Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 390

Chapter 390 Tony Is So Cute

After reaching Anglandur, Oscar helped Amelia out of the airport to meet James, who had already been waiting for them outside.

James was dressed in a rather flashy manner that day in a floral button-up and patterned jeans with a pair of black-rimmed glasses to boot.

James approached them joyfully as they arrived. “Hi! Long time no see.”

Amelia followed the sound of his voice and turned toward him. “Long time no see, James. How have the last two years been?”

“Not too well, honestly. Your husband has been working me to the bone to look for suitable corneas for you! Still, my hard work finally paid off and I managed to find them within two years. Also, don’t even think about thanking me, okay? I’m supposed to do all this, and your husband has been very generous as well. He even opened up a private hospital for me, of which I’m about to become the director of very soon,” James said breezily.

Amelia looked up at Oscar. She may have been blind, but it was almost as if she was still staring at him regardless.

Oscar interlocked his fingers with Amelia’s tightly and looked at James, indicating for him to keep quiet.

James shrugged and said, “Anyway, Amelia, I’ve prepared a place for all of you to stay. Let’s go. You guys must be exhausted after traveling for so long, so you can rest for a few days. Once the patient passes away, we can remove their corneas and conduct the surgery for you.”

The five of them went into the car. James was driving while Derrick sat in the passenger seat and the other three sat in the backseat.

Amelia said, “James, I heard from Oscar that a twenty-year-old young man was the one who donated his corneas to me. How has he been?”

As he drove, James explained, “He’s been suffering from stage 4 leukemia and only has a few days left. The hospital has already notified his loved ones of his imminent passing, and once that happens I will do your surgery. However, when his parents heard that you were coming to Anglandur, they requested to meet the woman for whom their son donated his corneas. Would you be willing to do that?”

Amelia hadn’t even said anything when Oscar spoke up, mildly annoyed. “James, why did you tell them about Amelia? Didn’t I tell you to keep her identity under wraps?”

James tapped the steering wheel and said, “Oscar, they only have one son. All they wanted was to know who would take over their son’s eyes after he passed. It means a lot to them.”

Amelia held Oscar’s hand tightly and absentmindedly traced shapes on his palm. “James, I’m okay with meeting them, so you can organize that for us.”

Since Amelia herself was okay with it, Oscar didn’t have anything else to say.

James drove back to his mansion and parked the car. Like a gentleman, he opened the car doors for them and helped Oscar hold onto Amelia as she walked out. “Careful, Amelia, the door is over here.”

After getting off the car, Amelia nodded politely toward him. “Thanks, James.”

Once they entered the house, the butler led a few maids to take the luggage from the three men so that they could put them into the guest rooms.

He then turned to James and said, “Master, the food is all ready. Would you like to eat now or would the guests prefer to take a hot shower first before the meal?”

James looked at the two ladies and asked, “Do you guys want to take a shower now?”

“No, it’s fine,” both of them said in unison.

“Then we can start eating now,” James said to his butler.

The butler directed the maids to place the dishes on the table. Amelia and the others were feeling especially hungry at the sight of so much comfort food in the middle of Anglandur.

Oscar kept taking food for Amelia. “Eat as much as you want. I specifically asked James to prepare your favorites.”

Amelia may not have been able to see, but she could tell by the taste of the food that Oscar truly had put in the effort for her to be happy.

“You should eat too, Oscar. I’ll ask for more food later if I’m still hungry.” Amelia finally spoke up after she kept hearing and feeling Oscar placing more food onto her plate.

“Okay.” Even though Oscar agreed, he still continued helping Amelia out at every available second.

James couldn’t help but tease him a little. “Oscar, you’re practically her lapdog at this point. I’ve never seen you be this attentive toward any other woman before. I could have never imagined that this day would come.”

Oscar merely glanced at him and stayed silent.

They finished their meal relatively peacefully and the four visitors retreated to their rooms so they could take a quick nap.
