Since She Met Lucian
Chapter 6 Let Bygones Be Bygones
As a lesson from her drunkenness, Amelia decided she wasn't going to believe everything Lucian said which she thought was reasonable.
"Why are you staring at me? Just order the food." He stared at Amelia who seemed mad.
"Stop talking." Amelia sat down with her hand on her forehead. She was a mess right now as her head was still spinning from everything that happened this morning.
"All right. After dinner, I'll take you to the mall. If you don't want to go shopping, just tell me your sizes and I'll ask someone to buy some clothes for you." After the dishes were served on the table, Lucian took his chopsticks and began eating.
'My sizes?'
Amelia hugged herself immediately and said warily, "I have my own clothes to wear. You don't need to worry about me!"
Lucian looked up and said in a mocking tone, "No one would steal your clothes even if you threw them out in the trash. Since you're now my wife, you need to change your clothes. What you have right now is too shabby and people might talk."
"No one's going to laugh as long as you don't tell on us!" While she really wasn't in the mood to eat, she had no choice but to take her anger out on the food in front of her.
When Lucian saw that Amelia was already gobbling up her food, he frowned. He then handed her a cup of tea and said, "Slow down. It'll be embarrassing if you suddenly choke on your food."
While one would think that what Lucian did was very sweet, what he said definitely wasn't.
Amelia took the cup, rolled her eyes at Lucian, and said crossly, "You're always embarrassing me. How are we ever going to do this?"
She then recalled the photos and started growing angry again.
"Yes, why wouldn't you just tell me your sizes now that you've already been feeling so embarrassed? Besides, it is your ex-boyfriend that embarrassed you. You wouldn't ever go out of your way to do something for him, right?" Lucian said in a deceivingly gentle tone. Still, his words hit Amelia like a bus.
But then she realized that she shouldn't feel sad about Jasper cheating on her anymore. She shouldn't punish herself by dwelling on the past.
"That's right!" She wasn't as angry anymore and was taking time in eating her food now.
After dinner, Lucian took Amelia to go shopping in the department store that was more expensive than most.
