Too Much to Bear, My Love Chapter 199
Tiffany’s eyes were gleaming with excitement as she looked at Kurt and asked, “So, what’s the verdict?
Are you interested in being the leading character of my next ?”
Kurt averted his gaze and rejected, “I’m not interested.”
Tiffany pouted, but she didn’t give up. She simply pointed at Amelia and asked, “Amelia is your new
employer, right?”
Kurt nodded firmly with a straight face on.
“You will obey her commands, right?” Get new chapters update on heart.com
Kurt nodded once more.
“Do you know that I am her best friend?”
Kurt shook his head.
Tiffany wasn’t angry at his response. She simply pointed out, “Well, now you know. I am her best friend.”
Kurt didn’t respond to that.
Still, Tiffany wasn’t discouraged. She informed him, “Amelia is the one who asked me to write this
because she wanted to read something in that genre. Isn’t your job, as her bodyguard, to fulfill your
employer’s wish?”
As expected, Kurt started thinking about it.
Amelia had no choice but to step up because her name was being used to pressure an innocent man.
She said, “Tiff, stop messing with the guy. You’re on the verge of scaring him away.”
Before Tiffany could speak up, Kurt turned to Amelia. He remained serious when he asked, “Ma’am, is
that your wish?”
Amelia was startled when Kurt regarded her as “Ma’am.”
“Please, just call me Amelia. There’s no need to be so polite. Also, Tiff was just joking and messing with
you earlier,” replied Amelia.
Tiffany simply shrugged.
Kurt turned his attention to Oscar. The latter instructed, “If Tiffany wants to write an action-themed ,
then try your best to accommodate her.”
Kurt nodded and stood up straight at the side.
Tiffany gave Oscar a thumbs up for that. She was basically saying, Good job, thank you for being so
cooperative today, Oscar.
“Alright, that’s enough. Amelia is tired, so get out of the room if you guys are going to discuss the plot of
the ,” added Oscar. He was basically chasing everyone out.
Tiffany doesn’t mind being asked to leave. She went to Kurt right away and grinned brightly before
saying, “This way, Kurt. Let’s go talk about whether you actually know kung fu.”
Kurt felt helpless, but he couldn’t disobey a direct order, so he exited the room with Tiffany. The second
they got out, Tiffany’s excited voice resonated across the space they were in.
“Kurt, you really do know kung fu, don’t you? Please, won’t you teach me? I admired heroes like you the

Hearing their conversation from her bed, all Amelia could do was grin helplessly.
“Seems like Tiff is going to be a little wild today,” commented Amelia. She honestly didn’t know if she
should laugh or cry about the situation.
Oscar gazed at her and held her hand in his palm before he promised, “Don’t worry, I won’t go after
Tiffany. I won’t hurt her as long as she didn’t do anything to hurt you.”
Amelia couldn’t help tearing up a little.
Those felt like the most touching words Oscar had ever said to her.
If a man didn’t care about a woman, he would not give a sh*t about her friends. Similarly, if a man was
taking care of the woman’s friends and family, it would mean that he truly loved the woman and was
committed to her.
“Mr. Clinton…”
Oscar squeezed her hand. His tone was a little displeased when he complained, “Did you forget what I
said? Why are you still calling me Mr. Clinton?”
Amelia grinned a little. She still looked sickly pale, but her smile was ever so bright.
Oscar felt like he could drown in that beautiful smile.
The two of them stared at each other for a long while before Oscar tilted his head toward her and kissed
her lips.
Amelia became a little breathless after the kiss. Oscar gazed at her and asked in a caring tone, “Are you
okay?”
Amelia stared shyly at him. Her pale face had since turned a little red from blushing too much.
Oscar loved the way she looked when she was shy and a little coquettish. He reached out to caress her
face before he suddenly declared boldly, “I love you.”
Amelia was completely stunned. Her eyes bulged, and she stared into his eyes in disbelief.
Oscar smiled lovingly before he ran his fingers through her hair.
“Your eyes are big enough as they are. There’s no need for you to make them any bigger,” teased Oscar.
Tears swirled inside Amelia’s eyes. She couldn’t stop them from rolling down her cheeks.
She seemed a little shy when she muttered, “Uh, darling, what did you just say just now? Can you repeat
it? I didn’t quite catch that last part.”
Oscar lovingly helped wipe her tears away and said, “I love you! Marrying you is the best honor I get to
have, and I am lucky to be with you. That, my love, is the truth.”
Overwhelming surprise and happiness filled Amelia’s heart because she knew that Oscar had always
seen himself as a being who was above lying. For a moment there, Amelia did not know how to react.
She felt like her happiness came at a surprising moment and was completely out of her anticipation. It
struck her mind and turned her vocabulary into a bunch of random alphabets.
Amelia smiled, but she cried at the very next second.
Her tears startled Oscar.
He worried that her wild emotions would cause her to tear her own stitches, so he quickly cooed, “Calm
down, Amelia. You haven’t recovered yet, and you can’t afford to be so excited. If you want, I will say
those three words to you every day after you’ve recovered. I promise.”
Amelia felt like her heart was riding a rollercoaster. She had been waiting for years, and she finally got to
hear Oscar say that he loved her. Cassie might still pose a threat to their love, but at least at that
moment, Amelia was the one being loved.
She would go through hell with him so long as his love for her remained strong and firm.
With both their hearts opened to each other, Amelia and Oscar instinctively got closer.
Oscar draped his hand over Amelia’s eyes and advised, “Take a nap. Don’t wear yourself out.”
Amelia didn’t complain. She closed her eyes obediently.
Maybe it was because she just had her surgery, but Amelia became sleepy even though she had just
woken up. She fell asleep almost immediately after she closed her eyes.
Oscar gazed at her, his heart aching for her.
No one knew how long Oscar stared, but he eventually got his phone out to call Donnie.
“Donnie, tell my parents what my sister did. You know what to do,” instructed Oscar without hesitation.
He hung up the call right after.
After getting his instructions, Donnie sent an anonymous message to Olivia to tell her about how
Stephanie had hired someone to kill Amelia. Olivia was surprised. She couldn’t believe that her daughter
would do something like that, but she later calmed down and called Stephanie.
Olivia tried her best to suppress her anger and asked, “Stephanie, where are you?”
Stephani had a guilty conscience and she was worried that Olivia had called to interrogate her. As such,
the former quickly lied, “I’m out shopping with my friends. What’s up?”
“I’ve been thinking that it feels like it has been a while since we last chatted, so I whipped up your
favorite dishes. I miss you. Will you come home and spend some time with your mom?” asked Olivia
sweetly.
Stephanie was obviously tempted, but she was still wary.
“Mom, it’s just a meal, right? There’s nothing else?”
Olivia refuted, “What else could there be? Or… did you do something?”
Stephanie sighed a breath of relief and promised, “I’ll head home now, Mom.”
The truth was that Stephanie would always want to hang out with her mother.
When Stephanie got home, the first thing she saw was her parents sitting on the sofa with solemn
expressions on. She instinctively backed away because she knew that the worst had happened. Her
mother didn’t ask her to come home to have a meal together. Shoot, this is a murder trial! D*rn it. That
stupid brother of mine must have told them everything…
Stephanie’s limbs turned cold. She didn’t know what to do. Her spoilt attitude and fearlessness stemmed
from the unconditional love that her family gave her. She would be nothing without the Clintons
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmprotecting her.
For a moment, Stephanie had the urge to just turn around and flee.
Unfortunately, she hadn’t had a chance to implement her plan before Olivia ordered, “Come over now
that you’re home.”
Stephanie inched over slowly and guiltily.
“Dad, Mom,” greeted Stephanie.
Olivia tilted her head up and looked at her daughter before she pointed at the sofa on the opposite side.
She instructed, “Take a seat.”
Stephanie was rarely that obedient, but she sat down as requested.
“I have a question for you, Stephanie. Are you the mastermind behind Amelia’s car accident?”
interrogated Olivia directly.
Stephanie’s heart skipped a beat, but she put on an oblivious expression and claimed, “Mom, what are
you talking about?”
Olivia suddenly slammed her palm on the sofa and scolded, “You’re still denying it? I’ve already learned
the truth. Are you insane? How could you do something as vile as hiring someone to kill your own family
member? What would you do if something were to happen to Amelia and her unborn baby?”
Stephanie was so scared that she sprung from the sofa.
In a way, she was just a bully who would hurt the weak but fear the strong. She would falter as soon as
she met an actual opponent. Everything she had at that moment was provided by the Clintons. If she got
disowned, she would be nothing more than an idiot who couldn’t even take care of herself.
Her only ability was to differentiate between a real and a fake branded bag. Even though she graduated
from a great university, she could never bring herself to actually start working. She was already used to a
luxurious lifestyle, so she wouldn’t just accept any random jobs.
Mothers knew everything about their daughters.
Stephanie’s reaction told Olivia everything, and the latter’s heart gripped as disappointment engulfed her.
“Stephanie, you actually did something so vile?”
Stephanie instantly panicked, and she ended up complaining, “Oscar told you about this, didn’t he? Why
is everyone siding with that b*tch, Amelia? Everyone is broken-hearted when her finger got hurt, but no
one cared if I was okay. She’s just an outsider. I am the real daughter of the Clintons, so what gives her
the right to be the center of everybody’s attention? You and Oscar had your eyes on her as soon as she
showed up! I’ve always looked up to Oscar and thought that he can do anything. It feels as if anything is
possible with him around. Also, I love you, Mom. If possible, I want to be the only one you love, but
everything changed when Amelia came into our lives. My position within the family became lower and
lower. I never liked her in the first place, and all I feel for her now is hatred. I want nothing more than to
watch her die!”
Olivia and Owen were stunned. They couldn’t believe that their daughter would actually say something
like that.
It was one thing to be spoiled, and that was forgivable. But the intention to commit murder was
something else entirely, and that was wrong. Get new chapters update on heart.com
