Chapter 1033
Amelia looked at her son and asked, “Do you like Nadine very much?”
“Yeah. Nadine is as cute as Jen,” Aiden said. “If she and Jen see each other next time, maybe they will also become good friends.”
“Maybe. Well, you haven’t finished your homework today. Go and do it,” said Amelia to her son.
When Aiden went to do his homework in the room, Matilda walked up to her daughter and said, “Lucas is really good. It’s not convenient for a man to raise a daughter by himself. In fact, you and him…”
“Mom, are you trying to be a matchmaker again? Is this why you deliberately invited Lucas for a meal today?” Amelia asked directly and seemed to have seen through her mother’s thoughts.
“I just want you two to know each other more. You need to spend more time together for feelings to develop,” Matilda said.
Amelia smiled slightly at this. Contrary to Matilda’s words, Amelia fell in love with Warren at first sight. When it came to falling in love with someone, she always felt that she would fall in love at first sight. Otherwise, she did not think she would fall in love with the other person no matter how long of a time they had spent together.
Her mind was full of self-deprecating thoughts once she thought of Warren. “Mom, I’ll go take out the trash. Don’t worry about my relationship or lack thereof. I only treat Lucas as a friend!”
After she said that, Amelia carried the trash bag and walked outside.
The night wind outside made her cheeks a little cold, and she subconsciously shrank her neck. Amelia knew that her mother was afraid that she would have a hard life with Aiden after Matilda was gone.
However, it was really hard for Amelia to imagine herself being with another man for the rest of her life. It was as if all her emotions related to romantic love had been exhausted during her time in prison.
Just as Amelia dumped the garbage and walked back to the concession stand, someone suddenly grabbed her wrist from behind.
“Ah!” she exclaimed in surprise before she stumbled and was dragged to the side.

Chapter 1033
The next moment, she was thrown into the back seat of a car, and someone immediately pressed down on her.
The familiar presence shocked Amelia, and she immediately guessed who it was.
Before she could say anything, that person already kissed her lips eagerly as if trying to prove something by it. This resulted in Amelia gasping for breaths.
There was no light inside the narrow space, and everything was dim. Only the moonlight shone through the window glass and provided a little light source inside the car.
Amelia struggled and tried to push the other person away, but the person was so strong that her struggles were in vain. Instead, the person held her wrists tightly with one hand, pressed his body against hers, and made her unable to move.
The atmosphere in the car turned amorous. After a long time, the person finally stopped kissing her. His lips were still pressed against the corner of her lips, and a hoarse voice rang out in the car. “Are you planning to date Lucas?”
Amelia’s body trembled as her guess was proven correct. It was indeed Warren.
She stiffened as she looked at the man’s face, which was within her reach, also looked up. The moonlight from the window fell on him and bathed half of his face in light while the other half was left in the dark.
There was an obsession, struggle, pain, and jealousy on his face. They formed a complex expression.
In response, Amelia pulled her hand away from him and slapped him hard.
Slap!
A crisp sound of a slap rang in the car. Warren’s face was tilted by the impact, while Amelia only felt a burning pain in her palm.
“Warren, I thought I’ve already made it clear to you. I thought you also agreed for us to never disturb each other’s life from now on. What exactly do you think you’re doing now?”
“What do you think?” Warren laughed bitterly to himself. “It’s because I

love you so much that I can’t let you go!”
“But I don’t love you anymore! I have already given up on you!” Amelia struggled to push him away, but her effort was hampered by his strength.
“So you’re going to date Lucas, right?” Warren asked.
Amelia glared at him and said, “That’s none of your business!”
Warren’s eyes suddenly narrowed, and the expression on his face became cold. “What’s so good about a man like Lucas? What can he give you?”
“What’s wrong with a man like him? At least he won’t hurt me or send me to prison!” Amelia blurted out.
In an instant, Warren’s face turned pale, and his grip on her loosened immediately with it.
Amelia took the opportunity to push Warren away and hurriedly got out of the car. Just as she was about to run away quickly, Warren’s voice suddenly rang out from behind her, saying, “Amelia, you can’t be with
Lucas.”
Amelia suddenly paused in her haste and turned around, only to see Warren standing quietly by the car. His temperament was somewhat dangerous in its silence at the moment. The way he spoke, however, was so calm as if he was only stating a fact.
She bit her lip and said, “Warren, whether I want to be with anyone or not, that’s all entirely up to me. You don’t have any say in it! You are not a god, and I am not an ant that you can trample on and order as you wish!”
Amelia left without looking back after she said that and left Warren standing frozen in place alone.
