Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 118 Blame

“Why haven’t you left?” Elizabeth glanced at Tiffany and Amelia impatiently.

“Ms. Yard fainted because of me. Hence, I would like to apologize when she awakes before I leave.” Tiffany replied.

Elizabeth turned to Oscar and said angrily, “Oscar, please take them away right now. I’ll take good care of Cassie here. I wouldn’t want her to be upset when she wakes up to their sight. I only have one daughter and she means the world to me.”

Oscar glanced at Cassie before responding, “Alright, I’ll send them home then, Mrs. Yard. Please call me when she’s awake.”

Elizabeth nodded.

Then, Oscar walked out of the room. Tiffany and Amelia looked at each other and decided to follow him.

Oscar leaned on the wall outside of the ward as he eyed Amelia who had just left the ward. Amelia’s heart skipped a beat as she quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, Mr. Clinton. I messed thing up.”

Tiffany stood in front of her and said, “Mr. Clinton, it was me who urged her to visit the hospital. Besides, it was my fault that Cassie passed out. So, I’m willing to take full responsibility for whatever that’s happened today. It had nothing to do with Amelia.”

Oscar glanced at her meaningfully before saying, “Let’s go downstairs.”

Both Tiffany and Amelia were taken back by his calm response as they followed him.

“Mr. Clinton, so you’ve forgiven us?” Tiffany asked out of curiosity.

Oscar continued walking as he said coldly.

“Listen, Tiffany. I’ve given you many chances for Amelia’s sake. However, I’m running out of patience. Hence, don’t you ever test me again, or else you’ll have to bear a price that you can’t pay.”

Tiffany shuddered at his words as Amelia grabbed her hand, indicating that she should stop talking.

Hence, Tiffany swallowed her words.

“Mr. Clinton, I’m really sorry for what happened today. I promise it won’t happen again.”

Oscar stopped in his tracks and turned to face Amelia. “We can talk about this when we get home.”

Once they reached the bottom floor, Oscar immediately got into the car. Amelia and Tiffany smiled bitterly at each other before getting into the car.

Oscar leaned over to open the door of the passenger’s seat and said, “You should sit here.”

Amelia nodded and did as she was told.

Oscar was silent during the entire car ride home. Hence, Tiffany and Amelia also dared not say anything under such a tense atmosphere.

Oscar’s car arrived at the entrance of Tiffany’s neighborhood. “Mr. Clinton, I’m very sorry for what happened today. I was responsible for Ms. Yard’s fainting. I couldn’t bear to see Ms. Yard making such accusations against Amelia. Hence, my emotions got the best of me and I said some words out of anger. I’m also willing to take the blame. Please leave Amelia out of this as she had nothing to do with this. She’s still pregnant so I hope you’d be gentle with your words.” Tiffany explained before she got out of the car.
