Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 583

Chapter 583 Defending Her

Dominic and Melanie had an absurd and unfathomable way of thinking. Although they were fully aware of how they had been unfair to their daughter, the elderly couple still tended to favor their son over her, tossing their daughter’s feelings to the back of their minds.

Oscar had never encountered such selfish parents before. They had never treated Amelia as one of their own and kept deliberately hurting her feelings.

“You’re aware that you haven’t been good to Amelia, huh? In that case, why do you still have the audacity to hurt her time after time again? You’re her mother,” Oscar rebuked.

Melanie fell silent upon hearing that.

Crossing his arms in front of his chest, Oscar continued coldly, “Amelia is not as cruel as you two, and she has always been kind. Despite how heartless and inconsiderate you are toward her, she’s still worried about you. If you find it in yourselves to trust me, then let Spencer stay in the hospital I’ve arranged for him. I’ll see to it that he’s completed cured. However, I have a condition.”

“What condition?”

“Disappear and never show up in front of Amelia again. She’ll be much better off without such an unsympathetic family.” Oscar’s words were direct.

The couple lowered their heads, and no one knew what they were thinking.

“If you agree, I can arrange for Spencer to be admitted into the hospital right away. If you don’t, I’ll still have ways to make sure you and your entire family will never appear in front of Amelia,” Oscar muttered, “As for Eva, if you don’t want me to lay a finger on her, I suggest you treat Amelia better. Don’t you dare bully her.”

Dominic and Melanie exchanged glances with one another. Alas, they had no choice but to compromise.

At three o’clock in the afternoon, Spencer was taken to the hospital as he got off the plane. Oscar had arranged for his subordinates to take Spencer to the hospital, and the latter had to undergo a series of examinations that were ordered by the doctor.

Melanie was anxious and questioned, “Doctor, how is my son?”

“His cirrhosis is still in the early stage and was discovered in time. It hasn’t progressed to liver cancer yet, and as long as he follows the treatment regimen, there’s a ninety percent chance of recovery,” explained the doctor.

Hearing that, Melanie was so relieved that she almost burst into tears of joy.

“Is that true, Doctor? Will my son really recover?” Melanie exclaimed excitedly.

“Rest assured, Mrs. Winters. Your son’s condition isn’t that bad, and as long as he follows the prescribed treatment, he’ll definitely be able to recover in due time.”

“Is that so? Previously, when Mr. Hutton took Spencer to Saspiuburg for a checkup, the doctor diagnosed him with middle-stage cirrhosis. He also said that if Spencer doesn’t receive treatment in a timely manner, his condition will continue to worsen. Moreover, he mentioned that Spencer needs a liver and kidney transplant, and Mr. Hutton even asked his subordinates to look for a suitable donor,” said Melanie.

When the doctor heard what she said, he was in disbelief.

It all sounded rather surreal, and he could not help asking, “Mrs. Winter, are you sure your son met with a doctor and not a fortune teller?”

Melanie cast an anxious glance at Dominic, and the two exchanged glances. A hint of doubt flashed across both their eyes.

“Mrs. Winters, either they deceived you, or they have extremely poor medical knowledge. In fact, they should not be a doctor at all.” The doctor shook his head and changed the subject. “By the way, did you bring Mr. Spencer’s past medical reports along with you today?”

“Medical reports? We weren’t given any. Dr. Hoffman said he’ll arrange all of the medical treatments for us if we ever need any. Since we trust him, we’ve never asked for any medical reports either. Are those documents important?” Melanie flailed her hands about as she spoke.

Upon hearing her explanation, the doctor could not help shaking his head in disapproval. It was not often that he would encounter such ignorant people.

“I suspect you might have been deceived by that Dr. Hoffman you mentioned. You can file a lawsuit for medical fraud, and if he is found guilty, his medical license will be revoked,” suggested the doctor. He paused for a moment and added, “Mr. Clinton is your son-in-law. No one would dare to provoke him.”

However, Dominic and Melanie merely shook their heads.

“Thank you, doctor. If you manage to nurse our son back to health, you’ll be our life savior.”

“Don’t mention it. Mr. Clinton is the one who spent a lot of money hiring us. If there’s someone you need to thank, it should be Mr. Clinton. I dare not take credit for his efforts.”

After a few courteous exchanges, Dominic and Melanie left the doctor’s office.

“Thank you, Oscar. We, naive and ignorant people, would still be in the dark if it weren’t for you.” Dominic looked at Oscar, and a hint of embarrassment flitted across the former’s face. I treated Mr. Hutton as if he was our life savior. Never would I have imagined that our “life savior” would scheme with the doctor to worsen our son’s condition. No one can truly understand the emotions that we’re experiencing right now.

“I’ll have someone prepare some food for you and Mom,” said Oscar.

As soon as his words fell, Oscar turned around and was about to leave.

However, Dominic felt a rush of mixed emotions and he could not help asking, “Oscar, why are you still kind to us even though we’ve been unreasonable and have not treated Amelia kindly?”

“I just don’t want Amelia to be hurt anymore. I won’t feel good if she’s sad, so if you have an ounce of conscience left, please don’t be so cruel toward her. She might look strong on the outside, but she’ll still be saddened by your blatant favoritism.” Oscar did not spare the couple another glance and left the room as soon as he was done speaking.

As he watched Oscar walk away, Dominic fell into deep thought.
