Chapter 388 Burning Bridges

The next morning, Oscar ordered Amelia to stay put while he clumsily packed her clothes for her.

He only took what he could fit into a single suitcase as they could always shop for clothes after arriving in Anglandur.

“Let’s head out for breakfast, Honey,” Oscar said after he was done with the suitcase.

Amelia nodded, and the two of them left the bedroom.

Kurt and Hugo were already waiting for them by the time they came downstairs.

Oscar shot them a glance and commented, “You two sure are early today.”

“We’ve only just got here a while ago, Boss,” Hugo replied.

Oscar carefully sat Amelia down on the sofa before turning toward Hugo. “Are the flight tickets all prepared?”

“Yes, Boss.”

Just then, Tiffany came running out of the kitchen with a spatula in hand. “Hey, Oscar! Just so you know, I’ll also be joining you guys on your trip to Anglandur! You’re not taking Amelia there without me!”

Oscar shot her a cold glare as he asked, “You promised Derrick yesterday that you’d go back with him if he was all right. It has only been one night and you’re going back on your word already?”

Tiffany was clearly a little intimidated, but she refused to back down and argued defiantly, “I’m not! I’m just worried about Amelia, that’s all! You just showed up all of a sudden and asked her to go to Anglandur with you! For all we know, you could be trying to trick her into going there so you can sell her to human traffickers or something! I have to go with her to ensure her safety!”

Tiffany’s excuse was so lame that even she herself found it hard to believe.

“Me? Sell her off? Your ability to insult people sure has decreased significantly over the past two years, huh, Tiffany?” Oscar replied with a smile so unnatural that it gave her the creeps.

“You, on the other hand, have gotten a lot better with your comebacks, Mr. Clinton!” Tiffany said with an awkward chuckle.

“Thank you for the compliment.”
