Chapter 1038

A sudden burst of laughter escaped Amelia. She guffawed louder by the second, eventually choking herself up.

After quite some time, she stopped choking altogether, and there were trails of tears in the corner of her eyes. “You ask me to marry you, Warren?” Her voice reeked of mockery as if she had heard the funniest joke in the universe.

Warren’s mien darkened at that. “Yes, I want you to marry me.”

“You… How could you blurt out such a thing that easily?” That retort of hers was almost squeezed out of her gnashed teeth.

To be honest, what the man said was what she had longed for the most, but unfortunately, it had come to her in such a situation. Never could she fathom just how shameless he was to say that to her.

“I know that it was all my fault back then! Amelia, not a day has gone by without me regretting it for the past five years! I… I’m not expecting you to still have feelings for me one day, but… let me take care of you and Aiden, okay? I want to give you guys a better life and protect you all from harm!”

“No need, Mr. York!” refuted Amelia coldly. “If you ask me to stay just to tell me this, I can tell you loud and clear right now that I’ll never marry you, Warren York!”

After saying that, she was all ready to wheel around and walk off.

Once more, Warren latched onto the woman’s wrist. “Do you still hope to see Aiden be discriminated against and picked on like today?”

Amelia’s body trembled on that note. His words appeared to hit her weak spot, causing a crack in her heavily armed armor.

Aiden had always been what she cared about the most, much more important than her own life.

Observing her silence, Warren added, “Let me take you home first.”

“No, I can go back by myself!” She struggled to break free of his fingers.
