Chapter 704


    At that time, he didn’t even dare to take a closer look. He just felt as if he had betrayed something.


    But what did he betray? He and Irene were about to get married. Even if they really had sex, it was


    nothing.


    What was more, before Amelia was imprisoned, he and Irene had slept in the same bed together


    before. Butter, after Amelia went to prison, he somehow became more used to falling asleep


    alone.


    Even though he was in a rtionship with Irene and had even talked about getting married, it


    seemed that once he did some intimate things with Irene, he would feel guilty.


    Even he couldn’t exin why.


    He wondered, “Is it because of Amelia? But how could she affect me like this? Since I was able to


    testify against her in court, it means that I don’t love her at all!” “How could this have happened? My


    poor child!” Ivy had already moved to sprawl beside Irene and was wailing. “Why is that Amelia so


    cruel? Is it not enough that she hurt you once,


    but now a second time? Two children! That’s two lives!”


    “Mom, please… Stop it…” Irene’s face was already pale after the operation, but with tears now


    streaming down her cheeks, she looked even more pitiful.


    “You had a miscarriagest time, and that made it so it isn’t easy for you to get pregnant again. Now


    you finally got pregnant, but Amelia caused you to lose the baby once more! She did it on purpose!


    She’s afraid that your pregnancy would affect her own son’s future inheritance of the York family


    assets, and that’s why she hurt you!”


    Warren shook his head slightly and said in disbelief, “Amelia… also knew about Irene’s


    pregnancy?”


    “Irene said to Aiden… It wouldn’t be long before she gave him a younger brother or sister. Irene is


    kind-hearted, so she brought Aiden to see us today in hopes that we would treat the two children


    equally in the future. Who knew Amelia would deliberately push her…”


    Ivy cursed Amelia hatefully, seeming as though she wanted nothing more than to rip thetter


    apart.


    With an anguished expression, Thomas said, “Warren, Irene has endured much for you. Back then,


    Amelia made her lose her baby and hurt her body. It hadn’t been easy for her to finally get pregnant


    again, but now she’s had another miscarriage. I’m afraid it would be impossible for her to have


    children again in the future. Amelia killed two children, the descendants of both the Fletcher family


    and the York family. We can’t just let it go.”


    Warren’s face darkened. His eyes fell on Irene, who was still crying and ming

    herself, while Thomas’ voice continued to sound in his ears.


    “Irene has treated you very well all this while. You can’t let Amelia go just because she is Aiden’s


    biological mother!”


    “I know. I will give Irene an exnation on this matter no matter what,” Warren said in a deep voice.


    Irene was the woman he had sworn to protect all his life!


    Back then, despite being a stranger, she chose to donate her bone marrow for him and save his life.


    That was the only reason he survived and could have the chance to rebuild the York family.


    If it weren’t for Irene, he wouldn’t have lived till this day.


    But now, Irene was repeatedly hurt because of Amelia.


    It was because he had been too kind to Amelia that Irene got hurt. If he had only been more


    ruthless to Amelia back then, the events of today wouldn’t have happened.


    The next day was the weekend, so Aiden didn’t need to go to kindergarten. Amelia said to her


    mother, “Mom, I’m bringing Aiden to y in the small park nearby.” “Don’t you want to sleep for a


    little while longer and get more rest?” Matilda questioned. On weekends, she was the one who


    usually took her grandson to y in the park nearby in the morning because Amelia had to set up


    her food cart at night.


    “No need. I want to spend more time with Aiden,” Amelia said. Every minute was very precious to


    her now.


    Matilda sighed. “Okay. I’ll stay home to make lunch and wait for you. Later, I will cook some dishes


    that you like.”


    “Okay.” Amelia smiled faintly and then took her son out of the house.


    Many parents would take their children to the park near their residential area on weekends.


    Usually, Aiden would y with other children here. But today, when he arrived at the park, he didn’t


    y with those children of his age but stood beside Amelia, looking worried.


    “What’s the matter? Aren’t you going to y?” Amelia asked curiously.


    The little boy hesitated for a while and finally said, “Mommy… You’re not a bad guy, are you?”


    Clearly, what happened in the private room yesterday had affected him greatly.


    Amelia knew that although her son was only four years old, he could actually understand most of


    what the adults were saying.


    She squatted down and said, “No, I’m not a bad guy.”


    Her eyes focused on her son’s childish face. Aiden actually looked like Warren, but his eyes


    resembled hers, especially when he smiled.

    However, she had rarely smiled because of the hardships in her life over the past few years. Thus,


    she hoped that her son couldugh and smile more in the future and not bear huge psychological


    burdens because of her.

    “Aiden, remember this. I have never hurt anyone before. I have gone to jail previously, but that


    doesn’t mean that I’m a bad


    person. Not everyone who jail is a bad person, as there are cases where the person was wrongly


    used. Rosalie is awyer, which means her job is to ensure that people who were wronged will


    no longer be punished for what they didn’t do. She makes sure thew will give them justice.”


    Aiden blinked and said, “Well… Will Rosalie stop you from being falsely wronged, Mommy?”


    Amelia said softly, “Rosalie has been trying to help me, but I was wronged a long time ago, and the


    evidence is so hard to find. Besides, I don’t care so much about all that anymore. I only hope you


    can live a good life and grow up happily, Aiden.” “Then when I grow up, I will be awyer! “I’ll


    be sure to protect you from being wronged, Mommy!” the little boy dered solemnly.

    Amelia was both happy and sad to hear that, as she likely couldn’t see the day her son grew up!


    But taking in the serious look in Aiden’s eyes, she still replied, “Okay. I will wait for you to grow up


    so I won’t be wronged any longer.”


    Hearing that, Aiden smiled and finally started to y with his friends.


    Amelia looked at her son, who was having fun with the other children. She took out her phone and


    took photos of him ying. After that, she opened the album again and flipped back one by one to


    see whether she was satisfied with the photos.


    Suddenly, her fingers stopped. The picture on the phone was not from her recent bout of photo-


    taking but the photo of her, Aiden, and Warren ying in the amusement park. She had


    downloaded it from the park appst time.
