Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 580

Seeing the wide range of scrumptious delicacies on the table, Dominic and Melanie were unsure of how they should have the food.

With a kind smile, Oscar uttered, “Dad, Mom, eat as you please. Just make yourselves at home.”

Both of them picked up their cutlery and started to dig in. Despite the food being delicious, the duo didn't have much of an appetite to enjoy the meal as Oscar had his eyes on them the entire time.

Dominic put down his cutlery and wiped his mouth with a napkin. He said, “Oscar, please tell Amelia that our words just now might be hurtful to hear, but we said that out of concern for her. We hope her life would be much better in the future.”

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Oscar's mouth.

“Is that so? Dad, I think she'll be very happy to hear that if you talk to her personally,” replied Oscar.

A hint of awkwardness flitted across Dominic's face when he heard the younger man's response.

“Dad, back then, when Amelia and I got married, you and Mom didn't attend, so I thought her parents had passed away a long time ago. Ultimately, I figured out that I had misunderstood. Dad, Mom, I just wanted to ask. Where did you go over the years?”

Letting out a dry laugh, Dominic responded, “We know that Amelia married well, but the Winters family is only an ordinary family. Our presence will be an embarrassment to her. Therefore, for the past few

years, we've instructed our family members to avoid showing up in front of Amelia.”

Oscar could not help but laugh at that.

“Dad, I never thought that you're such a funny man. You even know how to make a joke like this.” His voice sounded emotionless; hence it was not obvious that he was taunting the couple.

Dominic remained silent.

Oscar crossed his arms and faintly asked, “Dad, can you tell me how did you get involved with the Hutton family?”

“Mr. Hutton... h-he's the Winters family's life savior.”

“Does that mean you guys knew that Amelia is the daughter of the Hutton family since the very beginning?”

Dominic nodded in response.

“Could it be the so-called Mr. Hutton personally gave Amelia to you guys to raise her?” Oscar asked mischievously.

Dominic pondered for a moment before responding hesitantly, “A young man gave Amelia to us back then. He told us that her family name was Hutton, and Amelia was her given name. We were asked to change her family name, but not her given name. As for Mr. Hutton, we only met him at Amelia's wedding. He said there was no need for us to appear in front of Amelia if she didn't come back for us. Therefore, we never showed up all these years. Until yesterday, Mr. Hutton gave us a call, telling us to

stop Amelia from ruining their lives. Hence, we took a flight to come here. Mr. Hutton has provided us with a lot of help, so we could never be ungrateful.”

“You can't be ungrateful, yet you're repeatedly hurting Amelia. Don't you think it's too selfish of you to do so?” Oscar questioned.

Dominic opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out. His expression was stiff and awkward.

“Dad, if you're short of money, you can ask me. What's the point of begging the Hutton family instead? On the way here, I've asked someone to investigate how the Winters family has been doing and found out that your eldest son has cirrhosis. Thus, you'll probably need a large sum of money to pay for his surgery. Since you're my in-laws, isn't it natural for me to help you all out financially? Why would you rather be in alliance with an outsider against your daughter?” Oscar pretended to be confused.

When Dominic rose from his seat in a flash, the chair behind him rattled for a while before falling to the ground.

Enraged, Dominic huffed and said, “Oscar! Y-You investigated me?”

Oscar cupped his hands together, placed them on the table, and replied nonchalantly, “Dad, don't be mad. I'm a businessman and an overly suspicious person. Thus, I can't believe that someone who hasn't seen Amelia for many years would suddenly pay a visit and say that they miss her. I don't even care whether they're family or friends. It's still suspicious in my eyes, so I had someone do some investigation on you for that very reason.”

“W-What exactly do you want?” In an instant, Dominic's face turned as red as a tomato.

“I don't want anything, Dad. If you're encountering any difficulties in life, I can help you. However, if you're siding with an outsider to go against Amelia, I'll not forgive you. Amelia is my wife. She means more to me than my own life.”

Dominic's chest heaved up and down as he panted.

“Dear, let's go!” he fumed.

The couple left the place in haste.

Meanwhile, Oscar twitched his lips into a mocking smile as he watched their retreating figures.

After leaving the restaurant, he headed to his workplace in his car and also made a call to Molly.

“Molly, from now on, no matter who comes to find Amelia, don't allow them to enter the residence unless I agree to it,” Oscar reminded.

Molly hesitantly asked, “What if Mrs. Clinton's parents are here?”

“Likewise, don't allow them to enter the house without my permission. They have been missing for seven years, and now they're visiting Amelia all of a sudden. Do you think they're harboring good intentions?”

“Okay, I got it, Mr. Clinton.”

After ending the call, Oscar was sweating over at work.

He busied himself until ten at night, and he finally solved the problems in the project.

When he raised his hand to rub his throbbing head, he could feel someone's hands reach his forehead and help him to massage it. As he whipped around, he saw Isabella standing there.

He rose from his seat abruptly, displaying an unapproachable demeanor as he said, “It's time to get off work. You may leave now.”

Isabella stared at him with puppy eyes. “Oscar, it's just the two of us here. Can't you be gentle with me? Since you and Amelia haven't remarried yet, I still have a chance. I just want to stay by your side quietly and give you a hand whenever needed. Can't I?”

Oscar impatiently cast a glance at her and then left.

However, the woman shamelessly scurried toward Oscar and tried to hug him from behind. Unexpectedly, Oscar turned around as if he could see behind him. “Isabella, don't simply give me a hug from behind if you don't want to die!”

Isabella was dumbstruck and stopped in her tracks. When the embarrassing scene flooded her mind, she could not help but shiver at that. Thus, she could only watch Oscar walk away.

“Oscar, you'll belong to me alone eventually,” Isabella uttered, feeling dissatisfied as she watched the door close. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

I've spent two years on Oscar. How can Amelia snatch away Oscar just like that? For the sake of the Walker family, as much as for myself, I must get Oscar back no matter what.

By the time Oscar returned home, Amelia had already fallen asleep while hugging Tony in her arms. Oscar carefully took his pajamas to the bathroom and took a hot bath.

Then, he went to bed and carefully embraced Amelia, as well as Tony, in his arms. Amelia did not wake up even when he cuddled her. She must be exhausted because of the trouble these days.

The family of three had a good night's sleep that night. When Oscar woke up the next day, he checked his phone and noticed that it was only seven in the morning.

He fondly kissed Amelia, who was still sound asleep, as if he was waking up the sleeping beauty with his kiss.

Indeed, Amelia was awoken by his kiss.

While Amelia was in her daze, she licked his lips and whispered, “What's the time now?”

“It's just seven o'clock. You can still sleep for half an hour. I'll go downstairs to prepare your favorite breakfast.”

Amelia hugged him from behind as she whined, “Stay here with me. Let's sleep a little more.”

The corners of Oscar's lips curved upward, and his mood lightened up immediately.

In a doting tone, Oscar replied, “Be good. I'll go prepare your favorite food.”

“Okay,” Amelia responded.

Oscar went downstairs after washing up. When Molly saw Oscar awake at this hour, she revealed a smile. “Mr. Clinton, why are you up so early?”

“I went to bed early last night, so I woke up earlier. I want to prepare some food for Amelia and Tony by myself.”

“Mr. Clinton, you're getting more and more thoughtful. I believe that Mrs. Clinton must be very happy to have such a good husband like you.”

Oscar smiled upon hearing that.

As Molly helped Oscar out in the kitchen, she hesitated for a short second and muttered, “Mr. Clinton, there's something I'm not sure if I should tell you.”

“Tell me about it, Molly.”

After pondering for a while, Molly asserted, “Mr. Clinton, you should still be cautious of Mrs. Clinton's parents. I'm afraid that Mrs. Clinton will easily give in. After all, they're the ones who raised her into adulthood. Even though they have many faults, Mrs. Clinton, being the daughter, can't be too harsh to them. Hence, I guess you'll have to be the bad guy in this situation.”

“I know, Molly. I've already met with them yesterday and given them some warning. If they still have their dignity, I'll regard them as my parents-in-law. However, if they take my mercy for granted, don't blame me for being unreasonable then.”

Molly breathed a sigh of relief.

“Mr. Clinton, since you've already prepared for it, I shall stop giving any comment. Nevertheless, you'd best not go overboard. Otherwise, Mrs. Clinton will surely feel upset when she finds out.”

“Don't worry, Molly. I know what to do.”

Molly nodded and said nothing more.

After Amelia had the breakfast prepared by Oscar, Oscar drove her to work. As for Tony, Olivia sent someone to pick him up.

As soon as the duo arrived at Amelia's company, Oscar unbuckled his seatbelt, leaned over to hold Amelia by the back of her head, and gave her a passionate, deep kiss.

With that, Oscar whispered into her ears, “Call me if you need me.”

Amelia was caught between laughter and tears. “I shall go now. Drive safe.”

After watching Amelia enter the building, Oscar drove back without noticing Rory on the side. When his car passed by Rory, she had her hand awkwardly raised in the air.

Confusion was evident on Rory's face as she looked at Oscar's car which was speeding off into the distance. She then bit her lips and put down her hand, feeling dissatisfied.

In the meantime, Lydia slung her purse over a shoulder before coming closer from afar in her high heels. She glanced at Rory disdainfully as she snorted, “Stop looking already. His car is nowhere to be

found now. You should keep both feet on the ground and stop having unrealistic dreams. Don't expect to have something that doesn't belong to you. In fact, you can think about that only when you're as powerful as Amelia. Otherwise, don't get lost in your daydream of turning into a wealthy woman like Cinderella. That's just unreal.”

With that said, Lydia turned around. Her high heels clicked and clacked across the ground as she strode into the building with her head held high.

Rory glowered at Lydia with resentment. Emotions were crashing against her heart in violent waves. She even felt a fire burning inside her. Yet, she did not vent her anger because Lydia was her superior. If Rory dared to fight back, she would probably get an earful more frequently.

Just thinking about how she had to devote her body to serve Eduardo disgusted her. If they hadn't discreetly belittled me, I wouldn't have worked so hard. I've even lost my virginity, but I ended up with nothing.

Rory lifted her head to stare at the sky and took a deep breath to calm herself down. She then headed into the company as if nothing had happened. Meanwhile, Jolin, who was behind Rory, had taken notice of Rory's every single action. Jolin furrowed her eyebrows at that sight, but she did not utter a word and entered the company.
