Chapter 1160
After nearly 20 minutes of rinsing, Rosalie thought it was almost done. Then she turned off the
faucet and carefully dried Amelia’s hand. She asked, “Do you have any scald ointment here? It’s
better to apply it, or your hands will have blisters, which will hurt badly.”
“Yes, I will do itter,” Amelia said.
“Let me help you apply it first. Where’s the first aid kit?” Rosalie asked. After Amelia answered, she
found out the scald ointment and applied it to Amelia.
“Well, I’m fine now. It’s gettingte. You can go back first,” Amelia said.
Rosalie looked at the time. It was almost time to pick up her children from kindergarten, so she said,
“Okay, I’m leaving now. Don’t touch water for two hours.”
“Okay, got it,” Amelia said.

When Rosalie left, Amelia stared at the back of her red and swollen hand
in sorrow.
She thought about how she was the one who pushed Warren out of
Strico.
When she was young and ignorant, she only thought that as long as they were in love, nothing
would stop them.
When she grew up, she realized some things just weren’t meant to be.
tter! tter!
Drops of water kept dripping on the back of her hand that had just been stered, making it wet.
Amelia was stunned for a while before realizing it was her tears. She cried again. She couldn’t help
but wonder if it was because of Warren’s
departure or their superficial love.
Tears kept running down her face.
She told herself not to cry because it was terrible for the baby.
Additionally, Aiden was about to finish school, and her mother was about to return from shopping.

However, her tears were still falling, as if there was no end to it.
At night, Aiden fell asleep. Looking at the red swelling on her daughter’s hand, Matilda couldn’t help
saying, “You’ve been absent-minded these days. How about you stop working for a few days and
rest?”
“That’s not a great idea. If we shut down for a few days, someone else might steal our business. It’ll
be challenging to attract customers back to our stand once we reopen,” Amelia remarked.
“That’s…” Matilda was interrupted by a loud, pounding knock on the door as she spoke.
The two looked at each other. After all, it was sote that few people would knock on the door.
They walked to the door. Amelia nced through the peephole and saw it was Ryan outside.
Ryan was knocking on the door more loudly, shouting, “Open the door! I have something important
to say. Open the door. I’ll leave as soon as I tell you. I won’t waste your time…”
Amelia frowned and said through the door, “Ryan, I’ve already told you I won’t see Alicia. She
doesn’t have to say anything to me. The court will judge her ordingly!”
Amelia had no desire to show kindness when Alicia framed her.
Moreover, since Alicia had tried to harm Amelia’s child, it’s no surprise that Amelia couldn’t forgive
her.
When Ryan heard Amelia’s words, he didn’t leave. Instead, he said something to her.
Amelia was shocked, and her pupils unconsciously contracted when she heard that. Then she
suddenly opened the door and stared at Ryan. “How do
you know about Riley? Did Alicia tell you about that?”
Ryan immediately said, “Yes, she told me that if you want to know about Riley, meet her at the
detention center. She says she knows where Riley
is.”
Although Ryan didn’t know who Riley was, he could tell Riley was someone important based on
Amelia’s and Alicia’s reactions.
Ryan was thinking back to his exchange with Alicia, starting with her saying, “If you tell her I know
where Riley is, she’ll visit me!”

“Who is Riley?” he asked curiously.
However, Alicia just looked at him with a sneer. “Ryan, I want to leave while you want to get your
family out of trouble. In that case, we can cooperate. You don’t need to ask more about the rest of it.
You aren’t the man I want to cling to anymore!”
Ryan stopped upon noticing he couldn’t get anything out of Alicia.
After all, he was just a message boy.
Amelia’s expression shifted as she went silent.
Ryan asked cautiously, “Ms. Haab, you’ll attend, won’t you? Alicia said if you don’t go, you might
end up regretting it. It seems Riley is going through a tough time.”
Amelia took a deep breath and looked at the person in front of her coldly. “Don’te to me again. I
will go to the detention center. What Alicia and I will do when we meet will be of no concern to you.”
“Okay, okay. As long as you go there, I will not disturb you in the future!” Ryan said and left
immediately.
Matilda looked at her daughter worriedly. “Are you really going to visit Alicia? She must have an
ulterior motive for doing this!”
“Of course, she has her reasons. Nevertheless, I must go,” Amelia said before closing the door. “I
mentioned before that I had a friend who looked out for me in prison. That friend was released
before I was. Back then, I wanted to keep my distance from Warren, so my friend helped me go into
hiding and altered my information. That’s why Warren couldn’t find me for a while after my release.”
After a brief pause, she added, “That person is Riley Summer. She helped me tremendously in the
past. Regrettably, I lost touch with her afterward. Now that Alicia knows Riley’s location, I need to
see her to find out where Riley is.”
Amelia was eager to visit Alicia because Riley was apparently not doing great ording to Ryan,
who passed along Alicia’s words.
Amelia recalled that, back then, Riley said she was doing fine after leaving prison. As such, Amelia
was worried that Riley was in a bad spot.
“Ah, I see. So that person is Riley,” Matilda murmured. Of course, she knew about that person, but
her daughter didn’t tell her the name back

Chapter 1160 then.
It was only then did Matilda learned the person who helped Amelia was Riley.
The next day, Amelia went to the detention center and met Alicia.
When Alicia saw Amelia, a trace of resentment shed in her eyes. Then she smiled softly and said,
“I wonder how well things would’ve gone if I hadn’t met you at Women’s Health Hospital.”
In that scenario, she would still be Ryan’s mistress. Then, she would’ve found a way to be pregnant
with Ryan’s child and used that to be his legitimate lover.
