Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 651

Chapter 651 Waiting For The Right Moment To Counterattack

Oscar and Amelia were already seated by the time Noah returned to the Clinton residence, and a sense of guilt engulfed him as he saw Oscar.

“Hi, Oscar. Hi, Amelia,” the man greeted, composing himself.

Oscar shot him an unusual glance. “Mom says you headed down to your office. You don’t have to work so hard right after coming back from your honeymoon.”

Noah beamed. “Okay. I’ll do my best to take it slower so I can spend more time with Stephanie.”

“I’m glad to see you treating Stephanie well. Keep it up.” Smiling, Oscar patted him on the shoulder. “If there’s any help you need at work, let me know. We’re family. You can tell me anything.”

“Thanks, Oscar. I will.”

Stephanie skipped over to Oscar with a plate of shrimp the moment she left the kitchen, and she even shoved Amelia aside with her bum. “Here, Oscar! Try some shrimp that Mom made. It’s really good.”

Oscar grabbed a piece and deshelled it perfectly before placing it in front of Amelia, who then opened her mouth to eat it.

A look of displeasure flashed in Stephanie’s eyes as she saw that. “Look at what a gentleman Oscar is to Amelia, Noah. Won’t you peel some shrimp for me too?”

Noah grabbed the largest shrimp and fed it to her after peeling it. “Do you like it?”

“Yup!” the woman replied while sneaking a triumphant glance at Amelia.

“Do you want more?”

“Yes.”

Amelia merely handed Oscar a piece of wet tissue, pretending not to notice Stephanie’s acts of pettiness.

Seeing that, the latter gnashed her teeth in fury, but her expression softened after Oscar shot her a warning glare.

Perhaps because Oscar now got along better with his sister, Olivia seemed to be in an exceptional mood. Coupled with Tony’s impish yet charming personality, the woman could be heard laughing at the dinner table most of the time.

Overjoyed, she fed Tony a lot of food while also keeping her own plate filled.

“You and Noah should head back now, Stephanie. Noah’s parents must be frantic by now. Be sure to apologize to them, and don’t act up just because Noah dotes on you. Do you understand?” said Olivia after dinner.

Stephanie nodded reluctantly. “Okay, Mom.”

After finally not having to deal with her mother’s chiding, the young woman entered the car and leaned closer to Noah, who was in the driver’s seat. “Did you see that, Noah? My brother actually put some food on my plate during dinner! You’re my lucky charm. He’s finally treating me like an equal after I married you!” she gushed.

“Does that make you happy?”

“Of course it does!” Stephanie unbuckled her seatbelt, crawled over to the man, and fiddled with his coat. Suddenly, she froze on the spot and screamed, “Stop the car!”

Noah immediately slammed the brakes in shock.

Stephanie pointed to a red stain on his white shirt. “What is this, Noah Walker? Why is there a woman’s lipstick stain on your shirt? Are you seeing someone else behind my back?” she interrogated.
