Too Much To Bear My Love

Too Much To Bear, My Love Chapter 798

Chapter 798 A Ruthless Rejection

Eva went over to Amelia’s place at night. After dinner, she played with Tony for a while. When Tony had fallen asleep, she dragged Amelia to the guest room where she was staying. “Tell me honestly, Amelia. Who did James fall in love with?” she demanded.

Amelia plunged into silent contemplation for a moment before she answered, “I’ve indeed seen that girl before. Her name is Nina Yates, and she’s the heiress of the Yates family. She’s stunningly beautiful, even more so than Derrick. In fact, she can be considered a rare beauty. It’s understandable that James fell in love with her at first sight.”

At that, Eva grew a touch irate and griped, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier that he developed feelings for another woman, Amelia? Then, I could’ve taken preventive measures and wouldn’t be in such a passive position right now.”

Staring at her, Amelia advised earnestly, “Eva, the two of you are of two different worlds in the first place. Don’t hound him relentlessly, lest you can’t even be friends in the end. It’s been several months since you pursued him wholeheartedly, but you can tell he has no interest in you at all. Let it go.”

Upset, Eva sulked.

“This wasn’t what you said previously, Amelia. You even helped me with a makeover, so I’m no longer a tomboy. As the saying goes, a persistent pursuer can soften the staunchest heart. As long as I pursue him relentlessly, I believe he’ll accept me one day,” she countered curtly.

After pondering for a while, Amelia changed the subject. “I wish you all the best, then.”

Grabbing her hand, Eva reassured in a soft voice, “Don’t worry about me, Amelia. I know what I’m doing.”

“I really hope so. I don’t concur with women casting even their dignity aside for the sake of pursuing a man.”

“Got it.”

Amelia didn’t try further convincing her otherwise, merely urging Eva to rest well before returning to her bedroom.

The night passed peacefully.

The next day, Eva implored Amelia to accompany her to the hospital on the pretext of a stomachache.

In the car, Amelia questioned once more, “Are you really having a stomachache, Eva?”

“Of course!” Eva asserted.

However, Amelia could see that her complexion was rosy. She appears to be in the pink of health, not at all looking as though she has a stomachache. Oh well, she’s probably fibbing, making up an excuse to go to the hospital to seek James out.

Verily, she was worried that Eva’s painstaking efforts would ultimately end up in vain.

When they arrived at the hospital, Eva got her wish of seeing Nina.

At the sight of James going all out to gain Nina’s favor, she went green with envy. She immediately rushed over and yanked the man to her side as she snarled, “Who is she?”

James hurriedly put distance between them and explained to Nina urgently, “Don’t take it the wrong way, Ms. Yates. She isn’t my girlfriend.”

Following that, Eva’s temper spiked further.

“When am I not your girlfriend, James? So, she’s Nina Yates?” She shot daggers at Nina, radiating hostility.

Eva was astounded by the woman’s beauty, but it was promptly overwhelmed by her envy. A sense of inferiority inexorably flashed through her.

She’s truly too beautiful. If such is my love rival, I don’t have any chances of winning at all.

Conversely, Nina greeted her good-naturedly, “Nice to meet you. I’m Nina Yates. And you are?”

Eva gritted her teeth. James pulled her behind him and whispered, “Stop embarrassing yourself, Eva. I’ll really be mad at you if you scare her.”

His warning had Eva letting out a bark of furious laughter.

Catching sight of Amelia who was approaching, Nina greeted her with a smile, “It’s been a long time, Amelia.”

Amelia inwardly heaved a sigh. My fears have come to pass. Nina is here, so things would be tense between everyone if Eva were to kick up a fuss for real. Besides, Nina is innocent.

Despite the thoughts running through her mind, Amelia inquired gently, “Why are you here at the hospital, Nina?”

“Carter is injured, so I accompanied him to the hospital.” Nina sighed, the smile on her face fading slightly.

“How did he get injured all of a sudden?” Amelia queried in puzzlement.

“He had a fight with June because of the matter concerning Ms. Larson.”

Amelia’s mouth twitched, but she stifled the urge to pursue the question further.

Just then, Carter strolled over after having his hand bandaged. When Amelia saw the size of the bandage, she reckoned that he likely fractured his hand.
