Chapter 219 Crying Uncontrollably

As Olivia walked Amelia to the car with Tony in her arms, the maids loaded their luggage into the car boot.

Still unable to be at ease, Olivia kept fussing over Amelia. “Amelia, I’ll take this as a short break for you, but please take care of yourself and Tony. Come back as soon as you’ve thought things through. Don’t take too long, though. Otherwise, I’ll be heartbroken.”

Amelia merely nodded in response.

Olivia then turned to Oscar and said, “Come say something to Amelia.”

Ever the thoughtful person, Olivia got everyone to step back to give Oscar and Amelia some privacy.

“Honey, do you really have to go?”

Amelia’s eyes glistened as she lowered her head. “I just want some peace and quiet.”

“If you don’t want to live here, we can always move back to the apartment. We can get Molly to help us with Tony. You don’t have to go to Tiffany’s.”

Amelia sighed before meeting Oscar’s unwavering gaze. “Mr. Clinton, do you still not understand? The problem between us isn’t about that. It’s that whenever I think about how much more you value others over Tony and me, it’s like a stab to my heart. Give me some alone time, and I might get over it in a few days. I no longer want to bury my emotions. It’s too tiring.”

Oscar was about to caress Amelia’s face when she moved away from him.

As his hand hung in mid-air, an awkward silence ensued until Amelia whispered, “I should go now.”

“I can let you stay out for a few days, but I can’t have you overthinking things. I’ve opened my heart to you because that’s how much I want to be with you. Not just for today, but forever. You, me, and Tony, we’re a family. I can’t live without either of you, do you hear me?” Oscar said firmly.

Tears suddenly welled up in Amelia’s eyes as she started to have doubts about her decision. However, whenever she thought about what Stephanie had done and how the Clintons had condoned her, she couldn’t help but find them and their actions loathsome. It was also then that she realized how fragile relationships were.

Amelia averted her gaze from Oscar and replied, “I’m leaving now.”

Amelia finally got into the car and beckoned for Tiffany, who took Tony from Olivia before joining her.

As soon as they were all safely in, the chauffeur drove off.

Oscar stood rooted to the ground, staring wistfully at the car leaving. His expression remained stoic despite the many thoughts running through his head.

Owen patted Oscar on his shoulder in a bid to comfort him. “Give her some time.”

Oscar didn’t respond in any way.

“Let’s go back into the house. We can visit Amelia in a couple of days,” Olivia suggested. “We’ve truly let her down this time, so it’s only understandable that Amelia wants some time alone.”

Owen nodded as Olivia turned her attention toward Oscar.
