Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 245

Chapter 245 Lesson Learnt

Mrs. Clinton was still obviously skeptical and furious, so Amelia tried to calm her mother down. “Mom, I don’t think Oscar’s the one who hurt Tiff. He’s always been a fair guy, and Tiff’s his sister. Even if he’s angry about her actions, I don’t think he would stab her in the back. If he really wanted to teach her a lesson, he would have done so a long time ago.”

Mrs. Clinton took a deep breath and shot Amelia a complex look, though she knew she was indeed getting a bit too agitated. “Don’t take this the wrong way, Amelia. I’m not blaming Oscar, but I’m worried about Tiff. I was just trying to vent my anger on someone,” the woman said softly.

Amelia went silent. She was slightly offended by Mrs. Clinton’s uncorroborated accusation, not to mention how the woman was taking Stephanie’s side without bothering to look into the truth. Anyone would be offended by that.

Olivia seemed like she cared about Oscar and Amelia, but that was only because Stephanie wasn’t in the picture. Olivia would scold Stephanie whenever she tried to pull a prank, but she’d take her side when it came to the important things; she obviously loved Stephanie more.

Amelia still respected Olivia after the Stephanie incident, but not as much as she used to. Ever since that incident, a wedge had been lodged between them, and it was one that was hard to get rid of.

Olivia didn’t know what to say either, so the conversation came to an abrupt halt. She took a look at Stephanie and soon realized that she must have hurt her son deeply. However, even with that in mind, she couldn’t bring herself to apologize. No mother would apologize to her children.

In the end, she kept her silence and allowed the atmosphere to grow more and more awkward. Luckily, Stephanie regained consciousness half an hour later, breaking the ice. However, she was confused to see herself in the hospital.

Olivia darted toward her darling and asked, “Are you feeling better, Tiff? Does it still hurt?”

Stephanie blinked in confusion. “What happened, mom? Why am I in a hospital?”
