Chapter 404 Too Much Love
“I’m overbearing?” Olivia’s chest tightened in anger. She never knew it would bug her so much to see her son be so protective of his wife. “Oscar, how dare you reprimand me for her sake? Forget it. You’re all grown up now. You won’t listen to me anymore. Take her away and leave Tony behind.”
Oscar shot Olivia, who wasn’t about to give up anytime soon, an exasperated look. “Mom, Tony hasn’t familiarised himself with you. He’s going to cry if he doesn’t see Amelia when he wakes up.”
“We have a lot of maids here. They will know how to calm him down when he cries. Moreover, we’re his grandparents. He will come to terms with us eventually even though it’s been two years,” Olivia said confidently.
Amelia slipped out of Oscar’s embrace. She turned to Olivia and said, “Mom, Tony’s afraid of strangers. He will cry if he doesn’t see us around when he’s in an unfamiliar place. I want to bring him home first. I can send him over again first thing tomorrow.”
“Amelia, you’re planning to leave with Tony without a word again, aren’t you?” Olivia asked warily. “I’m telling you, don’t even think of taking Tony away from us again now that’s he back here with us.”
Amelia gave Oscar an exasperated look.
In the end, they relented. Oscar sent Amelia back to their apartment while Kurt stayed behind in the Clinton residence. He had no reason to stay behind as Amelia’s bodyguard anymore now that she was back together with Oscar.
In the car, Amelia leaned back against the passenger seat and kept quiet on the way back to the apartment.
Oscar reached out and grabbed Amelia’s hand. “Don’t worry, I will send you back to visit Tony first thing tomorrow,” he consoled.
Amelia gave him a look and sighed. “Looks like Mom misunderstood me big time. No matter how mad Mom was, she would never speak so harshly to me. But now, she must be super mad at me. She used to be so kind and gentle but goes into hysterics whenever she sees me now. Oscar, am I that bad?”
Oscar tickled her palm and smiled. “Come on. My wife is better than this. What? You’re not backing out when the war has just begun, are you?”
Amelia burst into laughter upon his words. However, her heart still felt heavy. She couldn’t shake off the fact that she was the cause of Olivia’s change in temperament. Olivia’s change scared her. After all, how could someone that used to be so kind and gentle two years ago turn into such an unreasonable woman? It totally caught her off guard.
“I’m not backing out. It’s just that it scares me to see Mom like that. Was the blow really that devastating for her when I took Tony away?” Amelia licked her lips and said guiltily.
Oscar let go of her hand and caressed her hair. “It’s all in the past now. Don’t think too much of it.”
Amelia smiled in response. She was well aware that the problem would still exist even if one didn’t mention it. Fixing a broken relationship would require a lot of time and effort. Her relationship with Olivia was a broken one.
Back then, she failed to take the Clintons into account when she took Tony away without a word. She had turned into the unreasonable one when she left even though she was right in the first place.
“Oscar, I’m sorry.” Amelia lowered her head and apologized.
Oscar gave her a look as a smile tugged at the corner of his lips. “What are you apologizing for?”
“I insisted on taking Tony away back then. That must have put you in a difficult situation. So I owe you an apology.” Amelia placed her hand on her knee and said.
Oscar patted her head and laughed. “You silly woman!”
Tears welled up in Amelia’s eyes when Oscar drove into the neighborhood. It’s been two years already.
Oscar parked the car, removed his seatbelt, and proceeded to remove Amelia’s seatbelt. “Let’s go.” He smiled.
Amelia grabbed Oscar, who was about to alight the car. She hesitated for a bit and asked, “Oscar, did you and Cassie… No, I mean, did you and Isabella really…”
“No.” Oscar cut her off.
Amelia locked eyes with Oscar as he spoke.
She was mesmerized by those black, unfathomable pools of his. Suddenly, Oscar reached out, grabbed the back of her head, and pulled her toward him. Amelia leaned forward as she bumped her nose against his shoulder. He then took her breath away with a ferocious kiss.
Oscar pushed her seat back and deepened the kiss.
It had been two years since both of them got intimate. Hence, they couldn’t keep their hands off of each other from that moment on.
After some time, their intense lovemaking session finally came to an end.
Oscar covered Amelia up with his coat as she leaned against his chest. Her cheeks were flushed as she panted.
Amelia felt a little embarrassed yet overjoyed as she listened to Oscar’s stable heartbeat. She never thought she would be having sex with Oscar in the car after leaving him for two years.
She also never thought that she would be so open to having sex. However, she relented when Oscar pushed her down and whispered seductively in her ear for permission. She gave in right away. It turned out Amelia wanted Oscar as much as Oscar wanted her.
They were still very sexually compatible after being apart for two years.
Oscar smiled from the bottom of his heart as he caressed her hair.
He felt satisfied after having sex with Amelia. It was something no other woman could provide for him. He realized he finally found the woman worth protecting. No woman could catch his eye, no matter how smart or capable they were.
“Silly woman. You still taste as good as you used to be,” Oscar said.
Amelia punched his chest lightly out of embarrassment.
She felt a little shy when they were doing the deed since it had been two years.
“Oscar, we’re divorced now, so you will have to chase me back once again, or else I won’t get back together with you. Let me be stubborn and coquettish for once,” Amelia said in a low voice.
“Okay, I will pamper you like a true princess. No other men will be able to stand your bad temper once I’ve spoilt you. Then, you will be mine and mine alone.”
“Oscar, you’re such a sweet talker.”
Oscar caressed her sweaty hair fondly and smiled. “Don’t you like it?”
Amelia shook her head and replied, “I like it. Let’s go upstairs. I want to take a bath.”
Oscar dressed her up, fixed her sweaty hair, and alighted the car. He then helped Amelia, whose legs gave way the moment she got down from the car, wrapped his arm around her waist, and carried her up bridal style.
He made his way to the stairs and walked up with Amelia in his arms. The latter circled her arms around his neck, feeling amused. “Oscar, why didn’t you take the elevator?”
“We’ve been apart for two years now, so I want to make up for it.” Oscar lowered his head and kissed her nose. “You’ve lost a lot of weight. I feel like I’m carrying a puppy now. I will be in charge of your food and drinks from today onwards and make sure to fatten you up.”
Amelia smiled sweetly. She was able to ditch all of her problems for the time being after her lovemaking session with Oscar. She even forgot the fact that Tony was left all alone in the Clinton residence, nor did she want to think about how big of a fuss Tony would be making when he woke up. Amelia couldn’t stop fooling herself into wanting to spend more alone time with Oscar.
She yearned to be with Oscar, much more than Oscar ever imagined her to be. She could no longer talk herself into forgetting Oscar after their reconciliation.
