whispered in Lucian’s ear, "Miss Sasha prepared this soup for you.
Would you like to have some first?"
Showing no interest, Lucian did not even raised his head to look at the lunch box. He continued dealing
with the documents then words escaped his mouth, "Just express my gratitude to Miss. Sasha. I would
drink some when I’m free."
Eric knew that Lucian said that without interest, but he was afraid that his words might enraged him. So
he simply nodded and agreed.
"Eric, how did it go? Did Lucian taste my soup?" The moment Eric walked out of the office, Sasha had
been waiting at the door. She quickly walked up to him and asked anxiously about the result.
Then he sighed and shook his head. "Mr. Lucian asked me to express his gratitude to you on his
behalf." He let out a deep breath, as Lucian didn''t have enough sleep or even eat properly every day
due to the course of his busy work.
"So, Lucian did not bother to have a taste?" Sasha opened her eyes wide. She was shocked for some
time, and afterward angrily stated, "Everything was Amelia''s fault! She was really an attention seeker
from the start. She humiliated Lucian!"
"Miss Sasha, this has nothing to do with Mrs. Amelia. Besides, you''re fully aware about the situation of
the Zhan Group." Eric was also confused about Amelia''s decision, but he still tried to protect her name.
With a displeased look on her face, Sasha retorted, "Lucian would have been mine if it weren''t for
Amelia''s appearance. Lucian and I are meant to be together!"
With a frown on his face, he was worried that Lucian might hear those insensitive words. He
immediately changed the subject. "Miss Sasha, I''m going to take a file for the CEO. I''m leaving now."
After Eric left, Sasha stared at the door of the office and smiled enthusiastically, "Amelia has finally
given up her seat and left. My chance for the throne has finally came."
In the evening, Amelia received a call from Courtney, which informed her that she had dinner with
Lucian.
"You didn''t tell him, did you?" Amelia asked nervously over the phone as she felt chills going down her
spine.
"I have promised you to keep it a secret. I would not break my own words." After saying that, Courtney
sighed and added, "Usually, Lucian was a very high spirited and healthy man. I felt so sorry for him
when I saw him earlier."
Amelia''s heart missed a beat and asked worriedly, "How was he? What''s going on with him?"
Her tone was brimming with eagerness. She was nearly out of breath.
"Although he has mustache and masculine taste, his eyes were drained, his tone was cold and
uninterested, which wasn''t rxed as usual. He did not mention anything about you during the dinner,
but I have a faint feeling that he needed to know your whereabouts. However, he was afraid of touching
anything, so he intentionally avoided it," Courtney said on the other line.
"Courtney, I''m very confused about the right thing to do. What should I do?" Her voice suddenly
became filled with sadness, with a sense of helplessness and anxiety.
"If you still love him,e back to him and face this problem together," Courtney replied at the other
end of the phone without thinking of the words that escaped her mouth.
If the situation was notplicated as it was, Amelia would agree. But the Zhan Group was her
concern.
"He would get used to it when time passes by. My name would not even cross his mind." In her
perception, time was the best way to cure his pain. When Lucian got used to her absence, everything
would get better and better.
"But your leaving did not change the situation of the Zhan Group. Instead, you only further destroyed
Lucian''s fighting capacity. You are source of his strength," Courtney replied.
In her mind, Amelia didn''t expect that Lucian would be so hard-headed to refuse the help of the An
Group.
The reason why she signed the divorce agreement was because she thought this was the best way to
help Lucian. After divorce, she hoped that he could agree to the request of the An Group and help the
Zhan Group get through the crisis.
"Courtney, we can see clearly which is more important. For Lucian, the business of the Zhan Group
was the result of his hard work. I never wanted him to see his achievements falling in front of his own
eyes," she said. Of course, she was not so great as to determine the life and death of the Zhan Group,
but why didn''t she grasp this glimmer of hope as there would be a slim chance for her now?
"Amelia, you are destroying yourself." Courtney''s heart felt sorry for her.
"Lucian treated me sincerely, so it was all worth it. This was the least I can do for him," Amelia said in a
firm tone, sheposed herself to avoid sad emotions.
On the other side of the phone, Courtney remained silent for a long time before she said, "I will support
you whatever decision you make, but you should love yourself a little. Don''t lose yourself in the process
of loving someone so much."
Hearing that Courtney intentionally said loudly for her good mood, Amelia felt warm in her heart.
After being cheated by Jasper, Amelia met Lucian, which was undoubtedly a jackpot in a lottery. She
thought the bonus would be able to buy her happiness for the rest of her life, to live a safe and a
carefree life. However, she did not expect that their peaceful lives would be broken by a sudden bolt
out of the blue.
The next morning Amelia was lying in her bed, suddenly her phone rang which awakened her. Then,
she picked up her phone and saw a text message from Courtney.
Without any idea what happened, she was puzzled. However, the content of Courtney''s text was
rming, Amelia was asked toe to the Zhan Group. In addition, the message stated that someone
was going to die.
Without any hesitation in her mind, she took a taxi along the way to Zhan Group. The doorway was
crowded with unfamiliar faces. Her small slim body squeezed in the crowd. When the scene came into
her view, she was terrified and hurriedly went forward.
On the top floor of Zhan Group''s building, Fannie did not wear any makeup and barely showed her
face. By any moment she could stab her throat by a dagger she held by herself.
Amelia was so afraid that made her eyes rolled. Immediately, she searched around the building and
found Lucian anxiouslymunicating with a medical staff.
"Lucian! There you are!" She ran towards him as quick as she could, held his arm and asked in panic,
"What the hell was going on?"
The instance he heard the familiar voice behind him, his knees trembled with fear. Slowly, he looked
back in disbelief but when he saw clearly who the person was, he didn''t say any word. He just held her
towards his arms and hugged her tightly.

Undeniably she could feel Lucian''s excitement and worry. Tears trickled down her cheeks. "Let''s take
mom back," she said with courage.
"You don''t have to do it. Don''t go there." However, Lucian stopped her. He could not afford to risk her
safety and said, "She acted like that because she wanted to take advantage of the Zhan Group''s
current situation to threaten me."
Amelia took a closer look to him and found that he looked awful. He had always been a gentleman with
a smart and well-groomed face. The change was drastic, his eye bags were thick, there were stubble
on his jaw that showed how busy and restless he was.
Her heart was slowly being torn apart as she saw it.
"Mom, you would really go this far? Do you still think the negative news of the Zhan Group was not
enough?" Lucian was aware of her intention. All part of this suicidal act was trying to force Lucian to
ept the help of the An Group.
Thepany would be negatively affected by this kind of bias of public opinion.
"Amelia,e here and help me." When Fannie saw Amelia, she carefully dropped the dagger and
reached out her hand.
"Mom, stop acting like this, there are all the media around us. Do you really want to make a good
show?" Lucian stood in front of Amelia. He frowned and said in a cold tone. It was difficult for him to
conceal his anger.
There was only a sign of helpless in Fannie''s eyes. If it were before, Amelia would have not listened to
her.
Hearing the words she said, Amelia dazed for a second. Then she walked up to her and reached out to
help her up. While she was helping her, Fannie casually said, "Right now, only you can persuade
Lucian to ept the help of the An Group. Refusing that offer would crash thispany down."
After hearing those words, Amelia''s heart trembled and her eyes kept twinkling due to nervousness. In
addition, several media reporters around her took photos crazily and she could barely open her eyes.
Onlooker groups scattered. After having the sensational news the reporters began to leave with
satisfaction. The chaotic scene turned into silence.
Lucian drove Fannie home after all that happened and Amelia followed. Nichs seemed to read the
news. The moment he saw Fannie, his face darkened.
"Mom, you must be tired. Would you like to have a rest upstairs?" Amelia whispered through her ear.
Based on the situation, she was afraid that Nichs would have a big fight with Fannie.
"Can you apany me upstairs?" Fannie looked more friendly than usual, so Lucian thought it would
be fine and didn''t stop her.
Inside the bedroom Fannie''s facial expression changed, she looked serious. With a cold tone she
asked, "Since you''ve signed the divorce agreement, why don''t you be more decisive?"
Her words sent chills down to Amelia''s spine. ''Signing the divorce agreement brought immeasurable
pain to me, and it would also hurt Lucian. Why does it be a thing for Fannie?'' she thought.
But on the second thought, she remembered that she was not weed as her daughter-inw. So
her mother-inw should have been happy that about the divorce.
"I wouldn''t have shown up if it weren''t for what happened this morning," Amelia replied. The moment
she heard the news, Amelia couldn''t help but ran towards them.
"I am pretty sure you woulde." After shing a gloating smile, she then cast a cold nce at
Amelia and said, "Lucian is your weakness, and you are his. If you can make him hate you, then the
Zhan Group will have a slim chance of survival."
Never in her wildest dreams did Amelia imagined that the Zhan Group''s existence would have anything
to do with her.
Seeing Amelia went downstairs, Lucian said to Nichs, "Dad, we''re leaving now."
As a sign of respect, Amelia did a small curtsy to him as well. The moment she turned around, Nichs
called out her attention, "Amelia, you are a very good girl."
The words he said touched the softest part of her heart. Her eyes were full of tears. After a few moment
she smiled and said, "Dad, always take care of yourself."
Perhaps, this would be thest time she called him dad. This moment might be considered as their
farewell to each other.
Aftering out of the Zhan mansion, Lucian got hold her hand then he forcibly dragged her into his
arms. Before senses could hit her, Lucian''s lips covered hers fiercely...
All her sadness suddenly vanished because of his actions toward her. Tears started to roll down her
cheeks and eventually covered her whole face.
Tears flowed on their lips, Lucian stopped kissing her. He held her beautiful face then he felt as if
knives were piercing through his heart.
"Why did you leave without a saying a word?" The originally angry questioning turned to a gentle one
filled with love.
