Too Much to Bear, My Love Chapter 199

Tiffany’s eyes were gleaming with excitement as she looked at Kurt and asked, “So, what’s the verdict? Are you interested in being the leading character of my next novel?”

Kurt averted his gaze and rejected, “I’m not interested.”

Tiffany pouted, but she didn’t give up. She simply pointed at Amelia and asked, “Amelia is your new employer, right?”

Kurt nodded firmly with a straight face on.

“You will obey her commands, right?”

Kurt nodded once more.

“Do you know that I am her best friend?”

Kurt shook his head.

Tiffany wasn’t angry at his response. She simply pointed out, “Well, now you know. I am her best friend.”

Kurt didn’t respond to that.

Still, Tiffany wasn’t discouraged. She informed him, “Amelia is the one who asked me to write this novel because she wanted to read something in that genre. Isn’t your job, as her bodyguard, to fulfill your employer’s wish?”

As expected, Kurt started thinking about it.

Amelia had no choice but to step up because her name was being used to pressure an innocent man. She said, “Tiff, stop messing with the guy. You’re on the verge of scaring him away.”

Before Tiffany could speak up, Kurt turned to Amelia. He remained serious when he asked, “Ma’am, is that your wish?”

Amelia was startled when Kurt regarded her as “Ma’am.”

“Please, just call me Amelia. There’s no need to be so polite. Also, Tiff was just joking and messing with you earlier,” replied Amelia.

Tiffany simply shrugged.

Kurt turned his attention to Oscar. The latter instructed, “If Tiffany wants to write an action-themed novel, then try your best to accommodate her.”

Kurt nodded and stood up straight at the side.

Tiffany gave Oscar a thumbs up for that. She was basically saying, Good job, thank you for being so cooperative today, Oscar.

“Alright, that’s enough. Amelia is tired, so get out of the room if you guys are going to discuss the plot of the novel,” added Oscar. He was basically chasing everyone out.

Tiffany doesn’t mind being asked to leave. She went to Kurt right away and grinned brightly before saying, “This way, Kurt. Let’s go talk about whether you actually know kung fu.”

Kurt felt helpless, but he couldn’t disobey a direct order, so he exited the room with Tiffany. The second they got out, Tiffany’s excited voice resonated across the space they were in.

“Kurt, you really do know kung fu, don’t you? Please, won’t you teach me? I admired heroes like you the most. Hell, I see how cool you guys are all the time in action movies!”

Hearing their conversation from her bed, all Amelia could do  was grin helplessly.

“Seems like Tiff is going to be a little wild today,” commented Amelia. She honestly didn’t know if she should laugh or cry about the situation.

Oscar gazed at her and held her hand in his palm before he promised, “Don’t worry, I won’t go after Tiffany. I won’t hurt her as long as she didn’t do anything to hurt you.”

Amelia couldn’t help tearing up a little.

Those felt like the most touching words Oscar had ever said to her.

If a man didn’t care about a woman, he would not give a sh*t about her friends. Similarly, if a man was taking care of the woman’s friends and family, it would mean that he truly loved the woman and was committed to her.

“Mr. Clinton…”

Oscar squeezed her hand. His tone was a little displeased when he complained, “Did you forget what I said? Why are you still calling me Mr. Clinton?”

Amelia grinned a little. She still looked sickly pale, but her smile was ever so bright.

Oscar felt like he could drown in that beautiful smile.

The two of them stared at each other for a long while before Oscar tilted his head toward her and kissed her lips.

Amelia became a little breathless after the kiss. Oscar gazed at her and asked in a caring tone, “Are you okay?”

Amelia stared shyly at him. Her pale face had since turned a little red from blushing too much.

Oscar loved the way she looked when she was shy and a little coquettish. He reached out to caress her face before he suddenly declared boldly, “I love you.”

Amelia was completely stunned. Her eyes bulged, and she stared into his eyes in disbelief.

Oscar smiled lovingly before he ran his fingers through her hair.

“Your eyes are big enough as they are. There’s no need for you to make them any bigger,” teased Oscar.

Tears swirled inside Amelia’s eyes. She couldn’t stop them from rolling down her cheeks.

She seemed a little shy when she muttered, “Uh, darling, what did you just say just now? Can you repeat it? I didn’t quite catch that last part.”
