Love You Enough to Leave You Chapter 188

Oscar planted a kiss on Amelia’s forehead and excused himself. “I’ll be right back.”

Amelia nodded in consent.

Oscar walked out of the room with her and Elizabeth, but Cassie felt sad as she watched him from behind.

She took a deep breath and probed, “Oz, you are in love with her, aren’t you?”

Oscar paused, then he replied, “She is my wife.”

Cassie pouted in silence as they head back to her ward.

“Oscar, could you kindly help me carry Cassie back onto her bed?’ Elizabeth requested.

Oscar hesitated for a brief moment. He went ahead to bend down and carried Cassie. She wrapped her arms around his neck and stared at him, enamored. “Oz, have I lost a lot of weight? Am I ugly now? You have not looked me in the eye for a long time. Do you not love me anymore because I am no longer beautiful?”

Oscar calmly put her down on her bed and turned to Elizabeth. “Mrs. Yard, have a seat too. We need to talk.” He pointed at the sofa.

“Oz, let’s talk between the two of us,” Cassie pleaded.

Elizabeth looked tired and was not overbearing like the day before.

“Oz, you have a good talk with Cassie. I am tired and do not wish to be part of your affairs. I will wait outside.” The threat of divorce from Charlie may have shocked her. She was visibly more subdued.

Oscar stepped forward and blocked her exit. “Mrs. Yard, why don’t you sit down? Amelia is in her room with only two nurses. I do not wish for you to interrupt her rest.”

Both Elizabeth and Cassie’s faces fell upon hearing that.

Cassie face contorted as she shrilled, “Oz, are you worried my mom will hurt your wife?”

Oscar sat on the sofa, composed and with an air of dominance. “Better safe than sorry. In the past, I have over-indulged you. From now, I shall not allow you to even think of hurting Amelia.” He made his stand very clear.

Cassie bit her lips. She had never seen Oscar behaved this way to her. She could see no love in his eyes.

What a big change in attitude! Did he lose all his love for me in just a few months? Or maybe he has never loved me?

She shivered at her own thoughts but quickly brushed them off. She would want to believe Oscar only wanted to scare her with such harsh threats. Indeed, she had to admit, she did go overboard and pushed his limits.

Yes, that must be it. He still loves me. Otherwise, he would not have tolerated all my nonsense.

Cassie was not sure how Oscar felt, so she whined meekly, “Oz, Ms. Winters is your wife. I will respect her. It is also my wish to be able to get along with her. I swear this is the truth.”

“Cassie, I do not want to beat around the bush. After this accident, I realized how important Amelia is to me. I do not wish to divorce her. Let’s break up,” Oscar calmly declared.

Cassie was dumbfounded. She snapped out of the state of shock and hurled her pillow at Oscar. “Oscar Clinton, don’t you have any conscience? You were in distress when she got into an accident. Why can’t you feel anything when I had a miscarriage, attempted suicide, and almost fell to death?”

Oscar fixed his gaze at her. After a long while, he confessed, “Cassie, when love is gone, it is gone. Even if we forced ourselves to stay together, we would not be able to recapture the passion we had.”

Cassie hid her face in her hands and cried her heart out.

Elizabeth walked up to her, hug her close, and consoled, ‘Cassie baby, it’s okay. Mommy is here for you.”
