Too Much to Bear, My Love Chapter 206

Cassie was throwing insults at June. His face went livid as he strode forward. Suddenly, Cassie went crazy and shouted out loud when she saw June’s facial expression. “Ah! Don’t come any closer! Otherwise, I will call the police.”

Right at that moment, Elizabeth and Charlie pushed the door opened and rushed into the ward.

“Cassie, are you okay?” Being overprotective, Elizabeth anxiously ran towards her daughter and checked on her from head to toe. “What happened? What’s going on? Are you hurt?”

As if seeing a lifeline, Cassie quickly buried her face in Elizabeth’s arms. “Mom, he’s trying to kill me. You must save me.”

Elizabeth looked towards June. Instinctively, she stood in front of Cassie to protect her.

He looks very familiar… After pondering for a while, Elizabeth remembered who it was. “June?”

June’s menacing expression had already disappeared when the Yards rushed in. Standing before Elizabeth, June appeared gentle and polite.

“Mrs. Yard, I’m June. Nice to meet you.” June bowed courteously to show her respect.

What a well-mannered, charming, and good-looking gentlemen! Doubt flashed across Elizabeth’s eyes. After all, she was still concerned about her daughter. “What are you doing here? Cassie said that you were going to kill here? What exactly is going on?”

June took a look at Cassie in Elizabeth’s arm and replied gently, “Mrs. Yard, that was just a misunderstanding. Cassie and I were a couple when we were in Erihal, but she suddenly decided to end our relationship and left. I’m confused. So, I purposely set my career in Erihal aside and come to Chanaea. I just needed an explanation from her. I can’t believe she would accuse me of killing her. I really have no idea what is going on too.”

The suspicion in Elizabeth’s eyes grew even intense.

“Cassie, is that true?” Elizabeth asked.

Cassie lifted her head. With Elizabeth and Charlie around, she felt safe. Hence, with a fierce glare, she said, “Mom, don’t listen to his nonsense! He is a demon. He tried to strangle me to death like a maniac the moment he entered the ward. If I didn’t struggle to resist him just now, you would probably never get to see your one and only daughter anymore.”

Elizabeth looked at June.

He raised his hands innocently. “Mr. and Mrs. Yard, this is my fault. I shouldn’t be worried about Cassie’s condition. I really didn’t know why she would think it that way. She was gasping heavily for breath just now. I was just checking on her to make sure she was all right. I meant no harm.”

Cassie gritted her teeth in anger. She did not expect June to be that shameless.

“June, you’re such an a**hole! Stop bullshitting here. You were trying to kill me! You—”

“Enough!” Charlie interrupted.

Cassie stared at Charlie in disbelief.

Veins popped up on Charlie’s forehead. He clenched his fists tightly and released. Then, he said weakly, “Cassie, you’ve been throwing tantrums and crying for the entire month. Knock it off. It’s time for you to grow up. Stop wailing like a kid whenever things are not going your way. You’re not only tiring yourself but also your mom and me. Give it a rest, will you?”

Cassie looked at Charlie, feeling wronged.

“Dad, he was really trying to kill me. Don’t you care about your daughter?” Cassie bit her lips and asked aggrievedly.

“You’re not even scared of killing yourself. Are you afraid of being killed by someone else?” Charlie was obviously implying that Cassie staged the whole thing by herself.

Cassie had left the whole family in torment. Her sweet and warm family was about to fall apart. She was giving Charlie a big headache. He couldn’t even keep up with the company’s matters anymore.

Cassie was at a loss for words.

At that point, Elizabeth clearly took Charlie’s side.

“Cassie, you’re a grown woman. You lost your baby, and you attempted suicide. Besides, you’ve been staying in the hospital for over a month. Of course, you can continue staying here if you think it makes you feel comfortable. The only thing I’ll ask of you is to behave yourself. Stop causing a scene all the time. The Yards are a noble family, but now even the hospital has already raised their voice about your issues. You’re really making your father and I look really bad here.”

Elizabeth advised earnestly.

At that moment, Cassie felt like she had been betrayed by everyone. Her family—the people closest to her—had turned their back against her. None of them believed in her words and there was no way she could defend herself.

Right at that moment, June stepped up to play the role of a peacemaker. He was polite and humble, leaving nothing but a good impression.

“Mr. and Mrs. Yard, please don’t be mad. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have acted in haste. I just wanted to know the reason why she broke up with me. I didn’t mean for her to get scolded by both of you. You two are the closest people to her. She might feel hurt to hear you saying those words.”

Subconsciously, Elizabeth took a glance at June. This man whom Cassie once claimed to be useless had developed a more positive impression in her heart.

To Elizabeth, at least June was good-looking and well-mannered, carrying himself with great nobility. Apart from that, he treated elders respectfully. He was definitely so much better as compared to most of the young people nowadays. She even thought that June would probably be a better son-in-law of the Yard family than Oscar.

“June, please have a seat. We can talk things out later.” There was a change in Elizabeth’s attitude towards June.

June was aware that he had gained her trust.

Cassie couldn’t believe her eyes and said angrily, “Mom, he is a murderer! He tried to kill me earlier. How can you let him off?”
