Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 131 Madly In Love

Carter leaned on the pillow and said, “Granddad, you were young once. I’m sure you’d been madly in love before. It’s difficult for a man to meet a woman who he’s willing to give everything up for. So, once he meets her, she’ll be the only one for him and he would do anything for her. I fell in love with Amelia at first sight. She’s beautiful inside and out and is respectful to her elders. It’s hard not to fall for such a woman.”

Abel was speechless.

The passions of love were a thing of the past for Abel and he had forgotten about the feelings and thoughts he had back then. Talking about it now, Abel recalled what it felt like to be in love. It left a sweet feeling in his heart.

Even though a few decades had already passed, he was unable to forget the romance he had back then.

Abel had spent many years focusing on business and was supposed to be more hard-hearted and decisive. However, the older he was, the more softhearted he became, especially when facing his family.

“Carter, Amelia’s already someone else’s wife. I think you should let go of your feelings for her. The two of you aren’t destined to be together in this lifetime,” said Abel sincerely.

“If she’s happy in her marriage, I’ll quietly watch over her. If her marriage falls apart, I’ll save her from it. I don’t intend to give her up in this lifetime.”

Abel looked Carter in the eye and asked, “Do you mean that other than Amelia, you won’t consider marrying any other woman?”

“Granddad, marriage is just a formality. All those couples get is a certificate.”

“Even if it’s only just a certificate, I want you to get married. I’m already almost at the end of my life. I don’t want to die without seeing my great-grandchild.”

“Two of my cousins are married, and another is already pregnant with a child. Your great-grandchild will come soon enough. Just don’t complain that you have too many to take care of later on.”

Carter had skillfully deflected the problem away from him.

Abel glared at him and replied, “Don’t try to avoid the topic. I’ll give you a deadline. If she’s still happily married by the time you’re thirty, then you have to get married. I’ll personally select a suitable wife for you amongst the daughters of those rich families.”

Carter closed his eyes. “Granddad, you have promised not to interfere with my marriage.”

Abel replied, “You’re still young. It’s the best time to work on your career now, so I won’t intervene. But by the time you’re thirty, your career would be successful and it would be the right time to start a family. If you marry the daughter of a rich family, it’ll be beneficial to the business too.”

Carter looked at Abel. “Given the power of the Scotts, I don’t think I need to marry a rich lady to help the business, right? That would make me look really useless.”

Abel replied, “If you don’t want a rich lady, fine. But you have to get married either way. Amelia’s already married. You’ll never have a future with her. Just get over your feelings.”
