Chapter 1135


    Matilda, after all, knew how much pain Amelia had endured.


    If anyone deserved to be pitied, her daughter deserved it even more than Warren.


    “All right, Mom, you should go to bed early,” Amelia said.


    When she saw Matilda return to her room, she gently lowered her gaze, covering her chest with her


    hand and sighing bitterly.


    Since her return, her thoughts had been consumed by the scene she witnessed in Warren’s office,


    with Alicia leaning on him.


    She was suspicious of what she saw because Alicia had previously had little to no contact with


    Warren. Despite that, she felt a suffocating sensation in her chest and a strong desire to rush


    forward and separate


    them.


    “What was wrong with me? I shouldn’t care about this!” she eximed secretly.


    Her marriage to Warren was merely a marriage of convenience, and they had already agreed to


    divorce before they even married.


    Even if Warren had been with another woman instead of Alicia that day, she should not have felt


    anything.


    Even though she told herself that, she could not let it go.


    “Is it because I discovered today that Warren was storing blood for me that my emotions are


    jumbled? I should stop thinking about it!” shemented inwardly.


    The image of Warren’s face kept shing in Amelia’s mind throughout the entire night, despite the


    repeated reminders she gave herself.


    On the day of the parent-child meeting, Amelia made an effort to present herself well. She wore a


    canary-yellow long dress instead of her usual dark attire. She still wore her hair in a ponytail, but


    she used a new hairpin. Besides that, she also wore sneakers and a white mohair cardigan, giving


    her a younger and more fashionable appearance.


    When Aiden saw his mother in the morning, he could not help but exim, “Mommy, you look so


    pretty!”

    Amelia smiled in response. Despite the fact that she knew her son would not judge her by her


    appearance, she still dressed up for him, not wanting to embarrass him.


    All she wanted was to be a better mother for her son.


    After breakfast, Amelia checked the time and wondered when Warren would arrive.


    When she opened the door, she was surprised to see Warren standing outside.

    “Why are you standing here without knocking?” Amelia asked.


    Warren seemed a bit embarrassed as he replied, “I was afraid that I might disturb you.”


    “Next time, just knock on the door,” Amelia replied.


    Warren’s expression changed slightly when he heard “next time,” but he quickly reminded himself


    not to overthink it. The more he thought about it, the more disappointed he would be in the end.


    He reasoned that he should have figured that out by then.


    “So, are we going to Aiden’s school now?” Warren inquired.


    “Yes,” Amelia replied.


    Warren’s gaze fell on Aiden, and he said, “Let’s go, Aiden.”


    Aiden looked at Warren, paused for a moment, and then called out, “Daddy.”


    Although it was only one word, it made Warren smile, and tears were welling in his eyes.


    At that moment, he was content. After all, despite his mistakes in the past, Aiden was still willing to


    acknowledge him as his father.


    Amelia’s eyes were drawn to the scene, and her gaze flickered slightly.


    Following that, the three of them arrived at Aiden’s school. It was especially lively that day because


    of the parent-child meeting. Parents were busy apanying their children to their respective


    ssrooms.


    Each ss had nned different activities based on a specific theme for the parent-child meeting.


    One ss created haunted housesplete


    with sound and visual effects to liven up the atmosphere, with students and parents dressed as


    various spooky characters.


    There was also a ss that created escape rooms and another that created a candy house where


    students served visitors snacks and treats.


    As for Aiden’s ss, they set up a time-travel beverage shop. They were selling various drinks, and


    the money used to purchase those beverages was taken from the ss funds. The beverages


    themselves were supplied at the purchase price from Amelia’s concession stand.


    Then, everyone decided on the selling prices for various beverages, and it was the responsibility of


    the students and parents in the ss to act as waiters.


    Because some of the students’ parents worked in the film and television industry and handled


    background actor costume rentals, they had ess to a variety of costumes that the ss could


    borrow that day.


    Hence, the students in the ss could choose costumes from various time periods and styles based


    on their preferences. Both children and adults would then dress up in the costumes and walk


    around the ssroom, which had been transformed into a beverage shop, creating the illusion of


    time travel and an interesting yet chaotic atmosphere.


    Based on their student ID, parents and students would take turns acting as waiters, with each shift


    lasting approximately half an hour. After their shift, they had a half-hour break to explore the school


    campus, visit other sses to buy food and drinks, or participate in various activities.


    In short, the school’s parent-child meeting was nned in the style of a carnival, with the goal of


    increasing interaction between adults and children, strengthening parent-child rtionships, and


    enhancing the rapport between students and parents within the ss.


    Because Aiden’s student ID was at the front, Amelia and Warren were in the first group acting as


    waiters.


    There were a total of 13 people, including eight parents and five students, who yed the role of


    waiters.


    The group then started picking out the props and costumes they wished


    to wear.


    “Aiden, both your daddy and mommy are here today, and your daddy looks so handsome, just like


    the girls were saying,” one of Aiden’s


    11:063


    ssmates said softly.


    Warren had previously announced their marriage in front of the concession stand after receiving


    their marriage certificate. As a result, some students in Aiden’s ss had seen Warren before.


    Some of the girls in his ss even privately referred to Warren as the “most handsome daddy” in


    the ss.


    Aiden hummed embarrassedly in response to thepliments on his father’s appearance. Hearing


    thepliments about his father’s appearance, he felt an inexplicable sense of pride. Previously,


    no matter if it was parent-teacher conferences or sports days, he was always apanied by his


    mother alone.


    He would be lying if he said he was not envious of his ssmates, who could bring both their father


    and mother to the events.


    In the past, he had never dared to hope that Warren woulde to school to apany him to an


    event.


    That day, his dream became a reality.


    In fact, many of his ssmates had only one parent with them that day, whereas he had both of his


    parents with him.


    Aiden was overjoyed, and even the prospect of working as a waiter afterward made him feel


    excited.
