Robert arrived quickly and examined Olivia. “Olivia, you’re not young anymore. You should really learn to control your emotions.”

Owen asked nervously, “Robert, is she okay?”

“She needs a good rest. She got overly agitated which caused her to go out of breath. Be careful in the future though. Her heart is a little weaker than normal so she can’t withstand such pressure again.”

Owen said sullenly, “Okay. I was negligent this time. I won’t let it happen again.”

Robert nodded. “Olivia is generally fine so don’t worry too much. All right, I have to get back to the hospital.”

“Thanks. I won’t walk you out then,” replied Owen.

Robert waved his hands and replied, “It’s fine. We’ve already known each other for so long.”

After he left, Owen glanced at Oscar and Stephanie in displeasure. He said in a low voice, “Did you guys hear that? If anything were to happen to your mother today, you guys can forget about coming back to the Clinton residence ever again.”

Stephanie’s eyes were reddened. She said, “Dad, I didn’t do it on purpose. If it wasn’t for this jinx, Mom would have never gotten angry.”

Owen glared at her and lowered his volume even further. “Your mother is sleeping so I don’t want to wake her, but you need to remember that Amelia is your sister-in-law. You’d better apologize to her for being rude.”

Stephanie scowled at Amelia, who was standing at one side. “You want me to apologize to this jinx? I won’t. I’ve never accepted her as my sister-in-law anyway.”

Then, Stephanie ran off.

Owen clenched his fist, looking displeased.

Amelia walked over and said, “Dad, don’t be mad at Steph. She’s still young and may not understand you. Plus, she really cherishes Oscar, so she’ll naturally find fault with me.”

Owen looked thoughtfully at her and sighed after a while. “Amelia, you’re pregnant. Don’t tire yourself out. Go back and rest.”

When Amelia glanced at Olivia, he continued, “I’ll take care of her.”

Amelia knew Owen did not really like her, so she left without another word.

Owen then turned to Oscar, who had been silent the whole time. “Oscar, I don’t know what’s going on in your mind, but I want you to stay away from Cassie. You’re already married with a child and you’ve seen how much your mother likes Amelia. You just can’t be with Cassie.”

Oscar had a complicated look in his eye. After a while, he replied, “Dad, I really want to marry Cassie. She’s someone that I’ve always desired to be with.”
