Chapter 1072


    In fact, her mother wished she could marry a rich man so that she could get enough money to


    support Neal to get married.


    How could she not know what her mother was thinking?


    She knew about it clearly, but she couldn''t bear to refuse her mother.


    Lucian said, "If you''re too softhearted, you''ll always be hurt and live in sorrow, but no one will care


    about you! Do you want to live such a life?"


    Amelia suddenly looked up at him. At the moment, he could see her through.


    She pursed her lips slightly and smiled bitterly, "Do I have the right to choose? As I grow up, I


    be more sensible, and my life bes harder. In this world, what hurts my heart is not only


    family affection." She raised her head and looked at Lucian bravely, "But also... something in the


    name of love."


    Lucian narrowed his eyes slightly. Something in the name of love?


    He lowered his head slightly and didn''t speak.


    At this time, he was experiencing a maelstrom of churning emotions inside.


    Harm in the name of love.


    What did it mean to him?


    Seeing him lower his head, Amelia felt so painful and disappointed in heart.


    Since he didn''t like her, how could she brace herself to be with him?


    She picked up the bag beside her and stood up to look at him, "Thank you for treating me to dinner


    tonight. I''ll go back first."


    She turned around and was about to leave.


    Lucian reached out to pull her, and then she fell into his arms.


    "Ah... "


    Smelling his familiar and pleasant smell, Amelia panicked.


    "Lucian, what are you doing?"


    She looked up at him with a puzzled face, and her whole body was trembling. It was the first time


    that they had been so close to each other.


    Lucian''s cold eyes turned intense and affectionate. He lowered his head and stared at her flustered


    face quietly, but he did not say a word.


    "Lucian..."


    Before Amelia could finish her words, Lucian lowered her head and kissed her on the lips.


    Amelia opened her eyes wide and looked at him in disbelief.


    However, she epted his kiss soon. She loved him and had been looking forward such a night,


    and it really happened...


    The next day.


    Eden arrived at the office. Seeing that Amelia had note to work, she did not think much and


    cleaned up the office casually.


    There was no morning conference, so she started a day''s work.


    As soon as she turned on theputer, Victor walked in with a ss of warm water.


    Eden smiled, "What''s wrong?"


    Victor took a look at Amelia''s seat and smiled, "Lucian doesn''te to work, neither does Amelia.


    Last night, they lived in Marriott Hotel."


    "Oh!" Eden was very surprised, and then she grinned immediately, "Why does their rtionship


    develop so fast?"


    Victor put the water in front of her, "I heard that Amelia had been going on blinds dates in the past


    few days. Lucian must be worried when he heard that."


    "Oh, Amelia didn''t tell me about the blind dates. She obviously likes Lucian, but why did she go on


    blind dates?" Eden couldn''t figure it out.


    Victor shook his head slightly, "It''s hard to exin the rtionship. Eden, I''ll go to the north district


    later. Originally, Lucian was supposed to go with me. I''m afraid that he won''te to work today. I


    have to go there alone. I''ve ordered your lunch and snacks for you, and I''lle back to pick you


    up in the afternoon."


    Eden nodded with a smile, "I can work here alone. You don''t have to worry about me. Be careful on


    the road ande back early."


    "Okay!" Victor lowered his head and kissed her forehead. Then, he gave her a loving look, "Honey, I


    love you!"


    Victor said with a smile, lowered his head and kissed her lips gently before he left with satisfaction.


    "Victor." Eden stopped him.


    Victor had walked to the door. Hearing this, he stopped and turned to look at her with a tender


    smile.


    Eden smiled and said, "I love you too!"


    Victor said, "Eden, I can''t bear to leave you now."


    "Ha-ha... Go ahead. Drive slowly and don''t make haste toe back. I''ll wait for you in the


    company."


    "Okay!" Victor smiled and turned to leave.


    Eden smiled faintly and felt a little disconste in heart.


    It was as if he had taken away her heart when he left.


    Eden felt a little uneasy, but she didn''t think too much. Perhaps it was because he rarely left her like


    this during this period of time.


    At the same time, Ma, who was working in thepany, suddenly received a phone call from


    Neal.


    Ma frowned slightly and answered the phone.


    "Didn''t I tell you not to call me?"


    "Bad news! They''ve found what we did, and the police are searching for me everywhere."


    "What? Didn''t I ask you to go abroad? Where are you now?" Ma roared angrily.


    "The money you gave me is not enough for me to go abroad. I''ve spent a lot of money on hiding


    myself these days. If you don''t want me to betray you, transfer another sum of money to me


    immediately. I don''t want to go to jail."


    "B*stard! Isn''t the enough money for you to go abroad?" Ma didn''t expect that something bad


    would happen at this time.


    He watched Victor drive out alone.


    He knew Victor''s schedule. That day, he had a very important meeting in the Marketing Department


    in the north district.


    Ma asked, "Where are you now?"


    "I''ve fled back to River City, and I''m in the north district now."


    "Really?" Ma looked at the direction in which Victor left.


    He sneered and said, "Call your younger sister. Tell her that you are there and ask her to help you. I


    can''t help you."


    "Why should I call her? She can''t do anything to help me."


    Maughed and said, "Don''t you know that she is working in Alwynn Group? Alwynn Group


    and Clement Group are rted, and they are all looking for you. If they find you, you''ll be done for."


    "It''s all your fault!" Neal roared madly.


    Ma smiled, "You can''t me me. Just me yourself for being greedy."


    "Whether you believe it or not, I''ll tell the police what you have done immediately. Anyway, I''ve been


    detained several times, so I''m not afraid."


    His threatening voice did not scare Ma.


    "It''s up to you. Without evidence, who will believe what you say?"


    N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.


    "You..."


    "If you have nothing else to say, I''ll hang up. I have other things to do."


    Ma hung up quickly.


    He had been tracking Victor''s car.


    "Victor, the sea in the north district is very beautiful. It''ll be the ce that you die." Victor''s car was


    rted to hisputer. He could control the car''s braking system. Even if Victor drove at a very


    slow speed, he could turn over the car.


    Therefore, Lucian couldn''t find anything suspicious after checking his cars for two days.


    Lucian did not know about such aputer skill.
