Chapter 122
Amelia thought, ‘I can’t get pregnant? I can never be a mother in this life?‘ Pale–faced and shocked, Amelia asked in a trembling voice, “Mr. Atkinson, you said that I can’t get pregnant?”
Klein sighed and looked at Amelia with sympathy. His meaning was obvious.
Landon held Amelia’s hand tightly, trying to comfort her, “Honey, it’s okay.”
Landon didn’t mind whether he could have children or not, but Amelia wanted to have her own children. After two lifetimes, she was afraid of loneliness.
She wanted to have her children, but suddenly, she lost the right to be a mother.
“I… I want to go home.” Amelia pulled her hand from Landon’s grip and turned to walk out in a daze. This fact was unacceptable, and she wanted to be
alone.
“Honey.” Landon hurriedly controlled his wheelchair to chase her.
Elaine pouted with disdain and muttered, “She can’t even get pregnant. Why did Landon still want her?”
“Watch your mouth,” Klein warned Elaine.
Elaine stuck out her tongue, feeling overjoyed. She thought, ‘Amelia can’t have children, and the Kingsley family won’t accept her. That’s great. She will be kicked out in a few days. My chance is coming!’
“Dad, don’t let Patrick go,” Elaine took Klein’s hand and said sweetly.
“Absolutely not.” Klein patted Elaine gently on her cheek.
Klein had decided to wed Elaine to Landon, so he would definitely help Landon. The first and foremost task was to defeat Patrick. Klein said, “Elaine, the opportunity has been created for you. The rest is up to you.”
“I won’t let you down, Dad.” Elaine was confident and determined to win Landon over.
Landon followed Amelia out and stopped her by the car. “Honey, I don’t mind.”
“But I do mind.” Tears welled up in Amelia’s eyes, and she was trembling slightly. “You don’t know how much I want to be a mother.”
Landon said, “We can adopt-”
“That’s different,” Amelia said in a sobbing voice and tried her best to hold back her tears. “I want to give birth to our own child.”
“There is another way.” Landon took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears. At worst, they could go abroad and pay a surrogate mother to give birth to a baby for Amelia. As long as she wanted, he could do anything for her.
“Landon, I’m heartbroken.” Amelia covered her chest. In her previous life, she had been trapped in a sexless marriage for three years. Zachary’s parents had disdained her, and many people had scolded her for not being barren.
Amelia was very envious when she saw Sandra and Zachary playing with their son. After the rebirth, having children and revenge became Amelia’s obsessions. Amelia had even consulted about which sperm bank to choose before Landon liked her. But everything was ruined.
“Honey, we are still young, and Lindsey said it can be cured,” Landon said.
“Lindsey? She actually concealed my condition.” Amelia felt even more concealed. “It seems to be really severe.” Tears streamed down her face. She covered her face with the handkerchief, her/shoulders trembling.
Landon wanted to stand up and hug her, but he couldn’t, Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.

Chapter 122
“Mr. Kingsley, Mr. Atkinson, we’ve caught Patrick.” Raman brought Patrick, who was tied up..
Landon got angry when he saw Patrick and ordered, “Beat him.”
“Yes.” Four bodyguards came forward, threw Patrick to the ground, and started beating him.
Patrick was tied up and couldn’t fight back, so he could only curl up to protect his vital parts.
When Klein heard the noise and came out, Patrick was already covered with injuries and was groaning in pain on the ground.
“Landon, just let it to me. There’s no need for you to do such a rude thing.” Klein picked up Patrick with one hand easily.
Patrick’s eyes were swollen, and he could only open a little of them. Seeing Klein’s malicious face, he was scared and begged for mercy in a weak voice, “Mr. Atkinson, it’s none of my business. It’s all Landon’s tricks.”
“At this point, you are still lying.” Klein threw Patrick into the car and prepared to take him away.
“Wait,” Landon frowned. “Mr. Atkinson, please give Patrick to me.”
“He dared to harm my daughter. I must teach him a lesson,” Klein said.
“Before that, I have something to ask him,” Landon said.
Klein picked up Patrick and threw him in front of Landon’s wheelchair.
“Honey, go inside and wait for me,” Landon said to Amelia.
Amelia’s mind was in a mess. She didn’t even have the mood to seek revenge on Patrick. She went back to the apartment sadly.
After Amelia went in, Landon said coldly, “Give me the antidote.”
Patrick lay on the ground weakly, but he still laughed, “It can’t be cured. Landon, Amelia lost her fertility forever because of you. Why did you marry her? Even if you kill me today, there is no antidote.
“Someone like you should live alone for a whole life. You don’t deserve to have a wife. Amelia is supposed to have a good life, but you ruined it.”
The last hope was shattered. Landon glared at Patrick and raised his hand. There was a pistol in his hand.
Klein, a person who owned underworld power, was shocked when he saw this and hurried to persuade. “Calm down, Landon. Don’t be impulsive.” “You want to kill me, huh? Then you have to accompany Kenneth in the prison,” Patrick smiled confidently. He was sure that Landon would not shoot.
Patrick thought, ‘Landon is Gloria’s only son. If he were sent to prison, he would lose his current position and have no chance to find Kayla.
