Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 584

Chapter 584 Hospital Visit

Eva bought some bottles of beer and some skewers to visit.

Amelia opened the door for her and said smilingly, “Come in.”

After entering, Eva asked, “Amelia, where are Oscar and Tony?”

“He went to pick Tony up. He’ll probably be back in one or two hours,” Amelia answered.

Eva gestured to the bag of food she had brought over, saying, “Amelia, I bought beer and skewers. Have some with me. I saw you eating like this when you were still in the Winters residence. Would you like to reminiscence while Oscar is not home?”

Amelia nodded and said with a chuckle, “All right. Oscar doesn’t restrict me from eating junk food. It’s okay if I have some once in a while.”

After laying out the beer and skewers, Eva opened two bottles, passed one to Amelia, and said, “Amelia, cheers.”

Amelia lifted her can and toasted with her.

Eva took a sip and uttered, “Uncle Dominic, Aunt Melanie, and Spencer are here in Tayhaven. Aren’t you going to meet them?”

Amelia smiled bitterly and responded, “I don’t think they want to see me.”

Eva glanced at her and said, “Amelia, do you blame Uncle Dominic and Aunt Melanie?”

Amelia responded by taking a big gulp of beer and swallowing it. The bitterness of the beer lingered in her mouth.

It was as if Eva was answering on her behalf by continuing, “I’m being silly for asking you such a dumb question. Uncle Dominic and Aunt Melanie mistreated you. It wouldn’t make sense if you didn’t blame them. I would’ve cut all ties with them early on if it was me. Also, I would never help Spencer settle his hospital admission.”

“Spencer is in the hospital?”

Eva was shocked and asked, “Didn’t you know, Amelia?”

Amelia shook her head.

“I think Oscar was probably the one who helped him with the hospital admission. Oscar is very good to you. He’s the heir to Clinton Corporations, but he secretly helped you with many things. I’m envious,” said Eva. She was even more upset when she recalled that she had courted James for such a long time, but he never reciprocated. “Amelia, you’re so lucky. The people who like you are all outstanding. On the other hand, I put down my pride and went after James, but he avoided me like the plague. Although I don’t mind, I’m still uncomfortable after being rejected so many times,” Eva continued.

Amelia watched her finish a bottle of beer and open another one.

“What happened to you and James?” she asked.

“Nothing’s changed. He doesn’t like me,” Eva replied.

“Do you plan on giving up?”

“Of course not. It’s not easy to meet a guy who I fell in love with at first sight. How would I know if I never tried? I’ll definitely succeed in courting James.”

Amelia turned and looked at her. “Eva, have you ever thought that maybe you and James belong in different worlds?”

“What different worlds? We are all from Earth, but he appears to be smarter than me. I look like a delinquent who likes to cause trouble, but I can dye my hair back if he doesn’t like how I look now.”

“You won’t be you if you change too much.”

Eva was at a loss for words.

She lowered her head, downed the beer in one go, lifted her hand to wipe her mouth, and said, “Amelia, let’s not talk about my relationship issues. Tell me, how do you plan on getting along with Uncle Dominic and Aunt Melanie?”

“Just like before, I guess. They don’t like me very much, and I won’t force it.”

“But Amelia, I visited Spencer today and spoke to them about you. I think they feel guilty toward you, but they’re too used to being indifferent and do not know how to treat you better.” Eva racked her brain and continued, “Amelia, are you really not planning to fix your relationship with them?”

Amelia swung the bottle in her hands with a faint smile plastered on her face. “I’m not going to force it. Our relationship is already this way, and our hearts are not together. It will make everyone awkward even if we maintain the relationship on the surface.”
