Love You Enough to Leave You novel Chapter 93

Oscar was still gazing at her when he suddenly placed his hand on the back of her head and pulled her in for a kiss. The kiss was intense, and they were momentarily lost in each other. Amelia was left in a daze when they finally pulled away, her cheeks flushed from their kiss. “Still angry with me?” Oscar asked, his forehead resting gently against hers. Amelia looked at him in bewilderment. “Mr. Clinton, why are you doing this? Am I just a pet to you? One that you play with when you’re happy but gets tossed aside when you aren’t?” “Go to sleep. I’ll leave now and come back in two hours,” Oscar said while patting her head. Amelia was silent as she lay back in bed and hid under the covers. Oscar watched over her for the longest time.

But once he realized she had no intention of coming out from under the covers, he left. When the door closed behind him, Amelia finally pulled the covers back down. She stared at the ceiling, crestfallen. “Oscar Clinton,” she muttered. “Is there still a future for us?” The silence in the ward was deafening. Oscar got in his car after having taken the elevator down and smacked the steering wheel before driving off. The drive to Cassie’s took almost thirty minutes. The door opened almost immediately after he rang the bell, and Cassie threw herself into his arms. Oscar caught her and had to half-drag her back into the house. Cassie snuggled against Oscar’s chest and whimpered, “Oz, I thought you weren’t going to come.”

Oscar remained stoic as he let her hug him. Cassie felt the reluctance in him and looked up. “Oz, are you not happy to see me?” Oscar reassured her with a hug. “Stop imagining things. I wouldn’t be here if I weren’t happy about it.” Cassie buried her face into his chest. “Oz, I know I threw a tantrum at you earlier, but I hope you won’t be angry with me,” she said softly. “You know how it is with pregnant women. We just become so much more sensitive about everything. The doctor told me this was prenatal depression, but as long as you spend more time with me, my mood will definitely improve.” Oscar only held her in his arms as he coaxed her. “Don’t think too much about it. I’ll spend more time with you in the future, now be good and go to bed.” Cassie clung to him like a koala bear with no intention of letting go.

“Oz, I’m not sleepy yet. Why don’t you chat with me? We haven’t had a chat like this for a while now,” she pleaded. “Sure.” Cassie gently rubbed his chest like a cat kneading away. “Do you still remember where we had our first kiss?” Oscar was taken aback by her question. He genuinely couldn’t remember where they had first kissed. Even though he claimed that he loved Cassie, the memories he had with her were few and far between. Cassie pouted her lips and stared at Oscar angrily. “Oz, do you not remember at all?” Oscar planted a brief kiss on her lips before turning on his charm.

“The past is history. From now on, just remember that I’ll be showering you with kisses every minute and every second.” Disappointment flashed in Cassie’s eyes. “Oz, can you promise to kiss me and only me from now?” she asked as she touched his lips. Oscar moved her hand away. “Has the baby been behaving well today?” he asked gently, changing the subject. Cassie stared at him while her heart began to race. “Why did you change the subject, Oz?” she asked, panic-stricken. “Have you fallen for Amelia? Even after those compromising photos of her, you still refuse to leave her?”

Oscar’s eyes flashed with annoyance. He was starting to lose his patience with Cassie. “Cassie, I took precious time out to be with you, and here you are, interrogating me?” “Oz, I’m not interrogating you.” Cassie snapped. “You used to be so warm and tender towards me. But recently, you’ve been acting hot and cold, and I can’t help but wonder if you still love me. I’m a woman, and it’s only normal that I get worried. I worry that you’re back with Amelia. I know I’ve been badgering you, but I only did it so that you won’t forget me. Is that so wrong?” Oscar lowered his gaze at her. “Cassie, you never used to be this unreasonable.”

Cassie angrily wriggled out of his embrace. “As you said, that was all in the past. The old you pampered me with love. Whenever I had a problem, you’d put everything down and come to my rescue. But now? No matter how much I plead or beg, you still might not show up. How can I not be angry?” she retorted. “The man I love has had a change of heart. If I still don’t do anything to change that, I’d be the biggest idiot in the world!” Oscar stood up suddenly, his face darkened. “Cassie, you’re being emotional right now, so I won’t argue with you. We’ll talk again when you’re feeling better. Have a good rest. I’ll be leaving now.” Cassie ran up to him and hugged him from the back.
