Chapter 1118


    Amelia was getting ready to leave as she spoke.


    Jasper stopped Amelia and said, “What are you doing? Warren hasn’t arrived yet today, and you’re


    already considering leaving?”

    Amelia only smelled alcohol when Jasper came closer.


    Ryan hurriedly grabbed Jasper and said, “Jasper, you’ve been drinking too much. Let’s not make


    things harder for her.” Then he smiled and said to Amelia, “Let’s invite Mr. York to have a meal with


    us. We’re all businessmen and mean no harm. If we can establish a business connection with Mr.


    York, it would benefit you as well. It’s a win-win situation. Ms. Haab, what do you think?”


    Ryan pretended to speak on behalf of Amelia, but his real intention was to ask her to get Warren


    over. One could argue that one person portrayed the heroic character while the other embraced the


    role of the viin.


    Amelia replied, “Warren and I have a different kind of rtionship than you may think. If you want to


    engage with the York family for business, you can visit hispany to meet him. There’s no need to


    do it in such an indirect way.”


    Just as Amelia was about to leave again, Jasper grabbed her and


    threatened, “Well, you seem ungrateful. Do you think the baby in your belly is a treasure? Believe it


    or not, I can easily make you lose your child today.”


    Amelia was stunned, and Alicia, next to her, quickly said, “Amelia, please reconsider. Why not allow


    Warren to join us here? It’s merely a meal, after all. There’s no need to create unnecessary conflict.


    Mr. Yustone’s family background isplex, so it’s best not to offend him. I thought I was being


    generous by taking you out for dinner, but I certainly didn’t anticipate such a situation.”


    Amelia looked down at her belly. It seemed like she was being lured into a trap today. If Warren did


    not show up, these people wouldn’t allow her to leave.


    Jasper, in particr, was clearly the dominant person. He was


    ustomed to being dominant. It was hard to say what such a person would do.


    Also, she was too afraid to put the baby at risk.

    As for Warren, Amelia couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. She just told Warren yesterday not to


    show up again, but today, she was looking for Warren again.


    Amelia took her phone out of her bag and called Warren under the gaze of the group of people in


    the private room.


    “Amelia?” Warren’s voice came from the other end of the phone, full of disbelief.


    Amelia said, “It’s me. I’m having dinner with some people who really want to see you. So please


    come here. We’re at…’ Then, she told him the name, address, and private room number of the


    fondue restaurant.


    At the other end of the phone, Warren seemed to ponder for a moment and then replied, “Okay, I’ll


    be right there.” After saying that, he ended the call.


    Amelia informed everyone in the private room. “I’ve already called him. He should be here soon.”


    Everyone suddenly became friendly. Jasper, who had previously prevented Amelia from leaving,


    also became friendly. He believed that Amelia was finally aware of what was happening. “s. It


    would have been better if this had happened earlier. We simply want to have a meal with Warren to


    discuss business. If the deal goes well, there will be advantages for you as well. Do you truly


    believe you can join the York family by having a baby? Unless the York family wanted to humiliate


    themselves, they wouldn’t marry a woman who has been in prison!”


    Amelia remained silent and ignored Jasper. She had no interest in interacting with anyone in the


    room. However, Jasper mistakenly believed that Amelia had agreed with him.


    Alicia’s eyes shed when Jasper mentioned Amelia as “a woman who has been in prison.”


    Alicia knew that if she, as Ryan’s mistress, wanted to be his wife, she would have to conceive


    a son. However, her past imprisonment was also a major obstacle.


    Fortunately, Ryan’s wife gave birth to a daughter only. If she had a son and let Ryan bond with


    Warren, her chances of bing his wife would greatly improve!


    Thinking of this, she acted like she was helping Amelia and whispered,


    10:12


    “Amelia, I apologize. I intended to invite you to dinner, but I had no idea it would turn out this way.


    Ryan’s friends are quite well-off. Given situation, if we can earn some money, it will make us feel


    more sec the future.”


    “Is that so?” Amelia asked faintly. She had always kept her rtionship with Warren a secret from


    Alicia. Still, it was evident to everyone in the private room that Warren was the father of the baby


    growing inside her.


    Upon reflection, Alicia might have seen Warren when she came to the concession stand.


    ording to the neighbors, Warren frequently parked his car near the concession stand and would


    watch it from inside his car.


    Hence, everything was nned. Alicia visited the concession stand multiple times because of


    Warren. She schemed and invited her out to dinner.


    “I’ll never harm you. We’re friends, after all,” Alicia whispered while feeling guilty and looking at


    Amelia.


    In the private room, Ryan asked everyone to enjoy the food and drink. He also ordered desserts


    that were suitable for pregnant women. However, Amelia refused to eat or even drink water. Even


    though Alicia repeatedly urged Amelia to have some, Amelia still refused.


    There was a subtle tension filling the room.

    Jasper suddenly threw his fork on the table and shouted at Amelia, “Who do you believe yourself to


    be? Do you truly think highly of yourself just because you are associated with Warren? There have


    been few women standing behind a man like him. Who on earth do you think you are? Is it because


    you are pregnant that you believe you can behave in such a manner? Whether you believe it or not,


    if I were to instruct you to drink in front of himter, you would still have to oblige. He would not


    voice any objections on your behalf.”


    “Who do you ask to have a drink?” Jasper’s words were interrupted by a voice as the door to the


    private room was pushed open.


    Everyone in the private room was stunned and only saw a tail figure walking in. If it was not Warren,


    then who could it be?


    Warren was dressed in a navy suit, and his hair was neatlybed. He appeared noble and


    elegant, though his face remained pale under the


    light. Uponying her eyes on Warren’s hand, Amelia noticed the presence of white bandages


    wrapped around it. It seemed that he went to the hospital yesterday to treat the wound.


    Nevertheless, Warren was apanied by multiple bodyguards. The tall and strong bodyguards


    made people feel intimidated when they entered the private room.


    Seeing this, the others in the private room immediately changed their expressions. Ryan


    immediately stood up and greeted, “Hello, Mr. York. I’m Ryan Golding. I once met you at a


    seminar.”
