Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 69

No wonder they call it true love. Even if there were incriminating photos of Cassie with another man at a nightclub, a simple explanation from her had Oscar wrapped around her little finger once more. No matter if the explanation makes absolutely no sense, he still thinks of her as some innocent little lady.

Amelia just closed her eyes and remained silent.

“Are you tired?”

Amelia shook her head.

“So what did you think of what I just said?”

“After the divorce, I will get sole custody and sizable alimony, not to mention a more-than-adequate amount of child support. Since I love money so much, do you think I will reject your proposal?” Amelia shrugged while replying.

Oscar’s lips curved into a smirk, and he appeared to be in a good mood.

When they reached the Majesty Group building, Oscar parked the car on the side of the road. As Amelia removed her seatbelt to get out, she said, “Mr. Clinton, drive safe.” She then opened the door to alight from the car.

Oscar halted her. “As your chauffeur for today, shouldn’t I get a little something as a thank you?”

As Amelia turned around, she saw Oscar gesture at his cheek. Chuckling, she kissed his cheek and meant to leave immediately, but Oscar was faster. He held her head in place and gave her a French kiss.

When they finally broke apart, Amelia was blushing furiously. She appeared coquettish and looked even more seductive than before. Even Oscar’s gaze had changed as he swallowed, his Adam’s apple bobbing.

Amelia rolled her eyes weakly at him and tidied her mussed-up hair before leaving the car quickly.

Once she entered the office, everyone stared at her knowingly. She felt awkward at the attention, which didn’t end when she reached the design department. Some of her close colleagues even smirked when they saw her. The atmosphere was unsettling and perplexing.

One of her more familiar female colleagues came up to her and stared at her neck. She chuckled, “Amelia, it looks like your husband is a pretty passionate person. I’m sure you both enjoyed a pretty intense night yesterday.”

Amelia felt her cheeks heat up. How can I discuss my sex life with other people!

“Jessica, what nonsense are you saying! We’re at work; don’t talk to me like that, or Mr. Scott will have your head if he sees us,” Amelia replied.

Jessica just pointed at her neck and laughed. “Amelia, there’s a very prominent hickey on your neck. I’m not sure anyone is going to think otherwise.”
