Addicted To Love - Chapter 304 Lucian's Jealousy
Lucian nodded with a smile and then winked at Amelia.
A wink that meant, “Well done, honey!”
But Amelia was not done yet. “Courtney, your words before were way more disgusting than mine. And if you want to know why I’m so different now, it’s all thanks to my husband, Lucian!” Amelia said proudly with a slight pout on her lips.
And she didn’t mean to hurt Lucian. But Kent and Courtney laughed loudly at her words anyway.
“Lucian, I didn’t expect you to be such a romantic. No wonder I’m so jealous of Amelia!” Courtney took the opportunity to jest at Lucian. It was like kicking a man while he’s down.
Amelia’s face turned red. She suddenly felt that she dug a hole for Lucian. She turned to him with an apologetic look but was surprised to see him in a very calm state.
“Well, why don’t we all sit down while we talk,” Kent suggested, interrupting their merry jesting. He ushered them to the seats in the living room with his open hand.
“My tummy is getting bigger. It’s now a challenge for me to just move around,” Courtney complained after she sat down. The mere act of sitting down seemed like a tedious activity for her. She sighed deeply once she was seated.
Amelia comforted her since she had experienced something similar. “Don’t worry, your body will start to adapt to it as you get closer to the month when you’ll deliver your baby.”
“I think you are right. Good thing it’s cooler here,” Courtney said as she relaxed. Soon, she was smiling happily. “I really hope I can have a son so that I don’t need to have a second child!” she said in a hopeful tone.
Amelia turned to her and said with a jesting smile, “You are so old-fashioned. I thought you don’t have any preference. That you’re OK whether it’s a boy or a girl?”
Courtney sighed and explained, “It’s not real
alk about with Lucian. But since she was not used to this kind of situation, she thought that her question was not really a good choice.
“What if I tell you that I’m full? Will you feel disappointed?” Lucian stepped on the brake without warning and then unbuckled his seat belt when the car had come to a complete halt. He then leaned forward towards Amelia until the distance between them was only a few millimeters.
Amelia eyes were opened wide in astonishment. The sight of Lucian’s handsome face made her cheeks flush and her heart beat fast.
“Why would I be disappointed?” she asked in a soft tone of voice. She blinked her eyes and felt too nervous to move.
“Courtney said those words to see my reaction, didn’t she?” Lucian whispered in Amelia’s ear. His voice felt like he was saying something sweet to her.
She never expected that Lucian would figure out Courtney’s game. This made her feel a little guilty and she almost regretted agreeing to Courtney’s idea.
A sudden smile on Lucian’s face surprised Amelia. “Since you have achieved your goal, I will cook braised pork for you tonight,” Lucian suddenly said.
Amelia was stunned and it took a long time before she could react.
When she saw that Lucian was serious, she shook her head. “Don’t be childish. You don’t have to do this.”
“No, no. Don’t worry, Mrs. Amelia. I’m not going to burn the meat,” Lucian said as he bent forward while saying the words. Their face were so close to each other as he spoke that she could smell the mint from his breath. Before she could do or say anything, his lips were already on her lips and then down to her neck.
When she arrived at the Zhan mansion, a message from Courtney arrived. She messaged that Lucian still cared about her very much since his face was dark while he ate.
