Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 516 Love Troubles

Tiffany threw the fork in her hand angrily inside a retro feeling restaurant. She raged, “What did you say? You are telling me that Jennifer’s mom inflicted these wounds on you? Is she crazy? Her daughter is the person that had no means of attracting the man she wanted! Why did she blame you?”

“Don’t be mad at her, Tiff. It’s not worth it to be frustrated over an insane woman like her,” Amelia advised, “Oscar had already contacted a lawyer. We are suing her for this. She has to face the consequences no matter what the judge makes of this. You don’t have to worry about me. I’m no saint. I won’t just let her off the hook easily without taking action.”

Tiffany cooled down upon hearing Amelia’s explanation.

She gave the latter a thumbs up. “Good! Babe, you did well this time around. It doesn’t matter if the punishment is stern enough or not. She didn’t even bother to think it through before hurting you. We need to teach her a lesson. I think she will try to avoid you by the time she comes out of jail!”

Amelia took a bite of her food before saying, “That’s not my original intention. There’s no need for her to be scared of me. What I don’t understand, though, is why every single of them blamed me when something in their relationship went wrong? I’ve never done anything bad in my life. You can even say I’m better than them in that sense. After all, I can shout and declare to everyone I’ve never done anything that I’ve regretted.”

Tiffany gave her another thumbs up and smiled. “Babe, I admire you. That’s the right attitude when facing these women with ulterior motives. A friendly reminder? You can’t be soft-hearted, no matter who begs or pleads for mercy, okay? If not, these people will think you are a softie at heart! Also, why are you soaked in water? What happened to you? Don’t you dare hide the truth from me!”

Amelia didn’t plan to. She briefly recounted the incident with Faye.

“What an old hag!” Tiffany threw her fork on the table again. She gritted her teeth and said, “Why didn’t you slap her? You were there for Carter when he was admitted into the hospital for gastric perforation 2 years ago. How dare she treats you nicely when she needs your help and mistreats you when she no longer needs you? What right does she have to scold you? It’s her son’s fault for clinging to you! Why can’t she control her son’s actions?”

She became angrier as she spoke.

“All right. All right. Tiffany, relax!” Amelia changed the topic. “Did you buy a new car?”

Tiffany looked like all energy had been drained from her body upon hearing Amelia’s question.

“Urgh. I’m going crazy because of Derrick’s mom and Crystal. That woman couldn’t stop pestering Derrick at his company. Now instead of me, everyone thinks she’s Derrick’s fiancée. What’s worse? I can’t just run to his company and tell everyone I’m the real fiancée because people will think I’m crazy! To them, Derrick comes from a rich family. Why would he get together with a woman like me?” Tiffany continued, “Babe, you had no idea what happened yesterday. I purposely brought a manuscript to the editor so that I could eat together with Derrick. Little did I know, his mom and Crystal were there too. His mom told everyone to take good care of Crystal because she is Derrick’s fiancée. What did Derrick do? He kept a straight face. He didn’t even bother to argue with her. Do you know how disappointed I felt at that moment? I thought he was different. Yet, he acted that way. Tell me. What do you think he is trying to do? Anyway, back to the story. I was so distraught I turned and left.”

Amelia frowned. “Maybe there’s a misunderstanding?”

“I thought so too. I tried to call him, but his line was busy, so I didn’t bother to try again. Until now, Derrick has yet to call me back. Not even a single call from him. Babe, what do you think? Does he want to break up with me?” Tiffany stuffed a mouthful of meat into her mouth dejectedly.

Amelia pondered before replying, “Why don’t we head to his place later? If there’s a misunderstanding, you can talk things through with him. If he wants to break up, he must do it face-to-face. Then, you can let go of this relationship, right?”
