Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 792

Chapter 792

It was already nightfall by the time they finished dinner. Upon bidding each other farewell, Amelia took the back seat with Tony while Oscar drove them home.

When the trio exited the elevator, they ran into Noah and Stephanie. Both of them seemed to be having a falling- out, as Noah pleaded frantically, "Come home with me, Steph. Nothing is going on between Emma and me. Yes, I admit that we used to be an item. However, it's all in the past. I've cut off ties with her before you and I got together. She's the one who's constantly pestering me. I didn't mean to hurt you, Steph. I love you, I really do."

Stephanie avoided him and snapped, "Don't touch me!"

"Steph-" Before Noah could say anything further, Amelia interrupted him, "What are you two doing here?" She could not care less if the couple had made up with each other. Her priority was to stop them from raising a ruckus outside of her house, especially when Tony was present. She did not want her child to witness such a scene.

When Noah saw Oscar and Amelia, the former collected himself and greeted them politely, "Hi, Oscar and Amelia."

As Stephanie strode toward Amelia, Oscar instinctively pulled the mother and son duo behind him.

"Oscar, Amelia, Noah is so annoying! Could I put up a night at your place, please? I don't want to see him at all!" Stephanie complained aggrievedly.

Unfortunately, Oscar insisted firmly, "Go home now."

The pregnant Stephanie turned to Amelia and heaved a sigh. "I was hoping you could let me stay here tonight, Amelia. May I?"

"Oscar, let them go inside. We're not the only family living here. It won't be nice to disturb the neighbors at this hour," suggested Amelia as she adjusted Tony's position in her arms.

Oscar nodded in response.

With that, Noah and Stephanie followed them into the house.

"Oscar, it's getting late. I'm going to bathe Tony upstairs before he gets sleepy," Amelia announced.

Oscar acknowledged her with a nod.

As soon as Amelia took the steps upstairs, Oscar's expression darkened instantly.

"What do the both of you want?"

"I'm sorry, Oscar. I didn't expect Steph to show up at your place. I just wanted to bring her home. Since you're my brother-in-law, would you help me persuade her and say something nice on my behalf?" Noah said earnestly.

Upon taking a glance at Stephanie, Oscar obliged. "That's enough, Steph. It's time to go home. Don't think you can do as you please just because Noah spoils you. Which guy doesn't have a past relationship before getting married? Don't make a big fuss out of it. You've got two options; get a divorce or go back with him and live happily ever after. Pick one."

Biting her lip, Stephanie fell silent.

On the other hand, Noah was surprised that Oscar was taking his side.

"Please forgive me, Steph. I can guarantee this won't happen again," Noah quickly added.

Stephanie glared at him. Subsequently, she unexpectedly lunged at Oscar. Wrapping her arms around his, she uttered in a child-like manner, "I'm sorry, Oscar. I know it's my fault. We've been giving each other the cold shoulder for three long years. It's about time we make up, right?"

Oscar stared at her indifferently.

"Forgive me, Oscar. I'll go back with Noah if you promise to forgive me."

As an idea dawned on him, Oscar cast her a look and asked, "You really want me to forgive you?"

With much anticipation, Stephanie stared at him intently with a pair of bright eyes.

"Sure, you're forgiven."

There was a sparkle in her eyes when she heard that. "Really, Oscar?"

He nodded.

Smiling sheepishly, Stephanie walked up to Noah and hugged him by the neck. "Did you hear that, Noah? Oscar and I have patched things up. From now on, you can't bully me anymore. Otherwise, I'll chop off your you- know-what."

Delighted, Noah tucked her into his embrace.

If Oscar and Stephanie are on talking terms, I'll be the one who benefits the most from their good relationship. In turn, this will help Walker Group significantly. However, why does Oscar change his mind all of a sudden and forgive Stephanie? I doubt he's someone fickle-minded who doesn't stick to his principles. Is something fishy going on?

Though Noah was overjoyed, he could not help but feel suspicious about the whole situation.
