Chapter 143 Overheard,Love You Enough to Leave You

Elizabeth explained, “If I could, Cassie, I would go all out to get rid of Amelia’s baby. However, you’ll be Olivia’s first suspect if Amelia loses her baby at this juncture. Don’t forget that Olivia treats Amelia like her own daughter.” Upon hearing this, Cassie became exceedingly desolate. After moments of silence, she wailed uncontrollably and tossed the pillows around like a mad woman. “Why? Why? Why?” Elizabeth tried to console her with a hug. “Calm down, Cassie. Your wounds might split open. You’ve just had a miscarriage, so don’t get too agitated. Stay calm all right?

Breathe… Your Dad and I will talk to Oscar, okay? Don’t worry.” Cassie buried her head in her arms and bawled her eyes out. Her emotions were very unstable and pulled her wound. Elizabeth tried to hold her down and stop her from moving around. “Be still, Cassie. I’m here. If you really want to get rid of Amelia’s child, I’ll see to it and make sure that nobody knows about it.” It was only then did Cassie finally regained her composure. “Mom, will you really do it for me?” As a transient shadow of sorrow passed over Elizabeth’s face, she cast a conflicting look at Cassie. “I’m your Mom. Don’t you feel bad for tricking me into doing such a thing for you?” “I’m sorry, Mom. I’m just scared.

Amelia’s child is a big threat to me. The baby will only bring her closer to Oz. I’ll only have peace once it’s gone.” Suddenly, Elizabeth felt that her own daughter had become so distant and strange that she no longer knew her anymore. The Yards are a prominent family that values customary rites, good etiquettes, and virtues. Although it can be quite complicated when socializing with people from all sorts of backgrounds, the need to scheme and plot is definitely out of the question. She did not expect her own daughter to come up with such underhanded plans. Cassie had turned into a person that she was no longer familiar with. She had never wanted to see Cassie grow up naively in her own ivory tower.

Yet, she had never wanted Cassie to turn into someone so cunning and manipulative. “Cassie, you’ve changed too much. I feel so distant from you now,” Elizabeth was very honest. She quickly held Elizabeth’s hands. “Mom, I’m still your sweet little girl.” Elizabeth withdrew her hand and said, “Let me get over this. Cassie, I don’t know you anymore. You have instilled fear in me.” Upon hearing that, Cassie struggled to get off the bed. Elizabeth yelled at her, “Don’t move!” Her high-pitched voice stunned Cassie. Her body stiffened while her eyes welled up. She asked softly, “Are you okay, Mom?” Elizabeth scratched her head in frustration. Her disheveled look did not reflect her identity as a noble lady.

“Stop talking, Cassie. I’m very troubled by what you’ve become because of one man. My beloved daughter has now turned into a conniving person. I don’t know how to respond to this change in you. If the condition of your health allowed it, I’d have given you a tight slap to remind you not to stoop so low for a man. Wake up, you’re the pride and joy of the Yard Group! You make my heart aches.” Tears streamed down Cassie’s face. “No, Mom, I’m not like that. I just…” “That’s enough. I don’t know you anymore. Since the day you are born, you’ve been provided with the best of everything—food, clothes, to schools and teachers.

You also excel in everything that you do. However, somehow and somewhere, you grew up to be a devious person who manipulates your own family members in the pursuit of love. I’m very disappointed with you. What went wrong that contributed to the undesirable changes in you?” “Mom, don’t be like this…” Elizabeth was too overwhelmed with the tumultuous of emotions that her voice became shrill. “Cassie, my only daughter, I love you. I don’t want you to lose yourself because of one man. I want you to be a strong and independent woman, who is pure and innocent. I’d never expected you to deceive your own parent.” Cassie wrapped her arms around Elizabeth’s.

“No, Mom, I won’t do that again. I promise. I just love Oz too much that I’m fearful of losing him.” Feeling upset, Elizabeth’s breaths quickened. With the two rising to a clamor, they did not notice the door to the ward had been unlocked. Oscar entered the ward and heard something unbelievable. “Cassie, I carried you for ten full months. Nobody loves you more than I do. I’ve been putting in lots of effort to educate you, but what have become of you? You wanted me to get rid of Amelia’s baby. I’m disheartened to the core. The girl whom I’ve raised has become so wicked… It’s better you heard these from me than anyone else.” “Mom, Oz is mine solely, and Amelia is just my substitute.
