Chapter 1190
Amelia looked at the exquisitely decorated house with an area of more than 3,000 square feet in front of her. Everything was new, like a show house. She felt that all that was necessary was already furnished in the house. The only thing that was lacking might be the atmosphere of life!
But Amelia replied to Warren, “Okay. I’ll think about it then.”
“Also, you will move here in the next two days. I’ll send someone to help you move your things,” he said.
“In the next two days?” She was surprised. “Isn’t it too soon?”
“Too soon? So, when do you want to delay it until?” He asked, “Amelia, you were in such a rush when you asked me to agree to your request. Now, when I want you to fulfill the terms of exchange between us, you’re telling me that it’s too soon.”
Amelia was speechless and looked at the person in front of her a little helplessly..
The look in her eyes suddenly made his heart soften. He pursed his thin lips and said, “I will try my best to do what I promised you, so in the same way, I also hope that you can do what you promised me.”
“Okay… I’ll live with you like a normal couple, but…” She bit her lips slightly and said rather stiffly, “With how my body is now, I can’t do what married couples do with you. I hope you…”
“What? Do you think I want you?” Warren suddenly sneered, “Do you think I’m interested in a pregnant or postpartum woman? How attractive do you think you are to think I want you?”
Amelia’s face suddenly turned red. What he said was like telling her not to flatter herself.
She lowered her head and thought, “Yeah. How could he want me now that things have come to this?”
“I’ll take you home,” Warren said.
When they arrived at the concession stand, Warren said, “Amelia, I hope you can properly play the role of a good wife for the next year. When time is up, I will naturally grant your freedom.”
At the same time, he would also grant himself freedom.

Amelia’s eyelashes trembled slightly. When she heard the words “your freedom,” her heart suddenly hurt.
Actually, she had never been truly free.
“I got it. I’ll be a good wife,” she said, not for this agreement but only for the last moments they have to spend together.
When she grew old, she could have these sweet memories to look back
She closed the car door and walked towards the concession stand.
Warren looked at her silhouette with a complicated look in his eyes. Even if he had forgotten about the past relationship, he still remembered how much he had hoped to become a real couple with her before.
He would just take this as fulfilling his wish.
After that, he probably wouldn’t have any lingering concerns about her
anymore.
That was what he told himself.
Matilda was also surprised when she learned that Amelia would soon move to live with Warren. “That fast?”
“Yeah, it’ll be in the two days.” Amelia said, “But it’s not too bad. It’s not far; just two stops away from here. I can come over easily. I’ll need you to take care of Aiden for the next few days.”
“Aiden is my grandson. It’s my duty to take care of him. I’m worried about you, though. You’re pregnant, and he is a man. Can he take good care of you?” Matilda asked worriedly.
Amelia comforted her by saying, “If he really can’t take care of me, he will find someone to take care of me. Besides, when he is away, I can also come over! I guess I’ll still come here during the day and go back at night, so I won’t be with him for 24 hours.”
“You’re right.” Matilda thought for a while and felt relieved again. Anyway, if Amelia couldn’t move easily, she would go to their residence to take care of her during the day or find someone to help out at the concession stand temporarily.
The next day, Amelia told her Aiden about the move.
But for Aiden, she could only use the excuse that she had to stay with

Warren and rest because of her pregnancy.
Aiden said sensibly, “Have a good rest and give birth to my brother or sister safely, Mommy. I’ll be good and take care of Granny!”
Amelia looked at her sensible son and felt kind of sad.
If she and Warren hadn’t reached this point, Aiden would have been a privileged child. He would be living an enviable life for many people. He should not be this sensible at such a young age.
He was less than ten years old but had gone through more things than ordinary children.
“Okay, I will give birth to your younger sibling safely,” Amelia said.
Aiden suddenly hugged Amelia. “Mommy, will you really come back? If I have a younger brother or sister, w-will you still like me?”
Amelia was stunned. “What’s wrong? Of course, I will come back. Even after you have a younger brother or sister, I will still like you, Aiden! Did someone say something to you?”
Aiden buried his head in Amelia’s arms without saying a word.
His classmates in school also knew about Amelia’s pregnancy. Some told him that since she was pregnant with his younger sibling, she would like them more, especially since his younger sibling would be healthier than him. Adults would definitely prefer a healthy child to a sick child.
Although Aiden was also looking forward to meeting his younger sibling, he couldn’t help but worry. What if Amelia really didn’t like him anymore?
It was just that he had never told others about his panic and fear.
“Aiden, if someone told you that I won’t like you after having your younger sibling, don’t believe them. Even after I give birth, you are irreplaceable, okay?” Amelia said softly.
Her gentle voice seemed to calm Aiden’s anxiety.
“Irreplaceable?” he murmured.
“It means ‘very important. You’re very important…” Amelia hugged her son. “Aiden, you know what? You give me the courage to continue living. When I was going through hell, I survived because of you. If it weren’t for you, then I might not be so brave. My bravery is all because of you.”

It was also at that time that she understood what “women become strong after becoming mothers” meant.
“Mommy, I’m your courage.” Aiden looked up at Amelia.
“Yes, you are my courage. So, how could I not like you?” Amelia said.
She just wanted to make it up to Aiden as much as she could.
