Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 317

Chapter 317 Constant Reminder

After working on the manuscript overnight, Tiffany fell asleep at six in the morning. Hence, Amelia did not wake her when she woke up. She carefully got out of bed and took the cane beside her bed. It was a cane specially made for blind people.

With the help of the cane, Amelia arrived at the bathroom. After some time, she was finally able to walk up to the sink and find her toothbrush. Then, she washed her face and brushed her teeth.

After washing up in the bathroom, Amelia walked out and called out to Tiffany softly. Since there was no response, she walked slowly to the door and opened it before walking out of the guest room.

Initially, she wanted to walk to the nursery to see Tony and Kurt, but she did not want to wake them. Hence, she turned around and walked down the stairs.

While holding the cane, she accidentally missed a step and fell down the stairs.

The maids who were working downstairs were shocked to see Amelia tumbling down the stairs. They immediately surrounded her. Outside, a maid informed Jeremy, who was trimming the tree branches in the yard, about Amelia.

“Gosh. What’s wrong? Are you all right?” Jeremy hurriedly ran up to Amelia, who was already sitting on a chair with the help of the maids.

Amelia was fortunate this time. She fell down the stairs from the first floor, but she only had some minor scrapes on her arms.

Although she was still in shock, she forced a smile. “I’m fine, Jeremy. Don’t worry. Also, don’t tell Tiff that I fell down. I don’t want her to worry.”

After living with Amelia for two months, Jeremy knew that she was a kind woman. Her beautiful appearance matched her kind personality very well. Although she had become blind, she never once complained about her grief. She had always been strong. Jeremy thought of her as a perfect woman.

“Don’t worry. I won’t tell her. But, are you really okay? Should I call the doctor over to give you a once over?” Jeremy questioned worriedly.

Amelia shook her head as she replied, “Jeremy, I’m fine. There’s no need to trouble the doctor.” Ever since she was blind, she tried to avoid troubling others. She would minimize all the issues. Since she was a prideful woman, she would not let her blind self appear to be useless in front of others.

Amelia’s arms were actually hurting from the fall. She reckoned that she was bleeding, but no one else could see her injuries because she was dressed in a long sleeves dress.

“Really? You should tell us if you’re injured. Mr. Hisson reminded us to take care of you before he left. He even said that there’s a clinic in the villa in case of any emergencies,” Jeremy said.

Amelia shook her head and said, “There’s no need for that. I’ll feel guilty. I…”

Jeremy chuckled and explained, “Amelia, there’s no need for you to feel guilty. This clinic has long been planned to be built in the villa. This villa is huge, and there are many maids working here. Not to mention this place is located quite far from the city. If the maids got sick, it’s quite troublesome for them to visit the hospital. That’s why we need a clinic here. We’ll need around five doctors with impressive medical skills to work here too. I’ve talked about it with Mr. Hisson before. It just so happens that your condition has sped up the progress. In fact, all the maids would be grateful for you.”

Amelia thought about it and said, “Jeremy, tell Derrick that I’m thankful for his kind thoughts.”

Jeremy laughed and said, “Sure. I’ll tell Mr. Hisson. You should have your breakfast. Do you want me to wake the two of them?”

Amelia shook her head. “No. Tiff spent the entire night writing manuscript. She only fell asleep in the morning. Kurt got back in the wee hours, too. They must be exhausted, so just let them sleep in. They’ll come down for breakfast later.”

“All right. I’ll get the maid to get you your breakfast.” Jeremy ordered the maid to serve the breakfast. After giving it some thought, he said, “Amelia, I think we should let assign a personal maid to take care of you. It’s dangerous for you to walk around now. It’ll be bad if you fall from the stairs again. Would you consider it? It’s for your own good.”

Amelia’s smile faltered.

“Amelia, I’m not forcing you. I just want you to be safe. If a maid takes care of you, Tiffany can work more efficiently. Also, Kurt can focus on taking care of Tony as well as working on his missions. What do you think?” Jeremy explained logically.

Amelia held her silence.

“Amelia, don’t blame me for saying this, but Mr. Hisson and Tiffany just got into a relationship. They’re supposed to be madly in love now. Yet, both of them can’t see each other much, and Tiffany has to spend most of her time on you. I feel bad for Mr. Hisson,” Jeremy said.

Amelia was stunned. In the end, she still caused trouble for others because she was blind.
