Love You Enough To Leave You Chapter 122


    Chapter 122,Love You Enough to Leave You


    Elizabeth’s face contorted in anger. No matter what, Cassie was her daughter. There was no way she’d


    stand and watch Cassie getting hurt. She took a deep breath and tamped down her anger. “Oscar,


    what do you mean by that?” Oscar replied honestly, “I can’t marry Cassie for the time being.” Elizabeth


    scoffed, “Oscar, you’re very honest. But you know that’s not what I want to hear.” Oscar stepped back


    and gave her a deep bow. He straightened his back before exining, “Mrs. Yard, I’m really sorry, but


    Amelia’s pregnant. I can’t let the child end up without a mother.


    Hence, it’s impossible for me to marry Cassie now.” “You mean you want her to be your mistress


    forever?” Elizabeth demanded. Oscar fell silent and nced at her thoughtfully. “Mrs. Yard, we won’t


    reach a consensus. As I said earlier, I hired a designer from Irushea to design Cassie’s wedding dress.


    If she didn’t suffer from a miscarriage, I would’ve proposed when her bump showed. But her


    miscarriage messed things up. Perhaps we aren’t fated to be.” Elizabeth wasn’t as hot-headed as


    before. She inquired calmly, “Oscar, be frank with me. Are you not going to marry Cassie, ever?”


    “Mrs. Yard, I can’t give you my word,” said Oscar. “Let’s just go along with the flow. If Cassie and I end


    up being husband and wife, that will be for the best. If we don’t end up together, I’ll think of her as my


    own sister. As long as Yard Group needs me, I’ll be of help.” Oscar’s promise was important to the


    Yards. He was a famous entrepreneur while Cassie was a talented musician. Even if she joined the


    board of directors, they’d treat her as an outsider. With Oscar’s help, things would be much smoother.


    Still, Elizabeth wanted more for her daughter. Oscar was the perfect candidate to be her son-inw.


    “Oscar, Cassie relies on you a lot. You promised you’ll love her for the rest of your life,” Elizabeth


    remarked.


    “Look, you’ve changed in just a few months. Isn’t that too fast?” Oscar couldn’t help but ask


    himself, Was I the one who changed too fast? Emotions rippled through his heart, but he kept a cool


    front and exined, “Mrs. Yard, it was Cassie who dumped me back then. I can’t give her my word forAll text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.


    now. But when something happens to her, I’ll be by her side.” He’s right, thought Elizabeth. Oscar isn’t


    Cassie’s only lover. She got pregnant with another man’s child. She might’ve lost that child, but that


    doesn’t change the fact that she had other lovers in the past. Elizabeth might be protective of her


    daughter, but she was a reasonable woman. She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth and


    received strict upbringing.


    Previously, she lost her cool because of her daughter, but that didn’t mean she was an irrational


    woman. She knew Cassie had indulged in some capers, so even though she was tempted to defend


    her daughter till the end, she couldn’t bring herself to put Oscar in a difficult position. Sighing, Elizabeth


    caved in. “I’ve thought about it. I’m not that unreasonable. Since you say everything’s up to fate, then I


    won’t force you.” She added, “But Cassie relies on you heavily. She’s weak after losing her baby. If


    you’re a man, you won’t choose to hurt her now.”


    Oscar shot a puzzled look at Elizabeth. “Mrs. Yard, you changed your mind quickly.” Elizabeth knew


    what he was trying to say. “Oscar, please don’t be mad at my rude actions earlier. I feel bad for Cassie.


    Everyone adored her since she was young, so she had never suffered in her life. The doctor said she


    might not be able to get pregnant in the future. I was so mad and wanted to beat you up,” she rified.


    “Now that she’s awake and revealed that it was her own fault, I can’t insist on pinning the me on


    you.” Oscar listened to her exnation silently. Elizabeth implored, “Oscar, please do me a favor. No


    matter what happens, I hope you won’t hurt Cassie. She loves you dearly.” Oscar nodded.


    “Don’t worry, Mrs. Yard. I won’t hurt her. She was my first love. There will always be a spot for her in my


    heart. She’ll always be special to me.” Elizabeth let out a sigh of relief. “Oscar, you’re an adult. I believe


    you’re sincere. Remember, don’t hurt her,” she repeated. Oscar nodded without a word. Patting his


    shoulder, Elizabeth told him, “Let’s go back. Otherwise, Cassie might overthink things.” They returned


    to the ward shortly after. Cassie, who was fidgeting nervously, rxed visibly at the sight of Oscar.


    “Mom, Oz, what took you so long? I was so worried. I nearly went out in search of you,” Cassie whined


    and pouted unhappily.


    Elizabeth shot her an exasperated look. “Why? Are you afraid I’ll tear him to pieces?” Flushing beet


    red, Cassie replied softly, “Mom, stop talking nonsense. That was not what I meant.” Elizabeth poked


    her forehead and chided, “I know you well, my dear.” At 11 p.m., Cassie told her mother, “Mom, it’ste.


    You should go home. Oz will take care of me here. You don’t want to keep Dad waiting at home, do


    you?” Elizabeth nearly choked on her words. Cassie isn’t even married to Oscar, but she’s already


    siding with him. When they get married, will she forget toe home to us?


    “Cassie, where are your manners? You aren’t even married to him yet. Look at how desperate you are.


    Don’t you feel ashamed?” Elizabeth remarked in frustration. As her cheeks turned a crimson red,


    Cassie whined, “Mom, Oz and I will marry sooner orter. There’s nothing wrong about him taking care


    of me!” Swiftly, Elizabeth packed her things up and told Oscar, “Look, I’m third-wheeling here. Take


    care of her, Oscar. I’lle to take your ce tomorrow.” Oscar nned to head back home. After


    hearing their words, he had no choice but to agree to stay for the night.


    Elizabeth reminded her daughter. “Cassie, have a good rest. Don’t bother Oscar. He needs to take care


    of you and work. I believe he must be exhausted.” Cassie nodded obediently. After Elizabeth left,


    Cassie patted her bed and extended an invitation. “Oz,e join me in bed.” Oscar pulled the covers


    up and kissed her forehead. “No worries. I will spend the night on the sofa.” Pouting unhappily, Cassie


    demanded, “Oz, the bed is big enough for the two of us. Why won’t you join me?” Oscar exined


    patiently, “You’re still weak from the miscarriage.


    If I join you in bed, I might not hold back seeing how gorgeous you are. I don’t want to hurt you.” Cassie


    turned scarlet and harrumphed shyly. “What were you thinking? I want you to sleep well, that’s all.


    You’re so mean!” Too caught up in her feelings, Cassie didn’t see the indifference in Oscar’s gaze.


    Gently, Oscar helped her down and tucked her in. “It’ste. You should go to bed.” Taking his hand,


    Cassie uttered shyly, “Oz, I feel like the luckiest person in the world to be with you. I wish I can be by


    your side forever. What do you think?” Oscar patted her head and avoided her question deftly.


    “I don’t want to be with someone who is sick. If you want to be with me, get well soon.” Cassie shed


    a grin. “I will, as long as you don’t leave my side.” She patted her bed again and implored, “Oz,e


    join me in bed. I know you’re a gentleman. Otherwise, you would’ve fallen for my seduction previously.”


    Pulling a chair to the bed, Oscar sat down before answering, “Go to bed. If I join you in bed, I don’t


    think you will be able to sleep well.” The light in Cassie’s eyes dimmed as she uttered in


    disappointment. “Oz, I lost the child. Do you still me me for that?”


    Oscar ruffled her hair tofort her. “Nonsense. Did I ever me you for that? It wasn’t your fault.


    Besides, we’re still young. We can have childrenter on.” Cassie pressed on. “You don’t seem upset


    at all, Oz. You don’t care that I’ve lost my child, right?” Oscar’s expression darkened. “Cassie, I’m upset


    at the loss of the child, too. I’m too proud to show my misery to you. I can’t believe you misunderstood


    me that easily.” Cassie panicked immediately. “Oz, I was afraid you’ll me me for the incident. I spent


    all day in the hospital, but you didn’t even reprimand me. To be honest, I felt distressed and guilty,” she


    revealed while clutching his hands desperately.


    “I was scared that you might me me for the miscarriage. Also, it seemed like you didn’t look forward


    to the arrival of our child as you weren’t upset at all.” Oscar tucked her in again and reassured her.


    “Stop overthinking things. I’m heartbroken over the loss of our child, too. We have a long journey ahead


    of us. In the future, we will have our own kids.” “What if we can’t have any?” “Stop overthinking things.”


    “Oz, I’m serious. Mom told me that this miscarriage has affected my uterus. It will be hard for me to get


    pregnant in the future. If I’m infertile, will you still marry me?”


    Instead of answering her question, Oscar said, “I’ll marry my soulmate, not a birthing machine. There’s


    no need for you to bear my child as I can get one elsewhere.” Cassie gazed at him adoringly. “But I


    want a child of our own, Oz. I don’t want outsiders to join our family. The children are adorable, but they


    aren’t ours. I can’t ept nor like them.” Something dark suddenly flickered in Oscar’s eyes. Cassie


    grabbed his palm and ced it on her cheek. She made an unreasonable demand. “Oz, if I can’t bear


    any children, can you not bring other children that you bore with other women into our household?”


    Immediately, Oscar retracted his hand.
