Too Much To Bear My Love

Oscar glanced at Amelia again and Olivia added, “Why are you looking at her? You’ve been her husband for four years. Don’t you know that she’s not someone who will talk behind others’ back? I rarely intervene in your matters, but you’re still my son. I still know what you’ve done. Now that you have a wife, I hope you’ll stop flirting around and ignore the women who you should not bother yourself with.”

Oscar’s expression turned grim. “Mom, I heard Dad say that he booked two tickets to Caspardion. Enjoy your trip with him. I’ll pay for all the expenses.”

Olivia waved dismissively. “Oscar, I told you I won’t intervene in your matters, but I hope you’ll realize who actually treats you well and who’s the woman who should be the most important to you. Don’t regret it.”

Oscar was her son, and it was impossible for Olivia not to realize that he had some feelings for Amelia. She knew that he might not even notice it, and she was afraid that he would assume that his love was for the traitorous Cassie instead of Amelia, who had been with him for four years.

That is how men sometimes are. They do not cherish what they have, and they would yearn for the one who hurt them. It is because they could not get the latter, and that is why the latter seems exceptionally precious. However, once the man has spent some time with the woman who hurt him, he would realize that what he had for that woman is not love but his unwillingness to admit defeat.

“Mom, have you had your breakfast?” Oscar said instead, sitting down.

“I’m too furious to have an appetite.” It seemed like Olivia was truly angry this time, for her tone was glacial.

Amelia then handed Olivia an apple with a smile. “Mom, Oscar only went to the office for his work. You’re his mother, so he won’t say anything even if you reprimand him. However, it won’t be the same for me, who is his wife. So, Mom, please let Oscar off the hook this time for my sake.”

Her words amused Olivia, and she chuckled.

“Don’t you know that I’m trying to stand up for you?”

“Mom, you’re the best mother-in-law I’ve ever seen. For my sake, don’t be mad at Oscar anymore.”

Finally, Olivia’s mood seemed to improve.

Staring at Oscar, Olivia advised, “Oscar, I won’t stick my nose into your marriage affairs, but I hope you’ll pay attention and figure out who’s the one who treats you best. Don’t make any rash decisions only to regret them in the end.”

Oscar listened in silence and seeing that, Olivia could only sigh.

After lunch at the Clinton residence, Oscar and Amelia then went back to their apartment located in the city center. Upon entering the apartment, Oscar sat down on the couch and gazed at Amelia gloomily.

With a smile, Amelia walked over and asked, “Mr. Clinton, are you angry with me?”

His voice was low as he questioned, “Did Cassie call me yesterday?”

Instead of hiding it from him, Amelia nodded honestly. “Yes. What’s the matter? Did Ms. Yard tattletale on me?”

Oscar’s expression turned even grimmer. “I see you’re getting bolder, Amelia. Not only did you pick up my call without telling me, but you even deleted the call history. If something happened to her last night, I would never forgive you.”
