Too Much To Bear My Love

“Were you both planning to inform me only after the divorce?”

Amelia nodded in acquiesce.

Olivia held a fist against her chest, visibly angered. Realizing that, Amelia asked worriedly, “Mom, what’s wrong? Is your chest hurting again?”

Olivia waved her hand. “Do you even regard me as your mom?”

Panicking, Amelia rushed to say, “Mom, even if Oscar and I were to get a divorce, I’ll always regard you as an elder. Ever since I married into the Clintons, you’ve treated me as if I was your own daughter. That was the most flattering thing for me. I’ve never once thought a noble lady like you would treat a daughter-in-law who had no family background so well—well enough that I’d want to stay with the Clintons for the rest of my life. But fate is unpredictable. Perhaps we’ll no longer be in-laws very soon.”

Amelia wasn’t an impulsive person, but in the presence of someone who treated her wholeheartedly, she truly could not bear to come up with more lies. Should she get a divorce from Oscar, the person she would miss the most would undoubtedly be the lady sitting in front of her.

Olivia inhaled a deep breath, calming herself down. “Oscar’s the one who initiated the divorce, am I right?” Olivia sounded absolutely certain despite her questioning tone.

Amelia didn’t deny it. “Mom, Oscar and I no longer have the affinity to be husband and wife. I’m only telling you now so that you won’t be caught unprepared for it.”

Olivia’s hand trembled in rage. “Did he go back to Cassie?”

“Mom, Oscar has only loved one woman in his life. I’ve tried all ways to find my way into his heart. It’s been four years. It’s time for me to admit my defeat,” Amelia confessed defeatedly. She’d spent four years trying to win one man’s heart, yet he didn’t even want the child between them.

Olivia rose and claimed, “I’m against the divorce. I’m gonna call him back right now. Don’t worry. He won’t do anything to you as long as I’m here.”

Amelia took her hand, her eyes pleading. “Mom, I’d like to handle the matters between Oscar and me on my own. Please don’t get involved. Oscar is a filial son; he’ll obey you, but I don’t want him to force himself to be with me because of it.”

Olivia felt an ache in her heart as she looked at Amelia. “You’re too kind-hearted, Amelia.”

“And this kindness is only given to the Clintons. Don’t worry. If there’s a way to not divorce Oscar, I definitely won’t. No matter what the conclusion is, you’ll forever be my mom.”

“All right, get some rest. I’ll go rest as well.”

“See you later, Mom.”

Olivia didn’t look good after she left Amelia’s room. Seeing that, Owen’s face fell. “She’s not pregnant?”

“Trust you to teach such a good son. Before he’s learned anything else, he’s learned to divorce!” Olivia said furiously.
