Too Much to Bear, My Love - Season 1 Episode 61

Nodding repeatedly, Olivia and Owen hurriedly got on the elevator and went up to the tenth floor.

Upon entering the ward and seeing Amelia lie unconscious on the bed, Olivia was distressed. She walked over quickly, looked at Oscar, and said in a hushed voice, “Oscar, what’s going on? How did Amelia get into a car accident?”

Oscar told them all about it.

“Has the person who ran the red light been caught?” asked Olivia with a long face.

“He’s been taken to the police station. Don’t worry, Mom. I’ll make sure he goes to jail,” assured Oscar, looking grim.

Olivia nodded. Feeling sorry, she looked at Amelia’s belly and said, “I asked her if she was pregnant a few days ago and she actually told me that she’d actually gained some weight. I don’t blame her for keeping it from us. The fact that you’ve been thinking about another woman must have broken her heart. She must be worried that we’ll take the child away from her if the two of you divorce in the future.”

Oscar said nothing.

“Look, Oscar, I just want to remind you that, since Amelia is now pregnant, you should settle down and have a life with her,” Olivia added with special emphasis.

Oscar pulled a long face, seemingly lost in thought.

Seeing this, Olivia got a little angry and emphasized, “I’m going to be frank with you, Oscar. Amelia’s baby is our first grandchild. I won’t allow him to grow up without a mother. If you’re unfaithful to her, you won’t be my son anymore.”

“Mom…” Oscar groaned, displeased.

But Olivia just stroked Amelia’s belly in silence.

“Oscar, listen to your mom. I don’t care how you messed around previously, but now that Amelia is pregnant, you need to settle down.”

Oscar was vexed.

Owen walked out of the ward with him and asked, “So what do you think, Oscar?”

“Dad, her pregnancy wasn’t what I’ve expected, so I think—”

“Oscar, don’t even think about it. I was quite dissatisfied with her at first, but she’s been treating us very well the past four years. I won’t allow her to have an abortion,” interrupted Owen as his face clouded over.

Looking at him calmly, Oscar maintained, “Dad, the one I love is Cassie, and she’s coming back to settle down here. I can’t abandon her.”

“That woman abandoned you for her so-called piano, so she might abandon you again for further training in the future. Can you really accept that?” Owen asked.

Pursing his lips, Oscar thought for a moment and said, “Dad, I believe she’ll make a mature choice now.”

“So are you going to get your own wife to abort the baby because of that woman?”

Oscar fell silent.

Closing her eyes, Amelia started imagining things and thought that she would not be able to fall asleep, but soon she did.

When she woke up, Oscar was there instead of Olivia. “You’re here, Mr. Clinton.”

“Feeling better?” asked Oscar while keeping his gaze on her.

“Are you disappointed that nothing happened to my baby even after a car crash?” Amelia stared straight into his eyes.

He adjusted the blanket for her and replied, “Don’t overthink it. Since you’re pregnant, just give birth to him. But you must tell me when you’re pregnant next time. I don’t want to learn about my wife’s pregnancy from others.”

“You don’t want me to abort it?” Amelia gave him a strange look, mixed feelings growing inside of her.

He simply changed the subject. “Don’t worry about anything. Just give birth to the baby. No matter how we end up in the future, I’ll make sure that you live the rest of your life in comfort.”

A hint of bitterness grew inside her. Closing her eyes, she requested, “Mr. Clinton, if we divorce, I only have one demand, which is to give me the child’s custody. I can give up my share of the assets.”

“No, he’s the descendant of the Clintons, so he must stay with the Clintons,” Oscar rejected without even thinking about it.

She pulled the blanket over her head and asked, “Will we get a divorce in the future?”

Looking at the blanket with complicated emotion in his eyes, Oscar suddenly could not bring himself to say yes, so he said instead, “You’re pregnant now and the doctor wants you to rest well. You only need to focus on taking good care of your body.”

Amelia nodded under the blanket.

He tried to lift the blanket but could not, so he asked, “Are you going to talk to me like this?”

“What else do you want to talk to me, Mr. Clinton?” Amelia peeked out from under the blanket.

“It’s been a long time since we’ve talked in such a calm manner. Let’s have a chat.” Oscar patted her on the head.

“You actually have the time to chat?” Amelia blinked.

Oscar chuckled and asked, “Why do you talk to me like I’m the enemy? Do you not like chatting with me?”

Amelia shook her head.

“You are pregnant now, so let’s live together peacefully these few months,” Oscar declared.

“Well, as long as you don’t give us so much drama, I guess we can live together peacefully,” stated Amelia with a faint smile.

Now that the Clintons knew that she was pregnant, she would not want to destroy the superficial peacefulness by acting unreasonably as she was not ingenuous nor insensitive.

Perhaps the baby could ease the tension in her relationship with Oscar. She did not want to use Olivia, but she knew that Olivia might be able to play a mediating role in their relationship. Olivia could keep a tight rein on Oscar, and Cassie would not be able to marry into the Clintons so easily.

On the surface, Olivia was quite an easy-going lady and was different from other wealthy women who tended to act high and mighty. However, her kindness would only be shown to those who did not cross the line. Otherwise, it would be hard for her to forgive them.

Amelia knew she had Olivia backing her. As long as she wanted to use Olivia’s sympathy, Oscar would not insist on divorcing her.

She could manage without using Olivia before giving birth, but after the child was born, she would not be able to control the custody of the child. Using Olivia was her last resort as it could at least guarantee her status as the wife of Oscar.
