He suddenly felt an emotion welling up in his heart, one that he couldnât even describe.
At that moment, the car stopped at the entrance of the hotel. Warren got out of the car while Amelia followed, holding Aidenâs hand.
Of course, Warren was staying in the presidential suite of the hotel.
It was Aidenâs first time entering the presidential suite. Everything here was a surprise to him. He even widened his eyes when he looked at the 70-inch LCD TV screen, and his eyes were filled with curiosity.
However, after the initially fresh experience, Aiden gradually became sleepy.
He was originally going to take a nap after lunch. However, since he was getting on the high-speed train, he was so excited that he couldnât sleep. Now, he was sound asleep.
Amelia looked at her son, who was sleeping in her arms. She said to Warren, âCan Aiden sleep in this room? If thereâs anything you want to talk to me about, letâs do it in another room. I donât want Aiden to hear anything he shouldnât be hearing at his age.â
When Warren heard that, his gaze turned dark. Then, he left the room without a word.
Amelia walked over to the bed and carefully set Aiden on the bed. Then, she gently covered Aiden with a thin quilt.
She gently stroked Aidenâs tender cheek with her hand.
She knew that there were some things that she couldnât avoid once she encountered them. But even so, she had to let Aiden stay with her no matter what.
She wanted to watch him grow up, and she wanted Aiden to have a better future than she ever had. ·
At that moment, Amelia failed to notice that Warren was looking at her with a complicated gaze outside the room.
He never thought that he would see her play the role of a mother one day. But he couldnât look away when he saw her place the child on the bed with great care. She was looking at Aiden with an incomparably gentle gaze.
He wanted to watch her just like that, always and foreverâ¦
Amelia took a deep breath and straightened up. Then, she walked out of the room and gently closed the door. Looking at Warren, she asked, âWhat do you want to talk about?â
âYou did everything you could to avoid me just for the sake of this child?â Warren questioned coldly. At the same time, he mocked himself in his heart for the feelings he held moments ago. He couldnât believe that he had wanted to keep watching Amelia like that!
He thought, âThis woman isnât even that good that I would watch her forever!â
âI avoided you simply because I didnât want to see you again. Mr. York, have you forgotten? Back then, I said that we would never be involved with each other again.â
Warrenâs expression suddenly turned foul.
In all those years, her words had always appeared in his dreams like a nightmare, and he would always wake up in terror! âEnough!â Warren shouted, âAmelia, you seriously donât want to see me, do you? But unfortunately, I sincerely want to see birth to my child!â you. Also, I didnât expect you to be bolder than I imagined. I canât believe that you gave They didnât get a DNA test, but Aidenâs eyes were similar enough to his. Also, Aidenâs age was enough proof for him to believe that Aiden was his child!
âYour child?â Amelia suddenly chuckled. âWarren, I canât believe you have the nerve to say that. Donât tell me that you forgot what you said back then. You said that I would never be pregnant with your child, and you also told me that even if I was truly pregnant, you would force me to get rid of the baby! So how could Aiden possibly be your child?â
Every word she said was like a heavy hammer that kept hitting his heart, causing him waves of pain.
It hurt.
He didnât understand why it hurt So much.
He had once sworn that he would never allow the Haab family to hurt him ever again. But now, she had caused him so much. pain with just a few words.
âWe just have to get a DNA test to figure out whether he is my son or not.â Warren discreetly suppressed the pain in his heart.
âDonât bother. Heâs not your son!â Amelia said anxiously.
âItâs not up to you to decide,â Warren said coldly. âIf he is my child, then he should return to the York family!â
Ameliaâs face suddenly turned even paler. She screamed, âNo!â
Her voice was so Ìear-piercing that even Warren was stunned.
âHeâs the son you abandoned. What right do you have to get him to return to the York family? No one in the York family has ever expected his existence, anyway!â Amelia said angrily. But in comparison, to her, Aiden was all she had.
âHe has the blood of my family running in his veins, and thatâs all the reason I need. I donât intend to let my child run wild,â Warren said.
Amelia suddenly fell silent. Her slender body kept trembling, and there was a look of despair on her pale face at that moment.
In an instant, Warren felt even more pain in his heart.
âSo you want him to be Ireneâs child? Youâre going to take him away from me?â Amelia said in a broken voice.
Warren frowned subconsciously.
He hadnât thought about that.
âI will never allow Aiden to call that woman his mom. Warren, donât you ever dare think of turning Aiden into that womanâs son!â Amelia said.
Irene was the one who set her up back then, and Warren only made it worse by choosing to believe Irene.
If it werenât for that, Amelia wouldnât have gone to jail. She was forced to spend the best years of her life in prison!
She couldnât let Aiden return to the York family and stay with that woman.
Moreover, she knew that people like Irene wouldnât treat Aiden well.
Her words seemed to have provoked him. He snorted. âDonât I ever dare think of doing that? Amelia, who are you to say that?â
âIâm Aidenâs mom. Thatâs all the reason I need!â At that moment, her body was still trembling, and her face was still extremely pale. Her hands were clenched into fists as if she were trying to control the fear in her heart.
She would do anything for the sake of Aiden.
âIs that so? Then Iâll strip you of your rights!â Warren said coldly, âAiden is bound to return to the York family. As for you, you wonât even have the right to see him in the future!â
Ameliaâs body shook, staggering. She seemed like she was about to fall. She felt like she was stepping on the edge of a cliff at that moment. If she wasnât careful, she would be dashed to pieces.
She looked at the man in front of her with a blank gaze.
She had once loved this man deeply. But now, she could hardly believe that he was forcing her into despair.
âWarren, how did I ever fall in love with a man like you?â she murmured. She wasnât sure if she was feeling regretful, hopeless, or pathetic.
Falling in love with him must have been the biggest mistake of her life.
