Chapter 1134
A sense of fear surged from the depths of Alicia’s heart.
It was as if the man in front of her had read all of her thoughts.
“M-Mr. York, I just…” Alicia stuttered, trying to explain, but Warren completely ignored her and stormed
out of the office.
The secretary on the side looked at Alicia with disdain. She had seen many women who behaved
similarly to Alicia.
However, the only one Warren truly cared about was none other than Amelia.
Outside the company building, Amelia intended to hail a taxi to go back. She felt foolish for taking a taxi
there, especially after witnessing the scene in Warren’s office.
She would not have seen the scene if she had simply called him on the phone.
A strange sensation clutched at her heartstrings as if it wanted to prove something.
However, it was something she did not want to confirm.
Soon, a taxi pulled up in front of her, and as she reached for the door, a hand grabbed it, preventing her
from opening it. “Amelia, wait, please listen to my explanation. It’s really not what you think.”
“It is none of my concern. I came here solely to discuss the parent-child meeting with you. Aiden’s
classmates are all aware that we are married, and I am afraid that if you do not come, people will
gossip about him. So, if you have time, I hope you will be able to join,” Amelia said.
When Warren heard that, his gaze darkened. Her demeanor gave the impression that the explanations
he had in mind were superfluous and that she was only concerned with the parent-child meeting.
“Do you really not mind that I am with other women?” he murmured.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAmelia was taken aback, and the oppressive feeling in her chest seemed to be trying to tell her
something.
“Why should I mind?” she asked in return, deliberately ignoring that feeling in her heart.

Suddenly, the impatient driver in the front seat interjected, “Hey, are you getting in or not? Do not stand
there holding the door! You are disrupting my business!”
Amelia hurriedly said, “Sorry, I’ll ask him to leave!” After saying that, she looked at Warren. “I have said
everything I came to say today. You do not have to explain anything to me, regardless of your
relationships with other women.”
With that, she got into the car and closed the door.
The taxi quickly drove away, leaving Warren in a daze. He felt as if he were immersed in icy water,
feeling extremely cold.
turned out that her words were so heartless that they could make him feel like he was in an ice cellar in
an instant.
“So, she didn’t care about me in the slightest,” he remarked inwardly.
“Haha…” He laughed bitterly, realizing he had been a fool to think she cared about him when they were
at the hospital earlier that morning.
In the end, he was completely mistaken.
Those were just his delusions.
Warren felt like an empty shell as he returned to his office.
Alicia was still in the office, and when she saw Warren return, she gathered her courage and
approached him. “Mr. York, I believe you have a misunderstanding about me. I came here today with
nothing but good
intentions…”
Nevertheless, before she could get close to Warren, he slapped her and knocked her to the ground.
Warren stared at her with a cold, piercing gaze. “Good intentions? Either you believe yourself to be
exceptionally intelligent or you think I am a fool. If it were not for your previous assistance to Amelia,
your actions today would have left you and your supporters with nowhere to stand in Strico!”
Alicia’s body stiffened the moment she heard that, and she felt a searing pain on her cheek.
“Do not show up in front of me again in the future. Even if you once helped Amelia, I will not be kind to
you! And if you dare discuss Amelia’s
11.06
Chapter 1134
prior prison experiences with anyone, I can assure you that I’ll make you unable to speak for the rest of
your life,” Warren warned coldly.
In the end, Alicia left Warren’s office while trembling in terror.
When Warren warned her, her heart was racing with fear, and she felt a
murderous intent.
“I-Is Warren planning to kill me? I’m just overthinking it, right?” Alicia wondered as she tried to reassure
herself, but the fear inside her grew stronger, and her hatred and jealousy for Amelia grew stronger.
She felt that everything that happened to her that day was all because of Amelia.
Thinking about it, she wished Amelia did not exist, and she regretted helping Amelia in the past.
In the evening, after Aiden had fallen asleep, Matilda asked Amelia, “What’s the matter? You appeared
distracted when you returned today. Is there something wrong with today’s prenatal checkup? Please
tell me if something bothers you. Do not keep it to yourself.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Mom, I’m fine. Nothing went wrong during this prenatal checkup. The doctor simply advised me to
watch my diet and avoid eating too many oily foods,” Amelia explained.
“Then why…”
“I was just thinking about Aiden’s parent-child meeting,” Amelia casually explained.
“Why? Don’t tell me you can’t bring yourself to talk to Warren.”
“No, I’ve talked to him.”
“Then is he too busy to attend the parent-child meeting?” Matilda guessed.
“He will probably attend the parent-child meeting,” Amelia said after a brief pause. Although Warren did
not respond directly at the time, given his personality, he would attend if he did not refuse the invitation
in the first place.
“Are you worried that you might have to interact with him during the parent-child meeting?” Matilda
asked.
This time, Amelia did not deny it, and her mother continued, “If you
11:06
Chapter 1134
really do not want to go, you could just let Aiden’s homeroom teacher know. You can explain it by
saying you are pregnant and not feeling well. After all, not every family has both parents attend the
parent-child meeting.”
Amelia pursed her lips and smiled, dismissing her mother’s concerns. “It is all right. It’s just a parent-
child meeting. Even if I do go with Warren, it will not be a big deal. Besides, when this baby in my
womb is born, I will still have to interact with Warren to some extent. Since it cannot be avoided, I
would rather face it head-on than continually avoid it.”
“If you can come to terms with it, that’s the best. To be honest, he has changed a lot. When I look at
him now, I have the impression that he’s quite…” Matilda could not bring herself to say the word
“pitiable.”
