Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 148,Love You Enough to Leave You

“I’ll leave it to the two of you then. I’m old now, and I can’t meddle in the affairs of young people anymore,” Elizabeth said, somewhat grudgingly. “Oz, if you no longer feel the same for Cassie as you did at the beginning, then you shouldn’t have led her on. Cassie could have gone on to much better things at Erihal. Perhaps she could even have become a world-class pianist after two or three years. The Yard family doesn’t lack money, but it’s always good for women to have a profession of their own.” Oscar stared steadfastly ahead without speaking. Elizabeth sighed. “Oz, I’m truthfully quite disappointed with you.

I’d always believed that you were a man of your word. However, you’ve gone back and forth between two women, taking pleasure in both of them even as they suffer from your indecisiveness. As a woman, I despise men like you. Of course, I strongly objected to Cassie becoming a third party in your marriage. It’s too bad that she’s my only daughter. As much as I disapprove of her, she’s all I have, and I’ve got to support her. I can’t stand by idly and let you hurt her.” Elizabeth finished off her surprisingly moving speech by gazing up at Oscar defiantly. Oscar looked away. After pausing for a moment, he met Elizabeth’s eyes.

“Mrs. Yard, I didn’t think things through since the beginning, so I’m truly sorry for that. I’ll definitely deal with Cassie tactfully and deal with her as gently as I can. Even though we may no longer be a couple, I’d still like to affirm that as long as she needs help, she only has to tell me. I’ll immediately drop everything to help her to the best that I can. This is my promise to her. You can be sure that I’ll keep my word.” Elizabeth’s resentment towards Oscar had greatly lessened by this point, and her face was no longer as tense as it was. “Oz, this is the promise you have made, so you can’t go back on your word for the rest of your life.

All I have is Cassie. Even if you don’t end up together with her, I hope that you’ll help Cassie retain Yard Group and fend off prying hands. Cassie’s excellent at playing the piano, but she doesn’t have much experience in business dealings. I don’t know if Cassie will be able to manage things,” Elizabeth replied. Oscar nodded. “Mrs. Yard, I promise that whatever happens between us, I’ll never let Yard Group fall into the hands of an outsider. This is my solemn promise to you. As long as Cassie asks for help, I’ll come to her aid.” Elizabeth was pleased. “Oz, it’s late.

I’ll be heading back with Tiff in a while,” Amelia said. “OK.” Over the phone, the husband and his wife spoke tenderly. The conversation bloomed with an intimacy that had never happened before in their interactions over the years. An air of bashful romance floated over each of them. Neither Oscar nor Amelia was willing to be the first to

On their end, Tiffany glanced at Amelia kindly after she hung up, saying, “Babe, you look ridiculous. If you smile any wider, your teeth are all going to fall out.” Amelia clapped both her hands to her cheeks, feeling her ears burn with embarrassment. Tiffany sighed at her friend’s hapless state. This silly girl is digging deeper and deeper into her own grave every day! Tiffany was pleased to see Amelia’s joy but remained wary of the worst possible

But what isn’t destined to be mine will be taken away from me eventually. I’ll just go with the flow. What’s mine will be mine, and I’ll let go if it isn’t meant to be. There’s no point in forcing things.” Tiffany began to panic. “Babe, are you really OK?” Amelia looked sober. “Tiff, I’m not that fragile. I’ve always

Amelia said with an air of enlightenment. Tiffany surrendered. “Fine, Babe. I respect your decision. If you have chosen not to get involved, then I shan’t either. Don’t expect me to be polite to the Scotts, though. That’s the best I can do to keep myself from rushing over and beating them up. I get all
