Chapter 719
He felt as though he was standing on the edge of a cliff. Even if he moved the tiniest bit, he would shatter his entire body.
“You took money and said as you were told?” Warren spat out with anger in his eyes. “Aren’t you a doctor? Isn’t it your job to save lives and heal the wounded? Instead, you’re hurting people! You caused an innocent person to go to prison!” The man was startled by Warren’s anger and stammered, “I-I just said in court that Irene was pregnant and had a miscarriage. I didn’t say anything else! Mr. York, were you not the one who testified in court that Irene was pushed down the stairs by that woman?”
His words were like a slap across Warren’s face, causing the latter to be speechless. At that time, it was indeed he who appeared in court to testify that he saw Amelia push Irene down the stairs.
His testimony was the most crucial one. It was because of his testimony that the judge finally found Amelia guilty.
Warren didn’t know what to say for a moment, and the blood in his body seemed as though it was frozen.
“If Irene was not pregnant at that time, there would be no so-called miscarriage. Warren, you testified that you saw blood staining Irene’s dress. Isn’t it suspicious where the blood came from?” Rosalie said.
Warren’s lips trembled. He closed his eyes and began to think about the scene back then.
“Irene made such a complete preparation and then fell down the stairs. She said that Amelia pushed her down the stairs. It’s not predictable when one would be pushed down the stairs. Despite that, Irene predicted it accurately and even prepared the blood in advance. Is she a psychic? Warren, did you really see Amelia push her at that time? Or did you simply take Irene’s word for it and think that it was Amelia’s doing? Back then, if you had even the slightest doubt and looked into the matter, you would have known the truth! But you were eager to take revenge on Amelia, so Irene handed you the knife, and you stabbed Amelia with it. Even if you had some doubts at that time, I’m afraid you would have ignored them!”
Rosalie’s words seemed like torture to Warren, causing him immense pain.
It turned out that what he owed Amelia and his wrongdoings were more than he thought.
“That’s enough. Stop talking about it!” Warren murmured.
“Is that enough? It’s not enough!” Rosalie continued, “Warren, do you know that you have ruined Amelia’s relationships and her entire life? Do you know what it’s like to go to prison? Do you know what she endured in prison? You have never

suffered the pain Amelia felt. How could you say that this is enough?”
Warren suddenly opened his eyes, panting. His lips trembled, and he opened his mouth as if he wanted to ask something, but in the end, he didn’t ask anything. Instead, he turned around numbly and left the room.
As he walked out, every step he took felt extremely heavy.
It was as if all his strength was being drawn away from his body, and waves of pain swept through him incessantly.
“Yes, Rosalie was right. Irene was the one who handed me the knife, and I was the one who actually stabbed Amelia with it! If I didn’t testify in court back then, Amelia might never have been sent to prison. What really happened was… All I saw was the ending. I only saw Irene falling down the stairs and didn’t see Amelia ‘pushing’ her at all. Yet, in court, I said that Amelia pushed Irene down the stairs! It was I who sent the love of my life to prison!” he thought.
Warren suddenly staggered and fell to the ground on his knees. He swung his fists and beat himself hard on the chest.
“It hurts! My heart hurts so much!” he roared internally.
No matter how hard he beat himself, it seemed impossible to release the pain.
“Ahhh!” He let out a hoarse scream, sounding on the brink of tears.
The scenes of the past flashed past his mind.
She kept telling him that she was wronged, but he didn’t believe it at all. At that time, he only wanted to revenge on her and the Haab family. He practically hoped that she had really pushed Irene down the stairs.
That was because that was the only way he could make her end up miserably and free himself of any guilt.
He had used the law as a sharp blade and stabbed her all over.
He had trodden over her dignity, pride, and innocence, crushing them under his feet.
“Warren, do you believe that loving couples are meant to grow old together?”
“Do you?”
“Of course! If a person really loved another, they would never fall in love with. someone else in their life. If they fell in love with someone else, it could only be said that the person they previously fell in love with was not their true love. I hope we can grow old together.”
“So, am I your true love?”
“Yes, my one and only. I, Amelia, will only ever love Warren York in this life and won’t ever fall for another person!”
She only loved him!
Back then, she was innocent and beautiful. She loved him so openly and
