Chapter 804

Stephanie made an effort to appeal to Amelia and even sought Olivia's help to do so.

Olivia had specially invited Amelia and her family to visit. Since Oscar just so happened to have work matters to attend to, Amelia could only head over with Tony accompanying her.

Hugging Tony, Olivia asked affectionately, "Are you very busy these days?"

Amelia sat down on the other couch and replied, "Thanks for your concern. It's been all right."

Just then, Stephanie came out of the kitchen with a tray of fruit in her hands and a wide smile adorning her lips. "Amelia, you're here! I was just about to call you. I didn't expect you to be here already. Where's Oscar?" she asked.

Sweeping her gaze over at Stephanie, Amelia replied, "He had some matters to take care of at the company, so I came here first with Tony."

Stephanie set the tray on the table and grabbed a piece for Tony. "Tony, here. Try this! Your grandmother told me you liked these fruits, so I got these from the countryside, especially for you."

Tony glanced at her warily. He made no move to accept the food.

A hint of annoyance flashed across Stephanie's eyes at

his reluctance, but she managed to conceal it. Even Olivia did not realize her true feelings. However, Tony was a sensitive child, and he had always been clever. Naturally, he had sensed Stephanie's displeasure. Tony wrinkled his nose. He had no intentions of playing nice with Stephanie.

"Grandma, I had a stomachache since this morning. Is it okay if I don't want to eat the fruits?" he said coyly.

Upon hearing this, Olivia panicked. "How did you get a stomachache? Let me take a look at you! Oh my, your complexion looks bad. Let me give Robert a call and request he come over and give you a check-up. We can't possibly let anything happen to you!" Olivia muttered worriedly.

Tony sat in Olivia's arms obediently. In a rather sullen tone, he said, "Grandma, I'm okay. I just don't feel like eating the fruits."

Olivia glanced over at Stephanie. "Stephanie, since he doesn't feel like eating, stop forcing the child."

Stephanie nearly bit her tongue in anger. This mother- and-son duo is really adept at getting on my nerves. Both of them are so cunning!

"I didn't know you had a stomachache, Tony. It's okay if you don't feel like eating." Stephanie tossed the fruits back on the plate and glanced over at Amelia. "By the way, I've been meaning to invite you to visit some tourist attractions. Since it's not peak tourist season right now, it's more convenient for pregnant women like me. Would you care to join me?"

Olivia chimed in, "Amelia, Stephanie has matured a lot ever since she got married. She told me she did terrible things to you in the past, and now she wishes to repent. Since we're family now, why not let bygones be bygones? Could you give her a chance for my sake?"

Amelia lowered her gaze. No one could see the expression she was wearing.

When she lifted her head a moment later, she acted as if there was nothing amiss. She smiled and said, "Mom, I've never held it against Stephanie. It's all water under the bridge. As for visiting the tourist attractions, ordinarily, I would agree to it, but since she's around six to seven months pregnant, I don't think it's a good idea. I have no idea how I'd face the Walkers if something were to happen to her. So Mom, please don't put me in such a spot."

Olivia's expression darkened.

Stephanie looked at her and beseeched, "Amelia, you said you don't blame me. I wish to bury the hatchet and get along with you, but you're refusing to let me make amends. Your words really hurt, you know that?"

Amelia replied warmly, "Stephanie, I'm doing this for your own good. You're heavily pregnant, so it's not a good idea to visit those places. Instead, why don't you visit my home and we can have a good long chat there?"

This was the limit of her compromise.

Upon hearing that, Olivia's expression eased up a little.

"All right, that's a promise. I'll make sure to visit you regularly when you have free time."

Amelia nodded in response.

Olivia patted Tony, who sat in her embrace. "Your Aunt Stephanie wasn't trying to make things difficult for you. Please try to get along with her, all right?"

Tony shot a glance at Amelia before turning back to look at Olivia. He blinked his eyes innocently. "Grandma, did Aunt Stephanie try to do something bad to me?"

Olivia choked for a moment.

Soon, Noah and Isabella both arrived.

"Amelia," the siblings greeted her in unison.

Amelia merely nodded politely.

"Isabella, Noah! I made up with Amelia. From this day forward, we're a happy family," Stephanie bragged. "Isabella, I'm on Amelia's side now. So don't you dare have any designs on my brother, or I won't forgive you!"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Isabella's eyes. Smiling wryly, she said, "Come now. Stephanie, don't make fun of me. I no longer dared to covet Oscar.

In fact, I'd be happy to stay as far away from him as possible. But I guess Oscar and Amelia didn't seem to believe that I'd stay away. No matter what I did, I would always be the bad guy."

Amelia calmly watched as Stephanie and Isabella put on their little show. The sudden change in their attitudes was suspicious to her. Both of them decided to have a change of heart at the same time. I bet they're plotting something.

It was obvious that Olivia was on their side when she persuaded, "Amelia, they both mean well. So please, for my sake, don't act so defensively around them."

Stephanie glared at him without comment.

Meanwhile, Oscar hurried over the moment he settled matters at the company.

When they saw him coming in, the Walker siblings maintained their composure and did not step forward to fawn over him. Before long, everyone was able to finish their meal peacefully.

Oscar, Amelia, and Tony stayed at the Clinton residence before heading back at around eight o'clock at night. Stephanie and the Walker siblings made sure to leave at the same time.

As they headed to the parking lot, Oscar suddenly said, "Noah, you'd better keep a leash on your sister and wife. If my wife expresses any displeasure, I'm going to hand over the documents to the police. Your mistress did provide me with all sorts of dirt, after all. Although you won't be sentenced to life, I reckon you'll have to do six to seven years of jail time. I'm sure you know how much

I hate presumptuous people." Noah stiffened at Oscar's words before his expression turned cold. Chuckling, he said, "Oscar, you seem to have misunderstood something. They were only trying to patch things up with Amelia. We're a family now. It won't do us good to be too distant from each other." In response, Oscar gave him an impassive look.

Noah instantly perked up and declared, "Don't worry, Oscar. I'll talk to Isabella and Stephanie. I'll tell them to keep away from Amelia as much as possible." "You'd better."

Once Oscar headed toward Amelia and Tony, Noah's face darkened. The irritation he felt toward Isabella and Stephanie grew stronger.

When they returned to the Walker residence, Noah made

Stephanie go upstairs before pulling Isabella to the side.

"Isabella, I'm warning you. I'm not interested in your plans but they'd better not involve Steph," he warned with gritted teeth.

Isabella shot her brother a disdainful look. "You're bad at managing the company. If it weren't for Stephanie's and my help, do you think Oscar would invest in our company?"

Noah snorted in response. "Isabella, don't try to be a smart-aleck and become a victim of your own cleverness. Don't get ahead of yourself and end up with nothing." "Rest assured, I have it all planned out. Things will only get better from now onward. I will do whatever it takes, and sooner or later, Oscar will be mine. Just you wait and see," Isabella declared confidently. "Don't come begging to me then."

Noah felt as if his sister was still clinging to a three-year- long pipe dream. He was utterly sick of it. If she really has the ability to change Oscar's mind, she won't still be here, unable to even touch the man's fingertips. "I hope you know what you're doing." Upon saying that,

Noah turned around to leave.

A smirk tugged at Isabella's lips. Just you wait and see.

Oscar will be mine! And to those who think that I'm just digging my own grave, I'll make sure to return the favor. She had been shamelessly pursuing Oscar for three years. She was sure that the setbacks she encountered would eventually bring her glory in the future. Isabella was going to make the jaws of the people who once at her drop. She would then force them to admit they were wrong about her before making them suck up to her. Isabella was going to emerge as the final victor.
