Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 821

Chapter 821 Lashing Out Through Games

In the end, Terrence didn’t get to meet Tiffany. Before he left, he said meaningfully, “Amelia, I always deem you as a thoughtful and gentle person. I never expect you to have such a smart mouth.

It seems that I’ve misjudged you. However, it doesn’t surprise me. After all, Oscar is a canny man. It’s only natural that the woman he falls for is the same.”

“You’re flattering me too much, Mr. Hisson. If I’m that canny, Tiff wouldn’t have to give up the Hissons’ assets just to get a divorce.” Unfazed by his words, Amelia shot back, causing Terrence’s expression to turn grim.

Terrence then placed his hands behind his back and stomped away without saying anything further.

Amelia heaved a sigh of relief after watching him leave. She then went upstairs and opened the door carefully. The moment she spotted Tiffany standing by the window and gazing into the scenery alone, sadness clouded her eyes. Amelia shut the door behind her and approached her friend.

“Tiff,” she called out. Tiffany came back to her senses and turned around to face Amelia. She forced a smile and asked, “Has Mr. Hisson left?”

“Yes. I’ve asked Mr. Feltham to draft a divorce agreement. Since you insist on not wanting the Hissons’ asset, I have requested him to advise Derrick to sign the divorce papers as soon as possible. Is there anything else you want to add?” Amelia asked on purpose while staring straight at Tiffany.

Tiffany’s expression stiffened when she heard such a question. The smile on her face faded too.

“No, I don’t,” she replied with a shake of her head.

Amelia pulled her to the bed, sat her down, and said, “Tiff, I want to know if you saw something at Derrick’s company. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have insisted on divorcing him when you returned from his company. I remembered you were having second thoughts about getting a divorce before you left.”

“I didn’t see anything. I’m just exhausted and decided to stop struggling with this relationship,” Tiffany replied downheartedly.

Amelia was determined to get an answer, but Tiffany’s response rendered her speechless. After a short pause, she replied, “It’s great that you’ve thought things through. Either way, it’s best to get a divorce. The next time you find a partner, look for someone with a similar background, okay? Life will be easier that way.”

Tiffany did not answer her.

Seeing such, Amelia stood up, pulled her friend up, and said, “Come on. Let’s head out for a stroll.”

Tiffany followed behind obediently.

Amelia drove Tiffany to the city center. When they got out of the car, they bumped into Gary, who had just left his car as well.

A glint of delight flashed across Gary’s eyes when he spotted them. He strode toward them without hesitation.

He greeted, “What a coincidence, Amelia, Tiffany. We must be lucky enough to meet each other here. Come, I’ll take you two for coffee.”

In response, Amelia gestured at Tiffany using her mouth. Upon noticing her actions, Gary finally noticed that Tiffany was not in a good spirit.

“Tiffany, what’s wrong? Are you ill?”

“I’m fine.” Tiffany shook her head. “It’s been a while, Gary. I’m happy to see you. Do you have any suggestions on any exciting new games to play?”

“I do indeed have one.”

With that, Gary took the two ladies to a gun range. He asked brightly, “Have you ever played with a gun before? Men deem shooting a gun as exciting. If you don’t prefer this, I can take you two somewhere else.”

Tiffany replied, “I don’t mind. As matter of fact, I have been trying to write a novel where the male main character is a professional shooter. However, since I have no experience in such a profession, I put a halt to my idea. It’s great that I can experience it now.”

Gary took the two to change into professional gears. He even got instructors for them to teach them. After receiving a short course, Tiffany opened fire continuously as if she was trying to vent her emotions. The more she missed the target, the more shots she fired. At that point, it seemed that the target was her enemy, and she was determined to destroy it.

Amelia got worried about her after seeing her actions. She wanted to stop Tiffany, but Gary grabbed her and shook his head at her. He advised, “Let her vent out her frustration. I can tell that she isn’t in a good mood.”

Amelia let out a sigh.

Gary placed his hands behind his back and stared at Tiffany, who was not far from them. He then asked, “Amelia, if you don’t mind me asking, what’s wrong with Tiffany? I haven’t known her for long, but I know she’s a happy-go-lucky person. There isn’t much that can bring her to such a depressed state.”

“You have a good eye. She’s fine, but there’s something wrong with her marriage. You must have known that she married the Hissons’ son. The family is aristocratic, large, and has many rules. Problems start to happen when she can’t cope with them. Anyway, don’t worry about her. I believe that she will overcome this,” said Amelia casually.

“I believe that too. She’s a tough woman.”

Tiffany kept shooting at the target for an hour until she finally felt exhausted.

She then took a towel and wiped away the beads of sweat on her forehead, which were caused by the hot sun. It was obvious that her mood had taken a turn for the better.
