Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 231

Chapter 231 Unforgettable Nightmare

Hugging Amelia into his embrace, Oscar was heartbroken. “If you’re not happy, let’s leave here. Don’t worry. I’ll explain to Dad and Mom. I’m your husband, and you can trust me. There’s no need to bear it on your own.

Amelia leaned silently on him, with her expression decadent.

At that moment, Oscar felt as though a thousand needles were stabbing through his heart.

“Come on. Smile at me. I’m by your side, and you can rely on me.” Oscar held her chin gently. “My woman should be happy. I’ll never let anyone hurt you.”

A warmth slowly filled up Amelia’s heart, and she began to feel she might have been overreacting with her sorrow. Regardless of what Oscar said was sincere or fake, he had expressed his stand firmly.

“Oscar, I’m fine. Don’t worry.” Amelia finally let out a faint smile.

Right then, she lifted her hands and touched Oscar’s cheek. “You also smile at me, please. You look scary when you don’t smile.”

Oscar stared at her closely, trying to observe if she was truly fine.

A moment later, he touched her nose teasingly. “You must tell me if you don’t feel like living here. Maybe Mom will complain a little, but I bet she would understand our decision too.”

Amelia shook her head firmly. “Let’s stay here for the moment. I’ll tell you if I’m not happy. Don’t worry too much about me. I’m a grown woman who knows how to take care of myself. I promise I won’t hide my feelings from you.”

Oscar was still gazing at her suspiciously.

Amelia displayed a casual smile. “I’m totally fine. I’m not that weak. I was just a little moody, but now I’m fine already.”

She said all this merely because she did not want Oscar to be troubled. She knew that the most difficult choice for a man was to choose between his mother and his wife. Only a foolish woman would put her man in such a situation.

No matter which side Oscar chose, it would hurt the other party hugely.

Oscar lowered his head and left a gentle kiss on Amelia’s forehead while caressing her hair affectionately. “Honey, thanks. I’m grateful that you never left me despite all that had happened.”

At that moment, tears uncontrollably dropped down Amelia’s face. She felt it was the first time that Oscar ever thanked her so sincerely. With that, she felt all the forbearance and grievance that she had gone through these years were worthy. She started to think that Oscar was not only fond of her body, but their spirit had truly got connected.

This is what united in spirit feels like.

Oscar wiped the tears on her face gently. “Silly girl. Why’re you crying?”

Amelia evaded his hand shyly. “It’s nothing. It’s just a mosquito flying into my eyes.”

Oscar did not know how to respond to this, as he fell in more profound love with this sexy and fragile woman.

When a man’s heart started worrying about a woman, he would pay any price to protect her.

It was such an irony that their hearts had gotten closer to each other due to Stephanie’s doing.

However, the closer a relationship, the more vulnerable it became.

Little did Amelia expect that as she finally tasted true love, her marriage with Oscar was about to be put to a test.

As Stephanie had come back to the family, Amelia tried to keep her distance from her. Hence, a few days passed peacefully without any unexpected episode.

It was eight in the morning while Oscar finished his breakfast and headed to work. On the other hand, Olivia and Owen received a call from their friend inviting them to go fishing. With that, they left after the call.

Before leaving, Olivia concernedly reminded, “Stephanie, please listen to Amelia while we’re away. Don’t piss her off. Or else we’ll give you a job after this.”

Stephanie had been behaving extraordinarily well these few days. And she seemed not offended at all by Olivia’s advice. “Mom, don’t worry. I’ll be a good girl and listen to Amelia.”
