Love You Enough to Leave You novel Chapter 388

Chapter 388 Burning Bridges

The next morning, Oscar ordered Amelia to stay put while he clumsily packed her clothes for her.

He only took what he could fit into a single suitcase as they could always shop for clothes after arriving in Anglandur.

“Let’s head out for breakfast, Honey,” Oscar said after he was done with the suitcase.

Amelia nodded, and the two of them left the bedroom.

Kurt and Hugo were already waiting for them by the time they came downstairs.

Oscar shot them a glance and commented, “You two sure are early today.”

“We’ve only just got here a while ago, Boss,” Hugo replied.

Oscar carefully sat Amelia down on the sofa before turning toward Hugo. “Are the flight tickets all prepared?”

“Yes, Boss.”

Just then, Tiffany came running out of the kitchen with a spatula in hand. “Hey, Oscar! Just so you know, I’ll also be joining you guys on your trip to Anglandur! You’re not taking Amelia there without me!”

Oscar shot her a cold glare as he asked, “You promised Derrick yesterday that you’d go back with him if he was all right. It has only been one night and you’re going back on your word already?”

Tiffany was clearly a little intimidated, but she refused to back down and argued defiantly, “I’m not! I’m just worried about Amelia, that’s all! You just showed up all of a sudden and asked her to go to Anglandur with you! For all we know, you could be trying to trick her into going there so you can sell her to human traffickers or something! I have to go with her to ensure her safety!”

Tiffany’s excuse was so lame that even she herself found it hard to believe.

“Me? Sell her off? Your ability to insult people sure has decreased significantly over the past two years, huh, Tiffany?” Oscar replied with a smile so unnatural that it gave her the creeps.

“You, on the other hand, have gotten a lot better with your comebacks, Mr. Clinton!” Tiffany said with an awkward chuckle.

“Thank you for the compliment.”

D*mn… Not only did he become more shameless, but he also got snarkier too! I don’t even know if I can beat him in an argument now!

With that in mind, Tiffany sat down beside Amelia and held her hand as she said, “I don’t care, I’m going to Anglandur with you, Amelia! I’m really worried about you and Tony!”

“What about Derrick, then?”

“I’ve talked to him about this last night. We’ll go back to that city once you return from your surgery in Anglandur.”

“Did he agree to it?”

“He has to. We’ve been having a long-distance relationship for almost two years now. I’m sure we can handle being apart for a couple more months.”

“Tiff, you two should start discussing your marriage now that your relationship has stabilized.”

“Babe, getting married two years into a relationship is a little too soon. Besides, we haven’t even introduced each other to our parents yet.”

The Hissons are a wealthy and powerful family, so it won’t be easy for me to marry into it. Derrick’s parents are bound to disapprove of our relationship, so things are only going to get difficult once we return to that city…

Tiffany fell silent at the thought of that, while Amelia tried to comfort her best friend by holding on to her hand.

Naturally, Oscar could tell what their concerns were based on the looks on their faces. “I’ll take you in as my godsister once Amelia’s eyes are all better. Even a prominent family like the Hissons wouldn’t dare give you a hard time then.”

Amelia and Tiffany both glanced at Oscar in unison.

Tiffany had a conflicted look in her eyes as she didn’t expect him to help her out, especially after all the trouble she had caused him for Amelia’s sake. Oscar would never have cared about my personal affairs before. He must really love Amelia if he’d agree to help me out like this!

“Oscar, do you really mean that?” Amelia asked.

“You’re afraid of the Hissons objecting to Tiffany’s relationship with Derrick, right? If she becomes my godsister, the Hissons won’t have the guts to bully her even if they don’t like her family background. Those who wish to collaborate with Clinton Corporations would know better than to go against me!”
