Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 599 Investment

Amelia squatted down. “Do you remember what I’ve told you, Tony?”

Tony said: “You told me that Granny and Granddad would be too worried for Uncle Spencer to be in a good mood, and for me to behave myself. I was! All I wanted was to just say hello to them.”

At his words, Amelia felt a trace of resentment in her heart.

“The hospital’s no place for a young child, Amelia,” Dominic added. “It smells strongly of medicine. Your mother and I have to take care of your brother. Take Tony home. When Spencer feels better, all three of us will go to see Tony.”

Amelia’s fist loosened.

“Tony is your grandson, Dad,” Oscar said. “Don’t you miss him at all?”

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Dominic’s face.

“Oscar, don’t get me wrong,” he replied with a sheepish grin. “I think Tony is too delicate like a doll. Having come from a small place, we haven’t seen much of the world. I’m afraid that our blunt ways will scare him.”

Melanie gave Tony a complicated look. “I’m going in to check on our son, Dominic. Forgive me for not being good enough for such an exquisite grandson.” Without another word, she strode off into the ward.

Dominic was even more embarrassed.

“I’d better go in and check on your mother, Amelia.” Dominic also made an excuse to enter the ward.

“Grandpa and Granny don’t really like me, do they?” Tony asked quietly, looking hurt.

“It’s not like that, Tony,” Amelia said patiently. “They’re just worried about Uncle Spencer. I promise to bring you to see them once he gets better, all right?”

Tony looked at his mother with bright eyes and made the lie much more difficult for her to tell.

“I’m sorry, Tony,” Amelia said guiltily. I shouldn’t have brought Tony to the hospital. I didn’t know that they are cruel enough to ignore a child’s feelings to this extent.

Tony placed his little hand on Amelia’s face. The warmth of his hand spread through her skin into her bloodstream.

“If you will just say the word, Mommy, I will make Grandpa and Granny love me,” Tony assured.

Amelia felt warmth in her heart.

“You don’t need to,” she replied with a smile. “I know you are a good boy. There is no need to aggrieve yourself for me.”

Tony wrinkled his sharp little nose. “But Mommy, I don’t like it when someone makes you feel bad.”

Oscar picked him up with such suddenness that Tony gave an exclamation of shock before staring at Oscar. “What are you doing, Big Meanie? Let me down.”

Oscar looked down at him from full height. “Watch your tongue, little man. I’m taking you and your mother out for a big dinner at this delicious restaurant I found. You’re going to love the food there. After that, we can go to an amusement park. Haven’t you always wanted to ride the Ferris wheel?”

Like a charm, Tony’s attention was indeed diverted.

Oscar took his wife and son for a drink before proceeding with the plan of the restaurant and then to the amusement park.

Accompanied by Oscar, Tony went twice on the Ferris wheel. Even after the rides, he was still very excited. Half an hour later, however, he approached Amelia with his hand on his stomach. “My tummy hurts, Mommy,” he groaned. “I want to go to the toilet.”

Oscar picked him up immediately and the family of three hurriedly looked for the bathroom.

It was nearly an hour later when Tony emerged. His little face was pale, and his legs were shaky.
