Chapter 132 A Meeting
Oscar held Amelia’s waist as they left the staircase. As they exited, they ran into an oncoming Elizabeth.
When she noticed their intimate posture, Elizabeth did a double-take before taking a few breaths and walking up to them.
“Oscar, didn’t you tell Cassie that you had something on at work? I didn’t expect to see you here having such a public display of affection in the hospital,” said Elizabeth sarcastically.
Oscar kept on a straight face as he replied, “Mrs. Yard, Amelia’s here for a checkup. As her husband, I can’t leave her alone. I told Cassie that I had work because I didn’t want her to overthink anything. Cassie has you to care for her and when I’m done here I actually have to get back to the company anyway. I’m really busy with work. I think you should understand that, right?”
Elizabeth nodded. “If you’re busy with work, I understand and support you. If a man only knows how to flirt with women all day, I’ll really look down on him.”
She paused, then changed the topic. “But Oscar, since you’ve rekindled your relationship with Cassie, I want you to treat her sincerely. I don’t want you lying to both parties. Right now she’s only known as a mistress. You used to be a couple and even grew up together. You shouldn’t lie to her no matter what.”
Oscar’s expression darkened.
Amelia glanced at Oscar then replied, “Mrs. Yard, Oscar and I are legally married. Is there anything wrong with my husband accompanying me to my checkup? They were indeed a couple in the past, but don’t forget that it was Cassie who gave him up first. I’m his wife now. You’re criticizing him as if he’s some heartless traitor, but I’m sure Oscar doesn’t actually have to take responsibility for Ms. Yard. To put it bluntly, we don’t even know who’s the father of Ms. Yard’s child, right?”
Elizabeth’s expression changed, although she was now less agitated.
“Ms. Winters, both you and your friend are indeed from poor backgrounds. You both speak so ignorantly, making me wonder if you’re even educated. Are you suggesting that Cassie cheated on Oscar by saying that her child is not his?”
Amelia was taken aback. She really did not properly think through whatever she had just said.
Oscar gently squeezed her waist before Amelia snapped out of it and composed herself.
Amelia said, “I didn’t mean it that way, Mrs. Yard. But if you think that your daughter has been having an affair with another man, then I’ve nothing else to say.”
Elizabeth laughed coldly.
Oscar tightened his hold on Amelia’s waist. “Mrs. Yard, our baby is getting hungry. I’ll take Amelia to get some food first. Please take care of Cassie. I’ll come back to the hospital tonight.”
“Oscar, tell me the truth. Are you
