“If you don’t have any objections to this contract, just sign it. When you sign the divorce contract next week, they will truly belong to you,” explained Oscar.
Amelia placed the contract down and smiled. “You’re so generous, Mr. Clinton. Being your wife is quite a happy thing. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely sign the divorce contract next week.”
“That’s good,” replied Oscar.
Amelia grinned brightly. “Thank you, Mr. Clinton.”
“I still have a meeting later, so I can’t eat with you. Here’s a card. Just get whatever you want to eat,” said Oscar as he fished out a card.
Amelia stood up, grabbed the card, and laughed heartily. “I’ll take my leave then. Are you coming back for dinner? I’ll tell Molly to prepare some food that you like.”
“I have a business meeting at night.”
She understood and said, “Okay. I shall leave now.”
With that, she strode out of the office confidently in her high heels.
Oscar, who was sitting on the couch, stared at Amelia with a complex gaze. Even after the door closed, he did not avert his gaze as if he was deep in thought.
Amelia left the office. Although everyone was glancing at her gloatingly, she left Clinton Corporations without even flinching.
It was only after she sat in her car that her facade of strength disappeared. She rested her head against the steering wheel and sobbed.
After five minutes, she wiped her tears away resentfully and said through gritted teeth, “Oscar, even though all you’ve given me are falsity and insincere affection, I can still lie to myself that you love me.”
