Chapter 411
In fact, it was as if he had discovered, for the first time, that she could be even more determined than he had
thought.
She could harm her own body so casually, but when he saw the blood oozing from her, he felt a piercing chill. Every
nerve in his body felt like it was stabbing with pain.
It was as if she had embedded those shards of glass into him.
It was so painful for him.
But at that moment, his pain and anger made Amelia laugh. With a single laugh, the blood from her abdomen
seemed to seep even faster.
“Don’t laugh!” He was in a panic, afraid that her blood would flow too fast, too much.
She laughed and seemed to mock him for panicking.
“Does this count as repaying a life?” Amelia struggled, feeling the blood flowing. Yet, she knew she wouldn’t die.
Back in prison, she had endured too many injuries. Sometimes, with enough wounds, healing became a habit. So,
she knew she wasn’t going to die from those injuries.
She did that to make Warren understand her determination.
“I can live the rest of my life without bearing a child. You can also have a doctor remove my uterus. Of course, it’s
possible that my uterus is already damaged, and I may not be able to conceive a child anymore.” Amelia struggled
as she looked at the pale man in front of her with mocking eyes.
Warren was very pale at that moment. His black eyes were filled with tension, pain, and panic, as if… he cared
deeply for Amelia. If she hadn’t witnessed his heartlessness, she might have believed it.
He was acting that way now probably because he was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to give birth to a child for

Irene.
“Warren, I’m repaying with this… Is it enough?” Her blood dripped onto the luxurious carpet along the glass and her
fingers.
His eyes were fixed on her, but he couldn’t say a word. Warren had never imagined Amelia could be so determined.
Her determination terrified him.
It was as if, by pushing her any further, she would be crushed and completely disappear in front of him.
Amelia was taken to the hospital by an ambulance, and Warren followed her.
Warren sat on a bench in the corridor and stared at his bloodied hands as Amelia was pushed into the operating
room.
That was… her blood.
She was willing to hurt herself to reject him.
His hands… even now, they were still trembling slightly.
“Stop shaking!” he kept shouting to himself inwardly.
‘She brought it upon herself. She owed me and Irene a child because she made herself unable to conceive, and
even… carrying the family name “Haab” was her original sin!
I will not feel guilty for a woman like her, even if she dies on the operating table today!’ Warren kept pondering.
But somehow, images from years ago flashed through his mind. She had once hugged him with a bright smile and
said, “Warren, I want to give you a child, um, not just one, but many, many more. What do you think? Do you like
boys or girls? In the future, I’ll just be a full-time wife. Anyway, I don’t have any big career ambitions. I prefer to
spend more time with you and the kids…”
There was another sudden pain in his chest.
Warren pounded his chest as if to stop the pain.
He didn’t know why he was thinking about those things again. After her release from prison, he had gone to such
lengths to find her, all for revenge.
He felt that her mere three and a half years in prison had been too lenient, far too lenient.
But when he saw her hurting herself, he didn’t know why he wanted to stop her and even called an ambulance.
He was supposed to take revenge on her but ended up feeling like he was the one who was getting retaliated
against.
Suddenly, his phone started ringing, which was especially clear in that quiet place.
Warren looked at the caller ID. It was Irene.
When he answered the call, Irene’s soft voice came through the phone, “Warren.”
“What’s the matter?” Warren asked, his voice tinged with fatigue.
Irene sensed the strangeness in his voice and asked hurriedly, “What’s wrong with you? Are you tired?”
“I’m fine. Just dealing with some small matters,” he answered. Indeed, dealing with Amelia was just a trivial matter
for him.
“Well… I won’t disturb you anymore. I just wanted to ask when you’ll be back. If you have to stay in Strico for a
while, I’ll come and keep you company,” Irene said.
For some reason, the thought of him staying in Strico during that time and their brief phone conversations had
made Irene
more uneasy.
She was afraid that something unexpected might happen.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven though he had been good to her over the years, and they had planned to marry, the inability to conceive and
bear children remained like a thorn in her heart.
More importantly, she knew he had been looking for Amelia throughout the year.
What exactly Amelia meant to him was something Irene was afraid to delve into.
She knew that what she had to do now was to firmly hold on to Warren and marry smoothly into the York family.
“No, you don’t have to come over. I’ll be back in two days,” Warren said.
Irene was relieved to hear that.
When Warren finished the call, his gaze fell back on the tightly closed door of the operating room, his face showing
a complicated expression.
He thought, ‘What am I going to do with Amelia?
Should I continue to seek my revenge?
Or…
He didn’t even know what the answer was supposed to be.
When Amelia awoke, she saw Matilda’s worried face.
Suddenly, she was startled. “Mom!” But when she opened her mouth, her throat felt terribly dry, and a sharp pain
came from her abdomen.
“Don’t move. Lie down properly,” Matilda quickly said, her eyes filled with deep sadness. “Why are you so harsh on
yourself? Using shattered glass to hurt yourself! Have you ever thought about how Aiden and I would go on living if
something happened to you?”
When Amelia heard Aiden’s name, she suddenly became nervous. Her head turned anxiously as if she was afraid
that Warren would suddenly appear and hear those words.
Matilda gently patted her shoulder and said, “Don’t worry. Warren has left. He called me to come to the hospital.”
“He… left?” Amelia was stunned for a moment, and then the tension throughout her body seemed to relax all at
once. She sprawled on the hospital bed like soft mud.
