Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 728

Chapter 728 You Are Not Dead

The news of Amelia’s return came as good news to some and bad news to others. When Isabella heard that Amelia had returned home safe, her first reaction was to freeze before looking at Stephanie in bewilderment. “Are you serious, Steph?”

She had been gleeful about Amelia’s disappearance, but before she could even enjoy the fruits of her victory, Amelia miraculously appeared once again. That turn of events came as a smack, slapping her back to reality.

“Why would I joke about things like these? It’s all over the news now. Every channel is reporting about how the plane that had disappeared on the way to Saspiuburg had been found. I even called my mom, and she said that Amelia had returned. If you don’t believe me, you can go there with me and see for yourself.”

Stephanie pursed her lips. “I was hoping for something to happen to Amelia too. But, I had no idea she could be so lucky to be alive even after her plane lost contact. It’s crazy that they were found just after a few days. It seems that it’s really hard for her to die.”

Isabella cast her gaze downward as a gloomy look flashed across her eyes.

She was feeling resentful. If something really happened to Amelia, and if the plane was never found, I would have a chance to get closer to Oscar.

Isabella believed that she could become the next Mrs. Clinton. After a few years, when Carol steps down from being the lady of the house, she could take over. In fact, she had everything planned out. However, before Isabella could even set her plan into motion, everything dissolved to nothing. There was no way she would not feel resentful about it.

After spending so much time plotting, her plans had been thwarted in an instant. Isabella felt as though there was a rock weighing heavily in her heart. She felt as though she could not even breathe.

“Let’s go to see her at my brother’s place, Isabella. Maybe she lost her arm or broke her leg. I just want to see her in pain. I think that would be an interesting sight,” Stephanie said excitedly.

Although she was already married, Stephanie was still as gleeful as ever if she could see Amelia in agony. Her happiness was literally built upon Amelia’s suffering.

After thinking about it, Isabella agreed. “Where are you two going?” Noah asked when he noticed how excited the two women were as he was walking down the stairs.

“Amelia’s back. Isabella and I are going to see if she’s crippled or not.” Stephanie was not afraid of revealing her true intentions. In her opinion, Noah should be on her side.

Noah frowned. He did not expect Amelia to be so lucky. It was rare to discover a missing plane just after two to three days, what more to find survivors. In most cases, even the bodies of the passengers would be beyond recognition as they were stuck to the scrap.

“I’ll go with you two. Since Amelia is back, I should go and visit her as well.” Noah went up the stairs to get changed. He was back down in less than a minute. “Let’s go.”

Stephanie looked at him with a doubtful gaze. “Noah, tell me the truth. Do you like her?”

Noah looked at her in bemusement. “What is going on in that little head of yours? She’s Oscar’s wife, and I’m your husband. Should I not go to visit her when she went against all of the odds and returned home safely? If I don’t go, others might label me as rude.”

Stephanie pursed her lips in response. “You better be thinking that way. She’s just a vixen. Stay further away from her. I don’t want her to be anywhere near you.”

Noah raised his hand to pat her lightly on the head. “You’re pregnant now. All you need to do is to relax. Don’t think too much about other stuff. You are the one I love the most.”

Stephanie nodded her head in satisfaction as she tilted her face upward. “It’s good that you know that. You’re extremely lucky to have married me. Therefore, you have to treat me better, got it?”

Noah nodded as he looked at her in adoration.

Isabella was standing by the side when she saw the act Noah was putting on. Her lips curled into a smile as she scoffed silently. Noah should have won the best actor award for his brilliant acting. If she did not know how many lovers he had in secret, Isabella would have believed that he really loved Stephanie.

I guess even feelings can be faked.

Isabella did not know how long would Noah be able to keep up that act.

Keeping their thoughts to themselves, all three of them started their journey toward the neighborhood. Once they arrived, Isabella parked her car, and they got out.

The group took the elevator up. Noah pressed the doorbell, and Tiffany came to open the door. When she saw the people at the door, unwillingness could be seen written all over her face.

“Why are you here?” Tiffany asked.
