Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 262

Chapter 262 A Futile Crush

The first thing Oscar saw upon opening the door was Amelia and Kurt with their heads nearly touching each other. Given the fact that they were in the same room so late at night, it was only natural for any guy to get the wrong idea.

Oscar’s expression looked as if he was about to kill someone, but he was quick to hide it and called out to her, “Amelia.”

Amelia accidentally tugged hard on the bandages from the shock, causing Kurt to groan in pain.

Having been snapped out of her state of shock, Amelia quickly apologized, “Sorry! I’m sorry!” She then hurried to her feet, but her legs were numb from kneeling for too long. Fortunately, Oscar quickly reached out to hold her steady when she lost her balance and fell forward. The next thing she knew, she had fallen face-first into his broad chest.

“Be careful not to fall,” Oscar said gently while holding her in his embrace.

Amelia instinctively grabbed on to his arm and tried to explain, “Listen to me, Oscar. This isn’t what it looks like.”

Oscar cut her off by holding a finger to her lips as he said, “Hush! I know. It’s late, so you should head back and get some sleep. We’ll talk in the morning.”

Amelia shot Kurt a glance before nodding in response.

Oscar then wrapped an arm around her waist and brought her back to the bedroom.

Noticing that Amelia had been cautiously staring at his face the whole time, Oscar asked with a chuckle, “What? Did I get something on my face?”

Amelia shook her head. “Aren’t you mad about me being in the nursery late at night?”

“Do you want me to be?”

Amelia shook her head again. “Oscar, I was there because—”

“I know you were there to see Tony. I trust you, Amelia. I know you’re not the type who would flirt with other men when you’ve got a husband and child,” Oscar said confidently.

Amelia’s heart raced when she heard that.
