Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 719 Stephanie Is Pregnant

Isabella saw how their bodies pressed against each other closely and immediately caught on to the situation. Her eyes reddened slightly, and a glint of resentment flashed across her gaze. It was only when she got hit by the pen holder thrown over by Oscar that she snapped back to her senses. She hung her head low to hide the growing anger and jealousy in her gaze.

“Oscar, bad news! The company owned by June from the Adertons has bought over the project documents that got stolen. June even held a press conference and announced that they were going to work on this project with full force. Once they start, we can only put the project that we’ve already started on hold. The money we invested will be wasted too,” Isabella reported anxiously, suppressing the jealousy welling up in her.

Oscar merely shot her a cold stare and replied indifferently, “You should leave first.” “Oscar…”

“Get out.” Pursing her lip, Isabella left the office unwillingly. Amelia moved away from Oscar and glared at him. “Oscar, you were acting rashly just now. What if someone came in halfway? I’d be too ashamed to come to the company again.” Oscar stood up and asked patiently, “Are you upset?”

Amelia shook her head, but her face turned slightly solemn.

“Oscar, June held the press conference and claimed the project you guys have spent days and nights working on as his own. It seems like he bribed the accountant from your company long ago. Not sure if the accountant is so driven by money that he doesn’t even care about his wife and children. I guess he’s probably a relentless man. June came prepared and seemed determined to bring down Clinton Corporations. I have no idea why he would hold such grudges against us,” said Amelia.

Oscar scoffed, “He is merely a clown putting on a show. If you hadn’t suggested that during the meeting, I would’ve held another meeting and ordered all the employees to work overtime to come up with a plan that could reduce the loss as much as possible. But now, I’d really like to see who would suffer more loss.”

Amelia replied firmly, “I trust you.”

Despite saying that, she felt that June had come fully prepared and was confident of winning the battle. June had always been a sinister man. He behaved like a gentleman in front of everyone, but she knew he was a psycho who would take all risks. In addition, June had always been at a disadvantage all this while when he was fighting against Oscar. Hence, he had probably already taken Oscar as one of his most potent enemies.

Clinton Corporations had been dominating the industry in Tayhaven. Many businessmen were afraid yet jealous of it. If June intended to gather the others for collaboration, he only needed a carrot-and-stick approach to have those enterprises jealous of Clinton Corporations join forces with him. Clinton Corporations was getting pressured by all sides. If all the enterprises were to make things difficult for Clinton Corporations, the latter would have a hard time, too. Or worse, Clinton Corporations would face its downfall if they were to make a slight mistake.

Amelia’s mind was a complete mess. She had no idea about June’s next move.

Oscar held her by the waist and chuckled. “Why? Are you worried I can’t even win against those small fries?”

“I believe in your capability. It’s just that I can’t help feeling irritated by the fact that those annoying flies are eyeing Clinton Corporations.” Amelia wrinkled her nose playfully as she said that.

Looking at her eyes, Oscar could not help but burst into laughter.

“Annoying flies? What a great description,” replied Oscar, laughing.

His laughter seemed to be infectious, and Amelia started laughing along too.

Just then, someone knocked on the door, and Oscar responded, “Come in.”

Isabella pushed the door open. Holding a document, she walked over to Oscar and said, “Oscar, I stayed up all night and rushed out this proposal to deal with the current situation. Initially, I thought I wouldn’t have to put it into use that soon. Little did I expect June to make such a swift move. Have a look at it. If you think it works, let’s hold a press conference according to this proposal.”

“It’s okay. I already came up with a plan to deal with the crisis. We will change the children’s theme park project we’ve previously invested into a children’s water park that focuses on cultivating children’s swimming skills and intelligence. Amelia suggested this proposal, and I think it’s a good idea. Besides, we don’t have many similar parks in the country. If we execute this plan, we will surely attract many parents bringing their children to our park.”

Isabella shot a glance at Amelia discreetly. I will never get a chance to prove my ability if Amelia is here. And Oscar will never pay attention to me. This is so irksome! What right does she have to get Oscar’s attention that easily?

“Oscar, I don’t think it sounds like a good idea. I don’t think people will be interested in a children’s water park. Besides, the construction of the project we’ve invested in has already begun as scheduled. We’ve invested quite a significant amount of money too. Hence, we can’t just change it into a water park as we please. If no one comes to the park after we build it, we’ll lose a lot of money. I know you dote on Amelia because she’s your lover, so you probably didn’t think the proposal through rationally. It’s a project worth a few hundred million, and you can’t just act as you wish,” Isabella advised earnestly.

Amelia merely listened to Isabella without making any comments.

Oscar glanced at Isabella. He truly disliked her self-righteous acts.
