Chapter 1058
The Ceo’s Convict Wife
A moment later, she asked again, âHas Mr. Gibson found out where Warren took Amelia?â Her anxious tone and expression made it seem like her mind and heart were completely occupied by Amelia.
Jonathan could only helplessly respond, âIt should be soon.â
As expected, Carlos finally entered the office after a while to report. Ameliaâs whereabouts.
Only then did Rosalie know that Warren had taken Amelia from the hospital, where Amelia had gone to undergo a medical abortion. procedure.
âAmelia wants to terminate the pregnancy?â Rosalie was utterly shocked.
âIt seems so,â Carlos said.
âWhere is Amelia now?â Rosalie asked hurriedly.
âWarren took Amelia to his mansion in Strico,â Carlos said.
Rosalie then looked at Jonathan, who naturally understood his wifeâs thoughts.
âThen, letâs go and pick up Amelia. This way, you can be at ease, right?â Jonathan suggested.
âI knew you were the best, Jon,â Rosalie said.
Such a simple sentence filled Jonathanâs eyes with a smile. Clearly, he cherished her flattery.
Carlos was now numb. He had long known that no oneâs flattery could be compared with Rosalieâs casual words.
Rosalie was the only one who could effortlessly make Jonathan do everything for her.
Jonathan seemed destined to fall into this womanâs hands for the rest of his life.
Carlos quickly arranged for a car and provided the driver with detailed directions to Warrenâs mansion.
As the car headed toward Warrenâs mansion, Rosalie still wore a worried expression. Rosalie asked.
âIf they donât let us in, weâll just force our way in,â Jonathan said casually.
âForce our way in?â She blinked, glancing at him and then at herself. âUh⦠Just the two of us?â Strictly speaking, it was just Jonathan alone, as she only knew a few self-defense moves. If a fight broke out, sheâd probably end up getting beaten.
Nonetheless, Rosalie remembered that Jonathan was good at fighting. However, if there were many security guards on the Warrenâs side by then, he might not be able to defeat them singlehandedly.
âWhat are you thinking?â Jonathan reached out and lightly tapped Rosalieâs forehead. âWe have many bodyguards following us. If it comes down to a fight, we donât need to do it ourselves.â
âHuh?â Rosalie was stunned and turned to look behind the car. âDo we have many bodyguards?ââ
She was not sure which cars behind them belonged to the bodyguards.
Jonathan said calmly, âAnyway, since we are going there, I will definitely take you into Warrenâs mansion and bring Amelia out.â
Only then did Rosalie feel relieved.
At this moment, in the mansion, Amelia paced back and forth in a room. Warren had brought her here and locked her in this room.
She could not understand what he was planning, especially since he had not taken away her phone.
In other words, if she wanted to contact the outside world, she could do so anytime.
Watching the time pass, Amelia began to worry that Matilda would become suspicious if she did not return soon. Considering this, she hesitated about whether to call the latter first.
Just then, she accidentally bumped into the corner of a nearby table, causing a stack of documents to fall to the floor.
Amelia quickly bent down to pick them up. However, when she saw a few photos of Lucas, she froze.
âIs Warren investigating Lucas?â she thought, Hastily, Arnelia glanced through the scattered documents and realized they contained detailed information not only about Lucas but also about Lucasâ ex-wife, Xaviera, and even the man Xaviera was currently living with-the same man who used to be Lucasâ friend.
Amelia stared at the documents in shock, feeling a chill creeping through her body.
Just then, the door was opened, and Warren walked in.
When Warren saw the documents in Ameliaâs hand, he was taken aback. He had left these documents on the table without thinking she would see them.
Amelia looked at Warren and asked hesitantly, âIs Xaviera asking Lucas for money and causing trouble for him related to you?â
Warrenâs eyes dimmed, his tone tinged with self-deprecation. âIn your eyes, am I only capable of such things?â
âIf not, why do you have these documents?â she asked.
âBecause Iâm uneasy. Because Iâm afraid. Because once you said that Lucas is a good person.
Because in your and Aidenâs hearts, Lucas far surpasses me,â he said, gradually approaching her with each step he took.
âYouâ¦â
âSo, itâs only normal for me to investigate a man who might become my rival, isnât it? As for his ex-wife, I naturally have to investigate her, too,â Warren said, getting closer.
She subconsciously backed away until her back hit the edge of the table. There was no more room for retreat.
âBut I didnât know that Iâm actually such a villain in your eyes. You think I would harass him through his ex-wife, causing him trouble?â Warren snorted coldly. âIf I really want to deal with Lucas, why go through such a roundabout way? I could just confront him directly. I wouldnât resort to something as petty as sending his ex-wife to harass him.â
Amelia was shocked. Indeed, if Warren intervened, it would be challenging for them to stay in Strico.
âWarren, regardless of what has happened between us, donât touch Lucas. He has nothing to do with us.â
However, her words seemed to provoke him. His face twisted with a trace of anger. âAre you this concerned about him? Are you so afraid that I might harm him?â
âI just donât want to involve innocent people,â involve innocent people,â amelia said.
âInnocent?â He gave a bitter smile. âYou care about him so much, repeatedly asking me not to harm him! If he holds such a significant place in your heart, he is not innocent âWarren, what does it take for you not to touch Lucas? Will you leave him alone if I promise not to see him again and if I cut off all contact with him?â she asked, meeting his gaze directly.
A deeper sadness welled up in Warrenâs eyes.
âDoes she realize that the more she speaks like this, the more it indicates her determination to protect Lucas? Is that man truly worth her concern? I am the one she used to care about!â Warren thought.
Warren felt a sharp pain in his chest.
âWarren, can you accept that?â Amelia asked, seeming unyielding until she received an answer.
