Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 237

Chapter 237 Vision Turning Black

After reaching a consensus with Jerry, Amelia then headed back to the office in a good mood. When she entered, Oscar kissed her on the cheek and said, “I have a business appointment with someone around noon. Do you want to go with me?”

She glanced at him then asked, “Are you not going back with me?”

“This contract’s more important. I booked a place at night. Let’s go and have a nice candlelit dinner.” He pinched her cheeks, then smiled and continued, “Don’t be upset. If you want to come along, then come.”

She pondered for a moment before replying, “Forget it. I’ve no business in going since you’re going to talk business. I’m not very interested in your projects either. You can go alone, but if you’re meeting a woman, you can only talk business with her. Don’t be too enthusiastic. You already have me now.”

He could not help but laugh and tap her nose. “What a jealous girl. But it is a beautiful woman who’s having lunch with me this time. You can come along if you’re worried. I can admire your beauty then.”

She bared her teeth and made a threatening gesture. “If you dare to mess around, I’ll punish you. You’d better watch out.”

He laughed, for she was too cute. They were already married for four to five years, but only then did he realize that she had such a cute side to her.

Thus, he hugged her and said, “Silly girl. You’re so cute and lovable. What if I can’t ever leave you again?”

Similarly, she could not help but smile. “Then don’t. Let’s stay together forever. When you’re old, I’ll say you’re the ugliest old man around. No other woman will snatch you away then.”

Her words made him feel touched, and he then made a lifetime promise. “Okay.” It was a promise he had never made to her before.

Placing her arms around his waist, she then pulled him tighter into the hug.

They stayed like that for a while, and when they finally separated, Oscar pinched her cheek again. “Come with me. Their Coq Au Vin’s pretty good. You’ll probably like it a lot.”

However, she shook her head. “I’ll pass. Dad and Mom aren’t coming back for lunch today, so I’ll go home to eat and accompany Tony too. Although he’s with Kurt, I can’t bear to leave him for too long either.”

“Okay then. Be careful while driving. Also, I’ll solve the issue with Stephanie. But even if she sends the photos to Dad and Mom, don’t panic. I’ll explain it clearly. As long as I’m here, no one can hurt you.”

Amelia felt warm when she heard him say that. With such a strong person to lean back on, she no longer needed to go through any obstacles alone.

“Sorry for causing you trouble again,” she said.

“If you want to make it up to me, give me a kiss.”

She then tiptoed to kiss him on the cheek.

He smiled contently and said, “That’s all for now. Once you’re fully recovered, I’ll make sure you won’t be able to walk.”

She could not help but flush at his words. Nevertheless, she was still happy inside.

They then took the elevator downstairs before he walked her to her car. He kissed her on the lips, then said, “Drive carefully.”

She nodded. “You should go too. Don’t make your client wait too long. Also, don’t drink too much, and remember to eat something before that, or you’ll get a stomachache.”

He tapped her on the nose and smiled. “If you’re so worried about me, why don’t you come along?”

Yet, her reply was to open the door and get into the driver’s seat of her car.

Subsequently, she rolled down the windows. “I’ll get going. Remember to drink less.”

He nodded. “Drive safely.”

After nodding, she rolled up the windows and slowly drove off. Only when he saw her car drive far away did he get into his car and drive in the opposite direction.

Everything was fine at first when she drove. However, she did not expect her vision to suddenly turn black and only return to normal after a few seconds.

She shook her head hard to clear it, only to realize that she had almost hit the car in front in the few seconds that her vision went black. Fortunately, it did not happen. Afterward, she did not dare to continue driving carelessly and merely found a place to stop. Nevertheless, she felt a little doubtful and scared.

In reality, it was not the first time that her vision went black. If it were only once or twice, she could explain it as lethargy. However, it occurred once every few days, which showed that there was indeed some issue with her eyes.

All of a sudden, she got frightened and recalled what Robert said the last time Olivia got discharged. The after-effects of her accident must have been more serious than she thought. Perhaps her eyes would…
