Chapter 466Chapter 466
Oscar ignored the people in the living room when he got home and placed a kiss on Amelia's lips when
she opened the door for him. He then pushed his tongue past her teeth and deepened the kiss.
She couldn't help but get immersed in the kiss and subconsciously let out a moan in the process.
Envy and jealousy flashed across Rory's eyes as she and the others in the living room watched them
kiss. Eva, on the other hand, started clapping excitedly and whistled at them. “Woohoo! You're so cool,
Oscar! Go on, press Amelia against the wall and give her an even more passionate kiss. I don't mind it
even if you were to do the deed right now. I can record everything and post it online to get some
money. With a handsome man and a beautiful woman like you guys, I'm sure I'll be able to earn a lot.
What's more, you're even the heir of Clinton Corporations.”
Everyone turned to look at her, but she was still utterly entertained by her cousin, totally unaware of
their gazes.
Amelia finally snapped out of it and quickly pushed Oscar away. Her face was flushed red as she
reached up to tidy her hair that wasn't even messy. Avoiding the man's gaze, she then said, “We have
guests.” Once she was done speaking, she walked over to Eva and the others.
Unfortunately, her cousin was such a dense person that she didn't notice how awkward things had
become. “Your face is so red, Amelia. But you look better with your face like that. I think you look much
prettier than the celebrities on TV. Oh, no. What should I do? I'm so captivated by you.”
Amelia could feel her face burn with embarrassment. Ugh, Eva. You just had to rub salt on my wound.I'm already in my thirties. How could I kiss Oscar in front of so many people? How embarrassing.
She wanted to find a hole and bury herself.
Tony chimed in suddenly, “You look the best with your cheeks red, Mommy. You look like a pretty fairy.”
The woman's face reddened further when she heard that.
Taking in a deep breath, she forced herself to calm down as she looked up at everyone in the living
room. “I'm going to see if the water has boiled.”
“Is your mind still on the kiss, Amelia? You're not boiling any water in there,” Eva reminded with a
laugh. Amelia's just too cute blushing like that. It makes me want to tease her even more.
The former took a sideways glance at her, the blush on her face finally fading a little.
“Please wait a moment. I'll bring you guys some tea,” she said graciously.
After Amelia left for the kitchen, Eva turned to Oscar and said, “You were so cool, Oscar. I can't believe
you kissed her in front of so many people. You really couldn't resist the temptation, huh?”
Hearing that, the man's lips tilted upward into a smile as he said, “Watch and learn. You might be able
to use it someday.”
“Of course. You might even have to teach me a few tricks next time.”
Oscar didn't respond to that. Instead, he took a seat on the couch and turned to Julian. “When did you come, Julian?” he asked.
“Not too long ago. Amelia has been home for quite some time now, so I should at least come to see the
little one. Otherwise, he wouldn't have known that I exist.”
“Enough with that nonsense. There's no need for the pleasantries between us. Amelia spent quite
some time and effort looking for you. She just told me that she wanted to treat you to some
homecooked food yesterday, but here you are, showing up uninvited.”
“Really?”
“There's no need for me to lie to you.”
Julian smiled upon hearing that.
A moment later, Molly returned from getting groceries. He quickly went up to help her. Taking the bags
of groceries from her hands, he said sweetly, “It's been a long time since we last met, Molly. I've missed
you.”
She smiled endearingly at him as she said, “You seem to have gotten more handsome over the past
few years, Mr. Hayes. I almost couldn't recognize you. Do you have a girlfriend yet? Mr. Clinton has
already gotten married and has a child now. You should hurry up too. You shouldn't lose to him.”
“Oscar has had his life planned out since he was young, Molly. He made plans on when he should
finish his studies and when to take his career to the next level. All of us thought that he would be thelast to get married. Who would have thought that not only does he have a wife, but he even has a son
now? He's already accomplished so much when he's only thirty years old. None of us can ever be
compared to him, Molly,” Julian replied nonchalantly.
Hearing that, Molly smiled from ear to ear as if someone had just praised her son.
“It's been years but it seems like you're still good with your words. I'll make sure to cook the best dishes
for you since you're here. If I remember correctly, you love eating grilled prawns, don't you?”
A blissful expression surfaced on Julian's face as though the plate of grilled prawns were already in
front of him.
“Your grilled prawns are the best. I'm already drooling at the thought of them!”
The older woman giggled at his response. Then, giving him a pat on his arm, she said, “It seems like
you still love joking around. You should hurry up and find a girlfriend so she can joke around with you.”
“Don't worry, Molly. I'm going to make it my priority now.”
After Juliane left the groceries in the kitchen and came back out again, Oscar said, “Looks like your skill
of hitting on girls hasn't grown rusty after all these years.”
Julian almost choked on his saliva upon hearing what his friend said.
H-Hitting on girls?
He stared in disbelief at his friend. Did that phrase really come out of Oscar's mouth? “I never knew you'd say stuff like that too,” he said in shock.
Oscar shot him a look for being shocked at something so minor before saying calmly, “Don't people use
these words on social media?”
But you never wanted to acknowledge words like these before. All you thought of was work.
“You've fallen behind, homie. I'm only keeping up with the times. I have a son now, and I don't want him
telling me that I'm outdated when he's older. I don't want him looking down on me for not knowing what
'hitting on girls' means. Would you be able to stand it if a kid did that to you?”
All right. Fair point.
Molly, Amelia, and Tiffany worked together to prepare a table full of dishes. There was a good mix of
meat and vegetables, and the food looked vibrant and delicious.
“Let's eat. You guys go ahead first. I'm going to feed Tony,” Amelia said.
Hearing that, Molly quickly suggested, “Mrs. Clinton, I can feed him. I'll feed him downstairs and bring
him to play with the kids in the neighborhood later.”
Amelia looked at her son and asked gently, “Tony, Molly's going to feed you downstairs, is that okay?”
Tony nodded in response.
At that, Molly brought the boy downstairs, and the rest of them took their seats by the table. Amelia acted like the lady of the house as she beckoned everyone to eat, and she told Oscar to get the
bottle of wine he had kept for years for them to drink.
“Is there anyone who doesn't want to drink?” he asked while popping the bottle open. No one answered.
They were all shocked that Oscar was pouring them the wine himself. He was the successor of Clinton
Corporations, after all. There was never a time when he would pour drinks for others.
Once he was done filling up the glasses, Julian teased, “I've known you for almost thirty years, but this
is the first time you poured me wine, Oscar. Maybe I'll see the sun rise from the west once I'm donedrinking.”
With that, everyone laughed, and the previously slightly tense atmosphere seemed more relaxed now.
In the middle of their meal, Rory got up and said sincerely, “Here's a toast to you, Amelia and Oscar.
I'm very thankful that I've received so much care from Amelia since I arrived in Beshya. Even though I
am her caregiver, she's the one who takes care of me the most, and I am very thankful for that.”
Then, she finished the contents of her glass in one gulp.
Amelia got up and downed hers as well, while Oscar merely took a sip out of his glass. If it wasn't for
his wife, he would have just ignored it when women like her gave toasts to him.
Once she was done drinking, Rory secretly took a glance at Oscar while she wiped her mouth. Love
and admiration flashed through her eyes in an instant.
However, Tiffany started nitpicking when the woman sat down. “You're being unfair, Rory. Derrick and I
took quite good care of you in Beshya too. Why didn't you thank us?”
She didn't like that Rory was trying to butter them up all of a sudden or the discreet look she gave
Oscar earlier. She used to like Derrick, and now she likes Oscar. How can she change who she likes so
quickly? I'm sure she only likes them for their wealth. How annoying!
Rory quickly poured herself another glass and stood up to thank them. However, she had moved too
quickly and bumped into the corner of the table, nearly causing her wine to spill out as a result.
Her face tinged red out of embarrassment and anger. She was ashamed of what had just happened,especially when Oscar was right in front of her.
With the glass still in her hand, she looked over at him, not knowing what to do. Yet, the man was
calmly scooping some food into Amelia's plate. He didn't even bat an eye at her. At that,
disappointment instantly welled up in her heart.
“Ahem!” Tiffany coughed slightly to gain Rory's attention. She had never seen such an idiotic person.
So what if you like him? How can you look over at someone else's husband so shamelessly? Did you
watch too many dramas and think that being a mistress is a proud thing to do? Is that why you want to
snatch someone else's husband so shamelessly?
When the caregiver finally snapped back to her senses, she was met with Tiffany's mocking smile. Her
eyes, which were once full of love for Oscar, instantly cleared up. Forcing a smile, she raised her glass
again and said, “Here's a toast to you, Tiffany, Mr. Hisson. I was originally going to thank you earlier but
was afraid that you'd think that I was just trying to get on your good side. That's why I hesitated.”
“Is that not the case?”
The question put Rory in a tight spot, and an awkward expression immediately appeared on her face.
“Tiffany,” Amelia warned. Since there were so many people around, she didn't want her friend to
humiliate Rory any further. After all, they were going to have to see each other again since everyone
was friends.
Tiffany shrugged but still drank to Rory's toast.
The latter heaved a sigh of relief, but her mood had still been affected when she finally sat down again.
