Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 868

“Don't stay up too late to write your manuscript later. Just continue tomorrow if you can't finish today.”

“Yes, madam! Hurry up and go out. I've got to start typing now. I'll try my best to finish today.”

Amelia was pushed out the door by Tiffany while giggling away.

The next day, Amelia went to meet Olivia with Tony and Tiffany.

The instant they arrived at the private dining room, Olivia quickly took Tony from her and kissed him on the face several times, doting on him endlessly.

“Did you miss me, Tony?”

“Yes. I also miss your baked ribs, Grandma. When I come back from abroad, you must cook it for me,” Tony declared in a juvenile voice.

Olivia's eyes darkened, and her hands tightened around him.

He's my only beloved grandson, but he's going abroad now. Verily, I hate Isabella to the core! If it weren't for her creating all this trouble, my grandson wouldn't need to go abroad. I don't even know when I'll be able to see him again.

Suppressing the unease within her, she inquired, “When are you leaving?”

“We're taking a flight at ten o'clock tomorrow morning,” Amelia replied.

Olivia's brows knitted together, and she murmured reluctantly, “So quickly? Amelia, must you take Tony abroad? If he stays, his grandfather and I can take care of him. I'm afraid he won't recognize me anymore by the time he returns when he's going abroad at such a tender age.”

“I'll have him phone you every day, Mom. Oscar is under Isabella's control right now. If Tony were to stay within the country, none of us could be sure whether she'd incite Oscar to do something to him. For that reason, I find it safer to bring him abroad. Mom, I know you don't want to part with Tony, but Oscar is the one managing Clinton Corporations at present. Although Dad is still the chairman, Oscar's authority is greater. Even you and Dad can't do anything about him, no?”

At that, Olivia sighed dejectedly. “You're right. His father nor I can do anything about him now. We're both old. A single misstep might cause Tony to plunge into irrevocable danger. It's good that you're taking him abroad, but you must protect him well. We'll do our best to have someone keep an eye on Oscar. We're his parents, so he'll still listen to us to a certain extent. Unfortunately, we can't do anything about Isabella for the time being. However, we'll make a move against her one day. Since she dared to dupe Oscar, she should be ready to pay the price.”

“Don't be angry, Mom. Take things slowly. Most importantly, you and Dad must take good care of yourselves. I promise I'll bring Tony back in a year or two. This is my vow. But while I'm away, please take care of Oscar on my behalf,” Amelia remarked.

“Don't worry. Isabella won't dare do anything under my watchful eyes,” Olivia hissed.

She turned her gaze to Tony with reluctance written clear in her eyes. “Actually, Amelia, you don't need to go abroad. There's still the Clinton family backing you up if you stay.”

“Mom, I can't change anything even if I stay. Instead, it'll only intensify Isabella's vigilance. None of us

knows what she might do to Oscar in a panic. My temporary departure will have her relaxing her guard. At the very least, Oscar will be safe. In a year or two, I believe the two of you will be able to more or less pinpoint the problem. At that time, you'll also have found a way to cure him.”

Olivia mulled it over for a moment. Ultimately, she relented.
