Addicted To Love - Chapter 273 I Missed You
She didn’t know if Sasha was only acting brash and ambitious in front of her, but right now, she looked incredibly pitiful, innocent, and weak. ‘Has she always acted like this… in front of him?’ she thought, stunned.
Lucian had seen what kind of person Sasha was before. Because of that, he only felt two things towards her: hate and loathing.
“But… the thing between you and Amelia… hasn’t been resolved yet, right? I guess I’ll just… talk about it next time…” Sasha said, trying her hardest to appear like a reasonable person. Her true intention, however, was to convince Lucian.
Unfortunately for her, Lucian was not interested in pursuing the matter. “Don’t ever show up here in SJ Garden again if you have nothing important to say or do,” he said coldly, not even looking at Sasha.
With the impersonal and sharp tone that Lucian was using, everyone who heard it was sure that it was a warning—and not even a very kind one at that.
Perhaps it was because Amelia was already irritated by how Lucian was acting that she wasn’t able to stop herself from speaking out, “No one will ever come look for you if it is not important. You know that!”
Had this whole debacle happened in the past, Amelia’s words would have sounded humorous. Now, however, she sounded very unhappy. More importantly, she spoke for Sasha.
Lucian didn’t understand. No matter how wrong he had been, Amelia would never choose to take Sasha’s side in an attempt to counter him.
“Amelia, please stop,” Sasha begged, fear evident in her voice. “Lucian is in a very bad mood today.”
“I don’t care!” Amelia shouted. “Some people just have the same mood as the June weather. I know that you can wait, but the baby inside of you can’t!” With that, Amelia had pledged her allegiance to Sasha’s side of the argument.
But she kne
by Fannie’s actions. He began to cry, but Lily was quick to comfort him.
Seeing what happened to Mark, Lily got more angry. “Of course I know who I am!” she hissed back. “But I guess someone else hasn’t find her place in here just yet!”
This act of defiance was the last straw for Fannie. She was so angry that she stood up and was preparing to slap Lily to show her who was in charge.
Sasha, however, grabbed Fannie’s hand, persuading in a soft voice, “Auntie, don’t worry. Lily is right. Taking care of Mark is her most important task right now. I can get tea by myself.”
After she finished speaking, Sasha went into the kitchen and poured herself a cup of tea.
That somehow appeased Fannie’s anger. However, she couldn’t help but glare at Lily.
The reason why Sasha had endured Lily’s treatment of her was because she had learned a trick that would surely keep her inside the mansion. Previously, she had left a bad impression on Fannie. This time, however, they were on good terms and were mingling enthusiastically as if they were true family. Because of that, she intended to make a good impression on everyone in the house.
‘A plan that is infallible, ‘ she thought to herself, rejoicing silently.
When Lucian invited her in and shut Amelia out, she became extremely happy. It was a big win for her, and she intended having more.
“By the way, Lily, it’s time for lunch. Why don’t you go to cook?” Fannie once again lazily ordered as she took a sip of coffee.
Lily was already preparing to take Mark to his room to let him sleep, but when she heard Fannie, she once again became very angry.
She knew clearly who she was in that house, but she was becoming more and more irked by Fannie’s arrogance and Sasha’s fakeness. ‘Mrs. Amelia, where are you?’ she thought, missing her more and more.
