Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 119

Chapter 119 Endless Calls

Oscar frowned but said patiently, “I’ll take a shower and head to the hospital. Be a good girl for me and eat your meals, okay? And don’t cause any trouble for Mrs. Yard.”

“No, Oz. I wanted to eat with you. I won’t eat, if you don’t come,” Cassie said stubbornly.

“Come on, I’ll be there in an hour.”

She hesitated before answering, “Okay, Oz. Be quick, okay? I’ll be waiting.”

Oscar hummed in response before hanging up.

Amelia’s glance dimmed before she calmed down. “You should go, Mr. Clinton. Don’t make Ms. Yard wait. Otherwise, you’d be in big trouble if that beauty cries.”

Oscar looked deeply into her eyes and said with a smile, “Are you jealous?”

Amelia flashed him a smile and answered, “Mr. Clinton, your heart belongs to another woman. Hence, why would you care if I’m jealous or not?”

Oscar lowered his gaze to meet hers and said, “Of course I would.”

Amelia’s eyes glinted and smiled, “You must be joking, Mr. Clinton. If you cared for me, you wouldn’t be rushing to another woman’s side. You should probably go, Mr. Clinton. I don’t wish to take the blame from Ms. Yard again. She may look weak and innocent, but she’s a pro at getting jealous. I really don’t want to go through the same thing over again!”

“She’s not like that.”

Amelia shot him an angry glance, “So are you saying that I’m making things up, Mr. Clinton?”

Oscar loved seeing her jealous. She would become a fiery hot pepper with a hint of stubbornness and proudness whenever she was jealous. It drove him crazy and made him wanted to take care of her.

Oscar lifted his hand to caress her cheek before saying, “I’ve never blamed you regarding Cassie’s incident, Dummy. Besides, I’m pretty sure it was Tiffany who instigated you to visit the hospital. I was going to tell you to stay away from her, but I figured you would disagree. So please stay put at home and don’t go to the hospital, okay?”

“Are you worried that I would cause trouble upon your lover, Mr. Clinton?” Amelia deliberately asked.

“I’ve never said a single word about you ever since we got back from the hospital, woman,” Oscar was unsure how to respond.

“Yet, you blamed my friend. Right?” Amelia continued. She was behaving extremely sensitively due to her pregnancy, especially when she was due in a couple of months. Hence, her emotions were all over the place.

Funny how I’m not mad or impatient with her behavior. Instead, I find it very cute. I guessed this was something interesting to me. I loved watching her lose her temper and getting jealous because of me.

I may be a serious person to others, but I was showing the true side of myself whenever I was with her.

“Your friend made a mistake and I merely reprimanded her. You should know that those who crossed me would usually suffer terrible consequences. Don’t you think you should thank me instead as I let her off easy for your sake?” Oscar said as he licked her ear on purpose.

Amelia blushed and dodged subconsciously. She pushed Oscar’s body away from her and said, “If you don’t leave any sooner, your lover’s going to blow up your phone, Mr. Clinton.”

Oscar looked at her with affection in his eyes unknowingly.

“Come here. I want to hug you before I leave for the hospital in a while.” Oscar opened his arms. Amelia hesitated as she looked at him before walking into his embrace.

Oscar rested his chin on her and said, “ I hope you’d have your eyes only on me, no matter if we get divorced or not. Please remember this, Amelia.”

She gently hit his chest and replied, “Don’t you think you’re a little too greedy?”

“Am I?” Oscar grabbed her hand and bit the back of her hand.

She retracted her hand and responded coldly, “You should leave, Mr. Clinton.”

Oscar’s expression dropped as he pulled her into his arms and asked, “Do you really want me to leave?”

A wave of emotions immediately surged in her heart, “Mr. Clinton, you’ve swaying between two women all this while. You can’t seem to make up your mind, and yet you’re asking for such ridiculous things. If you can’t fulfill my wishes, then don’t give me false hope. You’ll never understand the feeling of despair like I do.”

Oscar’s eyes darkened.

“Don’t overthink things, Amelia.”

Amelia slapped his hand away. “Mr. Clinton, we’ve been married for five years. Yet, you still had no idea what I want. Did you think I would be satisfied with living a luxurious life? A little shopping spree that includes branded clothing and accessories would allow you to control me like an obedient pet?” she said in anger and disappointment.

Oscar frowned as his eyes turned gloomy.

Amelia noticed his expression. Although she was disappointed, she quickly composed herself and smiled, “Apologies, Mr. Clinton, I was too emotional. It’s getting late. I assumed you hadn’t had dinner, right? Allow me to make some pasta for you before you leave.”

Then, she went into the kitchen without taking another glance at him.

Yet, Oscar’s eyes were fixated on her as he gazed at her deeply.

Soon enough, Amelia served him some pasta. It may not have tasted as delicious as Tiffany’s cooking, but it was made with love. Unfortunately, Cassie called again before Oscar could even take a bite.

Oscar felt a little irritated when he saw the display on his phone. If it were the moment when Cassie returned from Erihal, I’d look forward to seeing her. However, she’s beginning to irritate me now. He thought.

He ignored the call as it continued to ring. “Mr. Clinton, your lover’s calling. I think you should hurry to the hospital. Or else, you’re going to have a hard time dealing with her cries,” Amelia said with a hint of sarcasm as she sat on the other side of the sofa.

Oscar rejected the call as he continued eating calmly.

Amelia was surprised yet delighted by his actions.

Gosh, you’re such a loser, Amelia! Why’re you so easily satisfied by his gestures. It could mean nothing, yet you’re so happy that he rejected her call. Amelia said to herself.
