Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 510 Please Do Not Sue Her

Upon receiving the news about Amelia Winters’ injury, Eleanor almost collapsed and hastened to hail a taxi to the couple’s place. Her hands were trembling all the way. The moment she saw the wound on her daughter’s forehead, disbelief was written all over her face.

“Lia, h-how did you get yourself hurt to this state? Weren’t you doing fine yesterday?” Eleanor asked, her eyes reddening. She was genuinely distressed.

It took me so much effort to meet my daughter, and all I want is to shower her with love and affection. Who could be so cruel as to injure her?

Nonplussed, Amelia Winters comforted, “Mrs. Hutton, my injury may look serious with the bandage around my forehead, but it’s not. It only hurt the moment I was struck. Other than that, I feel pretty all right. I’m telling the truth. Please don’t worry about me, or I’ll feel guilty.”

Eleanor remained unconvinced. Her own forehead was throbbing even just by looking at the wound. In her opinion, there was no way that Amelia Winters was all right as she had claimed.

“How could you say you are not in pain with that wound? Don’t you know how distressed I am?” Eleanor said, feeling anxious and angry at the same time.

Amelia Winters forced a smile on her face.

In truth, she was not used to an elder making a fuss over her.

Carrying a plate of fruits from the kitchen, Kurt shot her a glance before walking briskly to put it on the coffee table. In a monotonous tone, he said, “Mrs. Hutton, please take a seat first. Amelia has to exert herself to explain to you if you remain standing. The doctor said she hurt her head, so she can’t stand for too long.”

That jolted Eleanor out of her worry, and she quickly held her daughter’s arm to lead her to take a seat. “Lia, I am just worried about you. Please don’t take it to heart. Come and have a seat. You’re a patient now, so you can’t be exhausted,” she said apologetically.

In a resigned manner, Amelia Winters sat down. She only sustained a minor injury on her forehead, yet everyone else was treating her as though she had got a terminal illness.

“Lia, how do you feel now? Do you feel any dizziness or nausea?” Eleanor asked concernedly.

Amelia Winters smiled as she replied, “Mrs. Hutton, don’t worry. I’m really fine. The doctor bandaged my forehead because Oscar was too worried that he requested him to do so. I’m actually fine.”

Eleanor nodded approvingly as though she agreed with Oscar’s decision. “Oscar made the right call. It may seem like a minor injury to you, but it can get severe. It’s not a joking matter if you get tetanus. So, it’s better to take it seriously.”

Having heard that, Amelia Winters had no choice but to oblige.

“Oh right! Where’s Oscar? I haven’t seen him ever since I arrived. You’re badly injured now. What is he doing instead of accompanying you?” Eleanor asked in a displeased tone.
