Love You Enough To Leave You Chapter 130


    Chapter 130,Love You Enough to Leave You


    Oscar turned the steering wheel in the hospital’s direction. “I’m letting you visit him, but no flirting. If he


    makes a move on you, I have my ways of making him stop once and for all.” Amelia rolled her eyes.


    “There won’t be a need to. Like I said, we’re just friends. If anything was possible between us, it


    would’ve happened ages ago.” “So what if you have known him for a long time? You’re my wife now.”


    “Mr. Clinton, do I smell jealousy?” Oscar did not respond. He had turned his attention back on the road.


    Although she found joy in teasing him, Amelia knew not to take it any further.


    She stopped talking and slept through the rest of the ride. Very soon, they arrived back at the hospital.


    Amelia unbuckled her seat belt before suggesting, “Mr. Clinton, it’s prettyte now. Why not you go


    grab lunch first? I’ll meet you backter.” There was no response. The next moment, he got out of the


    car purposefully. She was slightly taken aback by his behavior, but exited the car as well. Outside,


    Oscar had both his hands in his pocket. “Let’s go.” “Mr. Clinton, perhaps if you’re hungry you could…”


    “Hurry up. Mr. Scott is someone I respect. Now that his grandson is awake, it’s only basic courtesy to


    pay him a visit.” That makes sense. Amelia trailed behind him at a distance.


    Oscar turned and grabbed her by the waist. “Walk with me.” Outside the ward, he knocked on the door.


    Jennifer was surprised by his appearance, but she kept her expression neutral. “Come on in.” Before


    they entered, Amelia whispered, “Mr. Clinton, you can let go of me now. Many people, including Mr.


    Scott, are inside. It’s embarrassing to appear in this manner.” Unsurprisingly, her words fell on deaf


    ears. His grip only tightened further. “Let’s go in.” She was helpless against his stubborn personality, so


    she allowed him to lead her into the ward. Carter, who had beenying lethargically on the hospital


    bed, brightened up upon seeing Amelia. Just as quickly, his expression darkened when he saw Oscar’s


    hand on her.

    Despite so, he could not contain his excitement. “Amelia, you’re here!” Both Oscar and Amelia


    approached him. “Hey Carter, Ms. Larson told me you were awake, so Oscar and I thought to drop by


    and visit you.” Carter gazed at her tenderly. “Amelia, you visited me while I was still unconscious, didn’t


    you? I remember you said that if I wake up, I’ll get a chance to pursue you again. Can I hold your word


    for it?” Clearly, he had crossed the line. The atmosphere in the ward turned awkward. Abel coughed a


    few times to remind him. “Carter, you’ve just regained consciousness. The doctor instructed you to get


    plenty of rest. Why not take a nap after you finish your meal?” “Granddad, I feel ok.”


    He faced Amelia while repeating once more, “Amelia, that chance you mention, it’s real. Isn’t it?”


    Amelia was put on a spot. Those words were just her half-hearted attempt to encourage Carter to wake


    up. Never in her wildest dream did she expect him to hear it. She could only curse herself for her plight.


    Meanwhile, Carter’s words triggered the possessiveness within Oscar. He tightened his grip on her.


    “Mr. Carter, I understand your infatuation with my wife. After all, she is a very charmingdy with a long


    line of suitors. Regretfully for everyone else, our rtionship’s going strong, and will be expecting a


    child soon.


    It’s high time you give up.” Carter retorted, “Amelia has given me permission to be her child’s godfather.


    I’ll treat him or her like my flesh and blood. Don’t worry, my bond with Amelia will only grow stronger.”


    His words were undoubtedly a direct confrontation with him. Abel frowned. Meanwhile, Mrs. Scott went


    by her son’s side to diffuse the tension. “Carter, you’ve just regained your consciousness, so your mind


    is probably confused. Let’s save the jokes for ater day. You need to rest.” Carter understood not to


    go any further. “Mom, I’m fine. It’s just been a long time since Ist saw Amelia, so I can’t resist the


    urge to speak more with her.” The next moment, Oscar started, “Seeing how Mr. Carter is being all


    lively, he’s probably recovering really well.


    Looks like Amelia can set her heart at ease now.” He gazed towards her, voice gentle, “Honey, am I


    right?” Amelia nodded her head helplessly. Oscar and Carter had always been at loggerheads with


    each other, so she tried to divert their attention. “Carter, take care of yourself. You won’t me us for


    not bringing any fruit baskets, right? We kinda came here in a hurry.” Carter chuckled lightly. “Of course


    not! There’s plenty of fruits here: bananas, grapes, apples… Which do you want? I’ll peel it for you.”


    Amelia smiled awkwardly, trying her best to avoid his passionate gaze. “I haven’t had lunch so I’ll pass


    on the fruits.” “What! Look at howte it is now. You haven’t had lunch?”


    Carter’s sudden outburst caused him to pull on his injury. He cried out in pain. This got Jennifer and


    Mrs. Scott worried. “Carter, remember what the doctor said? You can’t get too agitated.” He took a few


    deep breaths while waiting for the pain to subside. “Mom, I know.” Subconsciously, he retracted his


    hands away from Jennifer. Although his behavior hurt thetter, her proud disposition kept her from


    revealing her emotions. She remained indifferent on the outside. Carter added, “Amelia, go and have


    your lunch. You’re eating for two now. You won’t want the baby to go hungry.”


    “We shall take up your offer then. I’ll take Amelia to eat now. She won’t have to miss lunch had she not


    been so worried about you, as a friend.” Oscar’s tone was oozing with sarcasm. “Go ahead Amelia. I’ll


    pay you a visit once I’m discharged from the hospital. If it weren’t for your encouraging words, I would


    never have woken up. Simply put, you’re my savior.” Amelia shook her head. “Carter, please don’t


    credit me for this. You were already doing fine. Besides, this is a reputable hospital. Under their care,


    you would’ve woken up eventually.” Oscar had enough of Carter’s advances. He situated himself in


    front of Amelia to block thetter’s view of her. Then, he turned to Abel. “Mr. Scott, I’m pretty sure all of


    you have a lot of catching up to do.


    We shall take our leave now.” Abel chuckled. “All right. Also, don’t take Carter’s words to heart. He’s


    just woken up, so he made a lot of careless remarks.” “Don’t worry about it. I understand why he would


    act this way. As expected of my beautiful and kind wife. I’m d he knows to appreciate her as well.”


    With that, Oscar bade the rest of them farewell. Right before they exited, he turned and gave a final


    piece of advice. “Mr. Carter, instead of having a one-track mind, it’s best to broaden your view. You’ll


    find that there are plenty of options avable. For instance, Ms. Larson here seems to be a good match


    for you. Give others a chance. Who knows, you might end up in a blissful rtionship too.”


    With that, both Oscar and Amelia left the ward. Evidently, the atmosphere in the ward had turned sour.


    Abel turned to the rest of the members. “Now that Carter’s awake, you all can go back and rest now. I


    have some private matters to discuss with him.” Mrs. Scott responded on their behalf. “Dad, we’ll leave


    first then. I’ll get the housemaid to prepare some food for Carter ande by againter.” Abel


    nodded. Mrs. Scott tugged on Jennifer, but thetter had no intention of moving. “Mrs. Scott, Carter just


    woke up. I wish to spend more time with him. I’ll leave on my ownter.” “Jennifer, I appreciate your


    care these past few days. I’m pretty sure you’re tired as well. Go back home and have a good rest.”


    After facing multiply rejections, Jennifer could no longer mask the hurt in her voice. “Carter, do you hate


    me this much?” Before he could respond, Mrs. Scott intercepted. She wrapped her hands around


    Jennifer’s to cate her. “Jennifer, I’m sure Carter’s just worried you’ll overwork yourself. C’mon, let’s


    go home together. I’ll make tons of delicious food for you. There’s plenty of time in future to spend with


    him.” Her words worked. Jennifer felt slightly better. They exited the ward, leaving Abel and Carter


    alone. Without sugar-coating his words, Abel chided, “Carter, what you said just now was


    uneptable.


    Even I would think twice before provoking Oscar. Yet, you flirted with Amelia right in front of him. Is she


    that important to you?” “Granddad, my feelings for Amelia have long passed the point of return. While I


    was unconscious, I could still vaguely hear the voices around me. Besides you and the rest of the


    family, Amelia’s words pulled me through this. She said she’ll give me a chance to make up for not


    helping her back then. This time, I’m determined to protect her.” Abel sighed in resignation. “Is this


    retribution? If I’d known you would be this infatuated with her, I shouldn’t have chased her away.


    Otherwise, you would’ve been happily married to her. Perhaps, I could even be holding my own


    grandchild now.” Carter shut his eyes as he attempted to cate the surge of emotions welling up


    within him. “Granddad, it’s true that for a long time, I have hated you, Mom, and Dad. But, I’ve learned


    to forgive.


    It’s just, at times, I can’t help but wonder whether what happened between me and Amelia was


    because of your doings or my cowardice and weakness. Perhaps, it’s abination of both. If I had


    been stronger and more mature, things would have turned out differently.” “Carter, you’ve grown into a


    fine man now. Romance is just a small part of your life. Why let it affect you so much?”
