Love You Enough To Leave You Chapter 425
Chapter 425 Just A Reminder
After parting with Faye, Amelia decided to visit Oscar at work, so she hailed a ride and called the man
when she was on her way. It did not take long before her call was answered.
“Hey, are you busy?” asked Amelia with a sweet smile as though nothing Faye said had affected her
mood.
“Not really. Have you had lunch yet?” Oscar’s voice sounded caring and gentle.
“I have. What about you? Don’t you dare forget to take lunch because of work!”
“Yes, ma’am. I’ve already had lunch too.”
“Good. I’ll prepare something delicious for dinner tonight.”
“You have to give me a kiss before I hang up.”
Shyly, Amelia nced at the driver to ensure that he was not looking at her before quietly blowing
Oscar a kiss.
“Still in the honeymoon phase, huh? You’re making me jealous,” teased the driver after Amelia ended
her call.
“He’s a busy man, but he does make time for me.”
“Someone as pretty as you must have a very capable husband.”
“I guess you can say we’refortable financially. He makes enough for us to get by.”
On the way, Amelia had a good time chatting with the driver.
Meanwhile, Oscar smiled to himself as he stared at his phone after the call. Everyone else in the
meeting room was curious to see the man smile. Nheless, they felt much less pressured when they
noticed the man’s change in mood.
Suddenly remembering that he was still in a meeting, Oscar lifted his head to meet the others’ gaze,
causing them to quickly look away.
Oscar then cleared his throat before continuing with the meeting. “Mr. Waltz, your proposal is worth
considering. Just make the necessary adjustments like I told you, and I’ll review it again. Now, if
nobody else has any more questions, that’s it for today.”
The manager addressed quickly wiped off the sweat beading on his forehead before responding to
Oscar, “Yes, Mr. Clinton. I’ll be sure to rectify the mistakes and I promise you won’t be disappointed.”
“I’m sure I won’t be, Mr. Waltz. Hey, take it easy. You’ll do just fine,” encouraged Oscar with a pleasant
smile.
Everyone in the room, including the manager, was surprised to see howid back Oscar was, for the
man had always been highly critical at work. They could not help but wonder who it was on the phone
that had such influence over the man. Whoever that person is, they may have just saved us from a
terrible day.
After the meeting was ended and everyone else left, Isabe approached Oscar. “Was that Mrs.
Clinton, Oscar?” Even though Isabe asked the question casually, she was filled with jealousy on the
inside. Seeing how a single phone call from Amelia was enough to turn Oscar’s mood around, Isabe
envied Amelia’s influence over the man.
Oscar stopped walking and turned around to give Isabe a stern look. “Ms. Walker, we didn’t hire you
to engage in gossip at work. Just because you have my mother’s support doesn’t mean I can’t fire
you.”
Upon hearing that, Isabe had to take a deep breath to calm herself down. “I just didn’t expect you two
to be even closer after being apart for two years. I’m just a little jealous of your rtionship. That’s all,”
exined Isabe with a forced smile.
Without saying anything in response, Oscar simply turned his back on the woman and walked away,
but she would not leave him alone.
Oscar picked up his phone and called his secretary when Isabe followed him into his office. “Linda,
come in here and walk Ms. Walker out.”
After that, Oscar ignored Isabe and proceeded to focus on his work.
“Do you really hate me that much, Oscar?” questioned Isabe as she leaned on the man’s desk.
Before the woman could say anything else, somebody knocked on the door. “Come in,” voiced Oscar.
Linda then entered the room and motioned for Isabe to leave with her. “This way, please, Ms.
Walker.”
“You get out! This is between Oscar and me. You’re nothing but a small-time secretary!” yelled Isabe
while looking daggers at Linda.
In response, the secretary smiled politely at Isabe. “Ms. Walker, please understand that I’m just doing
my job carrying out my boss’ order. If it’s all the same to you, I’d very much appreciate your
cooperation.”
“Do you think that I can’t get you fired?”
Never had Linda met anyone as unreasonable as Isabe. Still, there was nothing she could do to the
woman since she was indeed just a small-time secretary. If Isabe wanted, I believe she’d be more
than capable of getting rid of me.
“Linda, someone like her requires a more personal touch. You’re allowed to remove her by force if
necessary. And don’t worry about your job. There’s nobody in this office who can fire you except me,”
assured Oscar while he continued to go through his documents.
Both Isabe and Linda were stunned by Oscar’s words. Although she was permitted to use force,
Linda would rather not offend Isabe and risk losing her job. Once again, the secretary found herself
caught in the middle.
“Pleasee with me, Ms. Walker. I’m sure you and Mr. Clinton will have plenty of time to talk in
private, so there’s no need for this,” advised Linda before gesturing for Isabe to leave the room
again.
Furious, Isabe red at the secretary before eventually walking away.
The secretary then breathed a sigh of relief before taking her leave. “I’ll leave you to your work, Mr.
Clinton.” When she got out, Isabe was already nowhere to be seen.
“I pity you, Linda. I really do. It must’ve been like hell to be stuck between Mr. Clinton and Ms. Walker
like that. You are obviously the cannon fodder,”mented one of the fellow secretaries.
“It’s all part of the job, I guess. We do whatever we can to help when our boss needs us, no? Hey,
maybe you should give it a try next time,” joked Linda.

“No, thank you. I don’t think I can take that much stress. Mr. Clinton might as well just fire me on the
spot.”
Linda chuckled and shrugged in response to her colleague.
On the other side, Isabe stomped into the elevator and went down to the lobby, where she just so
happened to bump into Amelia.
Still upset because of how Oscar had treated her, Isabe started rushing toward Amelia, who had just
gotten out of the cab.
Amelia could sense Isabe’s hostility toward her when she saw the look on the angry woman’s face.
“What a coincidence, Ms. Walker,” greeted Amelia while her eyes involuntarily nced over Isabe’s
name tag.
Isabe stared coldly at Amelia for a while before questioning, “Why did you have toe back,
Amelia? Oscar and I would’ve gotten engaged if it weren’t for you. Do you have any idea what you’ve
done? You have ruined everything!”
Chuckling, Amelia could not help but be amused when she saw how different Isabe was without the
Clintons around. Isabe sure knows how to put on a good show. I swear she’s the gentlest person
alive when Oscar is around. I wonder if she finds it exhausting to switch between two different
personalities like that.
“Ms. Walker, this ce is my home. The people I love are all here, so why wouldn’t I want toe
back?” inquired Amelia rhetorically, making Isabe seem even more like a desperate fool in
comparison.
Gritting her teeth, Isabe got so angry that she was lost for words.
“Let me remind you that this is your workce, Ms. Walker. You don’t want your colleagues to think that
you’re some kind of madwoman, do you? I know just how fast rumors spread, and I’m sure it won’t take
long before they reach Oscar. So do yourself a favor and behave,” added Amelia.
“Are you threatening me?”
“Oh, I would never do that to you, Ms. Walker. It’s just a friendly reminder. Of course, it’s still up to you
whether you want to embarrass yourself.”
ring at Amelia, Isabe could not believe how bold the woman had be after just two years.
