The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 1169

“I’m sorry,” Amelia said, “I didn’t know what else to do so that you would meet and talk to me, so I could

only do that.”

“I probably used to love you very much, didn’t I?” he said indifferently.

She was stunned, and a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes. The way he phrased his words was

really strange, especially with the use of “probably.”

“But no matter how much I loved you in the past, I don’t have any love for you now, not even a shred of

it, let alone feel sympathy or softheartedness. So even if you go to my office every day, I will not agree

to your request because of heartache. Instead, that will only make me feel more disgusted with you.”

Warren turned around and looked at Amelia with his dark eyes.

His cold eyes were so dark that she couldn’t tell what was going on in his head, and the lack of

emotions didn’t help.

It was as if all the love he had for her had vanished and become a thing of the past.

“I know I said a lot of heartless words when I was in the hospital that caused you to hate me. But

Warren, you can continue to hate me, even punish me. I accept all these things. But please, don’t let

your grudge against me bleed into other matters! As long as you agree to let Alicia go, I’m willing to do

anything!” Amelia pleaded.

“Anything?” Warren raised his eyebrows and said casually, “So what if I asked you to become a real

couple with me? To have you stay with me for the rest of your life and never leave?”

Her hands, hanging down by her sides, tightened slightly before she met his cold eyes.



Once, he had said something similar. At that time, his eyes were full of longing and expectation, as if

her answer was the most important thing in this world.

But now, his eyes were so cold and completely devoid of feelings.

“Okay!” She heard her voice answering.

In response, he scoffed and sneered, “Amelia, do you really think I still

want you that much? I asked that simply because I wanted to know how disdainful you used to be of

me.”

It was also a way for him to understand further just how unworthy his love used to be!

She was stunned and looked at him blankly.

He approached her step by step, raised his hand, and gently stroked her cheeks as he did back in the

hospital. “Back then, no matter how desperately I pleaded with you, you adamantly refused. Yet now,

because of Riley, you’re willing to gamble away the rest of your life?”

Her body trembled slightly.

His voice continued to sound in her ears. “Loving you was probably the least worthwhile thing I’ve ever

done. Amelia, you got one thing wrong in your earlier words. I refuse to agree to your request, not

because I still hate you for your previous heartlessness, but because I no longer love you at all.



Similarly, I don’t hate you. I have no feelings for you anymore. Therefore, what you just agreed to has

no appeal to me at all. I don’t want you to stay with me for the rest of your life, nor do I need you.”

Amelia’s face turned pale, ‘and she looked a little unsteady on her feet.

“Did I hurt you so badly that you…”

His thin lips opened lightly to spit out the answer, “No, it’s just that I have forgotten my feelings for you.”

She was puzzled. “What do you mean by that?”

“You know about how Rosalie fell off the cliff and Jonathan lost his memory, don’t you? At that time,

Jonathan was not really amnesic, but his memory was partially blocked. Besides that, the hypnotist

used hypnosis to downplay Jonathan’s feelings for Rosalie. In other words, he remembered the things

between them, but that won’t invoke any feelings in him at all. It was more like a bystander watching a

film.”

As he spoke, her heart suddenly contracted. An instinctive anxiety surged through her, as if she was

instinctively afraid of what he would say next.

She thought, “Could he mean…”

“Oh? You’ve guessed it, haven’t you?” He said faintly, “Yes. I also found the hypnotist and tried to make

him downplay my feelings for you. That’s

why I don’t have any love or hatred for you now. You are just a somewhat

familiar stranger to me.”

In an instant, pain shot through her heart like she had been stabbed.

“A somewhat familiar stranger…?” she murmured, her eyes wet.

“Yes. I remember all that happened between us, but it’s just like watching a movie.” Swiping a finger

across the corner of her damp eyes, he went on, “Amelia, you once said that the best outcome for us

would be if we don’t have anything to do with each other. Now, let me say the same to you. I will take

up the necessary responsibility for our children, but for anything else, you can forget about it.”

After saying that, he withdrew his hand and took a tissue from the coffee table. He wiped his fingers

that had just touched her cheek and said, “Now, I have told you everything that needs to be said. Back

then, you didn’t want me to be a bother to you, so now, you’d better not bother me.”

Seeing that he was about to leave, Amelia said abruptly, “Wait!”

“What? Is there anything else?” he asked.

“The past we used to have… Is it really just like watching a movie for you?” she murmured.

“Yes, and now that the movie is over, I naturally don’t feel much,” he said indifferently.

She looked at him before suddenly walking up to him. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she stood

on tiptoe and kissed his lips.

As if to verify his words, her kiss was forceful and dominating. Under normal circumstances, she likely

couldn’t do such a thing, but today…



She wondered, “Am I doing this because I’m unwilling to believe him? Because I can’t believe he’s

really buried his feelings for me in such a short time?”

But no matter how she kissed him, his lips remained cold, and he didn’t respond.

When the kiss finally ended, Amelia stared blankly at the face so close to hers.

His expression was indifferent and cold; there was no emotion in his dark eyes. Even though her figure

was reflected in his black pupils, it was as

though he was looking at a stranger.

This man no longer loved her anymore.

This realization flashed in her mind.
