Chapter 669


    “Amelia, what happened? Why do you suddenly n to give up Aiden’s custody?” Rosalie asked.


    “The chance of winning thewsuit is small. Moreover… As you can see, I’m managing a food cart


    now and can’t make much money. More money will be needed to cover Aiden’s needs in the future.


    If he follows me, he won’t be able to enter a good school, and I don’t have extra money for him to


    attend any extracurricr sses either. Even food and clothing I can provide him will only be the


    worst.”


    “I can provide Aiden with those needs! You see. I like Aiden very much and treat him as my


    godson,” Rosalie hurriedly said.


    “Thank you, Rosalie.” Amelia forced a smile. “You already helped me a lot, but… I might ept


    your kindness if Aiden had no father. But since he has one, and his father can provide him a better


    life, I’ll just let him follow his father.”


    “But Amelia, are you willing to give Aiden’s custody to him?” Rosalie asked. Since she was


    pregnant, she could feel the blood connection between a child and its mother, not to mention Amelia


    had raised Aiden for four years.


    “Even if I’m reluctant, I have to do that. I only want to choose the best way for Aiden and hope he


    can understand my painstaking efforts in the future,” Amelia murmured.


    “You think that’s the best way, but it may not be the way Aiden likes. Does Aiden know that he will


    live with Warren in the


    uture?”


    “I haven’t told Aiden yet. I’ll hand him to Warren in three months and n to talk to him when the


    timees.” Amelia wanted to spend thest three months with Aiden happily and requested,


    “Rosalie, could you please keep this from Aiden?”


    Amelia’s eyes were filled with a begging look.


    Rosalie said, “Amelia, there’s no need for you to take this approach yet. I already told Jon to find the


    attending physician who performed an abortion for Irene after she fell off the stairs back then. As


    long as Irene was not pregnant with Warren’s child at that time, I have the confidence to prove that


    you were framed.”


    Yet, Amelia’s expression remained unchanged after she said that. “It doesn’t matter anymore


    whether I was framed.”

    “How can it be doesn’t matter? Amelia, do you want to live on that allegation for the rest of your


    life?” Rosalie asked.


    Amelia lowered her gaze and thought, “Will it be forever? Perhaps I’m destined to bear that


    allegation in this life.”


    “Rosalie, thank you for everything you have done for me, but… That’s enough. I made the decision


    to give Aiden’s custody to Warren after thinking it through, not on impulse. But…” She paused


    before continuing with a hint of pleading in her tone, “If Aiden needs your help in the future, I hope


    you can give him a hand.”


    “Of course, I will help Aiden if he needs it, but…”


    No matter what Rosalie said, Amelia was still firm in her decision and did not mean to change it.


    Seeing that, Rosalie could only give up persuading her for the time being.


    At night, Rosalie kept thinking about Amelia’s words and could not fall asleep.


    “What’s the matter? You can’t sleep?” Jonathan, who was lying beside her, asked.


    -“Did I wake you up?” said Rosalie.


    “No,” Jonathan replied. In truth, he would wait for her to fall asleep every day before he drifted off to


    sleep. “Are you thinking about Amelia?” “Yeah,” she answered. “What do you think about Amelia


    suddenly change her mind and stop fighting for Aiden’s custody?”


    “Maybe it’s just like what she said. Giving Aiden’s custody to Warren will be the best choice for


    Aiden,” Jonathan said.


    Rosalie heaved a sigh upon hearing that. “Anyway, you’d better continue to find that attending


    physician for me. Maybe Warren will be willing to give Aiden’s custody to Amelia after we have


    found the doctor and unraveled the truth. Everyone will be delighted then.”


    “No problem. You should rest early, and don’t think too much,” Jonathan replied.


    “Well… I’m a little hungry,” Rosalie suddenly said.


    “Let me ask someone to make some food for you.” Jonathan got up as he spoke.


    “No need. It’s alreadyte. It’s not good to wake them up to make some food, and… I feel like eating


    fruit soup now. I’ll go to the kitchen and make it myself,” Rosalie said.


    11:25


    “I’ll make it for you,” Jonathan suggested.


    “You?” Rosalie was stunned by his words.


    “It’s just a fruit soup and doesn’t take a long time,” he said.


    In the end, Rosalie left the bedroom with Jonathan and went to the kitchen.


    Rosalie sat on the chair at the kitchen bar counter and watched Jonathan take out the fruit from the


    refrigerator, peel it, cut it into pieces, and then start to prepare soup. A smile crept on her face.


    The man before her seemed to carry more vor of life. It was as if the distance between him and


    her was slowly closing, which was different from that feeling of him being high and mighty.


    Rosalie held her chin with both hands and silently stared at Jonathan, who was busy cooking. She


    liked such a peaceful and heartwarming life very much.


    Soon, the fruit soup was ready. Jonathan brought a bowl of it to Rosalie and reminded her, “Be


    careful of burns. It’s still hot. Let it get cold first before you dig in.”


    “Got it.” Rosalie slowly stirred the soup with a spoon to cool it off faster before suddenly asking, “By


    the way, Jon, what do you want for your birthday?”


    Jonathan’s body suddenly stiffened. He mused, “My birthday? Oh yeah, my birthday is around the


    corner, but… She had a worse birthday celebrationst time.”


    At the mention of the birthday, what came into his mind was the scene. he broke up with her during


    her birthdayst time.


    If he hadn’t proposed a breakup back then, both of them wouldn’t have had to experience those


    twists and turns, let alone have a heavy mood every time he thought of it.


    Rosalie, who was lowering her head, looked up at Jonathan after sensing his silence. “What’s


    wrong?”


    He hesitated for a moment before parting his lips. “You don’t need to prepare anything for my


    birthday. Just a simple celebration will do.” “Even if it’s a simple celebration, I still have to prepare a


    gift. Tell me what you like. I’ll try my best to get it for you,” she said.


    Jonathan’s eyshes quivered slightly/ “I… don’t need any gifts. You can stay with me like this is


    already the best gift for me!”


    11:25


    “Oh, no. Do you mind celebrating your birthday now because of what happened on my birthday


    before?” Rosalie guessed.


    He pursed his lips and did not respond. From that, she could tell her guess was correct.


    “Jon, it’s true that my birthday was sucked back then. However, those past were the things that led


    to what we have today. Maybe it’s because of the loss earlier that we cherish each other more now,”


    Rosalie said calmly.
