Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 216

Chapter 216 Tell The Truth

As soon as the party ended, Oscar and Owen personally saw the guests out before returning to the house. “Oscar, where’s your sister?” Owen asked gravely.

Still reluctant to talk about Stephanie, Oscar tried to brush his father off. “She’s upstairs.”

“Oscar, seeing as how Amelia and Tony are safe and sound, can’t you forgive your sister? The two of you have always been close, and you’re usually very tolerant of her. Why can’t you give her another chance?” Owen asked with a sigh.

“Dad, would you forgive someone who wanted to kill your wife and child?”

At a loss for words, Owen looked away.

“Dad, I can dote on Stephanie and give in to her, provided that she doesn’t cross my bottom line. Now, not only has she crossed that line, but she has also violated the basic moral principles. It’s no longer a question of whether I can forgive her or not.”

Owen patted his shoulders and said with a touch of sorrow in his voice, “I know, but she’s still your sister.”

Oscar gazed at the brightly lit villa in the distance where his wife and son shared with his family. It wasn’t long ago when he had almost lost them, and he never wanted to experience that again. Knowing that Stephanie was the culprit made it even worse, and it was no longer a question of forgiveness.

“Dad, when she finally realizes that she was in the wrong, I might be able to forgive her.” Even though he was sure his sister would never realize her mistake, Oscar still made a compromise and gave a deadline.

With that, Owen grew even more silent.

Amelia was making her way down the stairs when Oscar and Owen stepped into the hall. The sight of them together made her laugh out loud.

“Dad, Oscar, have all the guests gone home?”

Ignoring his father’s presence, Oscar lovingly caressed Amelia’s cheek and asked, “Why aren’t you sleeping yet?”

“It’s still early.”

Just as the three of them settled into a comfortable conversation, Olivia and Stephanie came down the stairs. Seeing how happy Amelia was chatting with her family, Stephanie’s eyes flashed with resentment.

Even as Olivia tried to stop her, Stephanie broke away and confronted Amelia. “Are you happy now, Amelia Winters? Both my mother and brother are siding with you and chasing me out of the house. I’m sure you must be delighted. But you know what? I will eventually get back everything that belongs to me, and when that day comes, I will chase you out of our family!”

“Stephanie, what are you talking about?” Amelia asked with a look of bewilderment on her face.

“Oh, come on, Amelia. Don’t—”
