Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 853 Inviting Trouble

Startled, Oscar instinctively wanted to soothe the sorrow in Amelia's eyes.

He had already stepped forward, but unexpectedly, someone pulled his arm in the next second.

“Oscar, what are you trying to do?” Isabella asked pitifully.

Oscar regained his senses and smiled at her before replying, “Nothing.”

Olivia looked at the interaction between the duo, then at Amelia, who stood at the stairs and seemed hesitant to come down. A cold glint flashed across her eyes as she chastised, “Oscar, what in the world are you doing? Amelia is your wife, yet you used Isabella to upset her. Are you trying to humiliate her? Before this, I was angry with Amelia for leaving with Tony, but you insisted on remarrying her, so I gave in. The three of you should now be living a happy life together as a family, so what's the meaning of this? Are you trying to send me to an early grave because you think I'm too healthy?”

Oscar's expression turned grim, yet a doubtful glint flashed in his eyes. Subconsciously, he turned to look at Isabella, who gave him an innocent look before uttering softly, “Oscar, you won't leave me, right?”

Concealing the puzzlement in his eyes, Oscar wrapped his arm around her waist and claimed, “Mom, Isabella is the woman I love. Regardless of what you think about her, I'll never break up with her.”

Hearing that, Olivia scoffed in anger.

“You're saying the woman you love is Isabella?” To Olivia, his words were an absurd assertion. “Who is Amelia to you, then? Oscar, even if you want to agitate Amelia, you shouldn't make up a story like that. Do you know how hurtful that is?”

Oscar frowned and answered, “Who is Amelia? Mom, why do you keep bringing her up? There isn't anything between her and me.”

When she heard his response, Olivia's knees weakened, and her expression turned gloomy. It was only then she realized the seriousness of the situation. She knew Oscar wouldn't possibly joke about such a thing childishly. Everything was fine yesterday, but now he's acting as though he's lost his memory. Of course, it'll arouse anyone's suspicion to hear that.

Olivia glanced at Isabella calmly, an indescribable glint flashing in her eyes. Clenching her fists, she suppressed the bewilderment in her chest before she beckoned to Amelia, who was still standing at the staircase.

“Amelia, hurry and come downstairs. Don't fight with your husband. You know my heart can't handle the stress,” Olivia suggested in a gentle voice. She acted as if she did not notice the change in Oscar's emotions.

After hesitating for a moment, Amelia took a deep breath and walked down.

She went straight to Oscar, ignoring that he was holding Isabella's hand tightly. “Oscar, do you truly not know me?” she questioned calmly.

Inadvertently, many scenes crossed Oscar's mind when he stared intently at her. His heart suddenly softened, and he had the urge to reach out to touch the woman in front of him. Moreover, a niggling sensation at the back of his mind kept telling him the woman looked very familiar.

Meanwhile, Isabella gripped his hand tightly while shooting daggers at Amelia. “Ms. Winters, I'm the one Oscar loves. I hope that you won't disturb our life.” Her tone sounded like she was staking her claim on Oscar. With that, she raised her head to look at Oscar before she uttered pitifully, “Oscar, didn't you hate her in the past? Since you claim that you despise her, there's no way that you can't remember her.” Professor Zabinski told me he switched Oscar's memories of me with Amelia. But why can't he recall her now? After the effects of the medication and deep hypnosis, Oscar should hate Amelia, so why is this happening?

Oscar lowered his head to look at her and queried, “Should I hate her?”

Immediately, Isabella's heart sank before she responded awkwardly, “Oscar, don't tell me you like her?”

Oscar lifted his hand to tap her forehead and said gently, “Don't overthink. You're the only one I love.” Despite saying so, there was not much warmth within his eyes.

Compared to Isabella, he could not bring himself to be ruthless to Amelia. Instead, he kept feeling as though he had known the latter for a long time.

“Oscar, have you truly forgotten me? If you're just kidding, I'm willing to wait for you, no matter how long it takes for the joke to end. You promised to keep me company until we grow old, and then we'll visit all the beautiful places in the country together. Besides that, you also mentioned we'll build a classical bamboo building at the beach when we're older, where we could wake up hearing the sound of the ocean. I'll never forget all the promises you've made, and I'll wait until the day you snap back to your senses. Don't let me wait for too long, okay?” she asked with her lips curled
