Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 421 Let Her Go

Carter asked with a sweet tone as he watched Anthony happily enjoying an ice cream, “Tony, is it good? I ordered that especially for you.”

With tears still lingering in his eyes, Anthony mumbled, “Since you came with Ms. Larson, could you help me apologize to her when you see her later, Mr. Scott? Although she was mean to Mommy, I was told I must treat elders with respect. It was my fault for throwing a napkin at her. Hence, I’d like to apologize to her.”

Carter’s heart was softened by what he heard. He stroked the kid’s head gently and said, “Even adults need to be punished if they’ve done something wrong. But indeed, you were wrong for what you did. All right, I’ll apologize to her on your behalf.”

Hearing that, Anthony nodded and answered, “I like you, Mr. Scott.”

While watching them interact harmoniously, Tiffany turned toward Amelia and said sarcastically, “Amelia, it seems like your son admires everyone else except Oscar. I do pity him for having a son who detests him.”

Tiffany was gloating within.

Amelia merely glanced at her in response. If you said it with a more serious expression, I might actually think you sincerely feel bad for Oscar. However, you do have a point. Why on earth does Tony dislike his father so much when he could get along with everyone else just fine? They’re father and son for goodness’ sake; yet, they quarrel all the time.

Amelia couldn’t wrap her head around the questions going through her mind.

“When did you come back, Amelia?” Carter asked blandly. He was worried that his feelings might scare her away, so he suppressed the excitement in his eyes.

“It has only been a few days since I got back. I meant to call you sometime later but who would’ve thought that we would actually bump into each other,” Amelia answered politely.

Although he could tell that Amelia’s words were just common courtesy, he couldn’t help but feel overjoyed. I’ve looked for you for two years, and now you’re here. Euphoria took him over as every sense of logic in his mind faded.
