Since She Met Lucian Chapter 49 An Embarrassing Triangle

"Mr. Lucian, please take Mrs. Amelia home first. I'll handle the rest," Eric, Lucian's assistant, offered.
He had just arrived and kindly offered to help.

Lucian opened his thin lips and said coldly, "Teach him a lesson!"

With that, Lucian left with Amelia.

When they got on the car, Amelia felt less nervous. Since Lucian wasn't saying anything, she decided
to do the same.

"You should ask Frank to drive you," Lucian said after a long pause.

She scratched the car the first time she drove it. While she wanted to refuse him, she knew she had no
choice but to reluctantly agree.

"Sorry, I broke your car..." she said guiltily.

Your car... She always made sure to distinguish what was his and hers.

Lucian was inexplicably angry. He asked coldly, "You think just saying sorry is enough?" He was at a
very important meeting when he found out that she was late. Worried, he called her to ask her what
was going on. As expected, she was very uneasy.

He intended to pound on her a little more but he didn't expect that she'd be so bad at driving that she
couldn't even run up a slope.

"I'll just pay for the repair fees, okay?" Sadly, her bank account was practically empty. That was all she
could offer.



Lucian noticed how aggrieved Amelia was already. He didn't have the heart to continue making things
difficult for her. "It's fine. You don't have to do that. Just make dinner tonight."

Upon giving it more thought, he concluded that her cooking was the only thing that could make him feel
better now.

Cook? That's not a big deal at all!

Amelia relaxed right away. She nodded with a smile. "I'll go to the grocery after work."

She was only obedient because she knew she made a mistake. Despite being happy, Lucian remained
stoic.

Amelia eyed him and noticed the cold look on his face. Thinking he was angry, she bit her lower lip and
said in guilt after a long pause, "So yesterday..."

"Amelia, don't mention it. I came because to everyone else, you're my wife. That means it's my
responsibility to protect you," Lucian interrupted her coldly. He gave her no chance to apologize.

He spoke conclusive so Amelia decided to shut her mouth.

Still, why did she feel so lost?

When they arrived at the Zhan Group, Lucian left his coat and went straight to the meeting room.

Since she was Lucian's assistant, she was in charge of cleaning up after him. However, he didn't give
her any tasks before leaving. Still, she knew she had to keep herself busy because he was still paying
her a salary after all.

She didn't need to help in cleaning the office because there was a specific cleaner responsible for
doing that.



Upon noticing that the documents on Lucian's desk were a bit messy, she decided to sort them out.
She didn't recognize most of these documents but what she could recognize were the signatures at the
bottom.

It was Lucian... The minute she thought of Lucian, a smile immediately appeared on her face and her
heart started beating rapidly.

And his handwriting seemed familiar to her.

She shook her head as she felt she was thinking too much about Lucian already.

Bang! Bang! Bang! There was a knock on the door so Amelia hurriedly answered it. She'd assumed
that the meeting was over however when she saw who was knocking, she froze.

"Amelia?" Sasha had a mischievous look on her face. She then covered her mouth with her hand as if
she too was shocked.

Sasha was, no doubt, sexy. The red dress she wore today accentuated her figure very well.

The faint smile that played on her lips coupled with the delicate make-up she had on her face made her
look intimidating.

She walked into the office gracefully and looked around. When she realized that Lucian wasn't there,
she turned and asked, "Where's Lucian?"

"Well... Mr. Lucian's in a meeting right now..." Amelia then offered, "Miss Sasha, please have a seat
while you wait."

Raising her eyebrows, Sasha pouted her lips. She joked, "Come on, Amelia. Don't act like you're the
hostess here."



Amelia's face froze then she answered awkwardly, "No, I mean, the CEO isn't here. As his assistant,
it's my job to entertain you while he isn't back yet." Then she made a cup of tea for Sasha.

Sasha took the cup and thanked her politely. After taking a sip, she frowned and asked, "Why is it so
bitter?"

"Oh, I'm sorry. I used the tea I have in here. I was afraid I would doze off while at work so I made it like I
would for myself..." Amelia frowned in embarrassment and scolded herself for being so careless.

Anger was written all over Sasha's face. "You're just an assistant," she said, a little annoyed.

Technically, she was saying that Amelia wasn't doing a good job.

"Mr. Lucian has good tea. Let me make another one for you." With an apologetic look, Amelia took her
cup with the intention of making her another one.

"Forget it. You're careless. How would you even know how to make good tea?" Sasha stood up, took
the cup from Amelia and sneered, "It's not easy to make good tea, you know."

Upon noticing the tea set Lucian had in his lounge, Sasha pursed her lips with a smile and said,
"Lucian's the type to be very particular about his lifestyle. See, he has his own tea set here. That's how
well I know him."

Sasha cocked her eyebrows; her eyes gleaming as a smug smile played on her lips.

It was only then that Amelia noticed the tea set in Lucian's lounge.

Sasha sat down before the tea set. She took out the porcelain bowl, added hot water, washed it and
made the tea... She wasn't only beautiful but she was also smart.

Amelia looked at Sasha with admiration.



"Amelia, it's not easy to be the CEO's assistant." Slowly, Sasha savored the tea as she took a sip. She
cast a glance at Amelia and said with a smile, "It's not surprising. You haven't been with Lucian for a
long time. After all, we've known each other for so many years."

Sasha finally arrived at her point. She knew that even though Amelia was Lucian's wife, there was no
love between them.

"Thank you, Miss Sasha, I've learned a lot," Amelia said sincerely, a warm smile on her face.

Sasha wasn't going to just give up. The sarcastic remarks were out of her mouth before she knew it.

Amelia had taken what Sasha wanted the most. How could Sasha remain calm in her presence?

"As the saying goes, birds of the same feathers flock together. In a desperate attempt to prove your
status as Lucian's wife, you have to exert so much effort." A disdainful smile crept up in Sasha's red
lips.

Was that what she wanted? To be married to Lucian? Amelia didn't think so.

"Miss Sasha, I didn't marry him for his status." Amelia smiled.

Sasha snorted, squinted at her, and said sarcastically, "Don't tell me you're in love with Lucian!"

Sasha knew that Amelia and Lucian had known each other for only a short time and that there must be
some other reason behind their marriage.

Lucian was a man of principle. He was very careful about love and marriage. If only he didn't have to
think about his responsibilities, he wouldn't have married a girl he barely knew.

Before Amelia could say something, a cold voice came from outside. "Sasha, what are you doing
here?"



Amelia suddenly turned only to find Lucian standing there.

She averted his gaze. "I'll leave you two alone. Enjoy."

Lucian glanced at Amelia and said indifferently, "You're my assistant. It's your job to greet my guests for
me."

"You're right, but Miss Sasha is your girlfriend!" Amelia replied.

Lucian froze upon hearing this.

"Amelia, what do you mean? Lucian and I..." Seeing the shift on Lucian's face, Sasha quickly took the
chance to remove the blame from her and transfer it to Amelia.

Noticing Lucian's displeasure, Amelia hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Miss Sasha, I... I meant,
you're friends and..."

Lucian put on a mocking smile when he noticed the nervousness on Amelia's face.

"Amelia, you really are such an interesting woman!" Standing in front of Amelia, Sasha took her hand
and said with a smile, "Thank you, Amelia. When you cooked porridge for me last time, I didn't get
stomach indigestion anymore."

Sasha suddenly became very enthusiastic as if she and Amelia were old friends.

Amelia flushed in response to this sudden friendliness.

"Sasha, we need to work," Lucian said seriously.

Sasha was surprised. Realizing that she was holding Amelia's hand, she let go of it immediately and
held Lucian's arm. She said happily, "Lucian, I heard that the Zhan Group is recruiting new staff so I
came here to visit."



Seeing them standing together intimately, Amelia had mixed feelings. She tried to look away so that
she would feel better.

"You should go to the personnel department then for an interview." With that, he removed Sasha's grip
in his arm and glanced at Amelia.

A cloud of embarrassment crept over Sasha's face. Smiling bashfully, she said, "I just heard that
Amelia worked here. I came here to thank her for cooking porridge for me last time."

Sasha knew what kind of person Lucian was. She wouldn't dare piss him off so she changed the
subject to Amelia.

Amelia was smart. She knew very well that Sasha came here for Lucian and not her. Otherwise, why
else would she ask where Lucian was?

However, Amelia had no plans of bringing this up. She smiled shyly and said, "You're welcome."

"Well, you've already thanked her. You can leave now. We have work to do," Lucian said coldly. He
grew upset upon glimpsing the tea set.

Sasha grabbed the opportunity to ask Lucian out. She put on a charming smile and said, "Hey, Lucian.
It's almost lunch time. Would you like to have lunch with me?"
