The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike novel Chapter 535

Chapter 535 

However, according to Rosalie’s investigation, Warren had always been proud and arrogant, so she hoped that it would work one way or another. 

If not, she would have no choice but to ask Callum to arrange a new job for Amelia. 

Rosalie turned around and left once she said her piece, whereas Warren turned to look at Irene, who was beside him. “Why did you do it?” 

Irene blanched and bit her red lip lightly, replying, “I just… wanted to help you. I know how much you want to obtain custody. If… If Amelia doesn’t have enough income, the court… will never award custody to her.” 

Warren pursed his thin lips and gazed at Irene with his dark eyes intensely. 

Guilt washed over Irene as she felt like he was seeing through her. In reality, she didn’t send people to trouble Amelia for the custody case at all. She simply wanted to vent her anger. 

After all, it was because of Amelia and Aiden that Warren unexpectedly left the banquet that was meant to announce their wedding date, making her a laughingstock in the entire city. 

“Do not do such a thing again. Don’t interfere in the custody case!” Warren rebuked. 

Irene hummed softly in acknowledgment, then wore a remorseful, helpless expression. “I’m sorry, Warren. I was just trying to help you, but I didn’t know you wouldn’t like it… I’ll listen to you and stop doing it in the future. Don’t be mad anymore, okay?” 

Seeing Irene’s pitiful demeanor, Warren sighed faintly, “I’m not mad.” 

“Really? I… I thought you were mad at me because of Amelia. I’m so afraid that you still have feelings for her.” While speaking, Irene clutched Warren’s arm as if she genuinely feared losing this man.” 

Amelia’s face emerged in Warren’s mind once more, and he recalled how she had cried before him and said she never wanted to cross paths with him again. The scene where she ruthlessly pricked her abdomen with the broken glass also replayed in his head, alongside how pale she was when she panicked and begged him not to fight for Aiden’s custody. 

He thought, ‘Why? Why is it that every time I think about these, my heart seems to be aching mildly? 

Because of lingering feelings? But I’ve never fallen for that woman at all. How could there possibly be lingering feelings? I was only kind to her for revenge.” 

Warren was initially supposed to take revenge on Amelia’s father, but since the man was long dead, he took revenge on Amelia instead. 

Therefore, he was confident he would never have any lingering feelings for Amelia. 

“You’re overthinking things. Don’t think too much anymore. You’re the only one I love,” Warren said in a deep voice. 

Irene flashed a smile, lowered her head gently, and leaned against his arm, saying tenderly, “I love you, Warren. I truly love you so much that I will do anything for you.” 

She thought, ‘Yes, I’ll do anything, including completely erasing Amelia from your heart! 

The man that I, Irene Fletcher, want must only have me in his heart! There needs to be no other women!” 

As Rosalie had finished her business at the banquet today, she planned to inform Lillian before leaving. 

When she found Lillian, the latter was gazing at a popular male celebrity of the entertainment industry with starry eyes seemingly conversing with the other party, while Callum, who stood aside, appeared helpless and glum. 

Rosalie could understand Callum’s current mood, but this was inevitable, for Lillian was a fangirl of celebrities. Since Callum brought Lillian here, he ought to have expected such a scene in advance. 

Still, based on Rosalie’s understanding of her best friend, no matter how hyped up Lillian was over a certain celebrity, it never went beyond pure admiration. For Lillian, the one she loved had always been Callum. 

The fact that Callum was willing to accompany Lillian here like this was also a kind of indulgence and love. 

Rosalie was glad for Lillian to meet such a supportive boyfriend and find happiness. She hoped that the latter would continue to live in such bliss for the rest of her life. 

and 

Only after Lillian finished talking with that popular celebrity did Rosalie approach and say, “I’m leaving now. Just came to let you know.” 

Lillian said in surprise, “You’re going back so soon? Why? Stay a little longer! It’s such a rare opportunity to meet so many celebrities today.” 

Rosalie replied, “Go ahead without me. You should know that I’m, um… not that interested in celebrities.” 

Lillian gave it a thought and agreed with that sentiment, so she stopped persuading Rosalie to stay. “Have you met Irene and 

“Yeah, we’ve talked. As for whether Amelia will have any more troubles, we’ll have to see.” Rosalie leaned close and whispered to her friend, “Hey, even if you’re excited to meet celebrities, at least consider your boyfriend’s feelings.” 

“It’s fine. My Callum is the most understanding man ever,” stated Lillian confidently. 

“Understanding?” parroted Rosalie inwardly. At this moment, she genuinely sympathized with the “understanding” Callum a 

little. 

“All right, I’ll get going, then,” Rosalie said. 

Then, she walked toward the exit of the venue, musing that Calvin was likely with Fiona now. She decided to thank him and return the gown she currently wore tomorrow. 

Just as she was lost in her thoughts, her arm was grabbed by someone out of nowhere. When she looked back, Calvin’s face instantly came into her view.
