Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 307 Heartless

For the next month, Oscar’s men searched around for Amelia, but she was nowhere to be found. It was as if she had fallen off the face of the world, and there was no sign of her anywhere.

His initial confidence gradually turned to anxiety. Tuning all his uncertainty into his work, he became a workaholic who toiled day and night. As a result, his employees had no choice but to increase their workload. It hence did not come as a surprise that Clinton Corporations’ performance increased by leaps and bounds. The results showed that they had outperformed last month by twenty percent, but no one was pleased by that. If this were to go on, they’d scrape themselves dry during their time of youth.

Jerry knocked on the door with the report in her arms. After Oscar granted her entry, she headed in and greeted, “Mr. Clinton.”

Without looking up, Oscar focused on dealing with the documents on his desk and asked coolly, “What is it?”

“This is the performance of the Sales Department this month. Please take a look at it.” Jerry handed the report to him.

“Leave it on the desk.”

Jerry left the report on the desk as instructed. She gazed at Oscar, who was working hard more than ever. A hint of doubt flashed across her gaze. A month had since passed, and everyone in the company knew that Amelia and Oscar were divorced. Amelia also left the city with the Clintons’ eldest grandson and disappeared into thin air. No one knew where they were. Though the Clinton family was influential and had connections, they couldn’t unearth any clue about Amelia’s whereabouts. Thus, Oscar poured all his time into work and made life hard for his employees.

As their superior was working hard, it was clear that they couldn’t do their jobs perfunctorily, right? They didn’t work poorly, to begin with, for Clinton Corporations was a huge company that wouldn’t hire inefficient employees. However, their workload was much heavier now, and they would definitely collapse out of exhaustion one day.

Sensing her gaze, Oscar finally looked up. He frowned and cast her an icy look. “Anything else?”

A chill ran down Jerry’s back, for it felt like Oscar was a soulless working machine that barred anyone from coming close to him.

After making up her mind, Jerry said, “Mr. Clinton, I think you should take care of your health. Work is important, but your health is too. Working nonstop will only bring you down.”

Oscar glanced at her before looking away. “You can leave now.”

Jerry fell silent for a minute before going all out. “Mr. Clinton, if Mrs. Clinton was still around, she wouldn’t want you to disregard your health. Previously, she told me to remind you not to work nonstop and take your meals on time no matter what. Mr. Clinton, you didn’t have your meals regularly and even skipped meals occasionally for the past month. It’ll take a toll on your health. I believe Mrs. Clinton will worry about you,” she uttered.

Finally, Oscar reacted to her words. He raised his head, looking a little lost.
