The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike novel Chapter 1223

“I will apply the ointment to the wounds on my body myself,” Warren said. 

“But if you have injuries on your back, you can’t reach them, can you?” Amelia remarked. Then, as if she suddenly realized something, she hurriedly added, “Actually, when Aiden gets injured, I always have him take off his shirt so that I can apply ointment to his wounds. For me, you and Aiden are the same.” 

Her intention was to avoid any awkwardness, but once she said it, the atmosphere around them turned weird. 

He looked at her and asked, “Do you really think I’m the same as 

After hesitating for a moment, she replied, “Well, more or less.” Sh thought, “At the very least, you are both male.” 

Warren then stripped off his bathrobe, revealing his upper body. so? Are we really that alike?” He couldn’t quite articulate why he car much about her words. 

It was as if he did not want her to see him the same way she treated her 

son. 

“It seems like she didn’t treat me as her husband at all. Could it be that 

even if she saw my naked body, she wouldn’t feel anything?” he pondered. 

At that moment, all of Amelia’s attention was focused on the bruises and injuries on Warren’s body. They were mostly bruises from being hit, so they were not too severe, but there were a lot of them, indicating that he had been involved in some intense fights that day. 

She quickly began applying the ointment, and after she finished with his back, she proceeded to apply the ointment to the bruises on his chest. 

Her head subconsciously approached his chest as she carefully applied 

the ointment. 

Suddenly Warren’s body tensed up. He felt her breath on his nose, which 

gave him a somewhat uneasy feeling. 

Hele was concerned that letting her continue in that manner would lead to 

milosing control.

“All done! You need to apply this ointment twice a day. Tomorrow morning, I’ll—” While Amelia was speaking, she looked up and saw Warren’s troubled expression. She was taken aback and quickly inquired, “What is the matter? Did I hurt you while I was applying the ointment earlier?” 

However, Warren just looked at Amelia silently. 

Seeing his lack of response, she became even more concerned. She reached out to touch his face, but he grabbed her wrist firmly and asked, “What are you doing? Are you genuinely concerned about me?” 

“I am concerned about you. What is wrong with that? You were the one who suggested we act like a normal married couple for a year or so,” Amelia replied. 

“I did say that, but your concern right now, and the way you are expressing it, makes me think you have fallen in love with me. Do you really need to put on such a show, Amelia?” His voice had a cold tone t it. 

Hearing that, she was dumbstruck. “Do you think that I’m acting?” 

“Aren’t you? Or you are telling me you have genuinely fallen in love with me?” he asked, slightly mockingly. 

A feeling of bitterness crept into her heart. She had never put on a show in front of him. However, there was no way she could tell him that she had truly fallen in love with him. 

Even if she told him right then and there, it would be pointless. 

Furthermore, when she had previously decided to end her relationship with him, she had already resolved to bury those feelings deep within her heart forever and never tell him. 

“You’re right. I am not in love with you. I will be more careful in the future,” she murmured, lowering her gaze. 

The next second, he immediately released her hand. “Then do not give off any misleading impressions in the future,” he said, putting his bathrobe back on before standing up. 

The moment he stood up, he felt a familiar pain in his heart. 

It was as if he had gone through that agony countless times. It was the heartbreak he felt every time she told him she did not love him.

He had thought he had long forgotten his feelings for her, but now he was feeling the agony again. 

“Why is this happening again?” he thought. 

Subconsciously, Warren clenched both of his fists. Although he kept asking himself in his heart, he couldn’t find the answers. 

Meanwhile, Jennifer had heard Felix talk enthusiastically about a lot of fun places in Lommore, and she insisted on visiting them. Because of that, Rosalie and Jonathan decided to take their three children to Lommore’s scenic spots and attractions. 

However, as Rosalie observed the three children, she couldn’t help but feel that Guillermo seemed like a third wheel. 

Thinking about it, she realized that Felix could be considered Jennifer’s childhood friend, and Karina could also be considered Zaid’s childhood friend. Guillermo was the only one who had never had a childhood friend. 

“What are you thinking about?” Jonathan asked. 

The three children on the cruise ship curiously looked around at the scenery on the lake. Felix then proceeded to describe all of the breathtaking scenery to them, almost as if reciting a textbook.
