Too Much To Bear, My Love Chapter 225
Chapter 225 Dispelling Former Hatred
Olivia’s health screening turned out fine. Although there were black spots on her heart, it was not malignant and would not spread. She had a weak heart since young and would feel pain whenever she was too agitated. Furthermore, Stephanie angered her recently and made her worry. As a result, her health worsened. Therefore, Robert advised her to rest and avoid stress.
Owen nodded in response to the advice.
After that, Robert turned to Amelia and said, “Amelia, your injuries have recovered, but if you noticed anything unusual about your sight, you must come back for a check-up. Don’t ignore it, okay?”
Amelia looked at Robert with a puzzled expression. Recently, her eyesight sometimes turned blurry for a moment and returned to normal soon after. She didn’t think much about it and only remembered now after hearing Robert’s advice.
It turned out that the accident might have affected her eyesight.
“Mr. Lancester, is something wrong with my eyesight?” Amelia asked.
Robert smiled and said, “There’s no problem, Amelia. Don’t worry about it. I’m just concerned whether you have any after-effects from the accident. That’s why I ask you to take note if there’s anything.”
Amelia was still a little worried.
Oscar wrapped his arm around her and said, “Mr. Lancester, I will take note of that and bring her back for a check-up.”
Robert smiled and said, “It’s wonderful that Amelia can recover in such a short time. However, she mustn’t do any heavy work. Otherwise, her body could not take it”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Lancester. We have maids at home. She will never have to lift a finger,” Oscar said.
After exchanging a few more words, Oscar brought Amelia, Olivia, and Owen to the car.
Olivia asked the chauffeur to bring them to Tiffany’s neighborhood.
On the way, Amelia called Tiffany so that she had time to prepare dinner.
After hanging up, Olivia said, “There’s no need to trouble Tiffany. You have troubled her enough by staying at her place. Although you are good friends, it’s not good to bother her too much”
Amelia smiled and said, “Mom, it’s all right. Tiff and I have been friends for many years. If I didn’t marry Oscar, we would have been living together. Furthermore, she loves Tony very much and likes to carry him and he also gets along with her. She and Kurt always hug and play with him. I, on the other hand, rarely get to hug my child.”
Olivia said pensively, “I haven’t seen Tony for half a month. I wonder if he can recognize me.”
“Mom, you love him so much. There’s no way that he can’t recognize you,” Amelia said.
The mood in the car was warm and peaceful.
Half an hour later, the car arrived at Tiffany’s neighborhood.
Before getting out of the car, Olivia said, “Norton, you can drive the car back. I heard that your son caught pneumonia. You can have a five-day leave to go home and spend time with him.”
Norton said gratefully, “Mrs. Clinton, thank you.”
“Don’t worry about it. You’ve worked for our family for many years and served us well. In the future, you should let me or the butler know if you have any difficulties. We can understand,” Olivia said.
Norton thanked her again.
Amelia held Olivia’s arm and got out of the car. Then, the four of them took the lift upstairs. However, before they even pressed the doorbell, Tiffany opened the door. She curtsied and said mischievously, “Welcome, Your Majesty.”
Olivia could not help herself but laugh.
Tiffany laughed too and hugged Olivia warmly. “Mrs. Clinton, I came up with this to welcome you. Do you like it?”
Mrs. Clinton was amused and liked Tiffany even more.
Even though Stephanie caused strife between them half a year ago, Tiffany did not take it to heart. She was rather mature and understanding.
“Tiffany, thank you,” Olivia said.
Tiffany held Olivia’s hand, led her in, and said, “Mr. and Mrs. Clinton, please come in. When Amelia called, I had just come back from grocery shopping. Later, Martha and I will cook dinner. I assure you that dinner will be ready in a couple of hours.”
Olivia smiled and said, “Take your time. It’s only 5 p.m. I’ll go and see Tony.”
Kurt came out with Anthony in his arms. Oscar’s mouth twitched unwittingly upon Kurt’s gentle demeanor. It was completely different from his past image.
“Mr. Clinton, Mrs. Clinton, Boss,” Kurt greeted with a serious expression.
Tiffany pointed at Kurt and said, “Mrs. Clinton, this straight-laced man is the bodyguard Oscar assigned to protect Amelia. Do you know about this?”
Olivia laughed at Tiffany’s introduction.
Tiffany then received Anthony from Kurt and passed him to Olivia.
Olivia felt her heart melting as she saw Anthony looking at her with his large round eyes.
“Tony, my darling grandson. I’m your grandmother. Do you remember me?” Olivia hugged Anthony and refused to let him go. Owen also stood closer and looked at him lovingly. Oscar was in Pillere for half a month and missed Anthony too. After all, Anthony was his first child. During Amelia’s hospitalization, he was unable to spend much time with Anthony. Other than taking care of Amelia, he had to deal with urgent documents. Anthony was always asleep by the time Oscar returned home to see him.
Therefore, Oscar also stood closer to look at Anthony. “Mom, let me hug him for a while.”
Olivia gladly passed Anthony to him. Initially, Oscar was a little at a loss about what to do. Still, he hugged him securely. Unfortunately, Anthony was uncooperative and began to cry in his arms.
Oscar looked at Amelia helplessly. Meanwhile, Olivia’s heart ached to see Anthony cry, so she quickly took him from Oscar. However, Anthony continued to cry in her arms. Olivia was a little flustered and kept cooing at him to calm him.
Nevertheless, Anthony kept crying. He was a docile newborn half a month ago. But now, Anthony would wail non-stop. He would start crying whenever something did not go his way and when someone unfamiliar hugged him.
Olivia asked in distress, “Is he hungry?”
Tiffany turned to Kurt and said, “Kurt, can you come over. I’ll leave Tony to you.”
Kurt went to Olivia and said, “Mrs. Clinton, please give him to me.”
Olivia had no choice but to hand Anthony over to Kurt.
Then, a miracle happened. The moment Kurt carried Anthony, he stopped crying. Both Olivia and Oscar were a little jealous of Kurt.
Oscar began to think that sending Kurt to protect Amelia was a mistake. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Tiffany patted Kurt’s back and said, “Good job, nanny!”
Then, she turned to Olivia and said, “Mrs. Clinton, in this past half month, Tony seems to like Kurt the best. Amelia and I both lost to him. I think he recognizes Kurt as his caregiver since Kurt sleeps with him at night and feeds him milk. Kurt is now his dedicated nanny. He does not seem like a bodyguard at all.”
After a pause, Tiffany said daringly, “Compared to Oscar, the actual father, Kurt is much competent in taking care of Tony.”
Olivia glanced at Oscar.
A brief flash of anger appeared in Oscar’s eyes, and he turned a little sullen.
Amelia glared at Tiffany, indicating her to stop fooling around.
“Mom, Dad, please sit and rest. I’ll ask Martha to make some tea. Let’s have dinner here before returning.” Amelia tried to switch the topic of conversation.
Olivia and Owen sat down. Meanwhile, Oscar went to Amelia and said, “Which one is your room? I’ll help you to pack up. Both you and Tony should move back home tonight. I can’t sleep without you.”
Amelia had no plans to move return with Oscar tonight. Although she had forgiven Olivia and the others, she still disliked the Clinton residence. It may have something to do with what happened
between her and Stephanie.
What Stephanie did frightened and disgusted her. The fact that Stephanie was willing to harm her unborn nephew made her inhuman and worse than a beast.
Those who are willing to harm children do not have a conscience. Children are innocent. How can anyone bear to hurt them?
Stephanie must be evil. I don’t believe that it was a lapse of judgment on her part. I can never see her as my sister-in-law.
People always found excuses for hating someone. Although Amelia rarely hated anyone, Stephanie disgusted her.
“If you don’t want to return to the Clinton residence, we can return to our apartment. It’s near Clinton Corporations, so it’s convenient for me to go to work,” Oscar said.
Amelia glanced at Olivia.
Olivia met her gaze and said calmly, “It’s fine if you prefer to return to the apartment. When I’m free, I will stay with you in the apartment for a few days. Young people should have their personal space. So I won’t force you.”
Since Olivia said that, it would seem unreasonable if Amelia refused to return.
Amelia considered for a moment and said, “Let’s go back to the Clinton residence. There are many maids there, so they can help us to look after Tony. Most importantly, Mom and Dad can see him any time.
Oscar couldn’t help but smile and brightened up.
Olivia smiled too.
Tiffany glanced at Amelia but did not say anything. After all, she was not a family member, so it was not her place to say anything.
Therefore, she sought to change the topic of conversation. “Amelia, you should sit down with Mrs. Clinton. I’ll prepare dinner with Martha. Dinner shall be ready soon.”
“Let me help you,” Amelia said and stood up.
“No, it’s all right. You can stay to chat with Mrs. Clinton. You might get in our way in the kitchen. Only Martha and I should work in the kitchen so that dinner will be ready faster,” Tiffany said.
