Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 802

In frustration, Eva walked back and forth while ruffling her hair. Although she wanted to explain, she was unsure

how. In the end, she ran out in a fit of anger.

Amelia was upset as she watched Eva run away. Her eyes became red with rage.

Oscar was obviously displeased, so he wanted to call Hugo to bring Eva back.

However, Amelia placed her hand on his hand that was holding the phone and shook her head. "No need. Just take

it as I was being nosy."

Furrowing his brows, Oscar piped up with displeasure, "You're unhappy."

Amelia chuckled lightly and uttered, "There's nothing to be unhappy about. I finally understood that even though I

thought I was caring for others, I was really just being nosy."

Lifting his hand, Oscar caressed her cheek and said, "Don't dwell on it too much. You aren't being nosy."

Amelia stood on tiptoe and bit his chin. With a smile, she stated, "Don't be angry because of this. I've done my best

for Eva. There's nothing I can do if she doesn't appreciate it. We just recently met, as she mentioned, so we aren't

particularly close just yet."

Oscar embraced her and gave her comfort. At the same time, a tempest was raging in the depths of his eyes.

After finding an excuse to leave the house in the afternoon, he drove straight to a park.

Moments later, he parked the car and walked toward Eva, who was sitting on a rock with a dejected expression.

Eva gave him a quick glance, not surprised by his sudden appearance.

As he got closer, he suddenly started attacking her. However, she managed to steer clear of his assault out of

occupational instinct.

Yet, Oscar moved surprisingly quickly. In the blink of an eye, he grabbed Eva's hand and threw her over his

shoulder.

As Eva collapsed to the ground, she groaned and felt a sharp pain in her back.

Looking at her condescendingly, Oscar ordered coldly, "Get up."

Eva quickly got up from the ground, and Oscar attacked her once again. Perhaps because she had her guard up

this time, she managed to block his attacks five times before being thrown over his shoulder again.

The same thing happened over and over again. Eva felt as if all of her bones were scattered. She almost could not

get up from the ground in the end.

When she eventually stood up, she coughed violently and asked weakly, "Oscar, are you satisfied now?"

In response, Oscar glared at her gloomily. "You made Amelia angry. I would have made your life worse than death if

you weren't a relative of hers."

Eva believed that. With Oscar's power, it was a piece of cake for him to make her life miserable. Moreover, she was

the one who disregarded Amelia's good intentions first. It was reasonable for Oscar to be angry.

"Oscar, please apologize to Amelia on my behalf. My mind has been a complete mess earlier, so I didn't give much

thought to what I said. I didn't really mean what I said. I just don't want to give up on James." Eva coughed again

and tried her best to explain herself.

Scrutinizing her, Oscar hit the nail on the head by saying, "With that appearance and occupation of yours, what

makes you think you're worthy of James, aside from the fact that you're Amelia's cousin?"

Eva was bereft of speech.

Oscar's words struck her in the heart.

She straightened her back and retorted stubbornly, "In terms of appearance and family background, Amelia isn't

worthy of you either. You two must have overcome many obstacles to be together. Shouldn't you have a better

understanding of my feelings given what you've already been through?"

The edges of Oscar's mouth curled into a sneer.

"In my opinion, a woman is only devaluing herself by pursuing a man. If a man really loves you, he'll never let you

pursue him," commented Oscar viciously. "It's your choice if you want to act shamelessly, but don't involve Amelia

in it. I dislike seeing her worry about anyone. She's mine."

Eva turned around in silence and walked away.

Oscar did not chase after her. After beating her up, his rage had significantly subsided.

He did not like beating women unless they crossed his bottom line, and Eva had obviously crossed that boundary.

Soon, Oscar left the park. When his subordinate called to report that Eva spat out a mouthful of blood as soon as

she left the park, he was not surprised and instructed indifferently, "You don't have to follow her anymore. Whether

she lives or dies is none of the Clinton family's business."

"Yes, Mr. Clinton."

Shortly afterward, Oscar returned home as if nothing had happened. He had dinner with Tony and Amelia, gave

Tony a bath, and then read him a bedtime story before returning to his room.

"Oscar, you seem to be in a good mood today," Amelia muttered as she gave him a hug from behind.

Oscar placed his hand on hers and replied with a smile, "I taught a disobedient person a lesson in the company

today and couldn't help but feel better."

Smiling faintly, Amelia asked tentatively, "You didn't make things difficult for Eva, did you?"

Oscar rolled over with the woman in his arms, allowing her to lie on top of him. Subsequently, he pressed the tip of

his nose against hers and beamed. "Why do you ask? Am I such an obnoxious man in your eyes?

"No. You're an outstanding man. Under normal circumstances, you don't bother to deal with women, but that's only

under normal circumstances. I'm afraid you saw how unhappy I was and purposefully caused her trouble. She's a

young woman who has recently started working. Her way of thinking remains innocent and naïve. She only talked

back to me because she was infuriated. I didn't take it to heart, so please don't intentionally make things difficult for

her."

Oscar's eyes flickered as he responded with a smile, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Grinning, Amelia suggested, "You should go take a shower. It's almost time for bed."

"Come with me." While carrying her in his arms, Oscar walked toward the bathroom and turned on the shower.

Both of them were drenched by the water that was pouring down.

He pushed her up against the wall, lowered his head, and kissed her lips. Their kiss became more passionate as

water streamed down their bodies.

When everything was over, Oscar scooped Amelia up and carefully placed her on the bed. After covering her with

the blanket, he gave her a peck on the forehead tenderly.

The night passed peacefully.

The following day, Amelia went to the company but was stopped by James at the entrance. "Amelia, could you

spare me five minutes?"

Amelia answered in a polite but distant manner, "James,

I'm not free right now. You should resolve the issues between Eva and you on your own. I'm not going to meddle in

your personal matters anymore."

Moving his lips, James swallowed his unspoken words and stated, "Then I shall go back first." Amelia only nodded in

response.

Just as she arrived at the design department and sat down in her seat, she received several photos from James.

The moment she clicked on one of the photos to enlarge it, she saw a woman's back covered in bruises. The final

photo was a side profile shot of Eva, who was only dressed in undergarments.

In an instant, Amelia's expression darkened, and she immediately called James.

"James, what have you done to Eva? What a piece of trash you are. If you dare to hurt her, I'll never let you off the

hook," Amelia questioned as soon as the other party picked up the phone.

"Amelia, come over to Eva's house. She's resting at home," James responded after a brief silence. Amelia put all of

her work on hold and hurried over to

Eva's house with Jolin. She frantically knocked on the door, but no one answered. In the end, Jolin had to pick the

lock before they could go in.

However, after searching the entire apartment, they found no trace of Eva.

Anxious and furious, Amelia called James again. "James, where's Eva?"

"Isn't she at home? I treated her bruises before leaving."

"She isn't here. What have you done to her? Where did you bring her?"

"That's impossible. She clearly-"

"James, I don't care how much you hate her. I advise you to bring her back. Otherwise, I'll never let you go. I'll

definitely keep my word."

After a long silence, James piped up, "Amelia, please stay where you are. I'll go over now."

As soon as James arrived, Amelia lifted her hand and gave him a slap before he could say anything. "James, I

shouldn't have trusted you. I didn't expect you to be such a jerk. You don't deserve Eva," Amelia enunciated calmly

and walked away. Stunned, James remained motionless after being slapped. A while later, he ruffled his hair in

frustration, still having no idea what had happened.
