Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 837

Chapter 837 Saving Tony

Amelia held onto Oscar’s hand tightly, worried about the countless dangers that awaited him in the building. He pulled her into his arms and said softly, “Don’t be afraid. Tony and I will both be fine.”

She nodded with a heavy heart as she leaned against his chest. Kurt wanted to go with Oscar. “It’s safer for me to go with you. No matter how strong you are in combat, you can’t possibly dodge all those bullets.”

Oscar merely glanced at Kurt and nodded. Then, the two of them carefully got closer to the abandoned building and avoided the patrolling armed kidnappers. They slowly made their way to the second floor and hid behind a pillar to see the situation on the floor below.

Like what the bodyguard said earlier, Tony was still sleeping. Besides that, the boy was surrounded by no less than ten kidnappers with guns. Each of them was wearing a mask. Anyone could tell that they had no intention of killing Tony.

Kurt said softly, “Boss, I’ll distract them while you go in and save Tony. I’m worried he’d get scared when he sees so many strangers around him when he wakes up.”

Oscar grabbed Kurt’s hand and replied in a low voice, “Let’s not be so hasty. It’ll be dark after an hour. We’d have better cover then. I don’t want anything to happen to Tony.”

“Yes, Boss.” With that, Oscar and Kurt retreated as quietly as they arrived. Despite only being two men, they were confident they could save Tony with their abilities if only there weren’t so many people around. However, it appeared that the kidnappers were well-prepared, and they had guns. A single mistake could put Tony in danger.

Oscar wasn’t going to bet on that. After Oscar and Kurt returned, Amelia rushed up to Oscar and examined him for wounds. Then, she asked anxiously, “Oscar, how is Tony? Is he okay? Is he scared? Did they give him a hard time?”

In an instant, Amelia asked tons of questions. “Calm down. He’s still sleeping and looks okay. I’ll save him once it’s dark. Don’t worry. I’m here,” Oscar comforted. She nodded, and her eyes reddened involuntarily.

Lifting her hand to wipe her tears, she said embarrassedly, “I didn’t want to cry like this. I want to be strong while I save Tony, but I’m really worried about him. I’m scared that something will happen to him! He’s still so little! He hasn’t even attended kindergarten and made friends his age! There’s still so much of this world that he hasn’t seen or experienced! What should I do if anything happens to him?”

Oscar held her in his arms silently to comfort her and make her feel safe.

As night fell, a black car approached the abandoned building right when Oscar and the others were about to make their move. Seeing that, Oscar gestured for the others not to act rashly.

Once the black car stopped, a man walked out of the vehicle. When Oscar and Amelia saw who it was, Amelia growled through gritted teeth, “June? Him again? What did the Clinton family do to him that made him go after a child? If anything happens to Tony, I swear I’ll kill him!”

Murderous intent flashed across Oscar’s eyes too as he declared, “I won’t let him off either!”

When June approached the abandoned building, the kidnappers with guns greeted him politely, “Boss.”

June walked straight into the building and half squatted before he pinched Tony’s sleeping face, observing it. Letting out a wicked laugh, he uttered, “So that’s why the Clinton family treats you like their precious gem. You’re adorable. If I were in their shoes, I’d love you and take good care of you too.”

June pinched Tony’s face with more force the second time and put on a mask. “Little boy, it’s time to wake up. You’ll become stupid if you sleep too much.”

Tony slowly opened his eyes and woke up. Although he was a little afraid when he saw so many strangers around him, he quickly got up from the floor and avoided June’s touch. There was a red mark on his fair and soft face.

He touched his cheek and, despite his size, asked sternly, “Who are you? Why did you kidnap me?”

June reached out to Tony’s face again while smiling. “As expected of the eldest grandson of the Clinton family. You still possess the strong presence of a Clinton even when you’re afraid. Little boy, aren’t you scared when you see our appearance?”

Tony looked at June and thought of something. Suddenly, his eyes reddened, making him look like a pitiful child.

“Mister, I’m scared. I wish to see Mommy. Could you please bring me to Mommy?” Tony asked pitifully.

June was delighted to see how pathetic Tony looked. He smirked sinisterly and pinched Tony’s face again, saying, “If only your father was as cowardly as you. But it’s good news for me that his son is a scaredy-cat. I wonder how Oscar and Amelia will react when they can’t see you?”

Tony looked angry for a split second. However, he was smart enough to know that he shouldn’t offend June when he was alone. Therefore, he agreed with what June said, “You’re right, Mister. Big Meanie is a coward! It’ll be best if you can separate Big Meanie from Mommy!”

Obviously, June was amused by what he heard. “You’re calling your daddy Big Meanie? Hmm. It sounds pretty appropriate.”

Tony nodded seriously and looked up innocently. “Mister, you think he’s a meanie too, don’t you? He kicked Mommy out and was the reason she couldn’t be together with Godpa, so I don’t like him. He steals Mommy away from me all the time, so she doesn’t have time for me and doesn’t love me as much anymore! I hate him!”

June pinched Tony’s face and said, “Little boy, you’re really adorable. What should I do? I think I’ve taken a liking to you.”

Tony opened his eyes widely and said sweetly, “I like you too, Mister. I think you’re better than Big Meanie. Although I don’t know what you look like, I think you’re really kind and friendly.”

Instantly, June felt better. “Okay. I’m in a good mood today, so I won’t do anything to you.”

Unexpectedly, Tony hugged June and kissed the latter’s cheek. “I like you very much, Mister!”

June couldn’t help but stretch his hands and hug Tony. “Since you like me so much, once I use you to strip your daddy’s right to manage Clinton Corporations, I’ll be sure to take good care of you. Don’t worry. I won’t let you sleep on the streets.”

Tony opened his eyes the widest he could and acted cute. “Mister, once Big Meanie hands over his management right to you, can you marry Mommy and become my daddy?”

June’s mood became even better than before. He squeezed Tony’s cheeks and said, “You’re really too likable! I can’t imagine anyone who wouldn’t like you. No wonder Oscar and Amelia treat you like a gem. Sure. Once I get the right to manage the company, I’ll marry your mommy and become your daddy.”

Tony nodded.

They were chatting happily when Tony suddenly clutched his belly and said pitifully, “Mister, I’m hungry. Can you give me something to eat?”

June agreed. Right when June was about to get his men to grab Tony something to eat, Tony pushed his luck by acting cute. “Mister, can you cook for me? You must be a good cook if you really want to be my daddy in the future. I want to eat what you cook. Please?”

No one knew what June was thinking, but he agreed to Tony’s request and even asked his men to prepare some clean kitchenware.

One of the burly men said roughly, “Boss, we don’t need to play pretend with a little child. We can just give him a slice of bread.”

Instantly, June slapped the man angrily and shouted, “Who are you to interfere with what I want to do?”

The man slapped by June was angry and displeased, but he didn’t dare to express his anger. He used to be in the special forces but had already retired. Therefore, he had a bad temper. He would’ve taught June a lesson if it weren’t for the money.

June glared at the man and snapped, “Well? Why are you still here? Prepare the kitchenware! Why did I even spend so much on hiring you guys when you can’t even do something as simple as this?”

Having no other choice, the man could only walk away to prepare the kitchenware in exasperation.
