Too Much to Bear, My Love Chapter 206
Cassie was throwing insults at June. His face went livid as he strode forward. Suddenly, Cassie went
crazy and shouted out loud when she saw June’s facial expression. “Ah! Don’t come any closer!
Otherwise, I will call the police.”
Right at that moment, Elizabeth and Charlie pushed the door opened and rushed into the ward.
“Cassie, are you okay?” Being overprotective, Elizabeth anxiously ran towards her daughter and
checked on her from head to toe. “What happened? What’s going on? Are you hurt?”
As if seeing a lifeline, Cassie quickly buried her face in Elizabeth’s arms. “Mom, he’s trying to kill me. You
must save me.”
Elizabeth looked towards June. Instinctively, she stood in front of Cassie to protect her.
He looks very familiar… After pondering for a while, Elizabeth remembered who it was. “June?”
June’s menacing expression had already disappeared when the Yards rushed in. Standing before
Elizabeth, June appeared gentle and polite.
“Mrs. Yard, I’m June. Nice to meet you.” June bowed courteously to show her respect.
What a well-mannered, charming, and good-looking gentlemen! Doubt flashed across Elizabeth’s eyes.
After all, she was still concerned about her daughter. “What are you doing here? Cassie said that you
were going to kill here? What exactly is going on?”
June took a look at Cassie in Elizabeth’s arm and replied gently, “Mrs. Yard, that was just a
misunderstanding. Cassie and I were a couple when we were in Erihal, but she suddenly decided to end
our relationship and left. I’m confused. So, I purposely set my career in Erihal aside and come to
Chanaea. I just needed an explanation from her. I can’t believe she would accuse me of killing her. I
really have no idea what is going on too.”
The suspicion in Elizabeth’s eyes grew even intense.
“Cassie, is that true?” Elizabeth asked.
Cassie lifted her head. With Elizabeth and Charlie around, she felt safe. Hence, with a fierce glare, she
said, “Mom, don’t listen to his nonsense! He is a demon. He tried to strangle me to death like a maniac
the moment he entered the ward. If I didn’t struggle to resist him just now, you would probably never get
to see your one and only daughter anymore.”
Elizabeth looked at June.
He raised his hands innocently. “Mr. and Mrs. Yard, this is my fault. I shouldn’t be worried about Cassie’s
condition. I really didn’t know why she would think it that way. She was gasping heavily for breath just
now. I was just checking on her to make sure she was all right. I meant no harm.”
Cassie gritted her teeth in anger. She did not expect June to be that shameless.
“June, you’re such an a**hole! Stop bullshitting here. You were trying to kill me! You—”
“Enough!” Charlie interrupted.
Cassie stared at Charlie in disbelief.
Veins popped up on Charlie’s forehead. He clenched his fists tightly and released. Then, he said weakly,
“Cassie, you’ve been throwing tantrums and crying for the entire month. Knock it off. It’s time for you to
grow up. Stop wailing like a kid whenever things are not going your way. You’re not only tiring yourself
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbut also your mom and me. Give it a rest, will you?”
Cassie looked at Charlie, feeling wronged.
“Dad, he was really trying to kill me. Don’t you care about your daughter?” Cassie bit her lips and asked
aggrievedly.
“You’re not even scared of killing yourself. Are you afraid of being killed by someone else?” Charlie was
obviously implying that Cassie staged the whole thing by herself.
Cassie had left the whole family in torment. Her sweet and warm family was about to fall apart. She was
giving Charlie a big headache. He couldn’t even keep up with the company’s matters anymore.
Cassie was at a loss for words.
At that point, Elizabeth clearly took Charlie’s side.
“Cassie, you’re a grown woman. You lost your baby, and you attempted suicide. Besides, you’ve been
staying in the hospital for over a month. Of course, you can continue staying here if you think it makes
you feel comfortable. The only thing I’ll ask of you is to behave yourself. Stop causing a scene all the
time. The Yards are a noble family, but now even the hospital has already raised their voice about your
issues. You’re really making your father and I look really bad here.”
Elizabeth advised earnestly.
At that moment, Cassie felt like she had been betrayed by everyone. Her family—the people closest to
her—had turned their back against her. None of them believed in her words and there was no way she
could defend herself.
Right at that moment, June stepped up to play the role of a peacemaker. He was polite and humble,
leaving nothing but a good impression.
“Mr. and Mrs. Yard, please don’t be mad. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have acted in haste. I just wanted to
know the reason why she broke up with me. I didn’t mean for her to get scolded by both of you. You two
are the closest people to her. She might feel hurt to hear you saying those words.”
Subconsciously, Elizabeth took a glance at June. This man whom Cassie once claimed to be useless
had developed a more positive impression in her heart.
To Elizabeth, at least June was good-looking and well-mannered, carrying himself with great nobility.
Apart from that, he treated elders respectfully. He was definitely so much better as compared to most of
the young people nowadays. She even thought that June would probably be a better son-in-law of the
Yard family than Oscar.
“June, please have a seat. We can talk things out later.” There was a change in Elizabeth’s attitude
towards June.
June was aware that he had gained her trust.
Cassie couldn’t believe her eyes and said angrily, “Mom, he is a murderer! He tried to kill me earlier. How
can you let him off?”
Elizabeth shot her a sideways glance and smiled at June. “June, have a seat. My husband and I will talk
to you. Cassie is immature and ignorant. Please don’t take her words to heart.”
June replied courteously, “Mrs. Yard, please don’t say that. I love Cassie. We were together for almost
four years. I even mentioned to my parents that I would introduce Cassie to them. However, little did I
expect that she would break up with me suddenly. I have no choice but to delay the whole plan.”
Meanwhile, Charlie was sizing him up and sounded out, “Have you and Cassie been together before?
Why hasn’t she told me about it?”
June lowered his head and pretended to be dejected.
“Mr. Yard, let me be frank with you. We were in a relationship, but Cassie once confessed that she has
feelings for another person. Perhaps, she still couldn’t get over him. That’s why she chose to break up
with me and return here. But I love her. I’m not willing to let her go just like that. Therefore, I follow her
back here. I didn’t expect her to be so emotionally unstable. She even thought that I was going to kill her.
However, that’s not the case. I just love her so much,” June said with genuine emotions.
Women were emotional creatures. Elizabeth was moved by June’s heartfelt remarks and took his side.
Charlie was clearly much more rational. After all, he had experienced a lot in all his years of doing
business. It was impossible for him to believe in June’s words so easily.
“Cassie, is that true?”
She stared at June resentfully and answered, “Dad, don’t listen to his bullshit. I have never been in a
relationship with him. I love Oscar. As for him, he is, at most, just a barking dog. Can you understand a
dog’s words?”
Cassie’s words were harsh. Charlie couldn’t help but frown at what she said. However, June was as calm
as usual, not showing any emotions on his face.
Charlie took a few glances at June. He seemed to know that Cassie had offended someone she
shouldn’t have. Unfortunately, her mind was always not clear, especially at such a crucial moment.
“Cassie, cut it out!” Charlie berated strictly.
Cassie felt deeply wronged. She started feeling pain in her healing wrist.
She got infuriated and walked off immediately, turning a deaf ear to Elizabeth who was shouting behind
her.
Elizabeth felt rather embarrassed. She said, “June, please don’t mind her. It’s our fault for spoiling
Cassie.”
June shook his head and replied, “Mrs. Yard, no matter what happens, she is still the woman I love.
Otherwise, I would never sail across the ocean and come all the way just for her. If both of you are willing
to entrust her with me, I would love to ask for my family’s permission to set up a new branch company
here. I believe that my family would be very supportive of my decision.”
Elizabeth’s eyes lit up upon hearing his words.
“June, would you mind sharing with us what business is your family dealing in?”
June answered his family name truthfully.
Then, Charlie and Elizabeth exchanged shocking glances.
They were surprised to find out that June’s family had been a prestigious family for over a century. They
were indeed from the upper-class society. June’s family was much more wealthier and powerful than the
Yard family. June was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
Elizabeth was a quick thinker. She immediately behaved like his mother-in-law. After all, she had been
feeling defeated because of Oscar. She knew that Oscar was never going to marry her daughter. In that
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcase, why not turn to someone with a more powerful background? With that, the Yards would be treated
with great honor. Moreover, she wanted to give the Clintons a big slap on their faces. It was fine that the
Clintons didn’t want the daughter of the Yard family to be their daughter-in-law. She still had other
wealthy men from the upper-class society. In fact, Elizabeth wanted to take advantage of June and seek
revenge on the Clintons.
It was just a matter of time.
Elizabeth was a narrow-minded person who held grudges. She wouldn’t forget and forgive easily.
“June, I’m more than welcome to have you here, especially when you’re here for Cassie. You look really
smart and remarkably attractive. You have this great charisma. You and Cassie look so well together.
Both of you are such a match made in heaven.” Elizabeth showered him with compliments. “You don’t
have to worry about Cassie. I’ll speak for you. Your charming appearance and gentlemanly demeanor
are pleasing to the eyes. Cassie is such a fool to have let you go. I won’t let her act foolishly this time.
Don’t worry about that.”
June smiled gently.
“Thank you, Mrs. Yard. Thank you for your help. If there is anything you guys need in the future, please
feel free to ask,” June offered sincerely.
June had successfully made a great first impression on Charlie and Elizabeth.
Charlie was a businessman. He understood that business was business. Perhaps, it was best for Cassie
to marry June. First of all, Cassie deserved a reliable man like June. After all, it was better to be the
man’s wife than be a mistress of a man. On the other hand, with the help of June’s family background,
Yard Group could even expand into Erihal market. That would be a perfect opportunity. He would never
ever let this chance slip away.
Then, June took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Charlie in a serious manner. “Mr.
Yard, this is my business card. My number is on it. Please feel free to call me if you need anything.”
Charlie took over his business card. Suddenly, he noticed his hands and asked, “What happened to your
hand? It looks pretty severe.”
June smiled nonchalantly and answered, “I accidentally hurt my hand when I was cutting fruit. It’s nothing
serious. But still, thank you for asking.”
Charlie nodded.
Elizabeth looked worried. “You cut yourself? It looks quite serious. Do you want me to take you to the
doctor? That must be painful.”
June smiled gently. “Mrs. Yard, thanks for your concern. I’m really fine. It might look a little serious, but
actually, it’s not that bad.”
“If you’re feeling hurt, just let me know. We’re going to be a family in the future. You don’t have to be so
polite with us. I’ll let Cassie know later. She should care more about you instead of wasting her time on
someone she shouldn’t.”
“Thank you, Mrs. Yard.”
In the ward, June was having a good time talking to the Yards. The three of them, in a way, had reached
some kind of consensus.
