Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 622

Chapter 622 An Injury To The Head

Tiffany slumped against the backseat and said, “Amelia, can you send me home first?”

Amelia looked at Tiffany worriedly. “Tiff, are you okay? You don’t look so good.”

Tiffany placed a hand to her chest and replied, “I’m just a little panicky and furious. I will be fine in a while.”

“You mustn’t let what Mrs. Hisson said bother you. She is Derrick’s mother, so don’t think about the harsh things she said,” Amelia advised Tiffany.

“I’m not angry with her. Instead, I’m angry with myself. If she were not Derrick’s mother, I wouldn’t have been able to control my temper. I would have beat her up. When we were having dinner, I could not stop myself from imagining what it would be like to beat her up. I fear that I might lose control one day and punch her. That would have felt nice.” Tiffany was still able to crack a joke.

Amelia chuckled in amusement.

“Don’t think about it. Mrs. Hisson will eventually realize what a good person you are. Time will reveal a person’s true character. As long as you treat her well, she will eventually see how much you and Derrick love each other and relent,” Amelia continued.

“I hope that is the case. However, Mrs. Hisson hates me too much. It is difficult.” Tiffany did not hold any hope that Kate would change.

Amelia did not know what else to say to comfort Tiffany. During dinner just now, Kate kept verbally attacking and mocking Tiffany. Thus, Amelia predicted that Tiffany and Derrick would have to put in a lot of effort for their relationship to succeed.

It may even end in a tragedy.

Oscar sent Tiffany back to her neighborhood. Tiffany got out of the car and said goodbye to Amelia before entering her apartment block.

After Tiffany disappeared into the building, Amelia turned to Oscar and looked at him lovingly, “Oscar, I suddenly realized that I am fortunate. Although your parents were not completely happy with me, at least they did not cause us trouble. I am truly thankful for that.”

“Don’t worry. The Hissons will eventually accept Tiffany. Old Mr. Hisson is a shrewd businessman. He would not simply let go of the chance of a deeper alliance with the Clintons,” Oscar explained calmly. “Tiffany and Derrick will get married eventually, so don’t worry about it.”

Amelia looked at Oscar puzzledly. “How are you so sure?”

“Old Mr. Hisson is not an idiot,” Oscar replied. “He is an intelligent man. Thus, he would naturally want to have a closer relationship with the Clintons and ally with us.”

“The news that you accepted Tiff as your god-sister had gone out long ago, but Old Mr. Hisson hasn’t done anything. Furthermore, Mrs. Hisson continued to look down on Tiff. Are you sure Old Mr. Hisson would accept Tiff?” Amelia asked doubtfully. When it concerned Tiffany, it was difficult for Amelia to rely on her logical mind to determine who was more advantageous in this situation.

“Honey, trust me. I am confident that Old Mr. Hisson is following the situation from afar. He is trying to determine how much influence Tiffany has over us and see if I would help her. I have helped Tiffany with the past few difficulties she faced. That would show Old Mr. Hisson that I valued her as my god-sister,” Oscar said.

Amelia considered it for a while. There were still things that she did not understand.

“Oscar, has anyone told you that you look incredibly handsome when you are serious?” Amelia remembered a pick-up line from the Internet and put it to use.

“Are you saying that I don’t look handsome on normal days?” Oscar teased.

“You’re always handsome, but I feel you are most handsome today,” Amelia replied.

Amelia and Oscar continued to tease each other. Suddenly, Amelia received a call from a hospital.

She pressed to answer it and went pale. “What happened? How did someone hit Dad’s head? Is he okay? Okay, I will head there now. Please take good care of him.”

Then, Amelia hung up and said with a frown, “Oscar, we have to go to the hospital. Someone injured my father’s head. I’m worried about him.”

“Sure.” Oscar sped up the car and brought them to the hospital in half an hour.

Amelia rushed into the hospital and took the elevator.

After coming out of the elevator, she continued to run until she saw Melanie. “Mom, what happened? Why did someone attack Dad?”

Melanie looked at Amelia as if she had found her pillar of support. She grabbed Amelia’s hand and cried, “Your brother is an insolent fool. Your father criticized him a little. Then, he lost his temper and threw something at your father. It hit your father’s head and knocked him out. Your father is being treated in the operating room. Why is my life so unfortunate? My son is ill, and my husband is knocked unconscious by our son. If anything happens to your father, how am I to live?”

Amelia frowned and forced herself to calm down and comfort Melanie.

“Mom, please calm down. We are at the best private hospital around. There is James and other outstanding doctors, so Dad is in good hands. Don’t frighten yourself. Oscar and I will be here. We won’t let anything happen to Dad,” Amelia said.

“Amelia, you must save your father. I think Spencer didn’t mean it, so don’t blame him,” Melanie pleaded.

Amelia felt uncomfortable when she heard that. Even now, her mother still protected Spencer and disregarded her husband’s well-being.
