Too Much To Bear My Love

Chapter 158 I Just Want To Be Alone

Jennifer felt conflicted. Carter’s words went into her heart like an iron shard. She had never seen anyone as heartless as him. When he got admitted to the hospital, she took care of him. Not even his mother was as thorough as her. However, the man had just rejected her cruelly in front of her love rival.

It was unfortunate that she had fallen in love with someone this ruthless.

Jennifer’s hoarse voice rang out, “Carter, can’t you feel my love for you? Why won’t you pick me?”

Carter glanced at Amelia and replied, “She’s irreplaceable.”

Despair flitted across Jennifer’s face.

Meanwhile, Amelia was uncomfortable with Carter’s confession. She only regarded him as a friend, but now, things were going to turn awkward for the both of them.

Tiffany cut in, “Jinx, can you not drag Amelia into this mess? You’re making things difficult for her. Don’t you get it?”

Carter glanced at Amelia apologetically. “Amelia, I didn’t mean it. I…”

Amelia shook her head and said casually, “I think you should talk to Ms. Larson. Tiff and I shall return for now. I’ll visit you another day.”

Immediately, Carter panicked and took Amelia’s hand. “Amelia, don’t leave. There’s nothing between Jennifer and me. Trust me.”

Amelia froze. “Stop it, Carter.”

Tiffany slapped his hand away and stood in front of Amelia. “Jinx, if you keep on doing this, you won’t get to see Amelia again.”

Carter glanced at Amelia earnestly.

After witnessing the entire debacle, hatred flashed across Jennifer’s eyes. “That’s enough,” she croaked out.

Tiffany shot her a look and told Amelia, “Let’s go.”

In his haste to stop Amelia from leaving, Carter struggled to get off the bed. Seeing how he was holding his stomach and wincing in pain, Amelia sighed and pried Tiffany’s hand away. She returned to Carter and helped him lie down. “Carter, you’re still ill. Be careful.”

Carter settled in his bed gratefully. He gazed at Amelia affectionately and uttered, “Amelia, you’re worried about me, right?”

Averting her gaze, Amelia answered, “Carter, you’re still recovering, so don’t act hastily. You should take good care of yourself.”
