Chapter 567 You Are Inhumane

Oscar followed Amelia into the kitchen before looping his arms around her waist from behind. While resting his chin on her shoulder, he asked, “Amelia, are you in a bad mood?”

Amelia squeezed out some dish soap to wash the dining utensils. “Why do you say so?” she asked smilingly.

“Intuition.”

Amelia smiled wordlessly but didn’t stop washing the dishes.

After cleaning all the plates, she turned to stand on her toes and kissed him on the lips. “Don’t overthink this. Let’s take a nap in the room later.”

Right after she wrenched herself free of his grasp, she got pulled back into his arms before she could walk any further.

“Amelia, we’re a married couple. Although the past few days I did use some harsh language, and we did argue a little, I’ve apologized to you. I’m no longer angry at you. You should speak your mind instead of keeping it to yourself. Otherwise, it’s going to make me feel uncomfortable,” Oscar said while resting his chin on the top of her head.

Amelia snuggled against his chest before directing her question back at him. “Are you being entirely honest with me, though?”

Hearing that, Oscar cast his gaze downward.

“Did someone gossip to you?” he questioned after licking her earlobe.

“Someone saw you at the gastroenterology department, and Julian was accompanying you. Why did you lie to me?” Amelia asked in dejection. “Why did you lie to me when you’re the one who’s feeling unwell?”

Oscar raised her chin and stared into her eyes.

“Tell me. Who tipped you off?” he asked in a quiet voice.

Amelia fell silent for a moment before saying, “Oscar, I’m not trying to blame you for lying to me. It’s just that you would rather get Julian to accompany you just so you could keep me in the dark. Am I so untrustworthy?”

Oscar looked down and locked eyes with her. After a moment, he heaved a soft sigh and said, “I’m sorry. I just didn’t want you to worry about me.”

Amelia chuckled ruefully as she freed herself from his arms. There was a tinge of melancholy to her voice.

“Oscar, you keep me in the dark about everything. I only got to know that you went to the hospital from someone else. Tell me. Do you no longer trust me?” she asked in a low voice with her against him.

Oscar stared at her longingly and then reached out to forcefully pull her into his embrace. After that, he led her out of the kitchen.

They settled down on the sofa, and he had Amelia sit on his lap while he wrapped his arms around her waist. “Amelia, stop moving around. You know men have a hard time reining in their desires. I might just have sex with you on the sofa if I can’t resist it,” he whispered.

Amelia glanced at him and ceased moving about, for she could already feel the movement underneath her.
