Love You Enough to Leave You novel Chapter 425

Chapter 425 Just A Reminder

After parting with Faye, Amelia decided to visit Oscar at work, so she hailed a ride and called the man when she was on her way. It did not take long before her call was answered.

“Hey, are you busy?” asked Amelia with a sweet smile as though nothing Faye said had affected her mood.

“Not really. Have you had lunch yet?” Oscar’s voice sounded caring and gentle.

“I have. What about you? Don’t you dare forget to take lunch because of work!”

“Yes, ma’am. I’ve already had lunch too.”

“Good. I’ll prepare something delicious for dinner tonight.”

“You have to give me a kiss before I hang up.”

Shyly, Amelia glanced at the driver to ensure that he was not looking at her before quietly blowing Oscar a kiss.

“Still in the honeymoon phase, huh? You’re making me jealous,” teased the driver after Amelia ended her call.

“He’s a busy man, but he does make time for me.”

“Someone as pretty as you must have a very capable husband.”

“I guess you can say we’re comfortable financially. He makes enough for us to get by.”

On the way, Amelia had a good time chatting with the driver.

Meanwhile, Oscar smiled to himself as he stared at his phone after the call. Everyone else in the meeting room was curious to see the man smile. Nonetheless, they felt much less pressured when they noticed the man’s change in mood.

Suddenly remembering that he was still in a meeting, Oscar lifted his head to meet the others’ gaze, causing them to quickly look away.

Oscar then cleared his throat before continuing with the meeting. “Mr. Waltz, your proposal is worth considering. Just make the necessary adjustments like I told you, and I’ll review it again. Now, if nobody else has any more questions, that’s it for today.”

The manager addressed quickly wiped off the sweat beading on his forehead before responding to Oscar, “Yes, Mr. Clinton. I’ll be sure to rectify the mistakes and I promise you won’t be disappointed.”

“I’m sure I won’t be, Mr. Waltz. Hey, take it easy. You’ll do just fine,” encouraged Oscar with a pleasant smile.

Everyone in the room, including the manager, was surprised to see how laid back Oscar was, for the man had always been highly critical at work. They could not help but wonder who it was on the phone that had such influence over the man. Whoever that person is, they may have just saved us from a terrible day.

After the meeting was ended and everyone else left, Isabella approached Oscar. “Was that Mrs. Clinton, Oscar?” Even though Isabella asked the question casually, she was filled with jealousy on the inside. Seeing how a single phone call from Amelia was enough to turn Oscar’s mood around, Isabella envied Amelia’s influence over the man.

Oscar stopped walking and turned around to give Isabella a stern look. “Ms. Walker, we didn’t hire you to engage in gossip at work. Just because you have my mother’s support doesn’t mean I can’t fire you.”

Upon hearing that, Isabella had to take a deep breath to calm herself down. “I just didn’t expect you two to be even closer after being apart for two years. I’m just a little jealous of your relationship. That’s all,” explained Isabella with a forced smile.

Without saying anything in response, Oscar simply turned his back on the woman and walked away, but she would not leave him alone.

Oscar picked up his phone and called his secretary when Isabella followed him into his office. “Linda, come in here and walk Ms. Walker out.”

After that, Oscar ignored Isabella and proceeded to focus on his work.

“Do you really hate me that much, Oscar?” questioned Isabella as she leaned on the man’s desk.
