Chapter 288 Reaching An Agreement

After comforting Amelia, a maid knocked on the door and reported, “Mr. Clinton, Ms. Amelia, Mrs. Clinton wants you to go downstairs for dinner.”

Amelia looked at the door and pursed her lips reluctantly.

Oscar glanced at her before raising his voice to answer. “I’m not well. Bring our meal up.”

The maid grunted in acknowledgment and left to do as told.

Amelia stared at him silently.

Stretching his hand out, Oscar patted her head in a comforting manner and said, “If you don’t wish to head down, we’ll just stay here.”

Amelia’s eyes glistened. He could read me so well.

Oscar’s understanding had moved her. She was afraid she’d lose herself in his love and care. Even after they got a divorce, her memories would be full of him.

She avoided Oscar’s touch and slept on her side. “Oscar, you should head down for dinner. I’m not hungry. I need to take a nap.”

Looking down at his empty palms, Oscar felt extremely disappointed.

“You should eat before that or it won’t be good for you.”

Amelia’s lips twitched before she said, “Oscar, we’re about to get a divorce. Do you think it’s normal for us to act like a loving couple?”

Glancing at her side profile, Oscar said in a domineering but gentle voice, “As long as you’re still my wife, I have the right to do this. Or do you dislike me getting close to you?”

Amelia responded with silence.

Soon, the maid delivered their meal. Under Oscar’s insistence, Amelia finished some meat and soup. After her meal, she felt a little drowsy.

“Go to bed if you’re sleepy,” Oscar said tenderly.

Lying in bed, Amelia felt sleepy, but her mind was rather clear. As she wanted to avoid Oscar’s passionate gaze, she pretended to fall asleep.

She remained still for some time, so Oscar thought she was asleep. He bent down and planted a gentle kiss on her forehead. “Don’t worry. I’m here, so no one can hurt you. We’ll get a divorce, and you’ll get Tony’s custody. I’ll make sure you get everything you want,” he vowed solemnly.
