Chapter 1085
“Why in the world did I even go through all that trouble just to rouse her hatred?” cursed Warren to himself.
“Warren York, after so many years, why are you still so dumb?” he murmured under his breath.
A long time later, he finally started the car but drove aimlessly on Strico’s roads until night fell and the moon shone brightly in the sky. Only then did he realize he had driven to the front of the concession stand again.
The shutters of the concession stand had already been closed, and only the light pouring out from the window indicated that the people inside were still awake.
Warren got out of the car but didn’t go to the concession stand. Instead, he leaned against the car door and just stood in silence.
When Amelia was about to go to bed and went to pull the curtains, she inadvertently caught sight of Warren standing outside the window by his car and couldn’t help but freeze.
Still, a moment later, she shut the curtains and ignored the person outside.
“It’d be best if we meet less in the future!” she pondered.
Amelia turned around, picked up the bruise ointment in the first aid box, and told Aiden to take off his clothes so that she could apply it to him.
Aiden’s petite frame had several bruises caused by his recent training.
These bruises were much more than when he practiced boxing before.
Every time she saw the bruises on her son, she couldn’t resist persuading him to forget it and switch back to boxing. After all, it would also strengthen his physique.
Yet, Aiden insisted on training in his current skill, even if it meant having more injuries.
“Mommy, the teacher said that my movements are much more flexible than before. Once I become stronger in the future, I will be able to protect you and my sister!” he informed.
Amelia instinctively smiled. “How do you know that I’m pregnant with a

girl? What if it’s a boy?”
“If it’s a boy, I will also protect him, but I will teach him combat arts and train him to be strong as well,” the boy replied, then looked at her belly seriously. “But I still think that you’re pregnant with a girl.”
Amelia chuckled, but she had to admit that she, indeed, once hoped to have a son and a daughter.
“By the way, Mommy, when can I see Lillian and her baby?” Ever since Aiden learned that Lillian had given birth to a baby, he had always wanted to see the child.
However, as Lillian was in a coma in the hospital previously, Amelia didn’t tell Aiden about it and simply said that Lillian and the newborn needed space to rest now and that it was not convenient for too many people to visit them in the hospital. She told him they could only go after
some time.
“Hmm, I’ll take you to see her and the baby in a few days. She will
certainly be elated to see you,” Amelia said.
“Okay! I will also protect Yasmin and treat her like a little sister!”
After applying the medicine to her son, she helped him put on his pajamas and covered him with a quilt before lying down as well.
In the middle of the night, Amelia, who was initially asleep, suddenly had a layer of cold sweat covering her forehead. Her brows were tightly knitted as she mumbled something. Gradually, her head shook from side to side as if she wanted to break free from something.
“Aaah!” All of a sudden, she opened her eyes and sat up in a panic, only to realize that she was merely having a nightmare just now.
In her dream, the experience of being taken to the operating room by Warren today was repeated again, but in it, he did not stop the operation and instead insisted on proceeding with it. The anesthetic needle then penetrated into her body. She wanted to struggle and escape, but she couldn’t move her body at all.
“Luckily… it’s just a dream!” she thought.
Amelia took a deep breath and took a gander at her son, who was sleeping next to her. Aiden was still fast asleep, apparently not awakened by her.

She got up and went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water but ended up seeing Warren leaning against the car outside the window a second time.
His posture was the same as she had seen earlier.
However, it had already been several hours since then!
Amelia gripped the glass in her hand. A long while later, she finally put it down and walked toward the door.
As soon as she opened the door, Warren seemed to hear the noise in that direction and immediately raised his head to look toward it. The next second, her figure came into his view.
Inexplicably, Warren’s eyes turned damp.
He supposed that even if she saw him standing outside, she would not take a second look at him. To his shock, she actually came to see him.
Amelia walked toward Warren step by step but halted when she was three steps away from him.
Warren subconsciously took a step forward, yet she took a step back in
response.
“Don’t move. Just maintain this distance!” she said.
Warren’s eyes flickered with gloom. With that, he stayed still and answered, “All right, I won’t move!”
