Addicted To Love - Chapter 318 I Am Ashamed To Be Your Brother

“So, you still want to kill me even though we’re brothers?” Jonny’s eyes widened with a fake innocent expression, but his question was all too provocative.

Lucian smiled disapprovingly. “You wouldn’t even be alive to ask that if it were up to me.”

Last night was a nightmare for Amelia. Lucian was beset with guilt; he had forgiven Jonny time and again, but that decision had seriously harmed Amelia.

Now, he did not intend to let Jonny get away with it.

With a snort, Jonny stared at Lucian and said, “In that case, I have nothing to be afraid of.”

Despite this outward show of confidence, Jonny was, in fact, extremely worried.

He did say that he did not give a damn about the An Group, but it was, in fact, his shield. Without the An Group, all of his efforts over the months would go down the drain.

The company was a powerful tool against his father. Without it, his father would be able to fight back and return to the An Group. He would still be on the losing end.

Lucian just had to pinpoint his weak spot.

“Well, you have your work cut out for you. You can just wait to clean up the mess created by the An Group.” Lucian snorted. Then, he turned toward his men and instructed, “Untie him and wait until he returns to the An Group. I’m sure the mess would have blown up by now.”

Jonny knew that in addition to massive financial resources, the Zhan Group had accumulated a spotless reputation in the business world over the years. He knew that if Lucian wanted to take the An Group down, the company would not stand a chance.

However, she knew how much Jonny hated Lucian. Jonny may use the information in his arsenal to hurt Lucian.

An inebriated Lucian stumbled into the house near midnight.

Amelia had been waiting for him in the living room all night. At the sound of door opening, she leaped to her feet immediately in time to see Lucian, who was weaving left and right, stumble and fall. She hurried forward and asked in concern, “Lucian, are you okay?”

“Go away!” Lucian, who was enveloped in a cloud of smoke and alcohol, held up a hand and slurred in disgust, “Liar! Liars, every single one of you!”

Amelia stopped in her tracks and stared at him, stunned. She saw Lucian struggling to get back on his feet, so she approached him again to assist him.

Maybe due to inebriation or annoyance, Lucian pushed Amelia away in disgust as soon as she approached him.

Amelia’s position on the stairway was precarious, and Lucian’s repeated attempts to ward her off put her at risk of falling. However, she did not feel anger toward him; she was concerned that Lucian may end up hurting himself because of how unsteady he was. She carefully walked up to him like she was approaching a wounded animal and threw one of Lucian’s arms around her shoulders, gently supporting him.
