Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 344 The Fight

"And whose fault is it that I've changed?" shouted Cassie, as she started hitting Oscar with all her might. "You are the most despicable and heartless man I've ever met, Oscar! It's your fault that I've become infertile and my career ruined! You're the reason my hands can never play the piano again. How dare you just leave me when you've caused me so much pain!"

"That was all your doing, and you know it. Don't blame it on somebody else," responded Oscar in an indifferent tone.

Chuckling wryly, Cassie wondered why she fell for someone as cold as Oscar. However, no matter what the man did to her, she simply could not get herself to forget him.

After wiping away the tears that had ruined her makeup, Cassie took a deep breath to recompose herself. "Fine. I won't blame you for what happened because that's in the past now. Now that you're single again, let's start over, okay?"

"That's not going to happen," replied Oscar without a second thought before continuing to walk away from Cassie.

Even though he initially went to the nightclub to get a drink, he knew that was no longer an option after bumping into the woman.

Upset with Oscar's response, Cassie clenched her fists so tightly that her knuckles cracked. However, after regaining her senses, she ran over to Oscar's car and got in.

"Get out," commanded Oscar impatiently.

Still, Cassie remained unmoved as she sat in the back seat. "I'm not going anywhere, Oz. I've sacrificed far too much for you to let you leave me again. If you don't like my heavy makeup, I can put on a lighter one. If you don't like my attitude, I can change that too. I'll be whatever you want me to be. Just let me stay by your side. June's nobody to me. That man's just a pest I couldn't get rid of."

"Get out," repeated Oscar, rubbing his forehead.

Since Cassie still refused to leave, Oscar decided to be the one to get out of the vehicle. He already had a headache in the office that morning, so he would rather not deal with another.

Seeing that, Cassie exited the car as well and continued to tail the man. "I've missed you, Oz. Weren't you going to get a drink? Let me go with you."

Suddenly, Oscar stopped walking and turned around to face Cassie. "If you keep following me like this, I can't promise I'll go as easy on you as I did just now."

However, Cassie was not intimidated by Oscar's threat at all, so he rolled his eyes at the woman before taking his phone out.

"Hugo, get two men over here to keep Ms. Yard away from me," ordered Oscar.

Upon hearing that, Cassie immediately wrapped her arms around Oscar like an octopus once again and pleaded, "Please don't do this to me, Oscar. I love you! I promise I won't disturb you in any way." Oscar remained silent as he emotionlessly let the woman hang on to him.

When Hugo and several men arrived at the scene, they were amused to see their boss' predicament since they had never met anybody more persistent than Cassie. Seeing the way the woman acted, Hugo could not help but wonder why his boss would ever fall for somebody like her in the first place. I guess love really is blind. "It's getting late, Ms. Yard, so let my men send you home. After all, it's not safe for you to be at this kind of place," advised Hugo.

"Don't you dare touch me! Or I'll cry for help!" warned Cassie fiercely, sending daggers at Hugo and the men with him.

Amused yet again by the woman's persistency, Hugo released a chuckle.

"What are you waiting for? Get her out of my sight now," ordered Oscar irritably, so Hugo instructed two bodyguards to pull Cassie off of his boss by force. Unexpectedly, Cassie then started struggling and yelling like a madwoman. "Help! Somebody is robbing me! He's going to kill me! Please help me call the police!"

As soon as Cassie was removed, Oscar instantly made himself scarce. Following closely behind him was Hugo, who had issued further instructions to the bodyguards before leaving.

"Send Ms. Yard back home. When you get there, remind her parents to keep an eye on their misbehaving daughter lest she returns to bother Mr. Clinton again."

"Yes, sir," responded the bodyguards.

Even when they were already a distance away, Oscar and Hugo could still hear Cassie's frenzied screaming. Compared to how she was five years ago, Cassie was a completely different person then. "Should I go get the car now, Boss?" inquired Hugo.

After his boss nodded, Hugo turned back to get the vehicle. Cassie and the bodyguards were already gone when he went back there.

Getting into the back of the car, Oscar immediately leaned against the seat and shut his eyes.

Hugo glanced at his tired-looking employer. "Where do you want to go, Boss?"

"Take me to the apartment where Amelia and I used to live," answered Oscar in a slightly hoarse voice.

When Hugo stopped the car in front of a traffic light, he could not help but mention how lucky his boss had been with the ladies recently.

Though, Oscar simply kept quiet.

After glancing at Oscar, whose eyes remained shut, in the rear-view mirror, Hugo added, "Boss, do you need me to send someone to deal with Ms. Walker and Ms. Yard?"

"No, that's not necessary. They're just a minor nuisance. They'll get bored soon and leave me alone."

"Okay, Boss."

Hugo wondered how the two women would feel if they knew that his boss considered them a nuisance. I'm guessing they'll probably flip! But I suppose Boss has a good reason for feeling that way about them. Heck, any man would probably feel the same way after witnessing how they behaved. Even all that beauty can't help those two.

Hugo kept his thoughts to himself and focused on his driving until he reached the destination.

Ever since Amelia disappeared, Oscar would occasionally stay at their apartment. Sometimes he would return to the Clinton residence, but for most of the time, he stayed overnight in the office for work. "We're here, Boss," informed Hugo softly after stopping the car.

"You can take your leave now, Hugo, but make sure nobody followed me first. I want to be alone," instructed Oscar after opening his eyes.

"Yes, Boss."

After Hugo drove away, Oscar made his way into the apartment. Unexpectedly, the lights inside were already turned on when he entered the house. Hence, his heart started to race, and his grip on the doorknob tightened.

Oscar was so excited that he almost forgot to breathe, but at the same time, he was afraid that it would all turn out to be a dream.

After slowly closing the door behind him, Oscar tiptoed upstairs as if any loud noise would send the person he dearly missed scattering.

Oscar stood outside the bedroom for a while, hesitant to turn the doorknob. Surprisingly, someone on the other side of the door opened for him. Oscar widened his eyes in shock when he saw who the person

was.

"What are you doing here?" Oscar could hear the sound of his hope shattering as he continued to stare at the person.

Before the other party could respond, Oscar angrily grabbed him by the collar. "You told me you were not in contact with Amelia. Why are you here, then, Derrick? Who gave you the keys?"

Derrick was just as surprised to see Oscar, for he only went there to pick up something for Amelia and was not expecting to bump into anyone. In an awkward situation like that, Derrick knew things would get messy.

Still, he tried to resolve the issue in a peaceful manner. "There's no need to get physical, Mr. Clinton. Now, can you please unhand me?"

To respond to the question, Oscar unceremoniously punched the man's pretty face. "I have been wanting to do this for a long time. I just never did because I didn't want to upset Amelia. But you just had to keep trying my patience, didn't you? Well, now you know my limit, and I'm going to make you regret it."

Oscar held nothing back as he continued to swing his fists at Derrick, who quickly fought back after taking a few hits. The two men clung to each other and traded blows until they exhausted their strength. Eventually, the fight ended in a draw. It was difficult for Oscar or Derrick to tell who won since they were both equally injured. Two handsome faces were ruined by a bleeding nose and bruised cheeks that evening.

For some reason, after exchanging looks, the two men suddenly burst out laughing together. Somehow, they discovered a newfound respect for each other after the slugfest.

"Amelia gave you the keys, didn't she?" inquired Oscar, sitting on the floor.

Derrick knew it would be meaningless to keep the truth from the man at that point, so he nodded.

With his heart racing, Oscar gulped and gritted his teeth before replaceing the courage to ask, "Is she... Is she doing okay?"

Derrick took a moment to consider what to tell the man and decided not to mention Amelia's blindness. "She's good. She's happy to have Tony by her side."

Taking another look at the other man, Oscar questioned, "She's still in Beshya, isn't she?

"Amelia and Tiff were staying at my villa before my mother said some mean things to them. They got upset, so they just sent me a text message before disappearing for good. I don't know if they're in Beshya or not either. Of course, it's up to you whether you want to believe me. I really do love Tiff, and I've pursued her for three years. It's a shame that my family will always stand between us. That's why she hasn't

accepted me yet. Initially, I wished for her to stay at my villa because I wanted to be close to her. However, my mother's words had left a bad taste in her mouth. I have been looking for them ever since," lied Derrick as he stared down at the floor, but Oscar was not convinced.

"You're lying."
