Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 137

Chapter 137 He Is Not That Bad After All

Tiffany gave her an understanding nod. This was the benefit of being rich. It would not take a lot of explanation for people to know your status.

“It seems like Oscar is not that bad after all. He might have another woman, but he still knows you’re his wife and doesn’t make things difficult for you. I’d really teach him a lesson if he didn’t acknowledge you as his wife,” Tiffany remarked.

“Well, he might not be able to give me his full devotion, but he’s actually quite nice to me,” Amelia said, coming to Oscar’s defense, “He makes sure I lack nothing and gave me a gold card with an unlimited spending limit. My life is actually pretty good compared to other women in my situation. It’s just that I got greedy and started coveting his heart. I forgot that life’s never perfect. We can’t have everything.”

“Babe, I don’t like how you’re talking about yourself. You can’t blame yourself for falling for him. It’s totally natural that you want him only to yourself. What’s wrong with that? Besides, you’re really tolerant of him. If I were you, I would have broken his limbs,” Tiffany replied.

Amelia smiled but did not answer.

Tiffany rubbed her nose consciously and fell into silence. She was just speaking her mind, but frankly speaking, if she had really fallen for someone, she would be heartbroken if that person had an affair. She would not even think about hurting him.

Although she professed to stay single, she still yearned for love. She hoped her Mr. Right would come to her one day too. It was just that dream died out slowly after a wait too long.

A knock came from the door. “Come in,” Tiffany said.

The waitress came in. “Mrs. Clinton, your friend is here.”

She moved aside and ushered Derrick in.

Amelia was stunned when she saw Derrick. It took her a few seconds to finally come around again. No one could stand unfazed in front of such an exquisite-looking being. Yet, despite her racing heartbeat and her awe of Derrick, she tried to compose herself.

He walked in confidently and browsed at Amelia casually before landing his gaze on Tiffany.

Amelia had already gathered herself when Derrick came closer to the table. A polite smile hung on her lips as she stood up and shook his hand.

“You must be Mr. Hisson. Nice to meet you.”

“Just Derrick will do. And you are…?”

“Amelia Winters. Tiff and I share the same last name, but we’re not related. We’ve been friends for many years. Just call me Amelia,” she replied statement of factly.

Derrick took a quick and unnoticeable glance at Amelia as she introduced herself. He was impressed by her mannerism and demeanor. She had gotten on his good side just from their brief interaction.
