Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 678

Amelia carried him up. “I'm fine.”

When Oscar returned at night, she told him what had happened in the afternoon. He thought for a while and asked, “Do you want to go back?”

Amelia didn't hide what she thought. “Not really. I know he still hates me from the way he looks at me. He's probably trying to acknowledge me as his daughter simply because of the Clintons. I was worried he wanted to use you. Now that I think about it, maybe I was too rash when I acknowledged my mother.”

Oscar pulled her into his embrace and gently patted her head. “You're wasting time on insignificant problems, Amelia. I know you're worried, but if you want to do it, just do it. No need to be concerned about me. The Hutton family is still a rich family in Saspiuburg. If I collaborate with him, I may get more resources in Saspiuburg. In other words, I might end up using the Hutton family instead.”

Amelia smiled.

She knew he was just trying to comfort her because the Clintons definitely didn't need her to gain more power.

Hugging his waist, she said, “I'm just worried that I'll bring you a lot of trouble, Oscar.”

“Silly girl.” Oscar kissed her forehead. “Go and take a shower. I'll tell you a story once I'm done.”

The edge of her lips curved upward. She was feeling much better.

Once she was done, she lay in his embrace on the bed. It was then she received a call from Tiffany.

“Babe, I got good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?” Tiffany sounded obviously excited through the phone.

Amelia was infected by her joy. She smiled and asked, “Bad news first.”

“The bad news is that I'm no longer a free woman because I'm getting married.”

Amelia chuckled. “What about the good news?”

“Good news is that I'm marrying someone! Finally, there's a stupid man out there who's willing to marry me. The wedding is set to happen three months later. Don't forget to give me a huge monetary gift, okay?”

“I won't.” Amelia was happy for her.

“I want you to be my bridesmaid when the time comes, Babe. Also, thanks for the gift. I'll take good care of it. If I really do get pregnant, I'll stop working and rest for a year. I'm already over thirty years old. It's time for me to think about children, and I've decided that no job is more important than having a child.”

That made Amelia even happier. “I'm glad you came to that decision. But I don't think I can be your bridesmaid because I'm married with a child already. It's bad luck for someone like me to be your bridesmaid. I think you should find someone else. I'll just give you a big monetary gift when the time comes.”

“Aren't you going to watch me getting married, Babe?”

“Of course I will. But you really should find a bridesmaid who isn't married yet. I'll visit you tomorrow and talk to you more about it.”

“Okay. See you tomorrow.”

Hanging up the phone, Amelia grinned widely. “Tiff and Derrick's wedding has been set. I guess they finally won over Mrs. Hisson.”

“Are you happy now?”

Amelia nodded because she was really happy.

Her husband loved her, her son was obedient, her in-laws had chosen to forgive her, and her best friend was getting married. It was one good news after the other. She felt as though all the misfortunes she had suffered before were a lifetime ago.

With that good news in mind, she quickly fell asleep.

The next day, Amelia dressed plainly before heading out. To her surprise, she saw Sean waiting downstairs.

“Hey, Amy. Can I call you that?” Sean stared at her warmly.

Amelia smiled sincerely. “Of course you can. You're my brother, after all.”

Sean shrugged mischievously. “Do you have time, Amy? Walk with me. I have something I want to discuss with you.”

Amelia said yes.
