Too Much to Bear, My Love Chapter 171
Elizabeth sneered as she stared coldly at Charlie. “Charlie Yard, I’ve finally seen your true colors. You love Olivia, and you pander to her son’s every whim. But you don’t even care that your own daughter is now facing a life and death situation in the operating room. What a great husband and father you are.”
Charlie looked defeated and sighed, “You’re being irrational, Elizabeth, and I don’t want to argue with you.”
Upon hearing that, Elizabeth’s face contorted even more with rage.
“Is that your guilty conscience, Charlie? You had a sordid affair with Olivia, and now you’re even covering up for her son. What? Are you afraid that if Oscar found out about it, he will look down on you for being a good-for-nothing hypocrite?”
Her words dripped with so much sarcasm that Charlie couldn’t stand it any longer. “That’s enough from you!” he bellowed.
Despite that, Elizabeth cackled even louder, to a point where she looked almost maniacal.
“Feeling guilty, aren’t you?”
Charlie was silent. At this point, he knew it’d be impossible to talk sense into someone who was being unreasonable.
Elizabeth continued, “You are a heartless hypocrite, and that makes Olivia a shameless b*tch!”
As soon the words left her mouth, Elizabeth felt a tight slap to her face. She instinctively brought her hand up to where she had just been slapped and looked helplessly at Oscar.
Even Charlie was taken aback. He never expected Oscar to be that heavy-handed.
“Oscar, you… “ Charlie wanted to speak but eventually held his tongue.
Oscar’s expression was dark as he glowered at Elizabeth. “Mrs. Yard, I never expected Cassie to be suicidal. I will make it up to her, but please do not drag my mother into this. She is a respectable woman, and I will not let you tarnish her reputation.”
Elizabeth could still feel the burn on her cheek right then. She was humiliated, but that slap did also knock some sense back into her.
With that, she straightened herself up and raked through her hair. It didn’t take long before she regained her poise and composure. If it hadn’t been the handprint on her face, one wouldn’t have known that she had thrown a fit only a while ago.
“Oscar, I will never forget that slap from you. I won’t hold you fully responsible for Cassie’s suicide, but it is still a fact that Cassie tried to kill herself over you. You better pray that she pulls through this, or I won’t let you off. Nobody bullies my daughter!”
Nonetheless, Oscar remained sullen throughout.
Elizabeth distanced herself further from Charlie as she looked silently in the direction of the operating room.
Because of Cassie, the relationship between her and her husband had become even more strained. Gone were the days when they still loved and supported each other.
The three of them paced outside for almost three hours before the light above the operating room door finally flickered off. A team of doctors made their way out, all of them exhausted after such a long procedure.
Elizabeth couldn’t hide her anxiety as she rushed up to them. “Dr. Kane, how is my daughter?”
Dr. Kane’s face took on a ghastly expression. On top of work fatigue, he was also exasperated at Cassie. It hadn’t even been ten days since she got hospitalized, yet she had already caused so much trouble for the staff. More importantly, he was upset at the lack of care she had for herself.
“Mrs. Yard, your daughter is out of danger. But if she continues to have so little regard for her own life, I’m afraid there’s nothing much we can do for her.”
Elizabeth’s face fell.
