Chapter 1177

“If there was anything fishy, Lucas would be dead.” Warren sounded casual when he uttered those words. In fact, when he said those words, his expression was not as fierce as before.

However, she felt a chill running down her spine. “He isn’t joking! He’s being serious! If I were to have an affair with Lucas, Warren would kill him!” she thought.

“I… I won’t have that kind of relationship with him,” she murmured after keeping silent for a while. With that, she moved slightly and asked, “Can you let me go now? It’s rather uncomfortable.”

He stared at her, and after a moment, he released his hand.

She adjusted her sitting posture and said, “I want to go back to the hotel to rest.”

Warren ordered the driver in the front row, “Go to the hotel.”

The car drove toward the hotel.

During the journey, Amelia felt helpless. Warren was staring at her, and it was as though he was trying to see through her.

Back then, she had tried so hard to meet him. Yet, when he was sitting beside her, she didn’t know what to say.

Or, in fact, she already understood that no matter how hard she pleaded, he would not change his mind.

Maybe she was just unwilling to leave the city. It was also possible she just wanted to see him a few more times.

If she returned to Strico, it was unknown when he could be seen aga She might not see him again all her life.

When the car stopped at the entrance of the hotel, Amelia was about to open the door and get out.

Warren suddenly grabbed her hand and asked, “What? Are you going to get off just like this?”

Amelia glanced at Warren in confusion.

“Amelia, I thought you came to Lofbury to beg me. Well? I’m in front of you now. Aren’t you going to do that?” he asked.

She looked straight at him with her lips trembling slightly. “Would you agree if I begged?”

“That depends on how you beg,” he said nonchalantly. “Maybe if you could satisfy me with your begging, I would agree to your request and let Alicia go. That way, you can know the whereabouts of the person you are looking for.”

Amelia pursed her lips. “Then can you tell me how to make you happy? Do you want me to kneel before you? Tell me what you want me to do! I’ll do it!”

He frowned and thought of the scene that he had rushed to press her head, forcing her to kneel before Irene.

Although his feelings for her had faded, he still felt uncomfortable.

“Then let’s go to your room and talk,” Warren said.

They got out of the car and went to Amelia’s hotel room. Warren casually took off his coat, put it on the sofa beside him, and sat down.

Although he just sat casually, it still gave her a sense of oppression and made her overwhelmed.

Taking a deep breath, Amelia asked, “How do you want me to beg you?”

“Back then, I asked you to give me a chance to stay with me. I will make you fall in love with me again, but you refused,” he said.

Her face turned a little pale, but she was still waiting quietly for his words.

“And today, I’ll give you a chance. If you can convince me to be nice to you willingly, I will spare Alicia,”

he said.

When Amelia heard that, her expression suddenly changed, and she looked at him in shock because he couldn’t believe what she had heard.

“I’m pregnant now,” said she.

“That’s not impossible, is it? You’re past the first trimester now. Even if you ask the doctor whether it is okay, the doctor will say yes,” he said indifferently. “Amelia, aren’t you willing to do anything for your friend? What’s the matter? I gave you a chance. Don’t you want it? Besides, I’m asking you to convince me. Do you think a man who doesn’t love you will be willing to do such things with you?”

Amelia’s face turned red.

She knew that he was humiliating her.

The man in front of her no longer had the same feelings for her. Back then, he would risk his life for her.

At that moment, however, he no longer loved her.

“What about you? Would you like to try it and see if I would be willing to do so? If you really have that ability, everything will go your way.”

His voice continued to ring out.

Amelia’s hands hanging on both sides of her body tightened slightly. She thought maybe he just wanted to watch her put on a teasing act. “Maybe all that I’ll get is some humiliation,” she thought.

For the sake of Riley, she had to try. “I have to do whatever it takes, don’t I? Besides, I hurt him before.

I guess it’s only fair for him to do the same to me,” she thought.

Amelia slowly stepped forward and leaned down slightly, with her hands gently pressing on Warren’s shoulder.

He stayed still and looked at her calmly.

She felt her palms sweating slightly, and a nervous feeling spread all over her body. Then she gently lifted his collar with her fingertips and touched the skin of his neck while her face was getting closer to his face.

She was getting so close to him that she could count his eyelashes, see her face in his pupils, and feel his breath.

His expression was still as cold as ever.

When she was in the hospital back then, he had smiled at her so gently. At that time, his dark eyes were filled with tenderness. He held her hand and said to her gently, “Amelia, I will be very nice to you in the future…”

However, at that moment, all she could see in his eyes was coldness.

Amelia went on to put her lips on his thin lips. His cold lips made her even more terrified.

She tried to kiss him, but he never kissed her back.

Amelia’s gaze turned gloomy. When she was about to step back, his big hand suddenly grabbed the back of her head. “Is that all? I didn’t feel seduced. How could a kiss like that make me fall in love with someone? How could that make me change my mind? At least it should be like this…”

With that, he kissed her passionately.

Amelia was almost out of breath because of the kiss, and the passionate kiss almost made her lose her mind. In an instant, she kept thinking about the time they spent in the hospital back then.
