Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 265 What Makes You Think So

Two hours had passed by the time Amelia regained consciousness. Tiffany came rushing to her side the moment she saw her wake up and asked worriedly, “How are you feeling, Amelia?”

Amelia rubbed her throbbing forehead. “What happened to me, Tiff?”

“You fainted.”

Hearing that reminded Amelia of the unpleasant memories from earlier and caused her headache to worsen.

“What’s wrong? Does your head hurt?” Tiffany asked anxiously when she saw the pained expression on her face.

Amelia lay back down on the bed and said, “I need some time alone, Tiff.”

Tiffany was still worried. “Babe, we should get you checked at a hospital if your head is still hurting.”

“No, I just need to get some rest. Otherwise, I won’t have the energy to negotiate with Oscar later on,” Amelia said.

Who would’ve thought a couple as close as us would someday end up having to negotiate? What a joke, eh?

“All right. You rest well now.” Tiffany decided not to persuade her any further and simply sat down quietly on the side.

Amelia thought to herself as she glanced at Tiffany through the corner of her eye. I feel so bad for Tiffany. I’m always dragging her into my mess, and yet she would always stay by my side without a single complaint. I bet some people could go their entire life without having such friendships!

“Thank you, Tiff!” she said sincerely.

Tiffany held her by the hand as she replied, “Babe, you being okay is all that matters right now. We’re friends, so you don’t have to stand on ceremony with me. If you want to divorce Oscar, then that’s exactly what we’ll do. After that, we’ll try our best to help you get custody of Tony so you two can leave this place for good. Since things have come to this, there’s no point in worrying too much about it. You can’t look after Tony if your condition becomes worse, so take good care of yourself, all right?”

Amelia let out a wry chuckle and stared at the ceiling above as she said, “Tiff, do you really think I’m in any condition to raise Tony well even if I get custody of him? What if he blames me for troubling him with my blindness? Given how wealthy and powerful the Clintons are, wouldn’t it be best if he stays with them instead?”

Tiffany froze for a brief moment before exclaiming anxiously, “Amelia, have you lost your mind? Not only are you giving up on your marriage with Oscar, but you’re going to abandon Tony as well? You risked your life giving birth to that kid, and now you’re going to just leave him behind? I can help raise him for you if you’re worried that you can’t do it well, but I sure as hell won’t let you leave him with the Clintons! Don’t you know what happens to kids with stepmothers? Besides, do you really think the Clintons are going to treat a motherless child like him well? Have you forgotten that Stephanie still plans on killing him?”

Amelia felt a shiver down her spine when she heard that.

“You can still see, right? I’m sure everything will get better soon. You may not be able to save your marriage with Oscar, but you shouldn’t give up on Tony. With him around, you’ll have a reason to keep going. On top of that, he’s your only remaining connection with Oscar. You wouldn’t want to actually cut all ties with him, would you?” Tiffany added.

Amelia simply kept quiet.

are you acting like you’re a living corpse or something, huh? What happened to all that confidence and pride of yours? You survived a f*cking car accident, only to get all depressed over some problems with your vision? Maybe the doctors shouldn’t have tried so hard to save your life if they knew you’d just give up on it afterward! Seeing you like

I’m all out of options here. Amelia has way too many concerns on her mind, and her huge ego prevents her from staying with the Clintons even if they don’t mind her disability. However, given the size and power of the household, she’d most likely face discrimination from some of its members anyway. As such, choosing to leave before she becomes fully blind is the only way to protect
