Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 309

Chapter 309 Guilt

After a tensed silence, Oscar looked at Olivia and spoke sincerely. “Mom, it was my fault that Amelia left, but I won’t give up on her.”

Olivia scoffed. “Look at you. You’re indeed your father’s son, for you are both stubborn. The woman treated you badly, but you insist on siding with her! Will you stop only when I suffer from a heart attack?”

Sighing, Oscar answered, “Mom, Amelia isn’t like that. You used to adore her, right? Why are you being so harsh on her?”

His answer only serve to aggrieve Olivia further.

“I was blind to treat her well! If we weren’t on good terms, I wouldn’t feel this bad right now. I made sure she ate well, sleep well, and lived well. I also never cut off her allowance or limited her freedom. It was also her who caused Stephanie and me to argue back then. As her mother-in-law, I did my best. How did she repay me? By taking Tony away from me! I didn’t even expect that. How could she? That ungrateful woman doesn’t deserve my kindness!” she declared angrily.

Oscar pursed his lips silently.

“You got no retort for that, huh? Oscar, I’ll be blunt with you. Even after you find where Amelia is, I won’t allow her to marry you. I don’t want a hypocritical daughter-in-law. You have to pick between me or her,” Olivia stated firmly, and there was a finality to her tone that warned him to make the correct decision.

Oscar frowned as annoyance rose in his heart.

“Mom, you weren’t like this previously. Why are you acting this way?”

 

“That was in the past. You know me well, don’t you? If I like someone, I’ll treat her well. But once I grow to hate someone, she’ll never enter my good books, ever. Cassie is one, and Amelia has achieved that, too. You can say I’m inflexible, but I’ll never accept someone I dislike,” she declared.

Silence ensued.

Olivia stood up from Owen’s arms. She parted her lips to say something, but a grating pain gripped her heart, and she passed out without warning.

“Olivia? Olivia!” Owen held her before she fell to the floor and yelled, “Oscar, get the car!”

Oscar ran out and drove the car to the entrance of the Clinton residence in a swift manner. Owen immediately brought Olivia to the car.

Flooring the accelerator, Oscar arrived at Principal General Hospital in the shortest time possible. Robert, who had been informed of the news, was already waiting at the entrance with his team of medical staff. Once the car rolled to a stop, they hoisted Olivia up to the stretcher and pushed her to the operating room.

Outside the operating room, both Oscar and Owen stared at the red light anxiously. An awkward silence ensued.

Some time later, Oscar broke the silence. With his head hung low, he said guiltily, “Dad, I’m sorry.”
