Since She Met Lucian

Chapter 86 Don't You Love Him Very Much

After Sasha left, Amelia kept repeating the words she had said to her. She felt frustrated that she could do nothing.

She felt uneasy. When she returned to the SJ Garden, Amelia wondered if she should make a call to Lucian. On the other hand, she was afraid of interrupting him. In order not to disappoint her, Lily cooked the dinner. She ate a little.

When she went back to the bedroom, she was even more nervous when she saw that Lucian still didn't call her. She wanted to know why he did not call her today?

She kept thinking about what Sasha had said to her today, feeling restless.

Just as she was immersed in her thoughts, her cell phone rang. She thought it was Lucian calling, and she answered it immediately, "Lucian."

"It's me, Amelia." A soft, calm voice resounded from the other end of the line.

"Jonny?" Amelia was so excited that her heart sank when she noticed the caller ID on the screen.

She sounded disappointed, so the person on the other end of the line asked, "Are you waiting for Lucian's call?"

"No... I'm not." She denied with embarrassment.

"He should be very busy these days." Said Jonny on the other end of the phone.

"Jonny, I... Do you know what has happened in the Zhan Group recently?" She didn't know much about it and she thought Jonny should know it.

"Do you have time now? Shall I pick you up? "

"But it's too late now." Amelia was a little hesitant. On the one hand, she wanted to know the situation. On the other hand, she had scruples.

"Don't worry. I just want to take you to the coffee house and have a chat. I will answer your questions one by one." Jonny reassured her.

She agreed and waited for him at the gate. Soon Jonny drove here.

In the tranquil coffee house, the melodious sound of the blue music was echoing around her ears. It was difficult to appease her heart, and she was getting more and more restless.

Jonny ordered a cup of coffee for her. He didn't ask her until the coffee was ready. "It seems that you are absent-minded. Have you heard something?"

Amelia looked up at him with worries on her face, "Jonny, I majored in Chinese and didn't know anything about finance. I heard that the Zhan Group suffered from the decline in the stock market today. Is it true?"

"That's true, but don't worry. Lucian will handle it." Jonny nodded his head and tried to comfort her.

It turned out to be true. Amelia had already been restless, and now she was more anxious.

"Jonny, what can we do to reverse the situation?" Amelia asked eagerly.

"The Zhan Group was just a small company at first, but later developed into a well-known and listed company in two years operated by Lucian, which caused a great sensation in A City..."

Jonny said briefly to Amelia about the general situation of the Zhan Group and analyzed the current situation.

"So the An Group has funded the Zhan Group?" Amelia caught the key words and looked at Jonny hopefully.

Jonny's eyes rolled a little. He skip the words of Amelia and said lightly, "It's late. Let me send you back."

Amelia was about to say something but stopped on a second thought. She looked at the neon outside the window and felt she should go home now.

"Okay." She answered in a low voice.

Before Amelia got off the car, Jonny said to her, "Don't worry too much. There's still hope."

"I know." She believed in Lucian's ability.

The next day when she arrived at the company, Amelia heard all kinds of gossip. The most was that the Zhan Group was now in a bad mood for capital turnover, and it was very likely that it would go bankrupt.

Although some employees deliberately lowered her voice, they wished more to let her know, so she could hear those words easily.

When she returned to her office, Amelia glanced at Lucian's seat and found that he was still not there.

Two days later... Lucian would be back tomorrow.

Last night, he didn't call her. She didn't even have the courage to text him and say hi. She was afraid that it might trigger his unhappy mood.

Almost lunchtime, there was a knock on the office door. Amelia got up to open the door, and was frightened to pale by the two people in front of her.

"I can't believe that you still have time to sit in the office after the big crisis of the Zhan Group!" Fannie blamed Amelia when she saw her.

Nicholas sat in a wheelchair, with a serious face.

"Dad, mom..." She greeted politely, and her brows furrowed tightly out of nervousness.

"Fannie, I asked you to drive me to the Zhan Group, not to criticize Amelia." Nicholas said with a poker face.

"I'm just worried." Walking in front of Nicholas, Fannie gestured with her fingers and said, "Look at her. Except for her silly, what else can she do for the Zhan Group?"

This was the first time for Amelia to agree with Fannie. She buried her head deep in guilt. She couldn't do anything except worrying when the company was in trouble.

"Enough!" Nicholas interrupted Fannie and turned to look at Amelia and asked in a husky voice, "Did Lucian contact you?"

"We do call each other every day except last night." She answered honestly. "Dad, have you contacted Lucian?"

She worried that if she called Lucian, it would affect his mood, so she dared not call him. So she wanted to get more information about Lucian from Nicholas.

Nicholas shook his head and sighed, "No matter what happened to him, he always bears it silently. I just come to ask you about that."

Amelia couldn't believe her ears. She took over her phone and called Lucian.

The phone was connected, but it was not picked up after a long time. Amelia was not reconciled and kept calling until that sweet and apologetic phone rang.

It seemed that Lucian didn't want to be disturbed because his phone was turned off...

To comfort Nicholas, Amelia crouched down in front of him and said, "Dad, rest assured. Lucian will be back tomorrow."

"That's good." Nicholas sighed and looked worried.

Fannie glared at Amelia with burning, reproachful eyes.

"Let's go home." Nicholas said to Fannie who was standing behind him. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

"Nicholas, you should talk to the leader of An family. You can't just rely on Lucian alone." Fannie suggested and said, "Edmund said that he could offer funds to help Lucian through this crisis as long as Lucian can agree with his request."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Nicholas stamped his walking stick angrily.

Hearing that, Amelia seemed to see a glimmer of hope. She asked, "Mom, just now you said that An Group could help the Zhan Group through this crisis?"

"Yes, but Lucian refused his uncle An's request." Fannie said, withdrawing her sharp eyes and sighed.

Looking at the regretful expression on Fannie's face, Amelia couldn't help asking, "Can you tell me what kind of request the An Group makes?"

"Amelia, you'd better keep it a secret. Let's go, Fannie." Nicholas was a little anxious and interrupted Amelia.

The more indifferent he was to her, the more flustered Amelia was.

"Now that she wants to know, just tell her!" Not waiting for Nicholas to stop her, Fannie walked up to Amelia and said in a cold voice, "If Lucian is willing to marry Shelly, An Group will help the Zhan Group through."

After hearing what Fannie said, Amelia was totally shocked and her mind went blank, even though she had just been worried about the difficulty of the Zhan Group.

"Amelia, Lucian didn't say yes. Don't think too much." Worrying that Amelia would be sad, Nicholas tried to comfort her.

"Don't you love Lucian very much? You should think it over carefully which is more important in this situation." Before leaving, Fannie whispered in Amelia's ear.

After they left, the office returned to dead silence. Amelia put her hand over her left chest, trying to endure the pain caused by her broken heart.

Walking out of the building of the Zhan Group, Amelia looked at the buildings located in the downtown area and felt extremely sad. She felt that the tall building might collapse at any time.

She wanted to take a walk alone, so Amelia didn't let Frank send her home.

It was a chilling winter. The trees on both sides of the road were blown with the wind. A gust of cold wind came through her skin, mixing with her inner temperature, like the water in a deep well. She could feel the chilling coldness as soon as she touched it.

The last sentence Fannie uttered echoed in her mind, like a curse that she would never be able to get rid of.

She took out her phone and tried calling Lucian, but his phone was still powered off.

She looked up at the gray sky, feeling confused.

Beep The continuous horn pulled back the consciousness of Amelia. She followed the voice and saw Shelly in a sweet suit walking out of the red Ferrari.

"It's really you! I was about to go to the SJ Garden garden to look for you!" After walking up to the side of Amelia to confirm, Shelly turned her head and hinted her to get in the car.

Thinking of what Fannie had said, she knew what Shelly wanted to say.

In an extremely elegant coffee shop, Shelly and Amelia sat on the opposite side. Both of them seemed to be brewing a kind of emotion, and finally Shelly spoke first.

"You must have heard about the current situation of the Zhan Group, haven't you?" Shelly took a sip of her coffee and said with a faint smile, "Have you made up your mind?"

Amelia didn't expect that Shelly would ask her directly. She was totally in a mess and didn't know what to do.

"If Lucian agrees to the request of An Group, the Zhan Group will definitely get through the hardship?" Amelia found her voice trembling.

"Of course!" After Shelly gave an affirmative answer, Shelly smirked and said, "The alliance between the Zhan Group and the An Group is very powerful in the business field. With this guarantee, the present situation of the Zhan Group can hardly happen again!"
