Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 269 She Will Forgive You

Oscar drove Amelia back to the Clinton residence in total silence. Olivia was playing with Tony when they returned. She got to her feet with Tony in her arms and gave them a warm grin. “Tony, look who’s back!”

Tony was around five months old. He was growing at a faster pace compared to other children. Now, he no longer cried at the sight of Oscar, but he wasn’t that close to his father, either. The person he was closest to was Kurt.

“Daddy, Mommy.” Olivia held his little hand and tried to teach him how to talk.

Tony waved his hands around excitedly. At the sight of his chubby cheeks, Amelia felt her heart dropping to her stomach. She didn’t know if she had made the correct decision by ending their marriage selfishly. Tony was deprived of the right to have a father in his life.

Guilt overwhelmed Amelia’s heart, for a child who grew up without his father or mother would have an incomplete childhood.

Tony, when you grow up and find out why I left your father in the first place, will you blame me for having my way?

Olivia was sharp enough to sense something was wrong between Amelia and Oscar. “What’s going on?” she urged.

Snapping back to reality, Amelia gave Oscar an awkward glance before parting her lips to explain. Alas, words failed her.

Oscar wrapped an arm around her waist nonchalantly and grinned. “Mom, we’re fine. Amelia’s sticking to me like a child.”

Olivia relaxed visibly as her lips curved into a smile. “I’m glad to see you two being such a lovely couple.”

Amelia reached out to take Tony from her arms. “Mom, you must be tired from taking care of Tony. I’ll take over now.”

A smiling Olivia was about to say something when Stephanie ran down the stairs hastily. “Mom! Cassie just called and said she had sex with Oscar last night. Amelia caught them in the act. She wants Oscar to take responsibility for her, saying that the Yard family won’t let it slip easily!” she hollered.

Amelia’s arms tightened around her son while Oscar’s expression fell. Olivia glanced at them in disbelief.

It took her some time to regain her composure. She immediately glowered at Stephanie and chided, “Stephanie, stop talking nonsense. Oscar had been with Amelia the whole night. Are you trying to cause trouble again, huh?”

Stephanie pouted. “Mom, I wasn’t spouting nonsense. It was Cassie who called and told me about it. Apparently, Mr. and Mrs. Yard are going to come later to demand an explanation. If you don’t believe me, ask Oscar about it.”

Olivia turned her gaze to Amelia and Oscar.
