Too Much To Bear My Love

Chapter 716 Humiliation

Amelia tried to pout but gritted her teeth in pain when she attempted to move the muscles in her face. She covered her chin and said in a loud voice, “Dad, someone stuffed me into a sack and beat me up! I don’t know who did this, but you must avenge me!”

Benjamin did, after all, love his only daughter. Seeing her in this battered state distressed him greatly. He said, “Sean, send out someone to investigate who had the guts to do this in the open. Not to mention right in front of a hospital! The Huttons can’t be bullied in such an undignified manner!”

“Of course, Dad.” Before Sean left, he gave Amelia a meaningful look. His gut instinct told him that it was probably Oscar who did this.

As soon as Sean left, Benjamin gave Amelia a pointed look, his expression strangely calm. This gave her goosebumps.

“Dad, what’s the matter with you? Why are you looking at me like that?” asked Amelia timidly.

“Amelia, be honest with me,” said Benjamin bluntly. “Did you p*ss off anyone?”

“Dad, you know me! Apart from going shopping or partying with my friends or even extended trips to different cities, how would I offend anyone? But if you’re asking me if there’s anyone who dislikes me and wants to cause trouble, that’s another story,” replied Amelia thoughtfully.

Amelia did not have any true enemies, in the sense of the word. Sure, there were occasional spats with her female friends over men, but she got along with men quite well otherwise. She could not think of anyone cruel enough to attack her so viciously. If she had been discovered any later, she would have either sustained severe injuries or, worse still, died.

“Dad, you must avenge me! Otherwise, my attackers will think that we’re nothing but a powerless and compliant family,” exclaimed Amelia passionately.

Benjamin stood up and put his hands behind his back. “Given that your mother is in the hospital, you should stop causing any more trouble. I’ve asked your brother to investigate this matter thoroughly. However, you must not aggravate your mother, or I will cut you off from funds.”

Amelia was upset and muttered softly, “Dad, I’m also injured. Don’t you care?”

“Your mother hasn’t woken up yet, and something bad has befallen you. How am I supposed to be concerned?”

“It’s been so long. Has she not awakened yet?”

Benjamin looked grim, glanced at her, and pursed his lips.

“Dad, I want to see Mom. Since she’s still unconscious after so long, I’m getting rather worried.”

“Take care of yourself first, and don’t cause any more trouble for me,” said Benjamin, ignoring her request. “Focus on recuperating. I’ll take care of your mother. Since these are just flesh wounds, you’ll be fine on your own.”

“Dad, are you not going to stay with me?”

Benjamin glared at her angrily.

“You’ll be fine! Besides, there will be a nurse to help you out. Stop messing around. Your mother still needs more care than you do.” Having said that, Benjamin left without sparing his daughter another glance.
