Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 444

Chapter 444 Inappropriate Words

When Oscar was driving, he received a call from Amelia and picked it up.

“Oscar, how was the talk with Mom? Did both of you argue?” asked Amelia worriedly through the phone.

“Silly, why are you so worried? Why would I argue with my mom? Don’t overthink and focus on your work. I’ll bring you and Tony out for dinner tonight,” reassured Oscar with a faint smile, despite his grim expression.

“Did both of you really not argue?” It was evident that Amelia was doubtful. She had been worried about this for a few hours in the office, afraid that Oscar would quarrel with Olivia for her sake. This was not what she hoped for.

“I won’t fight with Mom. Don’t worry!”

Amelia heaved a sigh of relief.

“That’s great, then. While I was working, I was worried that Mom will put you in a difficult position on purpose. Since you said that she didn’t, I’m relieved. Are you still there, or are you coming back?”

“I’m driving now. I’m going to the office to attend a meeting later.”

“Be careful while driving! After your meeting, remember to have your lunch and don’t starve yourself, okay?”

“Yes, ma’am. I will never dare to go against your wishes.”

Amelia chuckled in amusement.

“I’ll hang up soon. I’m calling you in the toilet now. After I leave, I still have to photocopy some documents. Talk to you later!”

This time, Oscar’s expression turned gloomy. “Why are you photocopying them? Aren’t the other employees supposed to do such menial jobs?”

Amelia burst out laughing. “Have you forgotten? I’m a newbie who has just started work for two days! I’m supposed to handle these menial jobs. Don’t you worry about it since it’s just a trivial matter.”

“No way! You’re my wife. I don’t even bear to let you do such laborious tasks, but a measly advertising company dares to order your around! I’m going to acquire it.”

“Stop messing around, Oscar. I just want to gain more experience instead of just lazing at home. It isn’t hard to photocopy a few documents anyway. Don’t be rash! Otherwise, I’ll actually get mad.” Amelia coaxed, “I’ll give you a kiss. Stop being angry, okay?”

He could hear the sound of a kiss coming through the phone.

Only then did the hardened look on his face fade gradually.

“I really don’t know what to do with you,” said Oscar exasperatedly.

“Don’t you love me because I’m like this? Okay, I’ll stop talking to you. I’ll hang up now! Talk to you tonight.” With that, Amelia ended the call.

Staring at the dark screen, Oscar’s expression turned grim as he called Hugo.

When Hugo picked up the call, he instructed, “Hugo, find out the phone number of Amelia’s company’s CEO. Then, arrange a meeting with him.”

“Yes, Boss,” answered Hugo.

After ending the call, Oscar drove straight to his office.

When he arrived at the entrance, Hugo called.

“Boss, I’ve already sent you his number. However, he’s currently overseas for a business trip and will only return during the weekends,” reported Hugo.

“Okay. I’ll hang up now.” Oscar ended the call and clicked on Hugo’s message.

He called the number in it. The first call did not go through, but the second one eventually did.

“Hello?” A deep and masculine voice sounded.

“I’m Oscar Clinton from the Clinton Corporations. Is it convenient for you to talk now?” asked Oscar directly.

“Mr. Clinton?” It was obvious that the person did not believe him. “Are you joking with me? A small company like ours doesn’t have any business transactions with the Clinton Corporations. To be exact, a large company like the Clinton Corporations won’t even be interested in us! How is it possible that the CEO of the Clinton Corporations is calling me? I don’t care where you got my number from, but I’ll not let this prank slide a second time.”
