Hearing that there was some drama going on, Dean, who was about to go to the restroom, immediately sat back down and pretended to look at his computer.
Miss Amelia did not come to work today, but Lucian's father and elder brother came.
Dean knew that something must have happened.
He surely wanted to find out what was going on.
It seemed that the two brothers had experienced some hard times recently.
Dean laughed in his heart.
No wonder they were brothers.
Lucian shot a sharp glance at Benson.
He knew that he could not hide for a long time.
Had they already met Amelia earlier according to her uncommon reaction today?
His eyes suddenly turned gloomy as he looked at Benson. "You've met her, haven't you?"
Benson smiled and tilted his head slightly to look at his angry brother. "Yes, I've met her. She's really beautiful. No wonder you like her. I don't think there would be any man who doesn't like her. However, her background is not that good. If she was from a better family, then everything would be perfect." Benson looked at Lucian with an evil smile.
Looking at Lucian's angry face, he believed that Lucian was really in love with her.
"What did you do to her?" Lucian asked furiously. He was so angry that he could feel his muscles grew tense.
Benson laughed. "She's just an ordinary girl. What can I do to her?" Even though he wanted to do something, he wouldn't even have any chance as he had never seen her again after the dinner party that night.
He only came here today with his father.
If Lucian really loved her, things would not be that easy.
When Chairman Ronen heard his son's words, he knew that he was not joking.
He warned him in a serious tone, "You'd better stay away from her from now on. I'll ask your mom to arrange some dates with girls from good families, and you can choose one to be your wife from them."
"You can marry them if you like them. I won't marry anyone else except for her," Lucian shouted back and then walked to the elevator straight away.
Chairman Ronen was stunned when he heard this. Then he shouted back excitedly, "What did you just say?!"
Benson narrowed his eyes and smiled. He had never seen Lucian like this before. It seemed that he had grown up all of a sudden.
It must be hard for Lucian to hold back his anger all the time.
"Dad, let him go. He is only angry, and he didn't mean it. You don't need to take it seriously. The girl isn't here, so maybe we should go back now." Benson had already got what he wanted, so he didn't really care about anything else anymore.
"Get someone to follow him. I can't let him ruin his own future. I will have to take control of his marriage. Otherwise, he would have no idea who is good for him."
Benson suggested immediately, "Dad, I think Edith is good. Her parents really like Lucian. Why don't we introduce them to each other? We are going to do a big project with their family soon as well, so it would really help a lot if they could get married."
"Yes, your mother told me about this already. I will talk to her about it later, and then we will arrange something with her parents."
Benson knew his brother was stubborn, but he knew his father was even more stubborn.
But he still hadn't got any reply.
Then he went straight to Amelia's house. This was the first time he knocked on the door of Amelia's house.
Amelia's mother opened the door. She was a little shocked when he saw Lucian.
Lucian did not like her because of how he treated Amelia, but she was still the mother of the woman he loved, so he still respectfully greeted her, "Mrs. Macdonald, is Amelia home?"
Holly shook her head and said in a harsh tone, "God knows where she is. She can do whatever she wants in this house, can't she? She didn't even come back last night. God knows which man she is with now.
She gave me a card last night, saying that she would transfer money to me every month, and then she never appeared again."
Lucian frowned angrily when he heard this. "She is your daughter. How can you say this about her?"
God knew which man she was with now?
He couldn't believe what he had heard.
How could a mother talk about her daughter like this?
Holly sneered, "I can say whatever I want. Besides, she is leaving me now, so why should I care? She is not my daughter anyway. I took her home from a bunch of garbage just because she looked like me and her brother. I raised her up, so why shouldn't she pay me back now?"
"What?" Lucian looked at her in shock. "She is not your daughter?"
Holly was not a smart person, but she still could tell that Amelia was leaving them after hearing what she said last night.
Since Amelia wanted to leave, why would she care about her anymore? She never did what she told her to do anyway.
