Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 323

Chapter 323 She Felt Bewitched By A Spell

After they left the neighborhood, Oscar and Julian settled on a fancy restaurant. There, they ordered several dishes and scarfed the food down in a frenzy. Since both men were starving, they enjoyed the food to their heart’s content.

Aside from breakfast, they had only had a small snack for lunch before hurrying back to wait in front of the unit. In the end, they still returned empty-handed.

After Julian finished his steak, he felt like his stomach was close to bursting. “Didn’t you say that we were going to drink?”

Oscar shook his head. “I changed my mind. Let’s book a flight back after dinner.”

Julian diverted his focus to Oscar. Although Oscar wasn’t someone who would give up easily, it looked like he had lost his motivation to continue this search.

“Are you all right?” Julian questioned.

“I’m fine.”

“You don’t look like someone who’s fine.”

Seeing Oscar’s sullen mood, he quickly changed the topic. “Oscar, don’t you think that the woman earlier looks like Amelia? At first glance, I even mistook her for Amelia. I only realized the truth after we walked closer. Judging from their similar appearances, do you think she might have something to do with Amelia?”

Oscar spared him a brief glance. “Cassie and Amelia are pretty similar too. Do you think that they have a special relationship with each other?”

Immediately, Julian fell silent. His joke isn’t even remotely funny!

After they finished dinner, Oscar booked two flight tickets that would depart at midnight.

Along the way to the airport, Julian couldn’t help but blurt, “Oscar, I have a feeling that Amelia is in Beshya. Should we get more people to search this area?”

Oscar glanced out of the car window as he spoke. “I’ve already used all of the connections I have in Beshya. Yet, there is no news about her at all. Even I don’t have a single clue about Amelia’s whereabouts.”

“Don’t be so disappointed. You’ve always managed to achieve anything you wanted. This was just a slight mistake.” Julian patted Oscar on the shoulder to comfort him. “If we double our efforts and utilize our connections, we will be able to find Amelia and Tony in no time.”

Yet, Oscar was still disheartened. All this time, he’d kept his frustrations to himself. Unable to hold it back anymore, Oscar asked, “Julian, do you think she’s hiding on purpose?”

“Of course, she’s hiding from you. Why else would she have left? Oh, I didn’t mean it that way.” Julian quickly backtracked when he realized what he had said. “Oscar, I meant that Amelia must have wanted a change of environment. Don’t overthink it, all right?”

Oscar smiled wryly and said nothing else.

Once they arrived at the airport, Oscar strode in with his hands in his pockets. On the other hand, Julian went to print out their tickets.

As they waited in the departure lounge, Julian nudged Oscar. “Oscar, stop being so moody. This isn’t the end of our search. Are you really so miserable that you can’t even talk to me? Cheer up!”

“I’m just trying to think of the places where Amelia could have gone. Julian, where do you think she will go? I even sent my men to patrol Saspiuburg, but they don’t have any news about her. It means that she must still be in Saspiuburg. Where on earth could she be?” Oscar mumbled under his breath.

He’d already contacted everyone he knew to help with Amelia’s search. Despite exhausting all of his resources, it was as if she had vanished into thin air.

“If she wanted to disappear, she must have either escaped into the wilderness or rural villages. There’s a possibility that Amelia fled overseas too. Maybe she is hiding in some villas. Nevertheless, I don’t think we should comb through the wealthy districts, right?”

Julian’s off-handed remark cleared up Oscar’s mind.

Immediately, his eyes lit up with joy. “Julian, you’ve finally contributed something useful to this search!” Oscar exclaimed excitedly.

When Julian heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched. What does he mean? I’ve always been helping him with this investigation!

“What came to your mind?” Julian asked.
