Since She Met Lucian Chapter 83 Everyone Has An Ex

Filled with embarrassment and left with nothing to say, Jasper covered his face with his fingers and
gave a glance at Amelia. Then he asked her in a frigid voice, "Amelia, should we rent the house we
rented before?"

Amelia suddenly stopped peeling the orange that she was about to eat. She looked at Jasper with a
puzzled look and thought to herself, 'Why would he bring up the past right now? And why did he
include me in his plans?'

This made Amelia subconsciously look at Lucian and saw that he was still drinking his tea as usual.
Lucian noticed Amelia glaring at him. He then smiled at her and said, "I'll go to your bedroom to rest,
also so that you two can talk clearly."

"What?" Amelia asked. She didn't expect that Lucian would just stand up and leave her alone with
Jasper. This made her wonder if he was angry at her.

"Has the landlord returned the 2000 dollars he owed you?" Jasper timidly asked right after Lucian left.
His eyes looked around anxiously.

Amelia felt amused but still chose to show a straight face. She didn't expect Jasper to ask about the
money. But at the same time, it was a good thing that she didn't have to owe him anything anymore.

"How about give me your Alipay account? I'll give it to you when I come home later," Amelia bluntly
replied.

Upon hearing this, Jasper's face frowned. He pleaded with Amelia. "I'm tight on money right now, can
you please lend me some?"

She remembered Jasper as a man who was always full of excitement and vigor. But now, as a man
who borrowed money without any hesitation.



Amelia's straight face turned into a dismissive one then she replied, "I'm sorry, Mr. Jasper. I can't be of
any help to you." She didn't mind if people thought of her as an overly prudent woman nor as a person
that didn't care for others. She just didn't want to be involved with Jasper and his extremely
unreasonable partner, Yolanda.

"Amelia, even though we are no longer lovers, we should at least remain as a family, right?" Jasper
begged once again with a gloomy look on his face.

Amelia was unmoved by his expression and words. She looked at him with cold, glaring eyes as she bit
her lips tightly.

Perhaps in the eyes of Jasper, Amelia was still kind and softhearted. No matter how many problems he
would cause her, she would always be there to help him out. However, he didn't expect her to have
changed so much.

"Ha-ha, you've changed. There really is a big difference between the rich and the poor," Jasper uttered.
Jasper's frown and pleading face changed to a grimacing smile. He leisurely laid down on the sofa and
stared at Amelia.

'It seems that birds of the same feather, really do flock together,' Amelia thought to herself. She
remembered how Jasper was in the past. He never gave anyone such a dismissive look. Ever since he
got together with Yolanda, it became such a bad habit of his.

She ignored his crude sarcasm and continued to sip her tea.

Yolanda was currently taking a nap, this is why Jasper dared to come to the living room and talk with
Amelia. But he didn't expect Sophia to come downstairs. Upon seeing the two of them, Sophia went to
Jasper and pointed straight at his face then shouted, "What are you doing here? Why don't you go
back to Yolanda's room and accompany her!"



Sophia's loud yell reverberated all throughout the building. Everybody went downstairs to check on
what was happening.

Lucian arrived at the living room first, then Yolanda followed by Vernon. Now everyone was all gathered
in the same room together.

Everyone except for Lucian and Vernon stared maliciously at Amelia. As if they were prepared for a
fight to happen.

"Honey, did we wake you up?" Jasper nervously asked. He then stood up and reached out to Yolanda
but was pushed away by her. Seemingly full of agitation.

"Jasper, I was wondering why you weren't in our room, now I know it was because you were catching
up with your ex-girlfriend!" Yolanda furiously yelled at Jasper.

"Watch your words Yolanda!" Amelia shouted in retaliation.

She already knew that Yolanda would jump on the opportunity to cause chaos but she didn't expect her
to say such harsh words.

"I know exactly what you're trying to do Amelia. You're jealous of me being with Jasper so you use this
chance as a way to separate us!" Yolanda endlessly pestered her.

Yolanda's words only annoyed Amelia. Her baseless accusations didn't make much sense to her. It
was now Amelia's turn to say something. And with a cold glare towards Yolanda, Amelia spoke proudly,
"You don't have to say such things if you trust your husband. Did he cheat on you or something? Is that
why you're being so persistent?"

Sophia was about to say something but hearing Amelia's words stunned her.



In the past, no matter how much Amelia was picked on or bullied, she would never dare to fight back.
But today, she fought back with just a few words and managed to inflict immense pain on both Yolanda
and Sophia.

Upon hearing Amelia's words, a smile went up on Lucian's stoic face. He knew that he didn't need to
say anything. He believed Amelia could handle on her own against Yolanda.

Lucian's phone suddenly rang. He answered, and after the call, Lucian told Amelia, "I just got a call
from Courtney. She told me that she wanted home-cooked meals made by you. She also said that she
would meet you at SJ Garden. I already agreed. Let's go?" Lucian then affectionately held Amelia's
hand.

Amelia immediately figured out what Lucian meant. She no longer wanted to stay at that house. She
nodded her head at Lucian and then said to Vernon with a seemingly forced smile, "Dad, we have to go
now. I'll come back to see you when I'm free."

Knowing that Amelia didn't want to stay in such an awkward situation, Vernon agreed to their plan and
accompanied them to the door. He watched and waited until they got into their car and drove off. When
they were no longer in sight, he reluctantly went back inside the house.

Looking back at the house through the rear-view mirror of the car, the sadness and tears that Amelia
held back slowly started to show.

Lucian immediately noticed Amelia's sadness. He suddenly stopped the car and held her hand to
comfort her. Then he reassured her, "You don't have to worry about the things they said. I know you're
used to their abusive words but we know it holds no truth."

But Amelia didn't care about their harsh words. It was Vernon, her father, who she was worried about.



After Iris passed away, Vernon was the only family member she had left. Although she hated him so
much at that time, she felt so sorry and guilty when she saw that he was in such poor health.

"I'm fine honestly. I'm grateful that you were there to help me out just now," Amelia said. Amelia wiped
away the tears on her face and tried her best to forget the sadness that surrounded her.

"Honey, it's my duty as your husband," Lucian confidently replied with a smirk on his face. Lucian didn't
want to see his wife be bullied by others. What just happened deepened his understanding of Amelia's
position in their household.

With this realization, he acknowledged the fact that if he could not protect his wife, he was indeed
utterly useless.

Amelia suddenly remembered Lucian leaving her alone with Jasper earlier. So she asked, "By the way,
why did you leave me alone to talk with him?" Amelia was worried that she angered Lucian in some
way.

"Because I trust you," Lucian casually replied.

Even though Amelia's eyes still had tears, upon hearing those words, she could now smile happily and
lovingly look at Lucian's face.

Upon arriving at SJ Garden. Amelia thought that meeting Courtney here was just an excuse to leave
but a few moments later, to her surprise, she arrived.

Dressed in a big red coat and a short black skirt, Courtney looked so cute and cheerful.

"Isn't it so convenient to marry a rich man Amelia? Lucian sent a car just to pick me up. My father
asked me where I was about to go and I told him about the situation with the Zhan Group so he invited
you to come to our house!" Courtney blissfully said.



Amelia smiled and thought about Courtney's offer but chose to decide about it later. She made her
some tea and realized that the villa was a lot more exciting due to Courtney's liveliness.

Seeing how happy Courtney looked made Amelia much happier. She tried her best to avoid any topic
involving Kent and only asked what she did and ate at the Spring Festival.

These casual, little conversations with Courtney made Amelia feel like they were back in college again.

Lucian decided to give some spare time to the two women. After greeting Courtney, he went right to his
study. Right after Lucian left, Courtney playfully whispered to Amelia, "I'm so jealous. I'll never be able
to find a good man like Lucian these days."

Hearing this made Amelia feel dignified. But she still humbly replied, "I'm sure it's only because he's
good-looking."

This made Amelia remember how hard it was to be with Lucian when they first started. She couldn't get
used to his unpredictably cold mood but after a while, she realized that he only acted like that with
unfamiliar people. The truth was that he was very easy to get along with once you got to know him.

"I have something to tell you Amelia. I went on a blind date yesterday," Courtney suddenly said in the
middle of their conversation.

"It was New Year's Eve yesterday, wasn't it? How did you go on a blind date during the Spring
Festival?" Amelia asked.

"Do you think I'm willing to do that? My family and the Shang family have been friends for generations.
Yesterday, his whole family suddenly paid a visit to our house, and I met the extraordinary young
master, Mr. Shang," Courtney gleefully explained. There was no hint of displeasure while Courtney was
telling her story but when she mentioned Mr. Shang's name, her face blushed a rosy pink.



"What happened after you met him?" Amelia asked and looked at Courtney curiously, hoping that all
the pain caused by Kent was gone. And that she was finally ready to start a new relationship.

"He's a year younger than me, but he acts very maturely. He behaves like a gentleman and I think he
has a good impression of me," Courtney explained while blushing and trying to hide her
embarrassment.

"So you mean there's a chance?" Amelia asked. Amelia's excitement surpassed her best friends. She
held Courtney's hands and said, "If you think there's a chance, try to date him for a while. He may be
your Mr. Right!"

Courtney thought of her friend's encouraging words and nodded. She couldn't hide her happiness and
said, "You're right! If I don't explore the world, how can I encounter the wonderful things it has to offer."

Amelia's happiness for her friend left her speechless. She held just Courtney's hands.

At noon, Amelia went to the kitchen and prepared lunch for them. When she had finished, she called
Courtney to the table. While Courtney was eating on the side, Amelia went upstairs to tell Lucian that
lunch was ready.

The door of the study was half open. Amelia politely knocked on the door. But she couldn't help herself
to look through the slight gap of the door. She saw Lucian even from a faraway hastily trying to collect
envelopes.

This kind of situation had already happened three times.

She pretended not to see it and said, "Lucian, it's time for lunch."

Lucian stood up and walked towards Amelia. He hugged her tightly and softly uttered the words,
"Thank you for your hard work."



Amelia shook her head in embarrassment. Though she wanted to stay in his embrace longer, it was not
nice to leave Courtney alone downstairs. So she told Lucian, "Let's go. The food is ready."

"Wow, you're such a good cook, Amelia!" Courtney praised Amelia and then told Lucian, "You're so
lucky you married Amelia!"
