Chapter 668

“This is my business, Warren. As long as you agree to these two things, I’ll give you Aiden’s custody,” she said, stepping back, creating distance between them.

“Since you consider Aiden a burden, why do you need three months? I can take Aiden with me right now,” he said.

“No!” she screamed sharply, as if someone was demanding her life. “Warren, I just want three months. Can’t you give me that?”

“Three months?” he scoffed. “Since you no longer want your son, why insist on three months?”

She bit her lower lip. After a moment, she said, “If you won’t give me three months, then I won’t give up custody.”

He stared at her. “You suddenly come to me with all this. Have you found someone you want to marry and is eager to start a new life? Therefore, you changed your mind and want to give up on the custody?”

She remained silent, not uttering a word.

To him, her silence was acquiescence.

Suddenly, it felt like a thorn was growing longer and sharper inside his heart, continuously causing him pain.

“Warren, as long as you agree to my conditions, my personal matters are none of your concern,” Amelia said, taking a few more steps back.

Does he know how passionate you were in my bed, where are your sensitive spots, or where you have moles? Maybe I should enlighten him sometime.”

Is that why you’re doing this to me? I have no words. I was foolish enough to fall in love with you. I had no idea whether you were sincere or pretending. I don’t blame fate, the world, or anyone else. I blame myself for not seeing through people. But when I loved you, I loved you with all my heart. Why should this love be insulted by you? Warren, do you know? When you say these things, you’re not just insulting me, but also yourself. Back then, you clearly didn’t love me. You
