Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 279

Chapter 279 Strained Relationship

Despite that, Amelia still refused to accept anything. “Oscar, I can’t accept this. It’s as I said earlier, I won’t take a single dollar from the Clintons. All I want is Tony. As for the money in my bank account… Well, that’s what you gave me over the years, and if you want it back, you can go ahead and freeze the account. I won’t blame you for it.”

Oscar’s expression instantly turned grim.

“Amelia, we might be getting a divorce, but must you cut things off so cleanly? We’ve been together for five years. Can you really move on just like that after signing a piece of paper?”

Amelia was stuck.

How was it even possible for her to move on? She had endured a lot of loneliness and neglect over the past five years, but every memory she made with Oscar was carved into her very being. It was likely she would never love someone else as much as she loved him.

In their five years of marriage, she had learned how to love a man and be selfless. She knew that she wouldn’t be able to love anyone else even after she got the divorce.

Amelia had already decided that she would treasure her memories with Oscar and live the rest of her life alone. She was convinced that she wouldn’t be lonely as long as she had those memories with her.

Oscar reached out and dragged her into his arms. In a deep voice, he practically begged, “Please don’t reject this offer. My heart will break if you cut things off so cleanly.”

If that’s true, why are you so eager to get a divorce?

Amelia wanted to ask that question aloud, but she then realized how they were about to get a divorce already and decided that there was no point in asking.

“Let me go, Oscar. We’re getting a divorce, and it’s not right to hug like this,” said Amelia as she feigned calm.

“You’re my wife so long as those papers aren’t signed, and it’s only normal for a husband to hold his wife. Or… are you repulsed by my touch because I slept with Cassie?” asked Oscar directly. At first, he didn’t want to talk about Cassie, but that woman was a thorn in both his and his wife’s sides. Oscar was convinced that he needed to talk about the matter, or it would just make things worse. It’s like a cut. If we don’t treat it, it’ll get infected and spread, so we might as well just bite the bullet. If we talk it out, the wall between Amelia and me will slowly crumble.

Amelia’s entire body stiffened. She tried to struggle, but that only served to make Oscar hold her even tighter.

Conflicting emotions filled Amelia’s heart. Still buried in his arms, she said, “Oscar, what’s the point of saying all this now? I know that Ms. Yard is the only one for you, and I know that it doesn’t matter how many years I’ve spent with you because I will always be her replacement. I can’t deny that we look rather similar, either. Despite that, I’d like to ask that you see me as I am instead of someone else’s replacement. Will you do that?”

Oscar’s expression turned even darker after hearing all that.
