Love You Enough to Leave You Chapter 194

Tiffany went to Amelia’s bed and straightened the latter’s fringe. “Babe, are you awake? You gave me a shock yesterday.”

The oxygen mask had been removed from Amelia’s mouth, but she still looked pale with her chapped lips.

“You must’ve been worried.”

Tiffany placed the fruits she brought along on the ground as there were plenty of other gifts on the table. There was no more space for her stuff.

Shannon came to them and showed her concern. “Ms. Winters, do you feel better? Tiffany just told me you were in an accident, so I came with her to visit you.”

Amelia flashed a weak smile. “Ms. Shannon, thank you for visiting me.”

Shannon then placed the fruits she brought on the ground as well. Amelia turned to Olivia and said, “Mom, please get a chair for Ms. Shannon.”

Olivia dragged a chair over. “Have a seat. I’ll cut the fruits up for you.”

At once, Shannon waved her hand. “No need, Mrs. Clinton. You don’t have to go to all the trouble.”

A pleasant smile was hanging on Olivia’s lips as she said, “You’re Amelia’s friend, right? Don’t stand on ceremony. As you’re our guest, I should serve you some fruits.”

With that, she took the fruits and entered the washroom to wash them.

A flash of concern appeared in Shannon’s gaze. “Ms. Winters, you look really pale. Are you alright?”

Amelia shook her head to tell her not to worry. “I’m alright. I’ll get better after some rest.”

Shannon inclined her head and fell silent.

She wasn’t that close to Amelia as she had gotten to know the latter through Tiffany.

Instead, it was Amelia who broke the silence. “Have you had lunch?”

“We ate some before coming here. What about you?” asked Shannon.

“I took some soup earlier.” Something occurred to Amelia and her lips curved into a grin. “I’m craving meat now. It feels like I haven’t eaten meat for ages. Ugh, just thinking about me got me salivating!”

Both Tiffany and Shannon burst into giggles.

“Babe, you’ve just been operated on, so you won’t get to eat meat for some time. But upon your recovery, I’ll prepare a meat feast for you, alright?”

Amelia swallowed hard. “Tiff, I can’t eat meat now. So stop tempting me.”

Her words made both Tiffany and Shannon titter in delight again.

“Ms. Winters, I thought you’re a sexy and aloof woman, but turns out you have a hilarious side to you, huh?” teased Shannon as she wiped her tears of joy away.

Tiffany didn’t forget to chime in, “Shannon, she might seem like a seductive vixen, but she’s actually cuckoo. Only those who are close to her get to see this side of her. She’s always aloof to others. When you get to know her better, you’ll find out how silly she is. I can’t help but tease her.”

Amelia shot Tiffany an exasperated glance as Shannon laughed her heart out.

When Olivia came out with a plate of fruits, she saw them chattering happily. She smiled and went over to them. “Sounds like you’re having a fun time. What are you chatting about?”

Shannon covered her stomach that hurt from laughing too much and blurted out, “Tiffany said Ms. Winters is a cuckoo and told me not to be fooled by her looks.”

Olivia placed the plate on the table and gestured for them to eat the fruits.

Affected by Olivia’s warmth, Shannon gradually relaxed. She picked a piece of fruit and took a bite. “Mrs. Clinton, do you think Ms. Winters is a cuckoo?”

Olivia took one look at Amelia and beamed. “Amelia’s a considerate and kind young lady. She might look like a sexy and promiscuous woman at first sight, and to be honest, when Oscar wanted to marry her back then, I was worried. I wanted him to marry an obedient wife, so Amelia’s looks didn’t make the cut. But the more time I spent with her, the more I adored her. Her most likable trait is that she’s filial. I’m glad to have her as my daughter-in-law.”

Upon hearing that, color returned to Amelia’s face slowly.

Envy shone in Shannon’s gaze. “Mrs. Clinton, you’re gorgeous, elegant, and nice. Ms. Winters is lucky to have you as her mother-in-law. I hope my future mother-in-law is half as nice as you.”

Olivia gave Amelia a slice of apple. “Amelia, you can only eat a little.”

After Amelia took a bite, Olivia gave a half-smile. “Shannon, right?”

Shannon nodded, feeling flattered.

Olivia proceeded to share her opinion. “Shannon, I don’t agree with your words. Actually, it isn’t as complicated as you think. Those mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fights you see on TV are mostly made-up. Most moms want their sons to have a blissful life with their wives. Why will they be happy to see their sons fighting with their wives? Of course, there are some moms who want to control their sons and they’ll treat their daughter-in-law as enemies. That’s the minority, though. You’re pretty and amiable, so your mother-in-law will surely be the same.”
