Too Much to Bear, My Love - Season 1 Episode 100

“Tiff.” As Amelia was about to put away her phone, Oscar took it from her and opened her call logs. Indeed, the most recent one was a call from Tiffany.

He then opened her text messages. The first one on the list was from Tiffany. His expression darkened, and he gave Amelia a complicated look. “You’re still in contact with Carter?”

Amelia replied, “We can’t be lovers, but Carter and I are still friends. I’d be lying if I said I wouldn’t contact him anymore.”

A mix of emotions flashed across Oscar’s face. He ordered, “Block him. You’re not allowed to see him anymore.”

Amelia asked, “Mr. Clinton, aren’t you being a bit too controlling?”

“You’re my woman. You’re not allowed to contact any other man except me.”

“Why are you so unconfident in yourself?”

Oscar stared at her.

Amelia shook her head and laughed. She walked over and wrapped her arms around his neck, then said, “You’re outstanding and handsome. I should be the unconfident one. As long as you still want me, I’ll never leave you.”

Oscar took her by the waist and pulled Amelia in until their bodies were in full contact with each other.

He looked into her eyes calmly. “Always remember, you’re mine. You’re not allowed to contact other men without my permission. Otherwise, I’ll punish you.”

“Oh… Mr. Clinton, don’t tell me you’re jealous? If you admit that you are, I won’t glance at any other men ever again.”

“Amelia… Sometimes you make me love and hate you all at once.”

Amelia remained silent.

Mr. Clinton, are you praising or insulting me?

“Do you mean to say that you actually love me too?”

Oscar was taken aback by this question. Do I love Amelia? He still had no answers to that question. He was confused about his feelings for her.

“I’ve been a good wife for five years. Don’t you have any feelings for me at all?”

Oscar pinched her nose and said adoringly, “You’re thinking of nonsense again, aren’t you? All you need to do now is rest up and give birth to the child safely.”

Amelia’s heart sank a little.

Oscar did not want to accept that he had fallen for Amelia. Perhaps the care and concern he was showing her were simply because of the child in her belly.

Although he had said that he did not want the child, it was the Clinton family’s first grandchild, after all.

Oscar, are you only treating me kindly because of this child?

“If I said my only wish was to hear you tell me ‘I love you,’ would you do it?”

Oscar patted her on the head and said, “They say that pregnant women tend to overthink a lot. It looks like this mind of yours indeed thinks about too much nonsense.”

“I won’t go.”

“Carter Scott!” Faye yelled.

“What’s going on?” said a husky voice from upstairs, “I can hear you guys arguing from up here.”

She took a deep breath before moving to help Abel Scott down the stairs. “Dad, why did you come downstairs?”

“I’m worried that the two of you would wreck the house. How can I just stay upstairs?” Abel glanced at her.

She smiled in embarrassment.

Abel sat down and pointed to the sofa. “Carter, sit down.”

Carter stubbornly remained standing.

“Must your granddad personally go over and invite you to sit down?”

Carter had no choice but to obey.

“So, what are the two of you arguing about this time?”

Carter remained silent as Faye complained, “It’s all because of Amelia. He started to question me about her the moment he came home.”

Not her again.

Abel had not heard her name in a long time. Now that he heard it again, was their family going to be in chaos once more because of this woman?

“Didn’t she marry someone?” Abel asked, “I remember it was the Clintons’ eldest son. People even talked about her marrying into money back then.”

Carter’s face was set in a grim expression.

“Carter, did you fight with your Mom because of her?”

Carter clenched his fist and said in a low voice, “Granddad, I didn’t fight with her. I just wanted an answer. She’s the one who overreacted.”

Abel looked at him and replied, “It’s already been so long. Is it really that important whether or not you get an answer now?”

How is it not important?

If you guys hadn’t broken us up back then, Amelia and I would still be together. We would be the perfect couple with our own children and living happily together. I wouldn’t be the single, lonely man that I am right now, that has to watch her be someone else’s wife and carry his child. Mom, Granddad, have you ever thought about how painful it is to see the woman I love marry another man?

“Granddad, I’ve only ever loved Amelia. She’s the only woman I’ll accept as part of my life. I’ll never marry anyone else.”

“You b*stard!”

Abel scoffed. “You’re my favorite grandchild. Since young, I’ve always spent the most energy on you and pampered you the most. You’re smart and doing well at work, but you’re now acting as if you’ll die for this woman. Is this how I raised you?”

Carter stood his ground and replied, “Granddad, she’s my source of strength. I’ve worked so hard all these years just to be able to protect her as best as I can. But because of you guys, I couldn’t be by her side when she needed me the most. Do you know how guilty I feel?”

Abel took a deep breath.
