Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 223 Visiting

Olivia’s illness prompted Amelia to let go of all the grudge and anger she held earlier. The latter asked Tiffany to babysit Tony, then got into Oscar’s car to head over to the hospital. She even bought tons of fruits and supplements on the way over.

Even when they were in the car, Amelia asked nervously, “Oscar, do you think mom will be mad at me for being immature and not taking care of her when she is sick?”

Oscar freed up one hand to interlace his fingers with hers. “Don’t worry. Mom has always liked you, and the only reason her illness acted up is that she feels like she wronged you. She will let go of that guilt once you visit her, and I’m sure she will recover immediately after.”

Amelia was still nervous anyway. She was worried that Olivia would be mad at her for leaving with Tony. Regardless of the situation, Olivia was her mother-in-law, and Amelia couldn’t refute even if Olivia insisted on blaming her.

Oscar took another look at Amelia before commenting, “You and mom really are alike. Like you, she worried that you would blame her for Stephanie’s matter. Overthinking is the reason she got ill again. Her heart has always been weak, and Mr. Lancester had warned her multiple times that she shouldn’t get agitated or overthink things. Stephanie’s act truly infuriated mom this time, and I’m sure mom will recover faster once you visit her. Your visit will surely lift her mood.”

Amelia forced herself to grin a little.

“Are you feeling better?”

Amelia changed the topic and asked, “You haven’t slept well in days, Oscar. Are you sure you’re okay? Should I drive instead?”

Oscar couldn’t help grinning at that. He stared at Amelia and teased, “Oh, you’re not calling me Mr. Clinton anymore? You have no idea how heartbroken I was that day when you took Tony away and called me Mr. Clinton. At the time, I wondered if you had truly decided to leave me. Now that I hear you calling my name again, I realized that my name is actually pleasing to the ears!”

Amelia couldn’t resist rolling her eyes at him. She realized that after they professed their love to one another, Oscar’s distant style was up and gone. He became talkative and loved teasing her. It was as if someone had unlocked the hidden feature of his tongue, and his words just flew out like bullets in a machine gun.

“Mr. Clinton, where is that cool style you used to have?”

Oscar put on a straight face and asked, “Do you not like the change?”

Change… That word hit a bull’s eyes in Amelia’s heart. She instinctively turned to Oscar, and her lips curved into a smile.

She later tilted her head down a little to hide that smile. Her voice was a little annoyed when she reminded, “Oscar, in the future, you must inform me beforehand no matter when you go, even if we are having a fight. At least send me a text to tell me that. I don’t want to have to ask others before I get to contact you or learn about your whereabouts.”
