Chapter 709
Oscar had juste out of the bathroom after taking a shower when he heard the sound of the
doorbell ringing. He thought Amelia Winters was back, so he did not ask and went to open the door.
However, when he saw the person standing outside, his expression instantly darkened.
“Why are you here?” he asked in a cold and distant tone.
“I came to look for Amy, Oscar. Is she here? I want to speak to her about Mom,” Amelia Hutton said
with a smile.
“She went to the hospital. Didn''t you meet her there?”
“I just went downtown to buy some nutritional supplements for Mom and thought it was not far from the
hotel you were staying at, so I came over. I didn''t expect that she had already gone to the hospital. Can
Ie in and have a ss of water? I''m a little thirsty.” She raised her eyes with anticipation while
saying pitifully.
“I have no water here. You can go downstairs and buy a bottle. If there isn''t anything else, you may
leave.” Oscar bluntly asked her to leave.
Amelia Hutton''s eyes turned slightly red as she asked, “Do you despise me, Oscar? Did I do something
that made you misunderstand me? I can change.”
“I don''t despise you. I just don''t like any woman other than Amelia trying to get close to me. If you
weren''t her sister, I don''t think you could stand in front of me and talk to me right now,” he replied with a
frosty look.
Amelia Hutton bit her lip and looked at him, her eyes shing with unspeakable madness. Coming to a
decision, she suddenly rushed up to hug Oscar. However, to her surprise, due to her sudden
movement, coupled with the fact that Oscar had seen thating and turned sideways, she fell right
onto the floor.
Oscar looked down at the woman who had made a fool of herself and articted each word clearly, “If
you are so short of men, Amelia Hutton, there are many unmarried men working under me. How about
I give you three?”
Amelia Hutton felt her cheeks burning up. At that moment, his harsh words embarrassed her to no end.
She awkwardly got up from the floor and said with reddened eyes, “What exactly is so unlikeable about
me? I''m so much like Amy. If you can love her, why can''t you share some of your love for her with me?
As long as I can have a little ce in your heart, I''m willing to be with you even if I can''t marry you.
Since the second time I saw you, I feel that you are a man with whom I could entrust my entire life. I''ve
truly fallen in love with you. Could you not treat me so coldly?”
If it were any other man, the sight of such a pitiful woman pouring out words of passion would have
instantly melted his heart. Unfortunately, the man before her was Oscar, so she was bound to face a
heartless rejection.
Since she was making a fool of herself, she should not expect others to show respect for her.
“Get lost!” Oscar spat coldly.
However, the woman still refused to give up. I finally got a chance to be alone with Oscar. If I give up
this time, there may not be such a golden opportunity in the future.
She wanted to rush up and hug Oscar, but she did not expect to receive a tight p from him, leaving
her dazed.
“Get out. Don''t make me think you''ve stooped this low. No one would be in the mood to seduce their
brother-inw when their mother is critically ill. You''re the most shameless person I''ve ever met. Don''t
bring shame upon your face that resembles Amelia''s. I don''t want to loathe you.” Oscar then continued
coldly, ”You should be d that you resemble her. Otherwise, as a punishment for trying to seduce me,
you would''ve been running naked on the streets for countless men to see by now, and you would make
the headlines tomorrow.”
Amelia Hutton subconsciously shuddered upon hearing that.
“Get out!”
Despite his words, she remained where she was, still feeling extremely reluctant to leave just like that.
Seeing that, Oscar took his phone and made a call. When it got through, he instructed, “Walter,e
in and take Ms. Hutton away.”
“If you call someone over, Oscar, I''ll say you called and invited me over to do something unspeakable
to me.” Amelia decided to go all out and unbuttoned her shirt.
He simply looked at her icily.
“If you want others to know that a rich youngdy like yourself ran to the hotel that her brother-inw
was at only to make a fool of herself, you can just take your clothes off,” Oscar said nonchntly.
Amelia Hutton bit her lip and said indignantly, “Aren''t you afraid I''ll sue you for trying to defile me?”
“You''re already so shameless. What''s there for me to fear? If you''re not afraid that your mom''s
condition will worsen after knowing what you''ve done, you can make it known to the world. I, Oscar
Clinton, have never been afraid of anyone,” he remarked.
Despite her reluctance, Amelia Hutton knew very well that if this matter had leaked out, nothing good
woulde to her, especially if her mother did not make a recovery. If something untoward happened
to Mom because of me, I''m afraid Dad would be the first person toe at me. By then, I''ll have no
way of defending myself, not to mention that I did intend to seduce him in the first ce.
“Boss.” A handsome and slender man, Walter Ward, came in and called out respectfully.
“See her out, and if any random woman wishes toe near me in the future, you guys can just throw
her out,” Oscar said ruthlessly.
“Understood, Boss.” Walter approached Amelia Hutton and gestured to her as he said politely, “This
way, Ms. Hutton.”
She had long since tidied her clothes. She parted her lips as she looked at Oscar but could only
reluctantly leave the suite in the end.
Oscar immediately shut the door, his expression turning a little grim.
Walter returned around ten minutester.
“Has she left?” Oscar inquired.
“Yes, Boss. I''ve sent her away. Shall I teach her a lesson?”
“Not for now. Don''t tell Amelia about this. I don''t want her to be bothered with some trivial things that
don''t matter.”
“Yes, Boss.”
“You may leave now.”
Walter nodded and quietly left the suite.
Oscar took a bottle of wine from the wine cab, poured himself a ss, and slowly sipped it.
He intended to teach Amelia Hutton a lesson for her seduction earlier on. However, in the end, as he
looked at her face, which looked very simr to Amelia Winter''s, he dismissed those thoughts. After all,
Mrs. Hutton is still sick, so if anything happened to Amelia Hutton, it''d worry Mrs. Hutton, and that may
aggravate her condition. By then, Amelia Winters will be the one feeling anguished.
In just ten seconds or so, he thought through all the oues, and because of that, he spared Amelia
Hutton this time. Otherwise, she could never have left so easily.
Oscar stood by the window, swirling the wine in the winess. His narrowed eyes had a hint of malice
burning from within.
Amelia Hutton was unaware that her act of seduction in the suite earlier on had almost cost her her life.
She would never know that besides having a strong family background, Oscar was crueler than other
men.
She slumped into the car seat despondently with a nk stare. No one knew what she was thinking
about.
“We''ve reached the hospital, miss,” the driver said as he stopped the car.

Only then did Amelia Hutton return to her senses. After looking out of the window, she took out a
hundred from her bag and passed it to the driver. “Keep the change,” she uttered petntly before
pushing the car door open and exiting the car.
She then took the elevator upstairs, and upon entering the ward, she saw Amelia Winters telling a joke
to Eleanor. Although Benjamin looked a little impatient, he still waited beside them quietly. As for Sean,
he was smiling gently at the side. The scene made it seem as though they were a family of four, and
she was the one excluded.
My father and brother were on my side previously, but now they''ve all switched sides and
acknowledged Amelia. Not only did you steal my mother, Amelia Winters, but now you want to win over
my father and brother? Do you want to render me helpless and alone? Don''t even think about it.
Amelia Hutton attributed all the anger she had endured from Oscar to Amelia Winters. She felt that if it
had not been for thetter, she would not have been in such a wretched state.
“Mom, you''re awake.” Sheposed herself and walked over docilely.
Eleanor lifted her head with a smile. “Where did you go, Amelia?”
“I went out for a walk. Are you all right, Mom? Does your head still hurt?” Amelia Hutton asked in
concern.
“I''m fine. Don''t worry about me.” Eleanor looked extremely pale, but her smile was quite sincere. “I''m
already very satisfied with you three siblings around me. I still have to wait for you and your brother to
get married, and I look forward to looking after all your children and enjoying our happy family times.
So, I''ll stay strong before my wishes true.”
Despite the smile on her face, Amelia Hutton snickered inwardly. She knew that Eleanor only had
Amelia Winters on her mind at present, so Eleanor would not be concerned with her and Sean''s
marriages.
“What''s wrong with you, Amelia? You don''t seem your normal self.” Eleanor looked at her, feeling
worried. “Are you too tired from constantlying to the hospital? Why don''t you go back and rest
first? Don''t tire yourself out.”
“I''m fine, Mom.” Amelia Hutton sat down and continued, “Mom, it''s been a few days since Amy came to
Saspiuburg. Her work and family are all in Tayhaven, so she can''t keep staying here and taking care of
you. Why don''t you let her and Oscar head back first? After all, this is the Hutton family''s matter.”
“What are you saying? Lia is also a member of our Hutton family, and I finally got her toe to
Saspiuburg to see me. Are you so eager for her to go back?” Eleanor said angrily.
Amelia Hutton was fuming deep down, but she swallowed her words upon looking at her mother''s pale
face.
“That''s not what I meant, Mom. I''m just afraid that Amy''s inws will have a problem with her staying in
Saspiuburg for too long. Don''t forget that she''s a married woman. Even if the Hutton family is her
family, it''s inappropriate of her to stay here with us for too long,” she reasoned.
Eleanor was dumbstruck.
Amelia Winters nced at her sister before saying with a smile, “I''ve already exined everything to
my mother-inw, Mom. She''s very understanding and knows that you''ve not fully recovered, so she
allowed me to stay here to take care of you. As for thepany, my father-inw is overseeing it. Even
if Oscar is away for a month, there wouldn''t be any problems, so don''t worry.”
Eleanor was relieved, as she subconsciously relied on Amelia Winters very much.
“You''re saying the truth, right, Lia?”
Amelia Winters nodded.
Seeing her response, Eleanor smiled. “It''s good that you''re apanying me for a few more days, Lia.
I''m reluctant to part with you.”
“Don''t worry about it, Mom. All of us are very worried about you. We''ll be at ease as long as you''re
fine.”
Eleanor''s mood lifted after she heard that.
Even since Eleanor was hospitalized, Amelia Winters had been paying extra attention to the former''s
diet and tried to make some nutritious food to help the former recover. Although that did not help much,
she still wanted Eleanor to eat well and live afortable life.
Amelia Hutton and Sean could never be as meticulous as her. As for Benjamin, despite keeping silent
most of the time, he had witnessed everything she had done for Eleanor.
With that, he finally began to see Amelia Winters in a new light. He followed her out when she went to
fetch some water.
“Do you need something, Mr. Hutton?” she asked.
Even after being acknowledged by Benjamin, Amelia Winters still did not call him “Dad.”
Benjamin gazed at her with a conflicted look. His lips twitched as he uttered with difficulty, “Do you hate
us, Amelia?”
Amelia froze momentarily before replying with a carefree smile, “I''d be lying if I denied it. However,
perhaps because I''ve never lived with you all, so the hatred isn''t as intense as I''d imagined. Even after
learning that you''re my father, I still don''t have much affection for you and only regard you as a
somewhat familiar stranger. So there is still love and hate, only much milder.”
A glint shed across Benjamin''s hazy eyes when he heard that. He did not expect Amelia to be so
open-minded in certain matters.
Her frankness made him think that his persistence over the past twenty years seemed so ridiculous. I
can''t believe I can''t be as open-minded as someone much younger than me.
“Mr. Hutton, you didn''te to me just to tell me this, did you?” Amelia cocked her head to the side
and looked at Benjamin curiously. She could not figure out the reason behind the sudden change in his
attitude.
“Thank you,” Benjamin suddenly uttered.
