Love You Enough to Leave You Chapter 187

James tumbled forward. Olivia helped him up and chided, “Oscar, what is that for?”

Oscar slapped himself on the forehead in exasperation and cried, “Mom! Why are you wasting time with this joker? He is a playboy with countless women around him. If you introduce Tiffany to him, Amelia will give you an earful.”

James was aggrieved. “Oz, that is not fair. I do sincerely want to settle down with a Chanaean wife. If you sully my name again, I will cut you off.”

Olivia was amused by the two. “Okay, okay. I was also joking,” she clarified.

“Mrs. Clinton, you can’t joke about such matters. I am serious. Tiffany is not bad. Although she cannot measure up to Amelia, she is also a beauty. She is my kind of girl. You have to introduce her to me.” James hopped over to Olivia and protested.

Olivia was shocked. “You are serious about this?”

James put on a solemn face to reassure her.

Olivia kept quiet instead as she actually made that suggestion just to tease him.

When Tiffany walked in, she immediately sensed awkwardness in the air. She got goosebumps when James kept stealing glances at her.

As the elders were present, she just gave him a dirty look, then ignored him. She went forward to greet the rest. “Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Clinton. How are you doing?”

Olivia pulled her close and quipped, “Stop calling us Mr. and Mrs. Clinton. We agreed you will be my goddaughter, won’t you? You should be calling me godma instead. You and Amelia are close friends, so we are family from now on.”

Tiffany felt a little uneasy. She was wondering why the huge change in atmosphere and attitudes overnight. She redirected the conversation by asking, “Mrs. Clinton, how is Amelia? Has she woken?”

Olivia beamed, “Don’t worry, my dear. Oscar said she briefly woke up once this morning. She fell asleep again, as she is still weak.”

Tiffany was comforted by that news. She went to Amelia’s bedside to check on her. She was still pale and had lost much weight.

“Amelia has lost weight,” she moaned.

“Unfortunately, yes. After she is discharged, we will prepare nutritious food for her to build up her health again. You have lost weight too. I will get Molly to prepare some chicken soup for you. You haven’t had any proper rest after the blood transfusion to Amelia. You don’t look too good yourself. Why don’t I get James to go with you to somewhere nice for a proper meal?” Olivia offered.

Tiffany felt weird. She could sense Olivia was trying to pair her up with James.

“It’s okay, Mrs. Clinton. I ate before I came over,” she excused herself.

James jumped at the opportunity and offered, “Let’s go, pretty lady. Give me a chance to be a gentleman and escort you.”

Just as Tiffany was contemplating an appropriate response to rebuke James, a weak voice murmured, “Mom, Tiff, you are all here.”

Tiffany immediately turned her attention back to Amelia and marveled, “Amelia, you are awake?”

She walked over and squatted down by her bed. It was only upon seeing a lively Amelia that her mind could finally settle.
