Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 452 Apology

Amelia, who was busy dealing with her blueprint design in the company, rushed to the washroom when she received Tiffany’s message.

When she called Tiffany, the latter sounded as though she was about to cry. “I didn’t heed your advice at all, Babe. I had another argument with Mrs. Hisson. It’s all because I’m an impulsive and impatient woman. I really tried my best not to get angry, but looks like it was a pointless endeavor in the end.”

“Calm down and tell me what happened.”

Tiffany briefly explained the incident that had taken place.

Amelia wasn’t sure what to say, but she still asked, “If you’ve endured it for hours, why didn’t you hold back for a little longer, Tiffany?”

There was silence on the other end for a dozen seconds before Tiffany spoke up again. “I wanted to. It’s just that… I couldn’t stand her bullying after hours of following her around like her maid.”

“I don’t think we can talk properly on the phone. How about you come to my company half an hour later? We’ll have lunch together and we can discuss your next move,” Amelia suggested.

“Sure.”

After hanging up the phone, Amelia couldn’t help but furrow her eyebrows. Mrs. Hisson is harder to deal with than I thought. Ever since Tiffany became a freelance author and was no longer restricted by a workplace, she became used to doing things her way. Her impatient personality certainly isn’t a helpful trait against someone like Mrs. Hisson. I wonder, is Derrick really going to be the right man for her? If she marries into the Hisson family, can she really handle the social interactions she’ll have to partake in upper-class gatherings? Will she even like it?

Amelia was getting unsure of what she should do because she knew firsthand how terrible it felt to take part in the upper-class society without being used to them. Maybe it’ll be better if Tiffany finds another man. Not having a similar social status isn’t something that she can easily ignore as time goes on. I suppose we’ll just have to see how it goes. It’s her decision to stay with Derrick, after all, and so this is a journey she must go through. As much as I wish to interfere, all I can do is give her advice.

Amelia met up with Tiffany at a restaurant close to her company. Both of them sat by the window and ordered a couple of dishes that they liked before handing the menu back to the server.

Seeing that Tiffany was still looking upset, Amelia asked, “Are you all right?”

Tiffany shook her head. “No. Not at all.”
