Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 222

Chapter 222 Explaining Himself

As soon as Oscar’s plane touched down, he hopped into the car and asked the chauffeur to take him to the neighborhood where Tiffany was staying.

He saw Tiffany holding a bag of trash and throwing it away when he got out of the car. Oscar was quick and ran a little to reach Tiffany. She saw him there, but her smile turned upside down immediately after. She didn’t even bother looking at him before she turned around and walked in the other direction.

Oscar reached out and grabbed her before getting right to the point. He asked, “Tiffany, where is Amelia?”

Tiffany glared over icily. “Look who’s here. It’s Mr. Clinton. I was wondering who it was. So, you still care about Amelia, huh?”

Oscar frowned and replied, “Amelia is my wife. Why would I not care about her? Also, why didn’t she pick up my calls?”

Tiffany had a skin-deep grin on before she taunted, “Mr. Clinton, are you sure you called her?”

Oscar frowned so much that he could catch a fly between his brows.

He knew that there had to be some misunderstandings.

“I called Amelia countless times, but she never picked up. At first, I wanted to fly back immediately, but I needed to stay overseas and manage the company. I can’t let all the employees of Clinton Corporations lose their jobs and go hungry over my personal issues,” explained Oscar with a grouchy expression.

Tiffany seemed to have realized that there was a misunderstanding.

She took a deep breath and calmed down before complaining, “What the hell is that supposed to mean, Mr. Clinton? You were overseas? What happened to Clinton Corporations? Why haven’t any of the Clintons come to visit Amelia and Tony over the past two weeks? Every single one of you claimed that she is a member of your family and that Tony is your heir. Yet, you guys heartlessly ignored her after she left the Clintons’ family home. Seriously, are you guys heartless? Your baby sister almost killed Amelia and her baby, and none of you bothered to do anything about it. How can she not feel abandoned under those circumstances?”

Oscar frowned and answered, “I didn’t abandon Amelia. I just got back from Pillere and had my people drive me directly from the airport. Also, I kept calling Amelia, but she never picked up. I ended up calling Kurt, and he said that she was okay. I sent someone else over to check up on her as well, and they claimed that she was fine as well. That was the only reason why I could focus on my work these past two weeks.”

Tiffany stared at him in suspicion. “Really?”

“Why would I lie to you?” demanded Oscar.

Tiffany glared over angrily before she replied, “Fine, I will trust you this one time. All that matters is whether Amelia will forgive you. You lost touch over the past two weeks, and that knucklehead Kurt never mentioned anything about you calling. From our perspective, you went missing for two weeks, and Amelia couldn’t eat well or sleep right because of that. She lost so much weight and her illness acted up. I accompanied her to the hospital two days ago, and the doctor said that she has depression. If this goes on, her body will not be able to heal well.”

Oscar was heartbroken as he asked, “Is she upstairs now?”

Tiffany shook her head.

“I asked someone to accompany her to the supermarket. They will probably be back soon,” answered Tiffany. She glared at Oscar in displeasure before complaining, “Oscar Clinton, please don’t go missing if you really care about Amelia. She only left the family home in a fit of anger, and that was only because you people condoned that murderer, Stephanie. All she wanted was a heartfelt apology from you guys. Seriously, you Clintons are too much. It’s been two weeks, but you never bothered calling or stopping by to visit Amelia or Tony. It was as if you guys fell off the face of the Earth, and you acted as if Amelia turned into a nobody once she left the compound. I knew it. Your entire family is just a bunch of rich brats who grew up with a silver spoon. I am so done with your kind.”

Oscar remained quiet.

Still, Tiffany was angry.

She warned, “Oscar Clinton, don’t blame me for being straightforward and harsh, but Amelia is a great woman, and she loves you. Please don’t take advantage of that love and hurt her recklessly. You were gone for two weeks, and she hadn’t been able to sleep or eat well this entire time. I would go at you with a blade if that act wouldn’t break her heart. Seriously, karma will come for you if you keep hurting her like this. The day will come when she falls out of love with you, and you will learn that what you lost is unconditional love. You would better buck up, or you will regret it.”

All Tiffany wanted was for Oscar to pay more attention to Amelia. He shouldn’t make this marriage look like a game to him.

Oscar frowned and was deep in thoughts.

“I will talk to Amelia in person about this, and I will explain everything,” promised Oscar in his deep voice.

Tiffany crossed her arms and gestured with her lips before saying, “The person you want to talk to is right behind you, so you better explain yourself well.”

Oscar turned around and saw that Amelia was heading over with a middle-aged woman.

At first, the duo was chatting away cheerfully, but Amelia’s smile slowly faltered when she saw Oscar there. She stopped walking when she was about three meters away from him.
