Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 378

Chapter 378 Reunited After Two Years

Ever since a compatible cornea was found for Amelia, time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, half a year went by. James sent word from Anglandur that the young donor’s condition had worsened and only had a few days left. Hence, he instructed Oscar to take Amelia there at once. With all the equipment in place, the operation to transplant the cornea would commence upon Amelia’s arrival.

Together with Hugo, Oscar drove to the airport and waited for the flight at the terminal.

Meanwhile, Derrick who had been camping out at the airport walked up to Oscar. He suggested with a smile, “Mr. Clinton, I hope you don’t mind taking another person with you to Beshya. While you pick up your lady, I hope to pick up mine. Since mine has accompanied yours for the last two years, I think it’s time for her to return to my side.”

Oscar pointed to the seat next to him. “Have a seat.”

After Derrick sat down, both of them didn’t talk to each other. It wasn’t until they had their tickets checked during boarding that they realized they were seated next to each other.

 

When Oscar saw Derrick sitting beside him, his gaze sharpened. “Derrick, what are you up to?”

Shrugging, Derrick grinned. “I’m just happy that you can meet your ex-wife again while I’ll be reunited with my woman. Isn’t this a win-win situation?”

 

“Derrick, regardless of what you plan to do. I hope that you will not interfere in my affairs with Amelia. We will resolve it ourselves,” Oscar warned.

Derrick smiled. “Mr. Clinton, I believe we share the same goal. Aren’t we just looking to be with the woman we love?”

After shooting him a glance, Oscar shut his eyes.

Both of them spent the rest of the flight in silence.

After disembarking, Oscar prepared to get into a car that Hugo had arranged for him. As for Derrick, he too had a car prepared in advance. Before getting in, Derrick remarked, “Mr. Clinton, let’s see who will reach there first.” The moment he finished, both of them got into their respective cars.

Oscar ordered, “Drive.”

As the driver drove dutifully, it took them an hour and a half to reach the neighborhood where Amelia was staying in.

After coming to a stop, the driver informed, “Mr. Clinton, we have arrived.”

Opening his eyes, Oscar looked out the window. Staring at the same neighborhood he visited two years ago, he felt a surreal sensation.

Back then, he had run into a lady that looked like Amelia. At that moment, he had thought that luck had brought his wife back to him. But in the end, it was nothing more than a misunderstanding. It wasn’t until a year and a half later that he realized that he had missed her.

Putting his hand on his chest, Oscar could feel the pounding of his heart where a flurry of mixed emotions flooded into it. He felt both anxious and excited. But most importantly, he was filled with anticipation to be able to see Amelia again.

Silly gal, I’m here now. This time, I will never let you slip out of my hands again.

“Mr. Clinton, are you getting off?” the driver asked.

However, Oscar simply continued observing the neighborhood. It wasn’t until an unforgettable silhouette appeared that he opened the door and dashed out.

Given that he had made prior arrangements with the neighborhood security guards, none of them got in his way.

When he was just a few steps away from her, he came to a halt. His razor-sharp gaze turned into a gentle look in a flash. Staring at her longingly, he realized she hadn’t changed at all during the two years they were apart.

The moment Tiffany saw Oscar appear out of nowhere, she was filled with surprise. Putting a finger to her lips to shush him, she turned to Amelia and said, “Babe, I suddenly remembered that I left my phone upstairs. Can you wait here for me while I go get it?”

Amelia replied with a smile, “Go on. I’ll be here.”

“Are you sure you’ll be fine alone?”

“Just go. I promise I won’t go anywhere.”

“All right, I’ll be back in a jiffy.” Just as she spoke, she looked in Oscar’s direction and mouthed the words, “Oscar, don’t frighten her.”

With that, Tiffany walked away to give them some privacy.
