The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 1172

Amelia smiled bitterly. “Thank you. But you can’t help me with this.”

Lucas scratched his head and said, “Then take good care of yourself. No matter what difficulties you encounter, life will always go on. Maybe after a few years, you’ll look back on this and realize this was nothing.”

When they were about to reach the hotel, Lucas looked at the towering building with surprise on his face.

He had thought Amelia was staying in an ordinary hotel, not a high-end one like this!

“You’re staying here?”

“It was arranged by a friend,” Amelia said.

At that moment, Lucas’ stomach made a growling sound.

Lucas smiled in embarrassment and said to Amelia, “Please excuse my stomach. I haven’t had time for dinner yet. Anyway, since you’re at the hotel now, I’ll leave first to check out where I can get food.”

“Let’s go together. I happen to be a little hungry,” Amelia said. There happened to be a small diner in front of them, so they headed there and ordered two plates of pasta.

While Lucas was digging into his pasta, Amelia asked, “Now that you’re here in Lofbury, what about Nadine? Who’s taking care of her?”

“There’s an older woman next door. If I have to be out of town, I will ask her to take care of Nadine. I only need to pay her four hundred as a gesture of appreciation,” Lucas said.

“Aren’t you going to remarry Nadine’s mother?” she asked.

“Well, the very reason we got divorced is because we couldn’t stand each other anymore, so why would I remarry her?” Lucas replied. “Anyway, I can also raise Nadine alone. My only regret is that I can’t give her a complete family.”

Amelia bit her lip slightly as she, too, couldn’t give her children a complete family.
