Too Much To Bear My Love

Chapter 871 Cannot Let Go

Oscar gave a curt nod. Seeing his response, Isabella could finally relax her tensed body. She held Oscar’s arm and gave the other elders a nod before stalking away like a proud peacock.

“Look how impatient, rude, and smug she is. I don’t understand what Oscar sees in her,” Rhonda commented unhappily.

Amelia listened to her comment and discovered one thing—Isabella had managed to make everyone despise her as she took advantage of the fact that Oscar adored her and was rude to most of the upper-class families.

Initially, she assumed Isabella’s social skills would improve as a year passed, but the latter was so spoiled she couldn’t even flatter someone else.

After chatting briefly with Rhonda, Amelia led Tiffany to the other end of the hall. She didn’t show up before Isabella to upset her. “Won’t you provoke Isabella?” Tiffany asked.

“No need. I found out that Oscar doesn’t hate me as much as I expected, so that shall suffice. I’ll go and see him after the charity gala ends.” Amelia’s lips curled into a smile. She seemed to be in a good mood after discovering that Oscar didn’t hate her. That is a good start.

“Don’t tell me that makes you happy, Amelia. That’s hardly anything. I think you should continue striking while the iron is hot by showing your authority. I saw how Oscar’s eyes lit up when he saw you earlier,” Tiffany told her. She was pleased to see Oscar’s response earlier. It is annoying to see Isabella using despicable tricks to steal someone else’s husband but pretending to be the victim by accusing the real victim. Doesn’t she feel ashamed? Hmph! Her shamelessness knows no bound.

Amelia shot Tiffany a bemused look, and the latter shrugged in response.

Coincidentally, Amelia spotted Derrick coming in through the entrance.

A smirk played on her lips as she gave Tiffany a nudge.

“Tiff, your trouble is here,” she said purposely.

Tiffany gave her a strange look.

Seeing her response, Amelia pursed her lips in Derrick’s direction. Tiffany turned to look at the entrance and spotted Derrick. The smile on her lips froze, and she seemed awkward.
