Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 774

Chapter 774 Bury The Hatchet

“Oscar, if this was four years ago, I’d be willing to close one eye and accept your frivolous relationships with other women. But now, I feel totally disgusted at the thought of you kissing or hugging another woman. I’m sorry, but I’m not as big-hearted as you expect,” Amelia lowered her head and said. In truth, she did not like how petty she was being as well. However, it was difficult for her not to be affected by Isabella’s words.

Whenever Amelia thought of how Oscar might have willingly kissed Isabella, she was overwhelmed with jealousy. So much so that it affected her concentration to draw. Amelia initially planned to deal with the photo incident in a low-key manner, but her plan was thwarted when Jolin snitched on her.

Of course, Amelia had planned to ask about the photo, but only when she was in a calmer mood so that the matter could be discussed amicably. However, now that Oscar brought up the issue first, she found it difficult to remain composed.

Amelia was more tolerant toward outsiders. But when it came to Oscar, she had to admit that she was possessive of him. She did not want him to be associated with another woman in any way.

Oscar’s heart ached when he saw Amelia in this self-deprecating state. He reached out to hug her but she pushed him away.

“Oscar, please give me a couple of days to sort out my mind. We’ll talk about this once I’ve recomposed myself, okay?” Amelia pleaded with Oscar.

Oscar gazed at her intently. Finally, he nodded and agreed to her request.

Amelia bypassed Oscar to enter the bedroom. Just then, he said, “I’ll sleep in the study tonight.”

Amelia felt her back stiffen for a second before nodding her head slightly.

Oscar felt very vexed. After waiting for Amelia to enter the bedroom, he gave Julian a call and asked him out for drinks.

Julian agreed without any hesitation.

Oscar took his jacket and informed Amelia at the bedroom doorway. “Amelia, I’m going out for a while. If there’s anything, just give me a call and I’ll come back immediately.”

There was no reply from her.

Oscar sighed and felt more vexed than ever.

On his way out, he instructed Jolin and Kurt to look after Amelia. He then drove off and left for his destination.

Meanwhile, in the bedroom, Amelia buried herself beneath the covers. She stared dazedly into the darkness and tried to make sense of everything. But all she saw was emptiness.

After some time, she fell asleep. However, her sleep was assailed by dreams, effectively making sure that she would not have a good sleep.

“Who’s that?” Amelia suddenly jolted awake and was shocked to see a dark shadow standing beside the bed.

“It’s me, don’t be alarmed.” Oscar switched on the bedside lamp and sat on the edge of the bed. He asked gently, “Did I scare you?”

Amelia caught a whiff of alcohol coming from Oscar’s body. She became angry and started to hammer at his chest. Tears began to roll down her eyes.
