Too Much To Bear My Love

Chapter 879 Sharing Same Sentiments

Linda was shocked to see the woman, who was walking in the middle. Subconsciously, she turned her attention to Oscar before hurrying over to the woman.

“Mrs. Clinton, you’re the person in charge of Royce Technologies, aren’t you? But how did you end up as a representative of a foreign company branch instead?” Linda asked in a surprised tone. Amelia merely smiled at Linda and said, “Long time no see, Linda.”

Linda was even more excited upon hearing Amelia’s response. She looked at Amelia before turning to glance toward Oscar. Her eyes flickered with a strong hint of curiosity and nosiness.

Meanwhile, Isabella coughed petulantly, prompting Linda to glance at her before turning her head again to smile at Amelia awkwardly.

“Mr. Clinton, I’ll bring the people from Royce Technologies to the conference room. They will wait for you inside,” Linda said as she bowed slightly.

Oscar nodded.

Initially, Isabella had something to say as Linda led the others past them, but Oscar interrupted her, “You should go, Isabella. I’ll walk you out. Just wait at Professor Zabinski’s place. I’ll go pick you up when I’m done with the meeting,” he said gently.

Isabella had no choice but to hold her tongue upon hearing his words.

“Why don’t I wait for you in your office, Oscar? I’ll give Professor Zabinski a call instead. If you’re not going to accompany me, I’m not going either,” Isabella said loudly in a sickeningly sweet voice as she linked arms with Oscar.

Naturally, Amelia heard her words as well. She then stopped in her tracks briefly.

“Let’s go inside the conference room, Mrs. Clinton. Mr. Clinton will be with us in a while,” Linda deliberately said to Amelia.

Amelia flashed Linda a smile and followed behind her immediately.

Meanwhile, Isabella huffed furiously as she watched Amelia’s retreating figure.

“You seem to have quite a huge problem with her, Isabella,” Oscar said with a smile as he gently lifted her chin.

“Oscar, she’s a powerful and competent rival in love. I’m afraid that you’ll rekindle your past relationship with her. After all, both of you are still connected through Tony, so I am not all that fond of her.” Isabella did not hide her dislike for Amelia either. Instead of pretending to be cutesy and obedient in front of Oscar, she felt it was better to express her dislike bluntly. Perhaps her straightforward and honest attitude could attract Oscar to see her in a different light.

Oscar chuckled at her words. “Looks like you’re quite jealous and petty.”

Scrunching up her petite nose, Isabella said in a confident yet coquettish voice, “Isn’t this how you prefer me to be, Oscar?”

As expected, Oscar’s lips curled into a smile, and his gaze gradually softened.

Isabella’s prideful and extremely confident attitude overlapped with the woman in his memories. Instinctively, he wanted to dote on someone like her.

“All right. Just wait in my office, then. If you’re feeling bored, you can always shop for things online or watch some dramas and movies. I’ll be back very quickly,” Oscar replied.

Isabella nodded upon hearing his words.

Once Oscar had left, Isabella’s expression turned extremely grim.

She had deliberately mimicked Amelia’s demeanor and attitude. Unexpectedly, Oscar’s expression suddenly became exceptionally gentle and full of affection. Not only that, but he also allowed her to enter his office freely. Even after a year of being his fiancée, Isabella still needed Oscar’s permission to enter the office. It was as if she was an outsider to him.

A sense of annoyance surged within her. Amelia Winters. It’s Amelia again! That woman is my worst nightmare because she is always in my way! No matter how hard I tried to make Oscar forget about Amelia, I was still no match for her.

Furious, she entered his office and sat down on the couch. Suddenly, she caught sight of the computer on the desk out of the corner of her eye. As a glint flashed across her eyes, Isabella hesitated whether she should stand up and satisfy her curiosity.

Eventually, she went over to the table to take a peek and discovered the computer was turned off. As she powered on the computer, Isabella saw that it was password-protected. Thus, she tried to key in her birth date to unlock the computer, but it did not match the actual password. She then keyed in Oscar’s birth date but to no avail. It was only when Isabella entered Amelia’s birth date that the computer was finally unlocked.

Isabella stared at the computer’s desktop wallpaper, which was a photograph of Amelia smiling brightly. Under the sun, Amelia’s smile radiated beautifully, and her bright, white teeth were especially eye-catching, but Isabella found the photograph to be extremely glaring and unpleasant.

When Oscar was working at his desk, Isabella could not even approach him at all, let alone use his work computer to do online shopping, play games, or watch movies and dramas. Hence, she never knew that his desktop wallpaper was Amelia’s portrait. Her heart ached terribly as if it had been gripped tightly by someone.
