Chapter 810

In the end, Jennifer shoved Carter away and got out of the vehicle. Then, she then drove her car back to the Larson

residence.

Carter sat on the chair in a daze and was lost in his thoughts. He finally drove off after a long while.

The following day, he drove to Amelia's office early in the morning.

Sitting inside his car, Carter witnessed Oscar sending Amelia to work, and the couple said goodbye to one another

intimately for a long while before finally separating.

After seeing Amelia walking into the company's building, Carter started the car's engine and trailed behind Oscar's

car.

As Carter followed Oscar without even trying to be subtle, he was not surprised when the latter stopped his car at

an empty field, got out of the vehicle, and waited for him while leaning against the car.

Carter skillfully parked his car beside Oscar's.

Then, he unbuckled his seatbelt and walked up to Oscar.

Oscar arched his brow when he saw Carter. He merely sensed a car stalking him, but little did he expect the person

behind the wheels to be Carter, his ex-love rival who was no more than a stranger to him now.

"It's been a long time, Oscar," Carter uttered calmly.

Oscar folded his arm in front of his chest and said, "I do not think there is a need for us to meet."

Carter shrugged.

We are not love rivals anymore. You don't have to treat me like an enemy," Carter suggested humbly.

Oscar glanced at him and noticed that Carter was no longer as unapproachable as before.

"Tell me. Why were you following me?" Oscar cut to the chase.

Carter chuckled before answering, "It's nothing major.

I'm just wondering if you can stop harming Mrs. Larson, for Amelia's sake."

Oscar could not recall who Mrs. Larson was at that instant.

Carter courteously explained, "She's Jennifer's mother."

Oscar gained clarity over Laura's identity but became even more baffled than before because he had never taken

Jennifer seriously. Therefore, her act of revenge was insignificant to him. Besides, Amelia had told him Jennifer did

not do anything overboard so he could not drive Jennifer to the brink of desperation since that was not a chivalrous

move. As a result, Oscar gradually stopped paying attention to Jennifer, much less her mother, who was completely

off Oscar's radar.

For that reason, he did not fathom the meaning behind Carter's request to ask him to let Laura off the hook.

Ever since he caused her to be sent into a psychiatric hospital, and she was subsequently brought away by the

Larsons, Oscar had not attempted to suppress the Larson family afterward, so Carter's words did not make sense

to Oscar.

Isn't she staying at the Larson residence? Why are you asking me to stop harming her?" Oscar asked indifferently.

"She suddenly went insane yesterday and fought with a dog. The dog bit her, causing her arms and legs to be

wounded. If someone had not discovered her in time, Mrs. Larson could have lost her life. The doctor said someone

had injected her with hallucinogenic medicines, prompting her to have false perceptions," Carter elaborated.

Oscar was a smart person. Naturally, he understood what Carter was implying.

He stared at Carter and said in amusement, "So, you think I sent someone to inject her with the hallucinogen?"

Carter did not say a word. Oscar took his silence as an agreement.

Feeling inexplicably confident, Oscar raised his brows and added, "I did not do that."

Carter was stunned as he gazed at Oscar doubtfully.

He was very certain that Oscar was the mastermind because the latter was the only one capable of hurting Laura.

After all, the Larsons were considered a wealthy and influential family. Even though Jennifer's video scandal had

negatively affected their family's company, the consequences were not dire enough to shake the company's

foundation. Hence, aside from Oscar, Carter could not think of anyone else who could lay a finger on Laura, who

was well protected and guarded by the Larson family's bodyguards and housekeepers.

It's really not you?" Carter asked again.

"I would not have done anything to her if she did not hit Amelia that day. Since Laura had received the punishment

she deserved, I would not be so dishonorable as to harm her further. Laura is a feisty and haughty woman, so I

reckon she must have offended plenty of people after living in this world for so long. I'd suggest you investigate this

matter thoroughly. Still, I'm surprised you fell in love with Jennifer despite the scandal. Pfft. I don't know if I should

describe you as a fool for love or a masochist."

Oscar wore a poker face. He was about to return to his car when Carter piped up, "Oscar, for Amelia's sake, can

you agree to my request?"

Oscar stopped abruptly in his tracks. "Go on.’ "Jennifer harbors a great misunderstanding toward you at the

moment. Can you forgive her if she truly does something to take revenge on you?" "I draw the line at Amelia and

Tony's safety." In other words, as long as Jennifer did not act impulsively by trying to target Amelia or Tony, Oscar

could still spare Jennifer.

Carter pondered briefly before uttering, "I will never let her harm Amelia too." "I hope so." With that, Oscar got into

his car and sped off.

Carter stood rooted to his spot for some time before returning to his car and driving to Amelia's office.

In the afternoon, Amelia received a call from Carter, inviting her to have a meal together. She was slightly surprised

but agreed to his invitation, nonetheless.

Jolin followed Amelia downstairs. She sized up Carter, and after deeming the latter not dangerous, she turned

around and walked to Amelia's behind, guarding her protectively.

Carter merely glanced at her without saying a word.

The three of them went to a restaurant together. Instead of sharing the same table as Amelia, Jolin sensibly sat

around a different table not far from Amelia which provided him with a plain view to keep an eye on her facial

expressions.

Carter felt slightly ill at ease as he sensed John's piercing gaze fixed in their direction.

"I'm sorry, but that's how Jolin behaves," Amelia said with a smile.

Carter shook his head. "That's all right. I'm just a little shocked by how much you've changed because of Oscar. I

remember you did not like men to be over controlling toward you."

That was in the past. Things are different now. If you genuinely love someone, you'll unknowingly change for them.

Allowing Jolin to stay by my side constantly is just a way of reassuring him so that he's not worried about me even

when he needs to focus on his work." Amelia chuckled softly. "He's concerned about my safety after what

happened to me. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so unnerved."

Oscar's profound affection toward Amelia touched Carter. / know I can never love her as deeply as Oscar. Perhaps

this is why she chose Oscar instead of me previously

After placing their order and waiting for their food to be served, Amelia asked, "Carter, why are you treating me to

a meal today? Do you have anything you want to say to me?"

Carter gazed downward as he could not bring himself to reply.

Sensing that, Amelia did not press the matter either.

Silence lingered in the air around them.

After the waiter served their food on the table, Amelia plated a portion of salad for each of them and said, "Can you

tell me now?"

Carter laughed. "It's nothing, actually. I just want to ask a favor."

Jennifer is at odds with you and Oscar. I'm afraid she will target Clinton Corporations. If she really makes a move,

can you help persuade Oscar to be more lenient, for my sake?"

Amelia was astounded.

She had never anticipated someone as distinguished and proud as Carter would beg others for help.

She ate a mouthful of food and asked straightforwardly, "What is your current relationship with her?"

A bitter smile spread across his face as he shook his head.

We are not in any kind of relationship. She's very wary of me at the moment.” "In that case, why do you think I

should help her?"

Carter was momentarily dazed as he regarded Amelia with a complicated expression.

She was a woman he had loved for many years. A woman who still held a special space in his heart, even now.

Amelia chortled and said, "I'm just kidding. As long as she doesn't do anything as inhumane as trying to hurt my

son, I will talk to Oscar for your sake." "You two are indeed a married couple. I heard a speech similar to yours from

him too," Carter commented in an undertone.

Amelia raised her eyebrow.

"You already approached Oscar?"

Carter nodded.

"It seems like, unbeknownst to me, your relationship with Oscar is not as terrible as I imagined." Amelia's words

were seemingly implying something.

Carter merely responded with an indifferent smile.
