Chapter 461Chapter 461
Amelia did not ask the suspect too many questions. After another two questions, she came out and
saw a middle-aged man with a beer belly sucking up to Oscar.
“Mommy!” Anthony, who was on Oscar's lap, saw Amelia and reached out to her.
Amelia carried Anthony and said, “Oscar, who is this?”
When that middle-aged man saw her, he was mesmerized and nearly forgot that Oscar was next to
him.
Oscar's gaze turned cold, and he deliberately spoke loudly. “Amelia, this is Chief Gardner. He heard
that you have been threatened and rushed here all the way.”
Will instantly regained his senses.
Amelia smiled politely at him and offered a handshake. “Chief Gardner, nice to meet you. I'm Amelia.”
“I've always heard that Mr. Clinton's wife is an extremely charming woman. Now that I see you in
person, the rumors are true. You're indeed a beauty. Together with Mr. Clinton, the both of you look like
a match made in heaven.” Both of Will's hands were holding on to Amelia's hand. The touch of her skin
made it impossible for him to let go.
Oscar's face darkened immediately. He cleared his throat, and Will snapped out of it quickly. Worried
that Oscar might be angry with him, he released Amelia's hand and smiled awkwardly. “Mr. Clinton, my subordinates will interrogate the suspect. We'll look into every single detail. Once we
find out who the mastermind is, we will have them arrested and locked up,” said Will sincerely.
“I shall thank you in advance, Chief Gardner. Once you have the mastermind in custody, I'll treat
everyone in the station to a meal,” responded Oscar.
“If Mr. Clinton is treating us, I'm sure everyone will attend. I doubt anybody in Tayhaven will dare to turn
down an invitation from you, Mr. Clinton,” Will groveled.
Oscar said humbly, “I'm just a small-time businessman and a common citizen. I'm nothing compared to
an official like yourself, Chief Gardner.”
Despite what Oscar had said, Will dared not utter anything. The power of the Clintons had already
gotten as high as the military. Even the army had to give Oscar their due respect. A low-ranking chief
like himself would certainly not dare to put on airs in front of Oscar.
Will laughed. “Mr. Clinton is such a joker. How can I be comparable to you?”
Oscar chuckled slightly before saying, “Chief Gardner, our son has yet to have his dinner. Let me take
the two of them for their meal. As for my wife's issue, I shall leave it in your good hands.”
“It's already so late, and all of you haven't eaten yet? Then, Mr. Clinton, you better go ahead. I'll get
someone to interrogate the suspect. Don't worry about it. I should be able to get some results within a
day.”
They chatted briefly before Oscar left the police station with Amelia and Anthony. Once they were in the car, Oscar asked, “Did you recognize that person?”
Amelia was sitting in the backseat with Anthony on her lap. She shook her head and said, “I don't know
the suspect. As for the mastermind, I couldn't recall anyone I know based on his descriptions.”
Oscar's face fell. “Don't worry. Chief Gardner will investigate this matter thoroughly.”
“Did you ask him to come here?”
Oscar answered casually, “I called him specially.”
Amelia looked at her son and said, “Tony, see how nice Daddy treats me. The moment someone
bullied me, your daddy immediately taught the person a lesson. Your daddy is an invincible hero. With
him around, we will be safe and sound.”
Anthony stood up and looked at Oscar. He turned back to Amelia and agreed by nodding his head. “Big
Meanie is a hero, but he is still not as good as Daddy. But, since Mommy likes him, I will like Big
Meanie more. Whoever treats Mommy well is a good person.”
Both Oscar and Amelia could not help but laugh out loud.
Anthony seemed pleased too. He continued with gusto, “Mommy, I'll finish that Big Meanie who bullied
you for you.”
Amelia pulled her son into her arms and kissed his cheeks. “My good son, you're so adorable. I wantyou to be by my side always.”
Anthony leaned in her embrace and said, “Mommy, I like you a lot. You are my favorite person. Not
even Daddy.”
Amelia's heart was about to melt. With such a lovable son by her side, no obstacles were
unsurmountable.
Oscar was not driving in the direction of their home. Amelia noticed that and asked, “Oscar, where are
we going? Aren't we heading home?”
“Tony has been back for a while now, but we haven't brought him to the amusement park yet. Since
tomorrow is a weekend, I thought we could take him there.” With his hands on the steering wheel, he
turned around and asked Anthony when the traffic lights turned red, “Tony, shall we go to the
amusement park, or do you want to go somewhere else?”
The little boy's eyes widened with interest, and he asked excitedly, “Big Meanie, can I really go
anywhere I want to?”
Oscar nodded.
“Then, I want to take the roller coaster,” proclaimed Anthony loudly.
Oscar was taken aback.
“Tony, do you really want to go on the roller coaster ride?” asked Oscar tentatively. The young boy nodded his head solemnly. “I think it will be very thrilling to take the roller coaster ride.
In the past, I asked Mommy and Daddy to take me there, but they refused. Big Meanie, why don't you
take me there? If you do that, I'll regard you as a hero.”
Oscar chuckled. This boy is really smart. At such a tender age, he already knows how to manipulate
others. Tony certainly reminds me of myself when I was young. He is, without a doubt, my son.
“Fine. I'll take you there.”
There was no protest from Amelia as well.
By the time they arrived at the largest amusement park of Tayhaven, it was already close to ten o'clock.
The place closed only at half-past eleven, so they still had some time to play.
Oscar went to purchase the entrance tickets. After that, he placed Anthony on his shoulders, and they
looked at the Ferris wheel. They could hear loud screaming coming from the rides. “Tony, are you sure
you won't be afraid?”
On the contrary, Anthony was eyeing the Ferris wheel with a face full of excitement. He started hopping
up and down on Oscar's shoulders and shouted, “Daddy, I want to go up on that one. Quick! Quick!”
Oscar held the boy firmly and asked Amelia, “Amelia, are you all right with it?”
She smiled. “Oscar, go and spend some quality time with Tony.”
He reached out to caress her face and said with a smile, “I'll go with Tony then.” Both Oscar and Anthony were finally seated on the Ferris wheel while Amelia looked on from the
ground. After one round, the boy was still as excited as ever. On the other hand, Oscar looked
dumbfounded, and his eyes seemed strange. Amelia asked worriedly, “Oscar, are you all right?”
He shook his head.
However, Anthony said excitedly, “Daddy, I want more.”
Oscar looked dizzy. Hence, Amelia carried Anthony and told him, “Tony, once is enough. Remember
what I told you before? Even if it's something we like very much, having it once is sufficient. We mustn't
be too greedy.”
Anthony pouted his lips and shot Oscar a pitiful look.
Oscar, who had always been cold to most people, could not refuse when he saw Anthony looking at
him like that.
He carried Anthony from Amelia and said, “It's fine. He hardly comes to the amusement park. I'll take
him for another round.”
“Then, I will go too. The three of us will go as a family,” Amelia insisted.
“Are you up for it?”
“Of course! I have no fear of heights.” In the end, the family of three went on the Ferris wheel.
After the second round, Oscar's face had turned pale. When Amelia saw that, she was shocked too.
“Oscar, are you sure you are okay?”
Oscar had initially wanted to shake his head. However, he felt nauseous. He ran straight to one corner
and started throwing up violently. Amelia was stunned when she saw that.
She ran over with Anthony in her arms, put her son down, and patted Oscar's back. “Oscar, how are
you feeling?”
Oscar felt so much better after he finished vomiting. He waved his hand and responded, “I'm fine.”
It was very embarrassing for someone as fearless as Oscar to vomit after a Ferris wheel ride.
Unfortunately, that was something he would have to live with for the rest of his life.
When Amelia saw him in that state, she did not know whether to laugh or cry. At the same time, she felt
sorry for him too.
Amelia could clearly see the changes in Oscar, and she was touched.
He used to be an aloof person who deemed himself superior to others. Now, he was willing to take a
ride on the Ferris wheel like a commoner for the sake of both her son and herself.
“Oscar, since you cannot take the Ferris wheel, why didn't you say so earlier? I feel so bad to see you
get sick.” Once Oscar felt better, he stood up and caressed her cheeks. “I didn't expect to have such a reaction
either. Did I make a fool of myself just now? Tony must be very disappointed with me.”
Amelia looked at him lovingly and said, “No, you are particularly attractive today. I understand you so
much better now. I find it harder to leave you as I discover more merits of yours.”
Just then, Anthony tugged at Amelia's dress and interrupted their romantic moment.
“Big Meanie,” Anthony called out as he looked up at Oscar. “Shame on you. You vomited just now. But,
since you went on the Ferris wheel twice with me, you are still a hero in my heart.”
Oscar could finally rest assured. He was really worried that Anthony might think poorly of him.
He was so thrilled to become Tony's hero that the happiness he felt at that moment outweighed the
satisfaction he got from a successful business deal that was worth billions. It looked like the time spent
between a father and his son was more precious than what money could buy.
