Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 256

Chapter 256 A Romantic Dinner

Oscar bowed like the perfect gentleman and said, “This way, my beautiful lady.”Amelia put her hand on his, and Oscar kissed the back of her hand. After that, he pulled her into his arms and teased her by biting her ear a little before seductively saying, “You are too beautiful. I am so tempted to lock you up so that no other man can witness your beauty. Really, you are so stunning that I am feeling a little threatened.”

Amelia giggled and rested in his arms.

Perhaps it was because she knew that they would soon be separated, but Amelia was less passive that day. She would not let any opportunity to stay close to Oscar slip through her fingers. She kept enjoying his masculine scent and lost herself in it.

Amelia played with Oscar’s chest a little as she said, “I miss you too, Darling.”

When Oscar heard that, his entire body trembled as though he had felt an electric shock. His gaze instantly filled with lust, and it looked as if he was a hungry monster that had finally found its prey.

Oscar carried Amelia like she were a princess and freed up one hand to open the door to his car. He carefully placed her down before entering the car himself. As he entered, he closed the door behind him.

Oscar’s tall figure hovered over Amelia, and his gaze was stuck on her. He bent down and kissed Amelia at the very next second.

Just as Amelia was losing her mind in the lust that Oscar had ignited, he suddenly stopped kissing her and slowly put some distance between them. He kept his eyes on Amelia, who was lost in love at the time.

When Oscar got up, Amelia instantly felt empty. Her mind slowly came back around, and she stared at Oscar in confusion.

Oscar tapped her nose lovingly and said, “Let’s have dinner for now. I don’t want you to go hungry.”

Amelia blushed a little upon hearing that.

The more the two of them got to know each other, the more Amelia realize that Oscar was not actually a strict person. He was only putting on a show for the public. When he was with her, he could flirt and get her to blush hard as her heart thumped fast. Thank the heavens he doesn’t have the habit of flirting with other women. If he does, there will be countless admirers, and who knows how much mess he’ll have to clean up?

Amelia reached out and continued caressing his chest. She was seducing him deliberately and asked, “Darling, are you sure you can hold it in for so long?”

Oscar was quick to grab Amelia’s hand. He reminded, “Don’t play with fire. The doctor said that it’s best if you don’t go hungry. I don’t want you to get sick, so behave.”

Amelia’s heart stirred for a moment there. She would never have guessed that Oscar had suppressed his lust just because he was worried about her physical wellbeing.

If a man’s focus was on a woman’s health, that would mean that he truly loved her.

Amelia was so touched that she felt like crying. It wouldn’t last long. Soon, she would have to sever her relationship with a man who loved her dearly.

How cruel can destiny be? Why am I being dealt with cards like these just when I am blessed with a good life?.

Oscar’s warm hand gently wiped the tears off her face. He asked, “What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly crying? Was I too aggressive earlier when I kiss you?”

Amelia regained her composure. She touched her face and realized that she was indeed crying.

She looked into Oscar’s eyes and came up with an excuse. After that, she complained, “This is all your fault for being too nice to me. It feels surreal, and I start overthinking. You know how women love to analyze everything. I am just worried that you won’t treat me as nicely in the future.”

Oscar grinned exasperatedly. In a loving tone, he replied, “Oh my, you think too much. I have a master plan, you know? I’m being nice to you to spoil you to the point where you behave so ridiculously that no other man can stand you. That way, you’ll be mine forever. Come now, sit tight. We’ll go have dinner now.”

Oscar got out of the car and circled around to get to the driver’s seat. Amelia, on the other hand, went to the passenger’s seat.

She would never have guessed it, but their dinner was taking place on an enormous private yacht. The yacht had pearl beaded curtains, a miniature kitchen, a variety of food, and a sofa with rose petals spread on it. Everything looked magical, and it was beyond any woman’s romantic fantasy.

When Amelia saw that, her jaw dropped a little. The surprise in her eyes was obvious.

With sentimental music playing in the background, everything was exquisite, Amelia was mesmerized and completely lost herself in the ambiance.

That evening was destined to be a memorable one.

Unfortunately, the happier she was, the more sorrowful she would be when she got a divorce.

Oscar pulled up a chair. Like a gentleman, he offered, “Please take a seat, my lady.”

Amelia sat down. A server showed up soon after with a cart. He handed Oscar a bouquet of eleven red roses and bowed down before asking, “Mr. Clinton, shall I serve the dishes now?”

“Yes, please.”

The server nodded and pushed the cart away. It didn’t take long before a few more servers showed up to serve the dishes.

They placed eight exquisite dishes for sampling, two bowls of soup, and a bottle of premium red wine. They also set two wine glasses down.

Oscar waved his hand and instructed, “Everyone can leave now.”

The servers were all well-trained, so they left politely and quickly.

Oscar got off his chair and got down on one knee in front of Amelia. He seemed a little nervous and excited when he said, “Honey, the florist told me that a bouquet of eleven red roses signifies a lifetime of love, and I promise that you will be my one and only love for the rest of my life.”

Amelia put one hand over her lips. She didn’t expect Oscar to be that romantic.
