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. But later,
after Amelia went to prison, he somehow became more used to falling asleep alone.
Even though he was in a relationship 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 explain 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 miscarriage last 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

Amelia would deliberately push her…”
Ivy cursed Amelia hatefully, seeming as though she wanted nothing more than to rip the latter 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 blaming

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 explanation 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 play 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 play 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 play with other children here. But today, when he arrived at the park, he didn’t play with those
children of his age but stood beside Amelia, looking worried.
“What’s the matter? Aren’t you going to play?” 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 could laugh 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 accused. Rosalie is
a lawyer, 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 the law 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 become a lawyer! “I’ll be sure to protect you from being wronged,
Mommy!” the little boy declared 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 play 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 playing. 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 playing in the amusement park. She had downloaded it from the park app last
time.
