The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 729

Amelia asserted, “The decision regarding my son’s stay does not rest with you.” She grasped her son’s hand,

intending to depart and soothe his distress.

Considering the presence of numerous parents in the vicinity, she was reluctant to allow the disagreement to

further embarrass Aiden.

In an abrupt outburst, that same parent exclaimed, “Why must our children share a kindergarten with a child

whose parent has a criminal history? I believe a criminal’s child is predisposed to criminality. It might even be

genetic!”

She voiced her opinion loudly, clearly intending for everyone nearby to hear. In an instant, the gaze of all parents

shifted toward Amelia and her son.

Amelia came to a standstill, turned, and leveled a cold, angry stare at the offending parent. “I cannot recall any

past grievances that justify such venomous words from you. Moreover, your remarks, spoken in the presence of

children, are utterly inappropriate. I insist on an apology for my son. He has never engaged in any unlawful

behavior, and you are not entitled to maliciously speculate about his future in this manner!”

The parent, momentarily taken aback by Amelia’s assertiveness, retorted with a shrewd glare, “You expect me to

apologize? Who do you think you are, demanding such a thing? Just because you were incarcerated before, do

believe you have that right?”

you

“You!” Amelia glared at her. The memory of her time in jail was the deepest pain in her heart and the origin of all

her suffering.

Despite this, she refused to let her son be ridiculed that day, no matter the cost. Allowing such an incident to

transpire could scar him for life.

She gripped her son’s hand tightly and fixed her angry gaze on the woman before her. “If you refuse to apologize, I

will take legal action against you. Regardless of the time and energy it requires, I am determined to ensure you

make amends to my son!”

With unwavering resolve, she vowed to see this through before her last breath. Perhaps, it was one of the few acts

she could perform for Aiden.

“Haha, considering legal action, are you? I find it utterly amusing that someone with a criminal record dares to

threaten others with lawsuits!” that woman remarked with a sneer, and she dismissed Amelia’s intentions without a

second thought.

Just then, a deep male voice resonated through the air. “If you refuse to apologize, prepare yourself for a court

summons. What lies ahead won’t merely be a demand for an apology when the time comes. I promise you, I will

pursue damages that could financially ruin you and leave you with no support

whatsoever!”

The icy tone and fierce demeanor of the speaker silenced the arrogant woman abruptly, leaving her to gaze at the

person before her in shock.

This woman also had Amelia’s history on the Internet. Naturally, she had come across those online images of

Warren and was well aware of his appearance. Initially, she had assumed that Warren would harbor disdain for a

child with disabilities.

However, Warren was standing before her now, and it was evident that he intended to defend Amelia.

Besides, Warren’s background had long been explicitly detailed on the Internet. Although there were whispers and

jokes about Warren being “The Magnanimous. Cuckold” due to the incident with Irene, no one dared utter such

words in his

presence.

Furthermore, in recent news, Warren had personally reported a series of crimes. within the Fletcher family,

including fraud. He had even provided meticulous evidence, leading to the detention of three members of the

Fletcher family by the police.

Consequently, Warren had also earned the moniker of a ruthless individual on the Internet.

Given his ruthlessness toward someone who was once his fiancée, there was no doubt that he could display the

same cruelty to a stranger.

The woman’s expression contorted into a hideous grimace, fear flickering across her face.

After all, she hailed from an ordinary family. Although her family was relatively well-off, and her husband held a

high-ranking position in the department, in comparison to Warren, they were significantly less influential.

If Warren indeed pursued legal action against her, her family would find themselves in a precarious situation.

Initially, she had intentionally sought to draw the attention of the other parents around her, hoping to put Amelia in

a miserable position. However, the tables had turned, and now all eyes were fixed upon her, leaving her the one

feeling

thoroughly embarrassed.

Overwhelmed with shame, fear, and anxiety, the woman stammered in frustration, “I-I apologize for my senseless

words earlier. Mr. York, please overlook my thoughtless remarks!”

“Do not apologize to me, but to my son. And…” He paused, hesitating briefly before adding, “To my son’s mother as

well!”

At that moment, he found himself at a loss for words, uncertain how to define the relationship between him and

Amelia.

The woman’s face flushed with embarrassment and awkwardness. Eager to escape the situation, she hastily turned

to Amelia and Aiden. “I’m truly sorry. I spoke

thoughtlessly earlier. I-I apologize to both of you. I promise I will never utter such words again. Please forgive me!”

After uttering her apologies, the woman swiftly grabbed her son and hurriedly made her exit.

Amelia lowered her head and said to Aiden, “Let’s head back. Granny is waiting for us at home.”

“Mommy, what does ‘illegitimate child’ mean?” the young boy suddenly inquired.

Amelia froze, and Warren, standing beside them, tensed visibly. A fleeting pang of pain flickered in his eyes.

Before Amelia could respond, Warren spoke up. “Aiden, I’m sorry. It’s my fault, but I can assure you that you are

not an illegitimate child. You are the only child in my life.”

Aiden, however, pursed his lips and glared at Warren. Clearly, he still remembered what Warren had said in the

park last time.

Observing his son’s hostile stance, Warren couldn’t help but take a couple of forward. “Aiden.”

steps

“Mommy, let’s go home,” the little boy said, turning his head away from Warren. It was evident he didn’t want to

talk to his father.

Aiden had resolved not to like his father anymore. His decision stemmed from his dad’s disdain for him and scolding

toward his mother, leading to her sadness.

For Aiden, having just himself, his mom, and granny at home was sufficient. There was no need for his dad in their

lives.

Observing his son’s demeanor, disappointment flickered in Warren’s eyes. However, Warren acknowledged that he

had brought this upon himself, and he had no right to complain about it.

Seeing that Amelia was about to leave with Aiden, Warren rushed forward and said urgently, “Amelia, I will help you

clear your name. I’ll gather all the necessary evidence. I won’t let you carry the burden of a criminal any longer,

and no one will dare to speak of you like this in the future!”

Everything that occurred that day inflicted unparalleled pain upon him, sparking deep regret for his past actions.

The wrongful case back then was driven purely by revenge for him. At that time, he believed she would only have

to endure a three-and-a-half-year prison

sentence.

He even considered the Haab family’s daughter to be inadequately punished.

But now, he realized that her punishment extended far beyond three and a half years. He understood that being

labeled a prisoner had a profound impact on her life and on their children’s lives as well.
