Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 641

Chapter 641 Paint Splattered On The Wall

Tiffany sat dejectedly on the couch and remarked, “It’s obvious that someone is trying to stall the filming of the movie. I’m a best-selling author, not an heir to a conglomerate owned by a powerful family. It just feels like I’m powerless to ensure the completion of my work.”

“With Oscar around, I’m sure your novel will be successfully adapted into a movie.”

“I’m confident that filming will be completed. It’s just that every single day’s worth of delay caused by the troublemakers results in losses, on top of us falling behind schedule. Consequently, all the money that your husband, and the other major investors, invested in the movie would have gone down the drain.

If the film adaptation fails, it will not only affect future adaptations, but readers might also start to doubt the quality of my written works,” Tiffany explained in a disheartened tone. The rumors generated from previous accusations of plagiarism and refusal to compensate for injuries continued to fuel negative publicity for the film.

Amelia changed the topic. “Tiff, I heard that there’s a telescope at the newly built pavilion at Mount Locus. By paying a small fee of a hundred, one can use it to admire the surrounding scenery. Since there’s no way you can generate any ideas in your current condition, why don’t we go hiking to clear our minds?”

Upon giving it some thought, Tiffany nodded in agreement. “Sure.”

After changing into the appropriate outfits, Amelia and Tiffany set off.

They drove to Mount Locus and parked their car upon their arrival. From there, they climbed the steps up the hill and were greeted by the newly-built pavilion with a telescope in place. They had earlier assumed that it was just a simple telescope and didn’t expect to find an array of sophisticated equipment laid out inside the pavilion.

Moreover, there was a crowd surrounding it with everyone enthusiastically paying the fee to use the telescope. Observing the scene, Amelia remarked, “The proprietor must have an excellent business acumen to have come up with such a brilliant idea.”

Tiffany shared her opinion. “Clearly, this high-end telescope and its corresponding equipment must have cost at least a few million. If someone carelessly damages them, it would be a disaster. Hence, my gut feeling tells me that the owner isn’t doing this for money but more to while away his time.”

Shrugging her shoulders, Amelia replied, “I don’t really care. Come, let’s go and take a look.”

Tiffany nodded.

Just when both of them approached and paid two hundred, a familiar voice rang out from behind them. “Amelia, what an honor it is to run into you here.”

Unable to control herself, Amelia cursed in her heart. This damn evil spirit just can’t stop haunting me.

The person who called out to them was none other than June.

Given that she kept running into him everywhere, Amelia was understandably irate.

She replied awkwardly, “Mr. Wick, I didn’t expect to see you here.”

“I am the one who paid for this pavilion to be built, for it has been my wish to admire the beautiful scenery here. Nonetheless, I didn’t expect it to have attracted your attention and for fate to have brought you here,” June explained as he walked over.

As Tiffany gave the handsome foreigner a curious look, she found him familiar but couldn’t remember who he was.

She asked softly, “Babe, who is this? Is he an acquaintance?”

“He is Cassie’s fiancé,” Amelia answered in resignation.

Initially, Tiffany was interested in getting to know June better. However, her face turned grim once she heard Amelia explain his identity.

“Babe, let’s go. The air feels kind of polluted here,” Tiffany urged as she tugged Amelia’s arm.

June smiled calmly at Tiffany, “Miss, I’m sure you must have the wrong impression of me.”

“No, I do not discriminate against those who are good-looking. I just don’t like Cassie. Since you’re her fiancé, that resentment naturally extends to you,” Tiffany answered candidly.

She was never one to be a hypocrite. Whether she liked someone or not, she would clearly show it.

June clapped his hand. “Interesting! Pretty miss, can I have the honor of learning your name?”

Tiffany squirmed her lips. “I’m not going to tell you. Babe, let’s go.”

June took a big step in front of them and suggested with a smile, “Ladies, since it’s a wonderful coincidence to run into both of you, shall we have a chat over coffee?”

“Forget it, I don’t think there’s anything for us to talk about,” Tiffany rejected at once.

Subsequently, she went down the hill with Amelia in tow. After getting into the car, she grumbled, “What an unlucky day!”

“Are you angry?”
