Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 409 I Am Not Blaming You

Meanwhile, in the living room of the Clinton residence. Stephanie held Olivia’s arm and asked, “Mom, why did that woman return?”

Olivia took a glance at her and said, “Your brother is deeply in love with her. After he found her, he even brought her to Anglandur for a short vacation. From now on, stay out of his business, okay? Just focus on your relationship with Noah and get married soon.”

Stephanie got annoyed when she heard that. “Don’t worry about me, Mom. Things are great between Noah and me. In fact, he’s deeply in love with me. So much so that he can’t wait to marry me,” she said pridefully. “But Mom, Oscar has been disobeying you ever since Amelia got back. How could you just let him be?”

Olivia calmly tapped on Stephanie’s shoulder. “Stephanie, just focus on your relationship with Noah, okay? Stop interfering with others’ relationships. I’ll handle Amelia myself. Since she was the one who gave up on us in the first place, I’ll never accept her as one of the Clintons.”

“How about Tony? Are you going to deny him as well, Mom?”

Seemingly irritated by Stephanie’s words, Olivia gave her a hard stare. “Watch your words, Stephanie. Tony is not only your nephew but he’s also the next in line to inherit everything our family owns. So don’t you dare say that we’re going to abandon Tony again.”

Stephanie pursed her lips and acted innocent. “I didn’t mean it like that, Mom. I’m hoping that you could take Tony away from that crude woman. Did you see how he raised his voice at me just now? He’s still such a young boy! The only explanation for his behavior is that the woman hasn’t taught him manners at all.”

A mix of emotions flickered across Olivia’s face.

“Don’t interfere in your brother’s relationship anymore, Stephanie. You’re getting married soon. Is that how you’re going to speak to Noah’s parents? It’s about time you learn to treat elders with respect and please them,” Owen scolded.
