The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 1027
Amelia pursed her lips. She was aware of her mother’s concern, but she couldn’t do anything about it. “Mom, I will save money
for when I’m old. Besides, Aiden is a filial child and will naturally take care of me when I’m in my dotage in the future. You don’t
have to worry.”
“Amelia, tell me the truth. Are you still... pining over Warren? Because of him, you can’t let go of the past, right?” Matilda asked.
Amelia went silent. Warren seemed to be an indelible mark for her. Even though she no longer loved him, she still couldn’t forget
him.
After all, he occupied too much space in her life. It was even he who destroyed her ability to love someone completely.
Right then, she couldn’t bring herself to start a new relationship, for once bitten, twice shy.
“Mom, some things in the past can’t be forgotten. But I don’t love Warren anymore. I know this better than anyone else. Getting
to operate a small business and being by you and Aiden’s side is exactly the life
I want!”
Matilda sighed, but she ultimately stopped pursuing that matter.
Meanwhile, Lillian and Callum had filled out the registration form and had their photos taken at City Hall. At that moment, they
were waiting to recite their marriage vows. Only after that would they be able to obtain the marriage certificates.
But while waiting, Lillian could sense many gazes on them.
After all, not only did she have a bulging belly, but Callum’s countenance was also very much attractive.
Many couples waiting to recite their marriage vows glanced at them and whispered among themselves every so often.
Seeing that, Lillian whispered to Callum, “Say, if the news of our marriage got leaked by the paparazzi in the future, would
everyone think you were forced to marry me because I was pregnant?”
When Lillian said that, she was merely joking without thinking much of it.

Callum threw her a sidelong glance. “If so, they truly don’t know me. I’m not a person who’d ever marry a woman because she’s
pregnant. And unless I’m willing, no one can have my baby.”
Lillian was stunned. “But I’m pregnant. Don’t tell me you were serious about me at that time?”
Callum’s gaze gradually darkened. “Since I allowed you to do so at that time, I was ready to have a child with you. In this world, I
only want a combination of my bloodline and yours. No one else will do!”
He never thought of allowing another woman to give birth to his child. Nor could any woman force him into marriage with a child.
He only wanted to get married because he wished to spend the rest of his life with her.
Lillian’s nose suddenly stung.
When it was their turn to recite their vows on stage, Lillian recited her marriage vows word by word. At the same time, she could
hear Callum’s crisp and elegant voice doing the same.
“To have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to
cherish till death do us part.”
From then on, she was his wife, and he was her husband.
“I love you, Callum!” Lillian confessed, staring at the marriage certificate in her hand when they had returned to the car.
“What should you be calling me now?” Callum smiled,
Lillian was stunned for a moment. Then, she belatedly murmured in realization, “Hubby,” Although she had long since had her
sights set on him as her husband, she still blushed when she uttered that endearment.
“Good girl, Darling.” Callum leaned over and gently tilted Lillian’s chin up with a hand. He sealed his lips over hers.

Subsequently, as though he couldn’t kiss her enough, he promised hoarsely, “No matter what happens in the future, I will give up
everything for you as long as you call me Hubby.”

“I will also do the same for you. No matter what happens in the future, we must be frank with each other and not have any
misunderstandings, okay?” Lillian murmured.
“Okay,” Callum agreed readily.
In the living room of the Quinn residence right then, Stephen and Abigail looked at the bundle of exquisite notebooks brought by
Callum’s subordinate. After opening it, they were greeted by a list inside.
The contents on the list stunned Stephen and Abigail, who had been honest citizens in their lifetime.
The monetary gift was more than tens of millions of dollars. On top of that, there were various gold items, mansions, and more.
“What are these?”
“They’re betrothal gifts prepared by Mr. White. If you have anything else to add, just say the word,” Callum’s subordinate said
respectfully.
“Add?” Stephen and Abigail looked at each other and thought, “There are already so many things. What else would we have to
add?”
There were already so many things on the list that they were at a loss.
The next day, Rosalie accompanied Amelia and Aiden to the hospital to get cochlear implants.
When Aiden was trying on cochlear implants in the consulting room, Rosalie looked at Amelia, who appeared distracted.
“What’s wrong, Amelia? Are you worried about Aiden’s cochlear implants?” Rosalie asked.
“Huh?” Jolted out of her thoughts, Amelia shook her head. “No.”
“Then, what are you worried about? You look preoccupied,” Rosalie pressed.
Amelia touched her cheek and smiled bitterly. “It’s nothing. It’s just that Irene is out of prison.”
“She’s out of prison?” Rosalie was stunned before remembering that yesterday was the day Irene got out of prison.
With the York family applying pressure, Irene’s sentence was not commuted.

Therefore, she was likely released from prison on the day specified in the verdict.
“How about I send someone to protect you and Aiden?” Rosalie suggested.
“No, it’s okay.” Amelia chuckled before continuing, “It’s been so many years. Besides, the Fletcher family is no longer powerful.
Even if Irene truly resents me, she doesn’t have the ability to do anything.”
At that precise moment, a voice suddenly rang out at the side. “Rosalie, Amelia... I didn’t mistake you two, right?”
They looked up in the direction of the voice, only to see a familiar figure.
It was Lucas.
Rosalie was stunned, for she had never expected to meet Lucas again there.
The once shy and honest man looked older than his actual age then. Wearing ordinary casual clothes, he had faint gray hairs on
his temples. Beside him, he was holding the hand of a cute little girl.
“It’s been a long time, Lucas,” Amelia greeted.
Rosalie, on the other hand, said, “What a coincidence, Lucas. Who’s this little girl?”
“Oh, this is my daughter. She’s three years old,” Lucas replied. Then, he said to the little girl beside him, “Nadine, this is Ms.
Leighton and Ms. Haab. Be good and greet them!”
