Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 327 We Are Moving

Kate spoke while Amelia was still deep in thought. “Ah, I finally remember. You look a lot like Oscar Clinton’s wife. That woman really made an impression. She’s classy—and not blind.”

As soon as they heard that, both Amelia and Tiffany became anxious.

Kate sensed their restlessness. “Don’t tell me you’re actually his wife. I met her a few times about two to three years ago. I do have to say, you bear a lot of resemblance to her, but your vibe is a little different. Anyway, I heard she divorced Oscar some time ago, and the family has been looking for her since. So if you’re really her, I will have to let Olivia know.”

The two women felt like they were about to be pushed off the cliff. They even suspected that Kate knew this secret all along.

Crap! She must’ve come knowing I was Oscar’s wife just so she could chase us out. Wait, don’t overthink, Amelia. It might just be a coincidence. Stop jumping right to the worst-case scenario. She might not be that evil.

After that train of thoughts, Amelia took a deep breath and tried to calm herself. “The Clintons? I’m afraid I’m not following.”

Kate took a good look at her and decided to drop the act. The woman crossed her legs and sat back on her couch like a queen. “Fine. Let’s just say I did a background check and confirmed that you were indeed Oscar’s wife. I’m not interested in how both of you come to know Derrick, neither am I interested in what you both did to him until he’s willing to give up the whole family just so he can keep you guys under his wings, but let me make this clear: The Hissons have no intention whatsoever in making the Clintons our enemies. I don’t want to incur their wrath because of you two. They are looking for you now—Wait, let me correct myself—They are looking for the child you have with you, so you’re left with two options. It’s either both of you leave and stay away from Derrick, or I’ll inform the Clinton family. I’m sure you’re aware of what they’re capable of. You won’t get to see Anthony ever again if they find out.”

Amelia clenched her fists so tightly that red and deep nail marks started appearing, yet that was not what was agonizing her.

“You’re despicable!” Tiffany seethed.

Despite that, Kate remained calm as she straightened her fingers and marveled at the splendid manicure on her nails. “No, I’m not. This is just how I protect my son. Derrick is too good for you, and you don’t deserve him. I’m simply doing what every mother would do for their children. I want him to marry someone worthy of him, not someone who is of no use to him.”

Tiffany turned pale. She had always thought Kate was a frail and sickly woman. It was until their encounter that she saw for herself what kind of a woman she was.
