“I will apply the ointment to the wounds on my body myself,” Warren said.
“But if you have injuries on your back, you can’t reach them, can you?” Amelia remarked.
Then, as if she suddenly realized something, she hurriedly added, “Actually, when Aiden
gets injured, I always have him take off his shirt so that I can apply ointment to his
wounds. For me, you and Aiden are the same.”
Her intention was to avoid any awkwardness, but once she said it, the atmosphere around
them turned weird.
He looked at her and asked, “Do you really think I’m the same as
After hesitating for a moment, she replied, “Well, more or less.” Sh thought, “At the very
least, you are both male.”
Warren then stripped off his bathrobe, revealing his upper body. so? Are we really that
alike?” He couldn’t quite articulate why he car much about her words.
It was as if he did not want her to see him the same way she treated her
son.
“It seems like she didn’t treat me as her husband at all. Could it be that
even if she saw my naked body, she wouldn’t feel anything?” he pondered.
At that moment, all of Amelia’s attention was focused on the bruises and injuries on
Warren’s body. They were mostly bruises from being hit, so they were not too severe, but
there were a lot of them, indicating that he had been involved in some intense fights that
day.
She quickly began applying the ointment, and after she finished with his back, she
proceeded to apply the ointment to the bruises on his chest.
Her head subconsciously approached his chest as she carefully applied
the ointment.
Suddenly Warren’s body tensed up. He felt her breath on his nose, which
gave him a somewhat uneasy feeling.
Hele was concerned that letting her continue in that manner would lead to

Chapter 1223
“All done! You need to apply this ointment twice a day. Tomorrow morning, I’ll—” While
Amelia was speaking, she looked up and saw Warren’s troubled expression. She was taken
aback and quickly inquired, “What is the matter? Did I hurt you while I was applying the
ointment earlier?”
However, Warren just looked at Amelia silently.
Seeing his lack of response, she became even more concerned. She reached out to touch
his face, but he grabbed her wrist firmly and asked, “What are you doing? Are you
genuinely concerned about me?”
“I am concerned about you. What is wrong with that? You were the one who suggested we
act like a normal married couple for a year or so,” Amelia replied.
“I did say that, but your concern right now, and the way you are expressing it, makes me
think you have fallen in love with me. Do you really need to put on such a show, Amelia?”
His voice had a cold tone t it.
Hearing that, she was dumbstruck. “Do you think that I’m acting?”
“Aren’t you? Or you are telling me you have genuinely fallen in love with me?” he asked,
slightly mockingly.
A feeling of bitterness crept into her heart. She had never put on a show in front of him.
However, there was no way she could tell him that she had truly fallen in love with him.
Even if she told him right then and there, it would be pointless.
Furthermore, when she had previously decided to end her relationship with him, she had
already resolved to bury those feelings deep within her heart forever and never tell him.
“You’re right. I am not in love with you. I will be more careful in the future,” she
murmured, lowering her gaze.
The next second, he immediately released her hand. “Then do not give off any misleading
impressions in the future,” he said, putting his bathrobe back on before standing up.
The moment he stood up, he felt a familiar pain in his heart.
It was as if he had gone through that agony countless times. It was the heartbreak he felt
every time she told him she did not love him.

He had thought he had long forgotten his feelings for her, but now he was feeling the
agony again.
“Why is this happening again?” he thought.
Subconsciously, Warren clenched both of his fists. Although he kept asking himself in his
heart, he couldn’t find the answers.
Meanwhile, Jennifer had heard Felix talk enthusiastically about a lot of fun places in
Lommore, and she insisted on visiting them. Because of that, Rosalie and Jonathan
decided to take their three children to Lommore’s scenic spots and attractions.
However, as Rosalie observed the three children, she couldn’t help but feel that Guillermo
seemed like a third wheel.
Thinking about it, she realized that Felix could be considered Jennifer’s childhood friend,
and Karina could also be considered Zaid’s childhood friend. Guillermo was the only one
who had never had a childhood friend.
“What are you thinking about?” Jonathan asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe three children on the cruise ship curiously looked around at the scenery on the lake.
Felix then proceeded to describe all of the breathtaking scenery to them, almost as if
reciting a textbook.
He was so good at it that one had to wonder if he had memorized the tour’s guidebook.
“I was thinking that Jen is very fortunate to have a childhood friend like Felix. After all,
children’s feelings are the purest. I wonder when Guille will find his,” Rosalie responded.
“Why? Do you really want Guille to have a childhood friend as well?” Jonathan asked.
“Of course! Don’t you think having a childhood friend is sweet and something to be
yearned for?” Rosalie replied.
“Sweet and something to be yearned for?” He raised an eyebrow. “So, you also want a
childhood friend?”
“Yes, when I was a child… Her voice abruptly came to a halt as she felt the atmosphere
around her becoming tense. Jonathan’s body was getting closer, his hand wrapping
around her waist, nearly imprisoning her in his embrace.

Even though they had rented the cruise ship for themselves, the situation felt somewhat
embarrassing. Aside from the three children, there were also bodyguards and boatmen
accompanying them. There were quite a few people present.
“Are you jealous? It’s natural for a girl to want to be protected by a childhood friend. It’s
just a random thought. Besides, I do not have one,” she mumbled.
“Doesn’t Calvin count?” Jonathan asked, his beautiful eyes fixed on her.
Rosalie was taken aback when she heard Calvin’s name mentioned. Indeed, they had met
when they were kids. However… “Meeting someone as a child does not necessarily make
them your childhood friend. Besides, the total amount of time I spent with him as a child
was less than 24 hours.”
Hearing that, Jonathan lowered his head and gently brushed Rosalie’s cheek. He piped up
in a cold voice, “Yes, you spent less than a day together back then. However, because of
that brief encounter, Calvin ha developed feelings for you and will remember you for the
rest of his life. Do you think you two would have become childhood friends if he had not
lost contact with you back then?”
