Chapter 1058
Lucian took a few steps back and looked down at her clenched fists. Then, he held her hand and
walked out of the neighbourhood.
Amelia stared at his hand quietly. It was the first time he had taken the initiative to get close to her.
His hand was not warm, and it was even a bit cool, just like hers. However, she knew that his
indifferent exterior concealed one of the kindest hearts.
They left the neighbourhood under the envious eyes of the people around. A middle-aged woman
who knew Amelia immediately went to her house when she saw that Amelia was taken away by a
handsome and charming man.
Lucian brought Amelia to a rtively nice restaurant and ordered a private box. After ordering the
dishes, he poured a ss of warm water for Amelia.
Along the way, Amelia did not say a word and allowed Lucian to take her hand.
That kind of feeling was very secure. She felt as if she was really in love. Since it would never
happen again, she didn''t want to refuse him this time.
"Drink some warm water. The dishes will soon be served." Lucian said in a slightly hoarse voice,
and she could smell the familiar and pleasant smell of him.
Amelia nced sideways at him. He was sitting next to her, and he was so quite, just like the plum
blossom in winter night, noble and distant.
She took the water from his hand, and the temperature was just right. She took a sip of it and put it
on the table.
Lucian looked at her silently and didn''t speak.
It was so quiet in the private box that they could even hear each other''s breathing.
Amelia was very unustomed to this kind of quietness. She was reserved and nervous, and even
her breathing was so cautious.
"Thank you!" After a long while, she thanked him again.
In addition to this, she did not know what to say.
"Thank me for what?" Lucian looked at her coldly, and his expression was the same as ever.
Amelia smiled, "Thank you for treating me to dinner."
She lowered her head and didn''t dare to look into his eyes. He had seen how poor and awkward
she was, which made her feel herself inferior.
Lucian said, "You don''t have to thank me."
The private box became quiet again in an instant.
Lucian seemed to have been used to such silence. He sat quietly and looked at ease.
However, Amelia was uneasy and embarrassed.
About ten minutester, the dishes were served and Amelia was no longer so nervous.
Lucian filled her bowl with rice and ced it in front of her, "Eat it." His deep voice was very
pleasant to hear.
"Thank you!" Amelia felt that there was nothing else she could say except for these two words.
Lucian nced at her and said nothing because he was not so hungry at this time.N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.
Amelia lowered her head and ate silently. Seeing that she only had rice, Lucian picked up some
food for her.
Amelia kept thanking him, but Lucian kept frowning. It seemed that he didn''t like to hear the two
words.
Amelia ate very slowly. Amelia''s nervous heart gradually rxed when she sensed Lucian''s concern
for her, and she looked more at ease.
She ate a lot sweet and sour pork chops and the fried pork.
The canteen in thepany offered sweet and sour pork chops, and she liked this dish very much.
When they ate in the canteen together, Lucian noticed this, so he ordered this dish in the restaurant.
Seeing Amelia eat a lot, he was finally relieved.
After the meal, he sent Amelia back.
Along the way, they didn''t say a word to each other, just like how they went to the restaurant.
At the door of Amelia''s house, Amelia looked at Lucian who was pursing his lips slightly and said
with a smile, "Mr. Ronen, I''m home. Thank you so much tonight!"
Lucian looked at her smiling face. Seeing that she had felt much better, he nodded slightly and said,
"Go back and have a good rest." His voice was cold but concerned.
"Okay!" Amelia nodded. As soon as she turned around, she saw her mothering out.
"Amelia, you''re back!" Giselle Macdonald was sick all year round, so she was weak and thin, and
her face was somewhat sallow.
Looking Lucian who was so handsome, she smiled happily.
"Mom, haven''t you... slept yet?" Amelia was a little surprised to see her mother. She should have
slept at this time.
Giselle looked at Amelia''s surprised face and smiled, "Amelia, since you haven''te back, how
can I sleep at ease?"
Amelia couldn''t believe what she had heard. Had Giselle ever cared about whether she got off work
late or early? She only cared about how much money she could earn every month.
If she could save enough money to let Neal get married, Giselle would be happier.
Giselle looked at Lucian with smiling eyes.
However, Lucian was expressionless and indifferent.
Giselle frowned slightly. It could be seen that Lucian was not an ordinary person, but he was too
proud. He actually didn''t greet his future mother-inw.
She looked at Amelia and said a bit unhappily, "Amelia, who is he? Is he your boyfriend? You''ve
never brought a man back before."
Upon hearing the word "boyfriend", Amelia looked at Lucian who had no reaction and exined in a
hurry, "Mom, what are you talking about? This is my workmate, Mr. Ronen. He sent me back
because he was worried about me. He is not my boyfriend."
"Oh, is that so? Is he just your ordinary friend? But I saw him holding your hand and walking out of
the neighbourhood with you." Giselle''s voice became apathetic. Since he was not Amelia''s
boyfriend, why did he ruin Amelia''s reputation? Everyone in the neighbourhood was gossiping that
Amelia had a nice boyfriend.
But he was not her boyfriend. She would be too ashamed to face the neighbours.
Lucian''s face darkened instantly when he saw the changes of Giselle''s expression.
When he inquired about Neal''s affairs, he took the opportunity to know Giselle. She valued Neal
only, and she either scolded or beat Amelia. She didn''t care about Amelia, but she was in poor
health and Amelia supported the whole family kindheartedly.
It seemed that Giselle took what Amelia had done as a matter of course.
He looked at Amelia and said in a deep voice, "I''m leaving. See you tomorrow."
After that, he turned around and left.
Soon, he disappeared into the darkness.
Giselle hit Amelia on the shoulder hard and flew into a rage, "You idiot! Since he''s not your
boyfriend, why did you bring him here? Do you want everyone tough at you?
"Now everyone in the neighbourhood knows that you have a charming boyfriend and you can soon
marry into a rich family. A lot of people came to our house to congratte me, and I epted their
kindness with joy."
"But you told me that he''s not your boyfriend! Do you want to disgrace me?"
