Addicted To Love - Chapter 297 Fannie Got A Mental Disease
Lucian expected that Amelia would understand but he thought wrong. Amelia still acted indifferently and held on to past resentments. He was caught in between but couldn’t help being partial to Fannie.
Misunderstanding arose and he was not able to explain in time, which deepened the conflict in Amelia’s heart.
“Amelia, I care about dad as much as you do.” Lucian’s face fell as he said in a low voice.
After hearing Lucian’s words, Amelia felt a sharp pain in her heart for some reason. She couldn’t utter a word and remained silent for a long time.
“Lucian, Amelia, don’t fight because of me. This matter is not a big deal. I understand that your mother has a grudge in her heart. I can help her vent all her anger because it is all my fault.” Nicholas comforted the two trying to lessen the growing tension between them.
Lucian looked at Nicholas and felt sorry for him. He walked towards him and said, “I’ll have the servant bring the first aid box.”
“There is no need. Don’t worry about me.” Nicholas felt warm and responded apologetically.
“Dad, this is caused by his mother. How could you forget that easily?” Amelia suddenly questioned. She was angry and couldn’t keep her silence anymore.
On the other hand, Lucian was stumped at Amelia’s sudden outburst. What she said was indeed true and he couldn’t argue back. With a shudder from his back, he left the room without saying anything.
Amelia didn’t do anything to appease him and just let him leave. She knew she had blurted out something hurtful but also regretted it in the end.
“Amelia, I can see that Lucian loves you very much.” Nicholas was already feeling conflicted and reasoned out to Amelia as soon as Lucian left.
Amelia at the moment was pouring water for him. She just smiled as if nothing happened and responded in a calm voice, “Dad, I understand. I know that I have been impulsive but you said it was normal for a husband and wife to quarrel. It’s going to be fine soon.”
Nicholas smiled warmly at her daughter’s words.
Ameli
d a phone call from Lily.
Lily grumbled on the phone saying that she missed her. Amelia felt sad listening to her and said, “We’ll be back in a few days.”
“No, Her Ladyship is too weird, I can’t take it any more…” Lily complained on the phone.
“What did you say?” If Amelia didn’t guess wrong, the person that Lily talked about should be Fannie.
As soon as Lily realized that she had said something wrong, she immediately corrected herself. “What I mean is that since you don’t come back I have a really hard time every day…”
“Lily, don’t change the topic. Tell me, is mom in the SJ Garden?” She didn’t think Lily would hide anything from her.
Lily lowered her voice and answered with great care, “Mr. Lucian asked me not to tell you about it. The next day you moved in the Zhan mansion, Mr. Lucian took Mrs. Fannie to the SJ Garden.”
After listening to this, Amelia’s heart missed a beat.
That is to say, after a fight with Nicholas that day, Lucian had taken Fannie to the SJ Garden.
Their conversation about Fannie having mental disease wasn’t true. It was just an excuse for Fannie to escape.
Amelia still remembered that Lucian didn’t like it when others lied to him. She felt enraged. Did he ever think that what he did contradicted his own words? When he lied to her, his lie was just like an awl to hurt her heart.
Last night, she asked him about his opinion whether to continue living in the Zhan mansion or move back to the SJ Garden where she used to live. However, he didn’t give an answer and now she understood.
He was actually hiding the truth about knowing that Fannie was all along in the SJ Garden.
This time, Lucian had already left to work. After hearing what Lily had revealed, she wanted to confront him and make everything clear.
Nicholas was already recovering well. Amelia stood at the door of the study and looked at him. Seeing that he was busy with his painting and not wanting to disturb him, she told the servants a few things and drove to the Zhan Group directly.
