Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 796

Noah got out of the car and walked into the living room. Frowning, Olivia glanced at him. "Noah, are you going to

divorce Stephanie? She's pregnant with your child now. Do you really want to abandon them?"

Noah walked over helplessly. "Mom, I really love Stephanie. In the car just now, I was just telling her to trust me and

stop bringing up my ex-girlfriend.

Otherwise, my love for her will wear out no matter how deep it is. After hearing that, she misunderstood me and

thought I wanted to divorce her. I don't know what to do either."

Olivia shot Stephanie a glance. "Steph, is that true?"

"Mom, he has always wanted to divorce me. He's been together with that woman for almost ten years now,"

Stephanie scoffed and said petulantly.

Olivia knitted her brows, looking dissatisfied. "Steph, stop messing around. I won't stop you if you want to divorce

Noah, but if you don't want to do that, just continue living your life peacefully with him."

Stephanie sat on the couch in frustration.

Just then, Oscar, who was carrying Tony in his arms, walked down the stairs with Amelia. As soon as Noah saw

Oscar, his eyes flickered.

Stephanie walked over with an ingratiating smile. "Oscar."

Oscar only nodded at her placidly.

Since they were now downstairs, Tony broke free of Oscar's embrace and jumped to the ground. Then, he ran over

and threw himself into Olivia's arms.

Holding Tony in her arms, Olivia cooed at him lovingly. After the two hugged each other for a while, Olivia said,

"Tony, you haven't greeted your Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Noah yet."

Upon hearing that, Tony pulled away from her and greeted Stephanie and Noah obediently.

A tinge of annoyance flashed across Stephanie's eyes, but a gentle smile crept on her face in the next second.

She took out a gift she had prepared from her handbag. It was a shiny, beautiful jade pendant with clear textures.

With a soft voice, Stephanie said, "Come here, Tony. I happened to see this jade pendant in an antique store. The

store owner told me that this is a powerful pendant that can protect the one who wears it, so I spent a lucrative

sum and bought it for you. Do you like it?"

Tony glanced at Amelia cautiously, and Amelia nodded slightly in response. However, she didn't look excited or

happy.

With that, Tony walked over to Stephanie. Immediately, Stephanie put the jade pendant on him. "It's so beautiful,"

she said with a chuckle.

Olivia gazed at the pendant. "It's indeed beautiful, but boys shouldn't wear pendants like that. It looks a little girlish."

Stephanie nodded. "Mom, I just felt that this pendant will look good on Tony. That's why I bought it for him. I'll buy

him something else when he's a little older," she added.

Olivia waved her hand at Tony. "Shouldn't you thank Aunt Stephanie for the gift?"

Without hesitation, Tony said, "Thank you, Aunt Stephanie."

The few continued chatting for a little in the living room. Not long after, Olivia ordered the housekeepers to serve

the food. Following that, everyone sat around the dining table and started eating. Olivia piled some food on Tony's

plate. "Tony, eat more. I asked the chef to prepare all of these for you," she said, concern evident in her voice.

"Thank you, Grandma!" Tony said with a sweet voice.

As Stephanie watched how close Olivia and Tony were, a tinge of dissatisfaction glinted across her eyes.

"Mom, Tony is over three years old now. He's no longer a baby. Other kids are already in kindergarten at this age,

yet you're still treating him like a baby. Aren't you afraid that you'll spoil him?" she asked casually while eating her

food.

Olivia's expression darkened. "Steph, what do you mean by that? He's your nephew, and you're his aunt. Instead of

treating him well, you even blame me for doting on him. I remember I also doted on you like this when you were

young."

Flashing an apologetic smile, Stephanie replied, "Don't be angry, Mom. That's not what I meant. I'm just afraid that

he'll become too willful in the future. After all, we shouldn't spoil a young boy like this."

Olivia's expression turned grimmer.

Nevertheless, Stephanie continued saying, "Mom, I'm giving birth to my baby in a few months. You'll soon have a

grandchild who can take care of you."

Olivia continued filling up Tony's plate without saying anything.

Stephanie felt that she had made a fool of herself. In dissatisfaction, she pursed her lips and ate her food silently.

The family finished their meal in a strange atmosphere. Suddenly, Olivia suggested, "Oscar, Amelia, it's the

weekend tomorrow. Why don't you guys stay here tonight? I feel like sleeping with Tony."

Oscar and Amelia agreed immediately.

Soon after, Olivia carried Tony in her arms and returned to her room with Owen. Meanwhile, Oscar headed back to

his room with Amelia in his embrace. Unexpectedly, Noah mustered up his courage and approached Oscar. "Oscar,

I have some questions about work. Can you spare thirty minutes for me?"

Amelia shot Oscar a glance as she said, "Oscar, I'll go inside first. You can come in after you're done."

After she entered the bedroom, Oscar put on a stern expression. "What do you need?"

Noah humbled himself before Oscar. "Oscar, how about we go to the rooftop and have a talk?"

With that, Oscar followed him to the rooftop.

"Oscar, did you meet Emma?" Noah went straight to the point.

Oscar lifted his brow. "Yes. I went to see her and talked with her briefly when I found out that you cheated on Steph.

What's the matter? Are you here to interrogate me?"

Noah forced a smile. "Oscar, that's not what I meant. I just want to know why you would help her leave the

country."

"There's no reason. My sister's pregnant now, so I don't want that ignorant woman to make her life difficult." Oscar

added casually, "I'm angry at Steph because she's immature, but she's my sister, after all. I'm a protective man, so

I don't want her to feel aggrieved."

Noah knew that Oscar was giving him a warning now. However, he didn't know whether Oscar was telling the truth.

"Oscar, you love joking, don't you? My love for Stephanie is sincere, and I'm sure that I can stand anyone's test. Can

you send me Emma's address in Anglandur, though?" Noah asked carefully.

An indiscernible smile appeared on Oscar's face. He shot Noah a glance and remarked, "You've been following

me?"

Noah was stunned. Instantly, his heart skipped a beat. "What are you talking about? I would never have the

audacity to do that. It's just that Emma went missing all of a sudden. I'm worried about her, so I sent my people to

investigate. Unexpectedly, they found out that you've sent her to Anglandur. That's why I'm here, shamelessly

asking you to give me her address. Can you tell me?"

With his hands behind his back, Oscar said, "I don't mind telling you." Just as Noah's eyes lit up in excitement, he

added, "But not now."

Noah's expression changed drastically.

Despite seeing that, Oscar remained unbothered. He said coldly, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back down first. By

the way, my sister is pregnant now, so stop thinking of other women. I believe that with the power of your family,

it'll be hard for you to stop the Clinton family's revenge. Am I right?" Having said that, he headed downstairs

straight away.

Noah, who remained rooted to the spot, was stunned for a moment. His expression shifted a few times as he

clenched his fists hard.

"Why are you standing here alone? It's getting late. Thinking about that vixen?” Suddenly, Stephanie's impatient

voice sounded.

Noah came back to his senses. He hurriedly hid the fuming anger in his eyes and walked over to her. "Steph, why

are you here?"

"I was waiting for you in the room, but you didn't come back even after so long. So, I decided to come and find

you," Stephanie complained, looking a little angry. "Why are you standing here like an idiot? Did Oscar bully you?"

Noah shook his head in response. "No. It's just that I couldn't figure some things out, so I stayed here to think. I'm

sorry. Let's go to sleep now."

"Really?" It was evident that Stephanie was doubtful.

"Of course. Hurry, let's go to bed now. I want to talk to our son."

Since Noah's attitude was nice, Stephanie decided to stop scolding him. She then followed him back to their room

obediently.
