Chapter 677
Even if she was low-key, she had to stand up and be strong for Amelia’s sake. Otherwise, Irene
would look down her nose on Amelia even more. A glint shed across Irene’s eyes, but she still
insisted, “Sure. I also want to know the truth!”
Rosalie ignored Irene and asked Amelia, “Amelia, can you stand?”
“No problem.” Amelia forced a smile and stood up unsteadily.
Rosalie was going to hold Amelia steady, but Jonathan said, “Let me.” After that, he held one of
Amelia’s arms and walked toward the exit.
Warren narrowed his eyes slightly. He knew Jonathan had no feelings for Amelia and was only
willing to help her because of Rosalie.
However, Warren still found the scene to be an eyesore.
Amelia ignored Warren as she passed him, not even sparing him a nce.
Warren pursed his thin lips into a straight line and stared at Amelia’s back as she left.
Irene cast an unhappy nce at Warren. Uneasiness welled up within her at how focused he was
on Amelia’s back.
She thought angrily, “Does he still have that bitch, Amelia, in his heart?”
However, it would not be long before she and Warren got married. By then, regardless of whether
he still had Amelia in his heart or not, she wanted him to have only her in it.
After leaving the police station, Irene was still crying andining about how she was wronged.
“I just thought I should settle my previous grievances with Amelia since I would be raising Aiden in
the future, but… she pped me in the face. She caused me to miscarry and lose my child in the
past and even treated me like this now. Don’t I have the right to be angry? I didn’t want to put you in
a difficult position, so I wanted to reconcile with her. Yet…”
Irene wept, looking pitiful, especially under the illumination of the streetmp. The light shining on
her face made the imprint on her cheek look even more apparent.
As Warren stared at the mark on her face, images of Amelia’s bruised face crossed his mind
instead.

His gaze sharpened as he looked at Irene.
“W-What’s wrong?” Irene stuttered as guilt washed over her. She felt as if
his
eyes could see through her acts and thoughts.
“Do you really have nothing to do with those gangsters who made trouble today?” Warren asked in
a deep voice.
Irene’s heartbeat suddenly elerated, but she still kept an aggrieved look on her face. “Warren,
you also think I’m involved? Do you also believe what that Rosalie woman said? She and Amelia
are on the same
side!”
Warren stared at Irene for a while and said, “It doesn’t matter. I can find out the truth the minute I
look into it. Irene, Amelia’s imprisonment was her punishment for the child you lost. I don’t want to
stir up any more trouble and be aughingstock. Understand?”
Irene’s heart was shocked. He was implying he knew she was the culprit behind the incident that
morning but did not say it directly to save her dignity.
“I… understand.” Irene bit her red lips and lowered her head. A trace of envy was evident in her
eyes.
She vowed silently, “Once I be the matriarch of the York family, I’ll take my revenge against
Amelia and that illegitimate child! I’ll make sure that child is ruined so that Amelia never has the
chance to turn over!”
Rosalie and Jonathan apanied Amelia to the hospital for an examination. Fortunately, Amelia
only suffered some superficial injuries and nothing internal.
After sending Amelia back, Rosalie still had difficulty getting over her anger at Irene’s despicable
behavior.
“Say, do you think Amelia isfortable handing Aiden to Warren? Once Warren and Irene get
married, that woman will be Aiden’s stepmother,” Rosalie reminded.
“I’m sure she thought about it. All right, don’t be angry anymore. Anger is not good for pregnant
women,” Jonathan said.
“I just feel that it’s unfair for Amelia. Can’t Warren see that Irene is acting?” Rosalie asked.
“Maybe he can, but still tolerates her. As far as I know, Warren got together with Irene at that time
because he happened to be sick and needed a bone marrow transnt when the York family was
down and

out. He then found a suitable donor for the transnt in the bone marrow bank,” Jonathan said.
“And that person turns out to be Irene?” Rosalie questioned.
“Yeah.” Jonathan nodded. “Irene donated her bone marrow to Warren, and they got to know each
other from there.”
“But isn’t this kind of donation random and confidential? How could they meet, then?” Rosalie was
confused.
Jonathan said, “Irene had a boyfriend at that time, who was a doctor in the hospital Warren was
staying. It seemed Irene met Warren through him. I just ran a general investigation on him when
searching for the attending physician’s whereabouts you’re looking for. I didn’t ask for further
investigation.”
“Have you heard anything about the attending physician yet?” Rosalie asked.
“A bit. We should be hearing from them soon,” Jonathan answered. “That’s good.” Rosalie’s frown
smoothened out slightly upon hearing the good news. “I hope we can find out the truth earlier and
prove Amelia’s innocence.”
“Is the truth so important?” Jonathan questioned abruptly.

“Of course it is!” Rosalie answered with certainty. “Won’t you turn out like Warren, who can’t tell
ck from white, if you are unaware of the truth for the rest of your life?”
“But sometimes, knowing the truth may not be a good thing,” he argued as he nced at her
thoughtfully.
“If it were me, I’d rather know the truth than be fooled by illusions,” she said. That was why she went
to the Faculty of Law and chose to be awyer.
Jonathan pursed his thin lips and dropped his gaze. He seemed to be shrouded by destion.
“What? Do you think it’s bad for Warren to know the truth if Irene did indeed frame Amelia?” Rosalie
asked, holding Jonathan’s face with her hands and meeting his gaze.
“No, it’s good.” Jonathan smiled faintly and added, “If Warren knew the truth, there might be
changes in the custody decision.”
However, there were some truths that he hoped would stay hidden forever. Hopefully, they never
see the light of day.
