Too Much To Bear My Love

Chapter 720 Wilful

Stephanie pouted willfully, thinking she should be treated as a priority because she was pregnant. “Mom, it’s Noah’s fault. There’s simply a child in my belly, that’s all, and he’s acting like it’s a big deal. He won’t let me do anything. If this continues, I’m going to make a trip to the hospital for an abortion.” Olivia almost blew her top when she heard that.

Amelia, on the other hand, shook her head. Seems like Stephanie has become increasingly obnoxious after her marriage. She actually had the audacity to mention aborting the baby! Amelia was confident that if Stephanie put what she said into practice, the Walker family would kill her.

Noah didn’t get married to Stephanie out of pure love; he was only nice to her because of the Clintons. The Walker family also wished she could give birth to a child as soon as possible so they could have a rightful heir to the family. Above all, Noah was the Walker family’s only son. The woman he married couldn’t necessarily be regarded as a tool for giving birth, but their seemingly perfect marriage wouldn’t be able to last long if Stephanie failed to conceive a child.

Alas, Stephanie was spoiled by Noah’s unintentional conniving. Thinking she could get away with anything, she made no effort to mind the words that came out of her mouth, having no idea that what she said had angered both Noah and Isabella. Nonetheless, the duo could only suppress their fury because the Clintons were present.

Just then, Tony’s adorable voice broke the awkward and tense atmosphere. “Mommy!”

Everyone wheeled around to look at Amelia and Oscar, finally realizing their presence.

Tony wriggled his tiny body and slid out of Olivia’s arms before running over to his mother, hugging her legs.

Amelia bent down and picked her son up. Then, she walked toward Olivia with Oscar by her side and greeted, “Mom.”

“Oh, you’re here. Let’s eat.”

Stephanie concealed the annoyance on her countenance the moment she saw Oscar. She put on a smile and fixed her hair, which wasn’t even messy, to begin with. “Oscar, when did you come back?”

“I’ve just arrived and happened to see you reprimanding your husband like a queen. I bet it’s not easy for Noah to have married someone like you,” said Oscar straightforwardly.

Stephanie’s face fell as she explained anxiously, “Oscar, please don’t misunderstand. I wasn’t reprimanding Noah. I just don’t want him to set limitations on what I can or cannot eat. Yes, I am pregnant, but I’m not a criminal. Please talk to him for me, Oscar. He’s always so nervous around me as if I were terminally ill.”

Olivia glared at her daughter out of irritation and ordered the housekeepers to bring the dishes out. Amelia questioned, “Mom, where’s Dad?”

“An old friend of his received a piece of ancient jade, and he was curious, so he went to take a look at it. He went out at noon and hasn’t been back since. When I called him, he was arguing with someone over whether the jade is authentic or not and if it was worth the price. Looks like he won’t come back if the argument doesn’t bring any results. So, let’s eat without him. Those old friends of his won’t let him go hungry, so don’t worry about him” uttered Olivia with a smile.

“Looks like Dad has gotten himself some cultured hobbies after he retired from his position. That’s good, though. At least he won’t idle away his time after retirement.” Amelia adjusted her posture of carrying Tony.

Olivia nodded in agreement.

After everyone took their seats at the dining table, Olivia had Tony sit next to him and fed him personally.

Halfway through the meal, Noah stole a glance at Oscar and said with hesitation, “Oscar, I heard from Isabella that an accountant in Clinton Corporations absconded with a large amount of money. Do you need my help? Although the Walker family isn’t as well-developed as the Clinton family over the past few years, we can still lend a hand to resolve such trivial matters.”

“No need. All you have to do is live a good life with Steph and ensure her happiness. That being said, you can’t pamper her and give her everything she wants, or she’ll take things for granted,” replied Oscar.

the bits of food on the corner of her lips before saying gently, “Slow down. No one’s snatching your food.” Subsequently, he turned and spoke to Oscar. “Pampering her is my choice, Oscar. I’m lucky enough that she’s willing to marry me. Moreover, she’s now bearing my child, so I think my life is already perfect. It’s not that I’m pampering her on purpose. It’s just that before she appeared, my life was plain and boring, filled with nothing but work. She changed my life for the
