Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 276

Chapter 276 Electrocuted

With a plan worked out, Oscar started working on how he’d court Amelia and get her back after they divorced. He wanted the two of them to get back together as soon as possible, so he even put aside his pride and consulted his men. That caused most of his subordinates to stare strangely at him, as if they had just seen a ghost.

Oscar tapped the desk with his pen and demanded, “I asked you boys what you do when you court women. Is that question really that difficult to answer?”

The men came around immediately after.

They interrupted each other as they answered the question, but in general, it was the same few pieces of advice.

Firstly, a guy had to buy breakfast and personally deliver it to the girl’s place every morning. He was to have breakfast with her, then accompany her to her workplace.

Secondly, the guy had to show up in front of the girl every single day and be adaptable to the situation. For example, if someone were to bully the girl, the guy must exact revenge on the girl’s behalf.

Thirdly, the guy had to be prepared and okay with being the girl’s fallback guy.

Fourthly, the guy had to treat the girl well. It was imperative to do so much for her that she became used to it and became unreasonably spoilt. Every other guy wouldn’t be able to handle that temper, and she’d naturally turn to the guy who spoiled her in the first place.

Fifthly, the guy had to love everything the girl loved. He also had to be kind to her family and friends.

Sixthly, it was vital the guy remember every occasion. Valentine’s Day, dating anniversaries, the day they first kissed, wedding anniversaries… Any occasion involving any gesture of love must be celebrated.

As Oscar listened, he noted everything down on a piece of paper as though he were a student preparing for an exam.

His subordinates’ eyes bulged in astonishment as they watched him write away. They then turned to one another and saw the same curiosity reflected in each other’s eyes.

Daniel had been working as Oscar’s assistant for quite some time by then. He rubbed his hands together before asking, “Uh, Mr. Clinton? Why are you asking this question?”

“To court and get my wife back. Do you guys think this will work?” asked Oscar grimly. He had a straight face on, but everyone else took his words as a joke.

Daniel grinned and replied, “Oh, that’s so funny, Mr. Clinton! You and your wife are on such good terms, and the two of you have a son together. There’s no need for you to court her.”

“What makes you think that we’re on good terms?” asked Oscar as he rested both his hands on his desk. There was an unreadable expression on his face.

Daniel swallowed hard and examined Oscar’s expression before chuckling a little. The former then said, “Mr. Clinton, you truly are hilarious. If you and your wife aren’t on good terms, how could the two of you stay married for five years? You’re handsome and rich, so you can have any woman you want. Staying with your wife for so long shows that you truly love her. Now that the two of you have a son, your family of three will surely be happy and blissful.”

Oscar was the kind of man who would lose all rationale when he fell for someone. Others might regard his behavior as being mentally disturbed, but Daniel had spent the last five years observing Oscar. Hence, Daniel knew that Oscar was simply an idiot when it came to matters of the heart.

“Mr. Clinton, are you okay?” asked Daniel nervously. Crap, I didn’t say anything wrong, did I? Please don’t fire me from this high-paying job with great benefits!
