Love You Enough to Leave You novel Chapter 298

Chapter 298 Have A Talk

Oscar drove at top speed. It only took him twenty minutes to get to the neighborhood where Tiffany lived. After parking the car, he quickly took the elevator upstairs.

Standing in front of her apartment door, Oscar was going to knock on the door, but then he withdrew his hand almost immediately. He adjusted his suit and made sure his appearance was immaculate before knocking on the door.

Shortly after, the door was opened from the inside, and he came face-to-face with a middle-aged woman.

“Are you Mr. Clinton?” the woman asked after a moment of contemplation.

Oscar replied, “Yes, I am. Is Amelia here?”

“Sorry, she’s not in at the moment. She went out with Tiffany and should be back in the evening. Would you like to come in and take a seat, Mr. Clinton?” the woman said.

Oscar nodded in response.

As the woman stepped aside to allow him to enter, he asked, “Where is Tony?”

“He’s in the nursery. Kurt is watching over him. Go in and check on him. I’ll prepare some fruits for you,” said the middle-aged woman while wiping her hands. She was not wary of Oscar, as she knew that Amelia had once been married to him.

He nodded before entering the nursery.

At that moment, Kurt was carrying Tony, and an odd expression flashed across his face when he noticed Oscar coming in. Nevertheless, he brought Tony over to him while greeting respectfully, “Boss.”

Oscar fixed his gaze on his son as he stretched out his hands. “Let me carry him, Kurt.”

Kurt hesitated momentarily, yet he still did as he was told to and handed Tony over to Oscar.

However, Tony, who was quiet while being carried by Kurt, started bawling as soon as he was placed in Oscar’s arms. His high-pitched howls caused the usually calm and collected Oscar to feel awkward. His son’s cries left him nonplussed.

Oddly enough, it seemed that Tony tended to put Oscar in awkward and helpless situations as though he held a grudge against him. Despite that, Oscar felt his anger dissipating quickly upon gazing at Tony’s facial features that were very similar to Amelia’s.

Kurt looked concerned when he saw the baby wailing in Oscar’s arms. “Boss, Tony probably hasn’t seen you in a while, so he’s not used to it. Let me carry him instead.”

Oscar shook his head before instructing, “Leave the room for now. I wish to speak to Tony.”

Kurt hesitated upon hearing that. He was obviously reluctant to leave Tony with his boss, as he was afraid that his clumsiness would scare the baby.

“What’s the matter? Can I not spend some time alone with my son? Or perhaps you wish to take my place since Amelia and I have divorced? Don’t forget that I trained you, Kurt. You are a bodyguard, and Amelia is your client. During your training back then, I had already set the rule that you mustn’t develop feelings for your clients. Has it slipped your mind?”

After Kurt heard Oscar’s words, his expression changed.

Oscar gazed at him with piercing eyes. “If I could promote you back then, Kurt, I can also ruin you right now. Amelia is mine, and you can never lay your hands on her. Remember who you are and don’t cross the line. Otherwise, I’ll have to get rid of you.”

Kurt lowered his head to hide the emotions in his eyes. His fingers slowly curled into fists as a myriad of emotions overwhelmed him.

“Get out,” Oscar said coldly.

Despite his order, Kurt merely stood right where he was. A murderous look flashed across Oscar’s eyes as he sensed that Kurt was beginning to defy him.

“Are you planning to go against me, Kurt?” Oscar inquired warningly.

“I dare not, Boss. I merely think that since you and Amelia have already divorced, any single man would have the right to pursue her,” Kurt said. Unexpectedly, he refused to obey Oscar’s order.

Oscar’s gaze instantly darkened as he strode toward Kurt. Although they had little height difference, the menacing aura Oscar exuded made him seem more overbearing in comparison.

Perhaps it was due to the fact that Kurt had been working under Oscar as a bodyguard since he was young. Kurt had always felt great reverence for Oscar. Therefore, he felt intimidated when he confronted Oscar.

“Have you fallen in love with her?” asked Oscar.

Kurt lowered his head. “I’m sorry, Boss. I didn’t mean to,” he replied, indirectly admitting to it.

Oscar suddenly let out a laugh.

“Well, isn’t that great? Amelia is pretty and also very kind. It’s normal for a guy to be attracted to her. However, I thought that you weren’t interested in relationships, so this caught me by surprise.” He reached out to pat Kurt’s shoulder, but he deliberately used more force as he went on, causing Kurt to scrunch up his face in pain.

“But don’t you forget that she’s mine, Kurt. She still belongs to me even after our divorce. I’ve never once thought of letting her go. Should you dare to touch her, there won’t be any need for you to remain by her side any longer,” threatened Oscar.

Kurt stood perfectly composed as he stared back at Oscar impassively. “Boss, as long as Amelia remains single, I have the right to pursue her. If she decides to rekindle her relationship with you, I’ll return to being her bodyguard. I’ll also make sure to conceal my feelings deep within me.”
