Aiden finally smiled, and the worries and fears in his eyes gradually disappeared. “I like Mommy most…” He wanted to grow up quickly so that he could protect his family.
Amelia was relieved to see her son’s smile.
The next day, Amelia came to the detention center and met Alicia.
Alicia looked at Amelia’s noticeably swollen belly with a resentful gaze. Her child had been aborted, but Amelia’s child was still alive.
Consequently, Alicia thought the world was unfair.
Once released from prison, she would make sure that Amelia suffered.
“How about it? When can I get out of prison?” Alicia grinned and looked at Amelia with a determined look, as if she were extremely sure that she
could leave there.
“I tried my best, but the police have a record of your case. It is impossible for you to be acquitted, so the most you can get is a probation sentence,” Amelia said.
“What? Probation?” Alicia raised her eyebrows and said, “There will be a record of my probation. Don’t you know the difference between probation and acquittal?”
“It wasn’t easy for me to do this. If I don’t intervene, you will be sentenced to between three and ten years in prison. The York family found the best lawyer in Lofbury and even wanted you to get life
imprisonment. Alicia, if you really want to be acquitted, there’s nothing I can do. Just pretend there never was a deal between you and me.”
With that, Amelia turned around and was about to leave.
Alicia sneered coldly, “Haha, I thought you cared about your friends, but it seems not. Poor Riley is suffering, and her boyfriend is not willing to save her even when he has the chance
Amelia paused and turned. “Alicia, it’s not that I don’t want you to be acquitted. It’s that I can’t. Besides, I have already separated from Warren. I went to Lofbury, swallowed my pride, and begged him to let you go. That is the best outcome I can get. Even if he agrees to release you, the police won’t let you go. The police records have already been reported to the

whole town. So they can’t be erased.”
Alicia was silent. She naturally understood what Amelia had said. She had already planned in her mind that if she could be acquitted, it would be the best thing to do. If not, then the next best thing she could hope for was probation.
She would doubt it if Amelia had said directly that she could be acquitted. However, her doubts had been dispelled.
“All right, then. I’ll accept the probation. As long as I’m not imprisoned, that’s enough for me. When I am free to go, I will certainly tell you Riley’s whereabouts,” said Alicia.
“I hope you can keep your promise,” Amelia said.
“As long as you keep our agreement, of course I will!” Alicia sneered.
As soon as Alicia was released from prison, she would find a way to fly out of the country. That was her plan. As for whether she would keep her end of the agreement, that would depend on her mood.
Amelia’s moving process went quickly.
She packed only some clothes and daily necessities, as well as the bags she had prepared for her pregnancy. In addition, she packed some of the items she would use when her child was born.
There was nothing else she brought. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Warren sent someone to help Amelia move, and they easily sent those things to Warren’s high-end condominium.
“Mr. York said he will come here tonight,” said the man.
When Amelia heard that, her heart skipped a beat, not expecting Warren
to come.
From that day onward, she would have to stay in the condominium for a while.
Amelia simply tidied up and checked the refrigerator, which was already stocked with various fresh ingredients.
When she looked at the time, it was almost evening. Amelia took out some ingredients and started cooking dinner.
Although she was pregnant for more than five months, it didn’t stop her

from cooking.
She just made three dishes and a soup. She wanted to call Warren and ask him when he was coming back, but she remembered that he had blocked her.
When she was in Lofbury, she tried to contact him, but she couldn’t get through. She ended up contacting Frederick before she could reach Warren.
However, things were different then.
Amelia ate her dinner at seven in the evening. But she put the rest of the food away in case Warren came back.
The large living room was much larger than the building behind her concession stand.
Amelia sat on the couch, holding a pillow, reading through a romance novel she had brought from home.
When she was young, she loved to read romance novels. She longed for the love in books.
– Later, the cruel reality made her stop believing in love. Naturally, she
didn’t read such novels anymore.
Somehow, when she was in Lofbury, she saw that romance novel and bought it. Then she put it in her suitcase.
Maybe it was because she had lost love, so she couldn’t help but want to read the romance in the book.
When Warren returned, he saw only the soft lights in the room. Amelia was leaning against the couch and seemed to be resting. An open book lay beside her hand. It seemed that she read until she fell asleep.
He stepped forward. Under the light, her soft, calm face met his eyes.
She was a little more haggard than he remembered. Pregnancy would be a heavy burden on her body for someone of her age, after all.
Warren glanced at the book in her hand. When he saw the title, he raised his eyebrows in surprise.
He remembered that she used to read such novels a long time ago.
He thought she should not be interested in that kind of book anymore.

To his surprise, she read it again.
Warren picked up the book from Amelia’s hand, casually turned it over, and then set it aside. Then he bent down again. As he was about to carry her back to the bedroom, she slowly opened her eyes.
They looked at each other.
The distance between their faces was so close that they could even feel each other’s breath.
For a moment, Amelia thought she was in a dream, still in a trance. She slowly raised her hand and caressed Warren’s face. She felt the warmth in her palm and heard him speak, “Don’t you know that doing this to a man will lead to misunderstandings?”
