Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 254

Chapter 254 Decided

Amelia invited Tiffany to a rather quaint teahouse with a serene environment. The former got a small, private room ready and was sipping her tea as she waited for her guest to arrive.

Tiffany had her bag with her when she opened the door. She kept her voice high as she asked, “Babe, don’t tell me you like pretentious places like these as well? I’m guessing you didn’t ask me over just to have tea with you, right?”

A small grin crept up on Amelia’s lips. She pointed at the cushion opposite of her and said, “Have a seat. Let’s talk.”

Tiffany put her bag aside before she sat down ungracefully.

Amelia poured Tiffany a cup of tea before saying, “Try it. The tea they offer here is the best. It’s bitter but leaves a sweet aftertaste. I’m sure you will like this tea.”

Tiffany picked the cup up. Influenced by her surroundings, she sipped gracefully before smiling and nodding. After that, she replied, “Yeah, this tea taste pretty good. Still, women like me are too uncouth to appreciate it because I am just too impatient. It seems that I am not destined to be a graceful lady.”

Amelia smiled in response.

Tiffany swirled the tea in the cup while staring strangely at Amelia. The former then asked, “Babe, you didn’t ask me over just to have tea together, did you?”

“Would that be strange? I mean, it has been a while since we hung out together and just chat,” replied Amelia in a nostalgic tone.

Tiffany’s expression turned grim instantly. She demanded, “Babe, just tell me. I know something’s bothering you.”

Amelia shook her head and grinned bitterly before replying, “I guess I really can’t hide anything from you, huh?”

Tiffany raised her brows. She was rather proud of seeing through her and was glad to hear that.

She poured herself a cup of tea after that and sipped some tea while relaxing.

Amelia shared, “Tiff, I want to divorce Oscar.”

Tiffany spat out the tea in the most uncouth and ugly way.

She coughed for quite some time before she wiped the tea off her lips with the back of her hands. Her voice was filled with disbelief when she asked, “Uh, Babe, what did you just say?”

Amelia shifted her gaze down to hide the tears and the sorrows away. She sounded calm when she said, “I’ve thought things through, Tiff. I want to get a divorce.”

“But why? Don’t you love him dearly? Why would you want to get a divorce? The two of you have gone through so much before being together. I have seen how good he is to you too, so why do you want to get a divorce?” blurted Tiffany in one go. She thought of something after that, and a furious expression showed up on her face. She demanded, “Babe, tell me the truth. Did he cheat on you? Perhaps, all the lovey-dovey things he has been doing for you are just lies?”

Amelia shook her head before answering, “He’s great to me, Tiff. He has given me everything I wanted. In fact, he is too nice to me. That is why I have to get a divorce.” Amelia couldn’t accept how perfect he was, and she worried that she’d lose herself in that happiness. She also worried that her self-esteem would deteriorate after she lost her eyesight. His kindness would likely turn her into a weak woman who refused to face reality, and that was not what Amelia wanted.

Tiffany, however, didn’t understand what she meant.

“Babe, are you suffering from postpartum depression or something? Why are you talking nonsense now?” asked Tiffany.

Amelia really hoped that was the case, but she meant every word she said.

“Tiff, I am being serious here.”

“Okay, then tell me why you want to do this.”

“I am almost blind. In fact, I can barely make out anything that is over five meters away now. My eyesight is getting poorer with each passing day, and I want to get a divorce before I go blind,” replied Amelia. She used both hands to hold her cup of tea and was staring at her own reflection as she spoke in a calm tone.

Tiffany reached out to hold Amelia’s hand. The former cooed, “Calm down, Babe. I’m sure there is someone out there who can fix your eyes. The technology in the medical field is extremely advanced. Even if you end up going blind, you will still regain your eyesight once they find a suitable donor. You don’t need to get a divorce because of that. You love him, don’t you? Are you sure you’ll be alright leaving him just like that?”

Amelia grinned bitterly.

It’s not that easy to find a suitable donor. If it is, most blind people on Earth would’ve already regained their eyesight.

“Tiff, I’ve thought things through before making this decision,” insisted Amelia.

Tiffany retracted her hand and advised, “Babe, please take some more time to think about this. Also, I don’t think Oscar will sign the divorce papers. Asking him for a divorce will just end up hurting both of you.”

Amelia poured herself a cup of tea before downing it in one go.

After that, she placed the cup aside and said, “He’ll sign the papers.”

Amelia gave Tiffany a cliff note version of the plan after that.

When Tiffany heard all that, her eyes bulged, and she stared at Amelia as though she was a lunatic.

“Babe, I think you really have gone nuts. Cassie is your love rival, and I can’t believe you’re going to push your own husband, Oscar, to her. Is your brain taking a break or something?” growled Tiffany angrily. “Your eyes are not working well now, but you haven’t gone blind yet, right? Why are you already wallowing in self-pity? Dang, I think your brain really has gone on strike and turned you into a dummy. Do you really think Oscar would appreciate everything you intend to do for him?”

The more Tiffany spoke, the angrier she became that her chest was heaving.
