Chapter 590 Get Lost
When they got home, Oscar grabbed some ice cubes from the freezer, wrapped them in a towel, squatted in front of Amelia, and said gently, “Hang in there. This might be a little icy.”
Lowering her head to observe how delicate he was with her, Amelia mumbled, “All right.”
“Is this okay?” he asked as he applied the cold pack to her legs.
“It’s quite nice.”
Oscar remained silent and focused on helping her with the ice compression.
He gently placed her legs on the couch when he was done and said, “Don’t move. I’ll prepare some pasta for you. You must be hungry after working for so long.”
She reached out and grabbed his hand.
Oscar turned to face her before asking, “What’s wrong? Does it hurt?”
She shook her head. “I’m so sorry for causing you trouble.”
He caressed her cheeks and whispered, “I’ll handle June on my own, but where is Jolin? I asked her to keep you safe.”
“I told her to fetch Tony for me. It’s not her fault.”
“Don’t worry about that. I know.”
After comforting her, Oscar headed straight into the kitchen.
Amelia sighed as she examined her swollen feet.
Why is everyone attempting to get in the way of Oscar and me?
Oscar made two plates of spaghetti, and the duo ate without saying anything. He walked over after cleaning the dishes. Then, he squatted in front of her and placed his hand on her head.
“Stop overthinking.”
“Oscar, sit with me and talk to me,” she said, pulling his hands.
Oscar did as she requested, cautiously wrapping his arm around her and whispering, “What do you want to tell me?”
She was lying on his chest when she suddenly chuckled.
“I was disgusted when June tried to kiss me, and I told myself that I would kick his balls if he dared to kiss me. Thank goodness you arrived just in time, or else he would have lost his ability to breed.” Amelia put on a calm front.
As soon as her words fell, Oscar’s expression instantly lit up.
“I’m not sure what I should do with you, cheeky girl. If you’re less opinionated, I wouldn’t be so worried that you would be taken away from me.” He tapped her nose affectionately.
“But that wouldn’t be me anymore, right?”
Oscar only smiled in response.
He carried her upstairs and showered her personally. Then, he wrapped her up tightly like a precious gem and carefully placed her on the bed before applying medication to her wounds.
“Does it still hurt?”
“It’s much better now. Only you are overly concerned about it. I’ll be able to return to work tomorrow.”
“You don’t have to force yourself, you know?”
“I know.”
“Go to sleep then.”
“I haven’t seen Tony yet. Jolin must be beside him now. Can you take me to see him?”
Without a word, Oscar carried her to the other room. Amelia smiled when she saw Tony sleeping soundly on the bed. “Let’s go back.”
He carried her back to their room again.
After ensuring Amelia was sleeping soundly, Oscar exited the room, and Jolin was already waiting for him outside.
“Boss,” Jolin greeted him.
“Follow me to the study.”
Jolin silently followed him from behind.
The moment they entered the room, Jolin was smacked across the face, but she didn’t dare to scream.
“Do you know why I hit you?” Oscar asked coldly.
“I was absent during Ms. Amelia’s working time,” Jolin responded cautiously.
“Why did you leave her? What did I say when I asked you to protect her?” Oscar’s tone became much harsher.
