Chapter 1259

Edith looked at Lucian, who was in a black suit, and walked in calmly.

However, there was a trace of anger on his handsome face.

He didn't look at anyone but his mother.

"Why?" He asked in an indifferent and alienated tone.

Renata pretended not to understand her son's words and asked with a teasing smile, "What do you mean? I don't understand what you are talking about. Edith is here. Why don't you sit down and talk to her? I'll prepare some food for you."

"I'm asking you why? Why did you do that to her? Why?" Suddenly, Lucian shouted at her mother.

This was the first time that he had been so angry with his mother.

His roar shocked everyone in the living room.

Lucian could feel that his body was trembling. His heart was filled with pain and worry for Amelia.

How would she continue to live after walking away like this?

And how could he continue to live like this?

He felt he could never love anyone else in his life anymore.

Because his heart was already so fondly devoted to her.

He could never let her go.

He could only love her in his life.

No matter what she looked like, he could never change his mind anymore.

Renata's eyes welled up with tears. She stared at her son, who had lost his temper for the first time, in disbelief. He had always been an obedient boy, never gone against her wishes.

No matter what kind of pressure or request she made, as a son, he would try his best to do it.

Compared to the sons in other families, her son had never made her worried. Her son was always so gentle and refined, and she felt so proud of him in her heart. In her eyes, her son was better than anyone else, and he was such a genius in everything. Everyone else was so jealous of her having such a perfect son.

"Lucian, how can you speak to your mother like this?" Chairman Ronen looked at him angrily. His stern and angry tone made people tremble with fear.

Lucian was standing under the dazzling chandelier, making him look even more indomitable.

Everyone seemed to be able to feel the cold air around him.

Looking at him like this, Edith felt he was even more charming. His eyes looked sharp and cold because of the anger, but he was still handsome enough to make everyone woman fall for him.

"Lucian, calm down. Edith is your future wife. Don't scare her," Benson said in a strange tone.

"Shut up. I have been avoiding you because I wanted to maintain the peace and calm of this family.

Even though I knew everyone was faking it, I still didn't want to ruin it. I know you just want to inherit the property of our family on your own. Now let me tell you, I can give up on everything if you let her back. If not, I will fight for every penny that is supposed to be mine!"

As soon as he finished, Renata got up quickly and slapped him on the face hard.

Then she looked at him in disappointment and said, "Lucian, your father is still here. Who do you think you are threatening?"

After being slapped by his own mother, Lucian still stood rooted to the spot indifferently. "I've already said what I was supposed to say, but I haven't done what I'm supposed to do. Benson, do you want to play? Alright then. Let's see who will win in the end."

Benson narrowed his eyes and looked at Lucian with a cold smile. Then he mouthed to him, "That's what I am waiting for."

Lucian didn't say anything, but turned around and left angrily.

"Lucian, Lucian! Where are you going?" Renata ran after him with tears in her eyes.

Lucian stopped in the courtyard and turned back to look at his mother with a painful look. His handsome face was full of pain, but his whole body was still full of rage.

"Lucian," Renata looked at him, feeling her heart ached. She regretted it very much that she had just slapped him. She had never hit him before, neither had she even say anything harsh to him.

"Lucian, don't you understand why I did it? I did it for your own good. You know the situation in our family. Even if I agreed, would your dad agree? You know what your dad is like. He will never let you marry that girl. He will destroy her if you insisted.

I know that she loves you very much, and she is also a very clever and sensible girl. When I first met her, to be honest, I had a good impression of her and knows that she is a good girl and will be a good wife.

I just told her that it would ruin your future if she stayed with you, and it would also ruin your mother and your brother's life. I was only telling the truth. I also offered her a great amount of money, but she refused in the end. I told her that today was the deadline for her to leave you. She kept her promise and really left.

I feel very sorry and guilty about you and her. But as your mother, I wouldn't let anyone ruin your future. You should get everything that is supposed to be yours.

I tried to maintain the peace between your brother all these years, but I know he hurt you a lot since you were a kid. Do you think everything was just an accident? It was his who planned everything on purposed to hurt you. If Amelia stayed with you, not only would your father not let her go, but also your brother would use her to threaten you. Amelia is your weak point. You would be the only one who gets hurt in the end."

Lucian closed his eyes in pain. A powerful murderous aura emanated from his body and transformed into intense pain.

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at his mother, he asked faintly, "Mom, is those properties really more important than my happiness?"

Renata was shocked by his sudden question.

"Lucian, you were born in such a family, so you have no choice." Renata could not stop her tears from coming out again.

If she had a choice before, she would not have married into the Ronen family.

"Mom, have you lived happily after marrying dad? Why do you want me to live the same life as you then? Why can't I choose my own life?

Because I am bound by the property and money, I have to give up the woman I love and live a life with a woman I don't love. I will never be happy. Is this what you want?"
