Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 796

Chapter 796

Noah got out of the car and walked into the living room. Frowning, Olivia glanced at him. "Noah, are you going to divorce Stephanie? She's pregnant with your child now. Do you really want to abandon them?"

Noah walked over helplessly. "Mom, I really love Stephanie. In the car just now, I was just telling her to trust me and stop bringing up my ex-girlfriend.

Otherwise, my love for her will wear out no matter how deep it is. After hearing that, she misunderstood me and thought I wanted to divorce her. I don't know what to do either."

Olivia shot Stephanie a glance. "Steph, is that true?"

"Mom, he has always wanted to divorce me. He's been together with that woman for almost ten years now," Stephanie scoffed and said petulantly.

Olivia knitted her brows, looking dissatisfied. "Steph, stop messing around. I won't stop you if you want to divorce Noah, but if you don't want to do that, just continue living your life peacefully with him."

Stephanie sat on the couch in frustration.

Just then, Oscar, who was carrying Tony in his arms, walked down the stairs with Amelia. As soon as Noah saw Oscar, his eyes flickered.

Stephanie walked over with an ingratiating smile. "Oscar."

Oscar only nodded at her placidly.

Since they were now downstairs, Tony broke free of Oscar's embrace and jumped to the ground. Then, he ran over and threw himself into Olivia's arms.

Holding Tony in her arms, Olivia cooed at him lovingly. After the two hugged each other for a while, Olivia said, "Tony, you haven't greeted your Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Noah yet."

Upon hearing that, Tony pulled away from her and greeted Stephanie and Noah obediently.

A tinge of annoyance flashed across Stephanie's eyes, but a gentle smile crept on her face in the next second.

She took out a gift she had prepared from her handbag. It was a shiny, beautiful jade pendant with clear textures.

With a soft voice, Stephanie said, "Come here, Tony. I happened to see this jade pendant in an antique store. The store owner told me that this is a powerful pendant that can protect the one who wears it, so I spent a lucrative sum and bought it for you. Do you like it?"

Tony glanced at Amelia cautiously, and Amelia nodded slightly in response. However, she didn't look excited or happy.

With that, Tony walked over to Stephanie. Immediately, Stephanie put the jade pendant on him. "It's so beautiful," she said with a chuckle.

Olivia gazed at the pendant. "It's indeed beautiful, but boys shouldn't wear pendants like that. It looks a little girlish."

Stephanie nodded. "Mom, I just felt that this pendant will look good on Tony. That's why I bought it for him. I'll buy him something else when he's a little older," she added.

Olivia waved her hand at Tony. "Shouldn't you thank Aunt Stephanie for the gift?"

Without hesitation, Tony said, "Thank you, Aunt Stephanie."

The few continued chatting for a little in the living room. Not long after, Olivia ordered the housekeepers to serve the food. Following that, everyone sat around the dining table and started eating. Olivia piled some food on Tony's plate. "Tony, eat more. I asked the chef to prepare all of these for you," she said, concern evident in her voice.

"Thank you, Grandma!" Tony said with a sweet voice.

As Stephanie watched how close Olivia and Tony were, a tinge of dissatisfaction glinted across her eyes.

"Mom, Tony is over three years old now. He's no longer a baby. Other kids are already in kindergarten at this age, yet you're still treating him like a baby. Aren't you afraid that you'll spoil him?" she asked casually while eating her food.

Olivia's expression darkened. "Steph, what do you mean by that? He's your nephew, and you're his aunt. Instead of treating him well, you even blame me for doting on him. I remember I also doted on you like this when you were young."

Flashing an apologetic smile, Stephanie replied, "Don't be angry, Mom. That's not what I meant. I'm just afraid that he'll become too willful in the future. After all, we shouldn't spoil a young boy like this."
