Chapter 626 Played Like A Fiddle
The next day, Oscar brought Amelia to the City Hall to get remarried. With her marriage certificate in her hands, Amelia was feeling happy and startled at the same time. In fact, she was overwhelmed with mixed feelings.
After exiting the City Hall, Amelia was still unable to regain her composure.
Right then, Oscar wrapped his arm around her waist and smiled. “What’s wrong? Are you too happy?”
Amelia turned around to look at the same old City Hall and couldn’t help but smile. “Over two years ago, we arrived at this City Hall at around the same time in the day to get our divorce certificate. At that time, I was suffering from insomnia, and I thought I’d never see you again in my life. Who would’ve believed this drastic turn of events? In the end, you’re still the man standing right beside me.”
Oscar held her chin and kissed her passionately. When he was done, he looked intently at Amelia, who was in a daze. With a smile, he said, “When you left without saying a word, I’ve gone to extreme lengths to get you back. Doesn’t that mean you’re bound to spend the rest of your life with me?”
Amelia slowly regained her composure and flashed him a half-smile. “Oscar, you’re getting more and more thick-skinned, aren’t you?”
“If not? How would I be able to make you my wife all over again?” Oscar smiled.
Perhaps it was because things were looking good, but Oscar was in a very good mood that day. He kissed Amelia on her lips again and said, “Take some time off, and maybe we should have our honeymoon in Baxrich.”
Amelia leaned on his chin and was amused. “It’s not like it’s our first time getting married. Others are going to make fun of us if we were to have another honeymoon.”
“Why would they? I bet they’re going to be so jealous of me because I’ve landed a beauty once again!” Oscar boasted.
At that moment, Amelia could tell that Oscar was over the moon.
“I’ve already talked to Mom about it, and she’s going to personally plan our wedding ceremony. I want everyone to know that I’m taken!” Oscar said.
“Don’t, Oscar. Since we’ve already done that once, I don’t think we should do it again. Not only is it troubling, but the media is also going to judge us. All I want now is to live a peaceful life, and I have no interest in extravagance anymore. Can you promise me you won’t hold a wedding ceremony?” Amelia raised her gaze toward Oscar and asked with sincerity.
“Are you sure?”
Amelia shook her head in response.
“All right, then. We won’t have a wedding ceremony.”
Hearing that, Amelia broke into a smile. “Let’s head home, shall we? I’ll cook you a nice meal to celebrate our remarriage.”
“Sure!”
Despite being denied a wedding ceremony, Oscar was still in high spirits. When he went to the office the next day, he told three of his bodyguards to bring candies and gifts to the office so that they could distribute them among the employees. Besides, Oscar told them to announce his remarriage to Amelia to everyone in the office. The bodyguards said, “Boss is now a married man, and he’s overjoyed. Hence, he’d like to treat everyone to a dinner at a five-star restaurant after work.”
All the employees were in shock when they received the news. As everyone was talking about it in the office, Isabella soon received the news as well.
When the other employees were discussing it among themselves excitedly, Isabella, who was in disbelief, glared at them and scolded, “What nonsense are you guys talking about?”
Although the other employees were wary of Isabella’s status and identity, they never liked her because she was cocky. As they were happy to hear about Oscar and Amelia’s remarriage, they were also gloating at Isabella’s misfortune.
“Ms. Walker, we were told by Mr. Clinton personally, and he’d even gotten his bodyguards to send us wedding favors and gifts. Besides, we were also told that there will be a fest for us after work. Since we’re all happy to hear about Mr. Clinton’s remarriage, can’t you just be happy for him as well?” one of the female employees plucked up her courage and asked.
Hearing that, Isabella’s expression changed drastically. She then immediately walked away in her high heels. Due to her hurriedness, she’d almost slipped and fell down when she was entering the elevator.
