Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 579

Chapter 579

Amelia was crying sadly, and Molly did not know what to do.

“Mrs. Clinton, please... Oh sweetheart, please don't cry. I don't know what to do whenever you cry,” Molly comforted her.

Amelia continued to sob silently.

After a while, she buried herself in Molly's arms, all choked up, and said, “Molly, am I that unlovable?”

“Of course not. Mrs. Clinton, you're beautiful, elegant, and kind. Besides, you're respectful to your in-laws and take good care of your husband and son. You even make your own money. In my eyes, you're a hundred times better than most of the girls your age.” Molly could not stop praising her.

Amelia let out a bitter chuckle. “If I'm that outstanding, my biological and foster parents would not abandon me. I'm only good in your eyes. Maybe in others' eyes, I'm worthless.” Amelia felt miserable.

The Winters family's attitude toward her had been a thorn in her heart. Even though she was an adult now and had her own family, this matter was like a lump in her throat. She could not remove it, nor could she ignore it. From time to time, she felt her heart ache from this matter though the pain would not kill her.

“Nonsense. Mrs. Clinton, you're a kind person, and many people like you.” Molly continued, “Mrs. Clinton, don't overthink it. Though the Winters family does not treat you well, as a bystander, I will not ask you to cut ties with them. You can make your own choice, and I will always be on your side.”

Amelia finally laughed through her tears after hearing that.

“Molly, thank you.” If it weren't for Molly, she would have overthought things.

“Mrs. Clinton, sit here first. I'll get you some hot milk.” Molly sat her down on the couch and spoke gently.

Amelia took Molly's hand, and the latter stared at her curiously. Then, Amelia said, “Molly, please don't tell Oscar about what my parents said just now. No matter what happened, they had raised and nurtured me.”

Molly knew exactly what she meant because the former had experienced something similar.

“Sure,” she replied.

“Thank you, Molly.”

“Don't mention it. It's what I should do.”

Amelia sat on the couch in a daze after Molly headed to the kitchen to prepare some food.

By the time Oscar opened the door and entered the house, Amelia had already calmed down and returned to her composed self.

Then, he walked toward her. Amelia stood up and asked, “I thought something happened to your project? Why did you come back?”

Oscar stroked her cheek and asked gently, “Where's Dad and Mom?”

“They went back to the hotel. My dad said he hadn't seen me for years and he's not used to staying at my place. So, I sent them back to the hotel,” Amelia explained calmly.

Oscar observed her expression silently.

Amelia smiled. “Are you hungry? I'll get some food for you. Jolin brought Tony somewhere to play. I guess he must be overjoyed.”

Oscar stared right into her eyes, and his stare made her heart skip a beat. She felt a little guilty because it felt like he could see right through her thoughts.

“Oscar, why are you staring at me like this?” Amelia asked, pretending she did not know anything.

Oscar pulled back his hand and said in a coquettish way, “Honey, I'm hungry. Prepare something for me to eat.”

Amelia heaved a sigh of relief. “I'll prepare some food for you now.”

Oscar's face turned extremely dark as he watched Amelia walking into the kitchen.

After finishing the food Amelia had prepared, he planted a kiss on her lips. Then, he said, “If you're okay, I'll return to the company first. I still need to handle the project, and I might come back late tonight. If you're hungry, eat first. There's no need to wait for me.”

Amelia nodded. Then, she replied, “All right. Take care. If you're going to work till late, remember to have your meal. Don't work with an empty stomach, okay?”

“Yes, ma'am.”

Amelia accompanied him to the entrance. Then, she waited until he entered the elevator before shutting the door.

After Oscar walked out of the elevator, he made a call.

“Help me find out which hotel Mr. and Mrs. Winters are staying at,” Oscar ordered.

After Oscar hung up the phone, he walked to his car. Then, he opened the car door and sat inside.

Though Amelia did not say anything, he could feel that she was not in a great mood. She tried to keep it to herself, and she could hide it from everyone except Oscar.

The man couldn't help but sink into deep thoughts. How dare they bully my wife in front of me? I will not let this go easily. Since they bullied my wife, I will make them pay for what they've done!

Soon, Oscar's phone buzzed. When he opened the text message, he saw the address of the hotel Mr. Winters and his wife were staying.

Oscar drove straight out of the neighborhood and headed to the hotel.

When he opened the door, Dominic was stunned to see a handsome, tall guy.

“May I know who are you?” Dominic asked politely. His daughter had been married for seven years, but as her father, Dominic had never seen his son-in-law before. This showed that either Dominic was cold-blooded, or he failed as a father.

“I'm Oscar, Amelia's husband. I came to pay a visit because I heard my in-laws were in town. Dad, may I come inside?” Oscar replied in a rather polite manner.

Dominic shifted his gaze away nervously, but he moved sideways to let Oscar enter nonetheless.

Melanie stared at Oscar as he entered the room. Confused, she asked, “Dominic, who is this?”

Oscar answered, “Mom, I'm Oscar, Amelia's husband. I didn't get to meet you during our wedding, and I thought you'd... I'm sorry. Please forgive my negligence as your son-in-law.”

Dominic's and Melanie's expressions fell after they heard his words.

Melanie pointed to the couch and stuttered, “Hi, Oscar. Please have a seat. Make yourself comfortable.”

“Thank you, Mom.” Oscar sat down as he observed Dominic and Melanie silently. They were not as spiteful as Oscar thought they would be, and they did look like two honest and ordinary people. However, these two people nearly forced Amelia to a dead end.

Sometimes, people who were caught in a tragic situation asked for it themselves.

“Dad, Mom, why didn't you inform me before you came to Tayhaven? I could've prepared a banquet to welcome you,” Oscar said calmly.
