Love You Enough to Leave You novel Chapter 200

Chapter 200 Chased Out Of The Clintons

Olivia’s finger trembled as she pointed at Stephanie. The former’s heart was overflowing with complex emotions. There was anger, fury, and disappointment, but more than anything, Olivia was heartbroken.

She carried Stephanie in her womb for nine months and raised the kid while doing the best she could. Olivia never thought that Stephanie would go as far as hiring someone to cause an accident. Worse still, her target is her own sister-in-law, who is on the verge of giving birth to her brother’s baby! If her plan had succeeded, both the mother and the baby would have perish in the accident! That would have left a devastating impact on any family. Did she even think about any of these before she did something so reckless?

Olivia couldn’t believe that her daughter would do something as vile as attempted murder just because of the so-called hatred in her heart. Get new chapters update on novelheart.com

If the news that the Clintons’ young daughter plotting to kill her own brother’s wife and baby got out, everyone would mock and laugh at the family. They would also point the finger at Olivia and blame her for being such a terrible parent. They would say that she might have given her daughter a plentiful life, but she never taught her daughter right from wrong.

Olivia only thought that her daughter was simply a little spoiled. The former never imagined that the latter would attempt murder.

She was overwhelmed by a plethora of emotions. She thought that she knew her daughter well, but at that moment, she felt like she was staring at a stranger.

Stephanie, however, stubbornly insisted, “Yes, I hired someone to kill Amelia, but she deserves it! Once she’s dead, our family will be able to revert back to its warm and peaceful state.”

Fury rose up within Olivia at that. She lifted her hand and swung it across Stephanie’s face.

Stephanie held her face. She couldn’t believe she was slapped twice within a day.

“Mom, did you just… slapped me?” Get new chapters update on novelheart.com

Olivia put her hand over her chest in an attempt to calm the turmoil within. She didn’t know what she was feeling anymore. All she knew was the fact that there was a sharp pain stabbing through her heart.

She panted for a while before growling in an uneven tone, “I didn’t just want to slap you. I downright prayed that I never gave birth to you! If I had known that you would grow up to be such a despicable person, I would’ve aborted you back then.”

Stephanie was stunned.

Olivia’s heart ached physically from the anger she was feeling.

Owen quickly held her in his arms and cooed, “Calm down, Olivia. Let’s talk and be civil. You’re in no shape to be so agitated.”

Olivia leaned in his arms, but she never looked away from Stephanie.

Seeing that prompted Owen to scold, “Stephanie, apologize to your mom right away. Just look at what you’ve done to her.”

Owen was trying to let Stephanie off easy. Despite everything, he still cared about his daughter. He didn’t want things to become too bad between his wife and daughter. Some day, he would think back and realized that it was possible that his wife was the only one who was heartbroken at the time.

Stephanie stood there numbly.

Owen sighed internally. He couldn’t help putting his foot down and commanding, “Stephanie, what are you still standing around for? Apologize to your mom right now!”

Stephanie’s lips trembled. She wanted to apologize, but Olivia’s harsh words crushed that thought. Olivia said, “I don’t need her to apologize. Since she made a grave mistake, she must be punished for it.”

Owen was exasperated when he said, “It was a one-time thing, and Stephanie acted impulsively, Olivia. Let’s not remain that agitated. Amelia and the baby are fine, aren’t they? Everything is okay. It’s not like you want Stephanie to go to jail either, right?”

Olivia glared at Owen in disbelief.

“Even after all this, you’re still condoning her behavior? She hired someone to kill for her! It doesn’t matter who her target is or if her attempt was successful. This is no longer about honor or morals. She broke the law, and I want her to understand that despite the Clintons’ wealth and power, we are not above the law. She made a mistake, and no one will clean her mess up every time she does so!”

Olivia’s words were almost identical to the words Oscar said to Stephanie earlier.

Owen shifted his gaze down and started thinking about it.

Stephanie howled, “Mom, you’re actually going to send me to prison?” Her voice was shrill because she was too nervous.

Olivia had calmed down by quite a bit. She sighed and said, “You are my only daughter. It doesn’t matter what mistake you made, I will never want you in prison. That is a mother’s selfish wish. Everything we do is for the sake of our children.”

Stephanie’s eyes glowed with immense surprise.

“Mom, does that mean you’ve forgiven me?”

Olivia shook her head and replied, “Stephanie, I need you to move out of the family home today. You’re getting older, and it’s time you learn how to be independent.”

Stephanie froze.

“What does that mean, Mom?”

“It means that your dad and I will cut you off financially. You should go look for a job and learn that it is not an easy feat to make ends meet. You can also learn who your true friends are. Some only put on an act to feign kindness,” informed Olivia in a strict tone.

“I will contact your personal friends and our family’s friends after you move out. I will tell them that the Clintons will no longer support you financially, and you can see if any of your so-called friends would lend you a helping hand. It’s time for you to grow up. I have been spoiling you and have turned a blind eye to everything you have done to Amelia. Now, I realize that was a grave mistake. It’ll be good for you to venture out and learn independence. You will inevitably suffer a little, but you will learn just how genuine and kind Amelia had been toward you,” said Olivia.

Stephanie was truly freaking out.

That punishment was worse than being slapped a hundred times over. How will I survive without any financial support? How will I afford all my branded bags and clothes? And how will I live a luxurious life?

“Mom, I made a mistake, and I will apologize to Amelia. So please, don’t cut me off.”
