Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 285 You Bet That He Loves You

Olivia said, “Amelia, even if you and Oscar plan to divorce, I don’t blame you. However, you shouldn’t take advantage of Oscar’s love and make him give you Tony’s custody. I don’t know why you’re insistent on the divorce, but I’m certain that he didn’t ask for this. Everyone knows how much he loves you, but you’re treating everyone else like they’re fools.”

Amelia leaned back in her seat, looking grim.

“Amelia, I know you’re an intelligent woman. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have waited five years before you were certain about Oscar’s feelings for you. You then wanted to use Tony as a bargaining chip to go against our family. I think this is a wrong move on your part. You should just take the money and leave. This way, at least we can retain our relationship after this,” Olivia said.

Amelia lifted her head to forcefully suppress her tears.

Focusing her attention on Olivia, she smirked. “Mom, I’ve never wanted to take advantage of anyone. I’ve always been sincere in treating you as an elder too. We’ve been getting along well these past few years, so I don’t want to go against you. It makes me upset that you’re not feeling well. You can think of me as an ungrateful person, and I can give up everything after the divorce. However, there’s no way I’m giving up Tony.”

Olivia lifted her hand to fix her hair, appearing to be calm. The elegant aura she exuded made her feel very intimidating.

“Amelia, I’ve treated you so well, but are you really going to go against me and hurt me?”

Amelia shook her head.

She never thought that she would one day be on such hostile ground with Olivia. Knowing that she would be blind soon and that she would lose everything once she left the Clintons, she did not want to lose Tony too.

Even without Tony, the Clintons would have other grandchildren in the future, but she only had Tony.

Olivia stood up and said sternly, “Amelia, you have two choices. One, don’t divorce Oscar and you can stay in the family as our daughter-in-law. Two, get a divorce and obtain a large sum of money. You’ll be able to live a prosperous life even if you don’t have a job. Either way, you can’t take Tony with you.”

Amelia kept her head low, not saying a word. She was in deep thought.

Once again, Olivia spoke up. “Amelia, I like you a lot. Just be obedient and stay with us. I promise that even if Oscar has a lover out there and the woman has his baby, we will never accept the child. Only Tony can inherit our family’s wealth. What do you think?”

Amelia lifted her head and looked at Olivia with mixed feelings.

“Amelia, don’t blame me for being so straightforward, but our family is a prominent family. Men will always play around out there. You’ve always dealt with it so well before, so why can’t you continue enduring it now? You have to tolerate it if you want to enjoy all the wealth and glory of this family. Otherwise, how could you become the lady of the house of such a rich family?”

Amelia smiled, but the smile was mixed with exasperation and bitterness.
