Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 633

Chapter 633 June Is Back As A Foreign Merchant

Meanwhile, Dominic cleared his throat deliberately before asking somberly, “Melanie, why did you say those words to Amelia just now?

Melanie retorted, “What am I supposed to say then? We weren’t really much of a parent to her, but she has been sacrificing a lot for the family. Anyway, I still have my sense of pride. Instead of living in sheer guilt as she continues to sacrifice generously for our family, it would be better if we cut ties with her earlier!”

Dominic was at a loss for words. His back seemed to have hunched even more.

After what seemed like an eternity, he let out a sigh. “Melanie, you’ve got the point. After Spencer recovers, let’s leave Tayhaven together. Don’t ever show up in front of Amelia again. Perhaps, that’s our best way to make it up to her.”

Even so, Melanie only remained silent.

Nobody knew if James’ medical skills had worked magic or because Spencer was fated to get through the obstacle. Miraculously, he had a speedy recovery after his operation and could even get down from bed two weeks later.

Gazing at Amelia, the middle-aged man stated earnestly, “Amelia, many thanks to you during this period. If not for you, I would surely meet my end at any moment. I feel bad for causing you a lot of inconveniences all this while.

Staring at him, Amelia smiled gently. “Spencer, don’t ever say so. Since you have recovered, no words could describe how happy we are.” In actuality, Spencer did not really get along well with her when they were young. Somehow, there was an unexpected twist ever since he fell ill, and they could even chat pleasantly at the moment. Even Spencer could sense the change in himself. Surprisingly, he seemed to be placing familial bonding over others as he grew older. He was suddenly regretful of fighting with her over trivial arguments and even hurt her feelings with harsh words numerously when they were young.

Scratching his head subconsciously, Spencer uttered guiltily, “Amelia, I’m terribly sorry for how I’ve treated you when we were young. I don’t know what I should do to repay your kindness. I can’t believe you’re willing to spend a few hundred thousand for my treatment despite how I had treated you. But don’t worry. After I’m healthy enough to work again, I promise I’ll pay back the money to you.”

Amelia shook her head at once. “Don’t mention it. Anyway, we’re family. As long as you can lead a peaceful life with Evelyn and bring your children up, I’ll be more than happy.”

“Sure! I will!” Spencer responded earnestly.

Amelia chuckled at his reaction.

At that moment, she was relieved to let bygones be bygones with Spencer. She even had a feeling that the Winters family were not as cold as they seemed.

She felt as if she was ready to let go of the past. Even if they would not cross paths with each other again in the future, she knew she would not have any regrets.

Spencer stayed for a few more days in the hospital. When the doctor announced he could be discharged, Melanie packed their things and prepared to go home.

Amelia helped to buy three flight tickets for them before sending them to the airport. When they were supposed to have their security check, she could not hold herself back anymore. After hugging them one by one, she said sincerely, “Dad, Mom, Spencer, feel free to give me a call at any time. I’m part of the family forever.” If only you all could see me as family too!

Inevitably, tears started to well up in Melanie’s eyes. She pretended not to care and replied, “Enough of that. You’d better go back early. We’ve to go through the security check now. Oh my! How embarrassing if we are to get on the plane in tears!”

Amelia could not fathom why she suddenly burst out laughing. In fact, she suddenly felt that Melanie sounded adorable in a way. In return, she responded coquettishly, “Mom, I love you very much. Call me when you’re free, okay? Don’t forget about your daughter.”

Melanie rolled her eyes at her before urging Dominic and Spencer to head for the security check. Within seconds, she was already on the brink of tears.

“You’re undoubtedly as stubborn as a mule. What’s wrong for you to tell Amelia that you’ll be missing her too?” Dominic mocked.

“Mind your words! I won’t miss her!” Melanie refuted adamantly.

“Then why are you crying?” Dominic pointed out at the sight of tears trickling down her cheeks.

“I’m not crying! It’s just the sand getting into my eyes.” Melanie came up with a random excuse, causing him to be utterly speechless.

Amelia only turned to leave when their silhouettes were finally out of sight. Nevertheless, there was an unmissable residue of longing in her eyes. She could not help wondering when they would be able to meet again.

At the thought of that, she got into Oscar’s car in low spirits.

The latter tried to cheer her up by saying, “If you really miss them later, we can visit them at any time. After all, anywhere is accessible with the advanced transportation system nowadays.”

Leaning her back against the backseat, Amelia replied resignedly, “I’m afraid they’ll not be happy to see me.”

“No matter what, you’re still their daughter. I bet there aren’t any parents who’ll not be happy to see their daughters,” Oscar comforted.

Amelia threw him a glance silently. Nonetheless, she could not assure herself that her adoptive parents would be pleased to see her again.

“Let’s go back to the Winters residence to celebrate the new year this round,” Oscar suggested.

Amelia cast her eyes down as she contemplated. After a while, she said nonchalantly, “It’s all right. The Winters family has never liked me all this while. If they suddenly butter me up just because I’m married to an heir of a prestigious family, I would rather avoid being closely acquainted with them.”

“Have you thought it through?” Oscar asked tactfully.

“Start driving. I’m not as vulnerable as you think. Furthermore, I’ve to be engaged at work after I’m back to the office,” Amelia said casually; a bright smile broke out on her face.

“If there’s anything bothering you, you must not hesitate to tell me,” Oscar reminded her.

“Okay, I know.” Amelia flashed him a smile again.

After her adoptive parents left with Spencer, Amelia’s life was back on track. Thus, she started burying herself in work again.

One day, Amelia was busy at work as usual. Shane suddenly led a foreigner into their office and clapped his hands to attract everyone’s attention. “Everyone, may I have your attention, please.”
