Too Much to Bear, My Love Chapter 208

Carter shook his head. “Amelia, you know I’m not a petty person. Tiffany has said worse before.”

Amelia nodded. “Carter, come sit.”

Carter sat on the sofa.

Oscar came up to Amelia and gave her a peck on her lips. “How’re you feeling today?”

Amelia lightly pushed Oscar with her hands and chastised, “ Oscar, don’t be like this. Both Tiff and Carter

are here.”

Tiffany nonchalantly said, “Babe, just pretend we’re not here and do whatever you want. I’m used to it

anyway.”

Amelia’s cheeks blushed red. The blissfulness and happiness in her eyes were there for all to see.

Carter’s smile gradually turned awkward. A flash of pain flitted across his eyes. He felt a stabbing pain in

his heart.

It has only been a month but she has become more attractive. It’s not her appearance, but the glow from

her happiness.

I know I don’t stand a chance because there’s only one man in her eyes.

Carter felt conflicted with his emotions. He wished Amelia happiness, yet he hoped he was the one

giving it.

“Carter, are you feeling better?” Amelia’s voice pulled him back from his train of thoughts.

“I’m sorry, Amelia. What did you say?”

Tiffany glanced at Carter.

“I asked if you’re feeling better now?” Amelia repeated.

“Yes, I’m recovering well. My mom wanted me to stay for a couple more days,” Carter blurted out.

“Amelia, why didn’t you tell me you’ve gotten into an accident? Were you planning to hide it from me?”

Amelia chuckled, “Carter, that’s not it. I was unconscious and subjected to the emergency rescue for a

few days. The doctor even issued a medical crisis notice. Of course, these were all relayed to me by Tiff.

Anyway, I almost die. And when I woke up, Oscar and Tiff were there to take care of me. There’s no

need to trouble you.”

Bitterness spread through Carter’s heart.

So I’m merely an outsider in her eyes.

“As long as you’re fine,” Carter replied.

Amelia glanced at Oscar awkwardly.

Tiffany added, “Hey Jinx, why didn’t you bring a gift when you visited? Isn’t it rude to visit empty-

handed?”

Carter apologized.

Amelia cast Tiffany a reprimanding look. “Tiff, it’s rare for Carter to visit, so don’t you scare him away.”

Tiffany shrugged and laughed, “It’s just a joke. Jinx has always been understanding. So he wouldn’t

mind. Right, Jinx?”

Carter merely nodded.

Carter wanted to stay a bit longer but couldn’t bear the sight of Oscar fussing over Amelia another

second longer. “Amelia, I’m going to head back to my ward. My mom would be worried if I was gone for

too long. And I didn’t have my phone with me. I’ll drop by another day.”

Amelia wanted to get up from her bed, but Carter immediately stopped her. “It’s okay, Amelia. There’s no

need to get up. I can get back just fine. You lay down and rest.”

Amelia complied.

Tiffany said, “Babe, I’ll send him off on your behalf, then I’m going to get something to eat downstairs.

You need me to get anything for you both?”

Amelia shook her head.

“All right then. I’ll send Jinx off, so you and Mr. Clinton can be all lovey-dovey here.”

Amelia instinctively glanced at Carter and noticed the pain in his eyes despite his deadpan expression.

After Carter and Tiffany left Amelia’s ward, Carter was unusually silent.

Tiffany couldn’t stand to look at him being that way. She poked him with her elbow. “Hey, can’t bear to

look at Amelia and Oscar being happy together? The Jinx I know wouldn’t give up so easily. Or have you

realized the gap between you and Oscar and found out you came up short, so you wanted to give up?”

Carter shook his head.

Tiffany shrugged. “Nothing is uglier than a crestfallen man. Straighten your back if you’re a man.”

Carter cast her a glance and smiled.

“I was lamenting when I saw how happy and blissful Amelia is. It has only been a month since we last

met.”

Tiffany felt goosebumps rise all over her body and shivered.

“Stop! We’re not poets, so don’t make it seem so dramatic. I can feel goosebumps rising all over me,”

Tiffany urged.

Carter added, “You’re still straightforward as always. I’m curious which man could tame you.”

As he said that, a handsome face appeared in Tiffany’s mind.

Carter continued, “It would be hard to find a guy who could handle your sass.”

Tiffany rolled her eyes at him. “You just made me out to be a tigress.”

Carter retorted, “Aren’t you exactly that?”

Tiffany rolled her eyes at him again and waved her fist threateningly. “I would have punched you if you

weren’t feeling down.”

Carter laughed.

Tiffany let out a sigh and asked, “Happy now?”

Carter was baffled when he realized her intention.

“Thank you.”

Tiffany shrugged as she answered, “There’s no need for you to be thankful. I don’t want Amelia to feel

guilty. She had a hard time reaching where she is today. She, Oscar, and Tony are happy together.

Please give her your blessings if you love her. Maybe, you can consider Jennifer. If you don’t give her a

chance, how would you know whether she suits you?”

“Tony?” Carter asked.

Tiffany laughed, “He’s Amelia’s one-month-old son. He looks so much like her—fair and cute.”

Carter’s eyes glinted.

He sucked in a breath. “Can I see him?”

“Sure. Let me bring you there. Once you’ve seen Tony, you’ll want to hold him. He’s super cute and

smart. His huge, blinking eyes will melt your heart.”

The corners of Carter’s mouth curved into a faint smile.

“I can’t wait to see him.”

Carter and Tiffany arrived at the neonatal intensive care unit.

Tony was the only baby there. Carter cast Tiffany a puzzled glance when he noticed the three

bodyguards at the door.

Tiffany explained, “Tony is the Clintons’ eldest grandson, so everyone is worried about him. Oscar hired

those bodyguards to stand guard at the door. But Tony will be discharged this evening.”

Carter nodded.

Tiffany led Carter to the door. The three bodyguards greeted, “Hi, Ms. Winters.”

Tiffany patted their chest gently and smiled. “Thank you for your hard work. I’m here to see Tony.”

The bodyguards turned to scrutinize Carter instead. Tiffany said, “He is Amelia’s friend.”

Only then did the bodyguards allow them entry.

“Ms. Winters, please go on in.”

“Thank you.”

Carter followed Tiffany into the room.

Exactly as Tiffany mentioned, Carter felt the urge to hold Tony when he saw him. Tony was adorable.

Every expression Tony had when he was awake looked exactly like Amelia.

Carter’s heart melted at the sight.

“Isn’t he adorable? Everyone said he looked like Oscar. But in my opinion, he looked more similar to

Amelia. His eyes, brows, and nose are the same as Amelia’s. Especially when he smiles, his big eyes

are just like Amelia’s. Don’t you think so?”

Tiffany bent down to tease Tony. “Tony, I’m here to see you. Did you miss me today? I missed you so

much. I took it upon myself and brought a friend here to see you. Do you like him?”

Carter bent down as well. “Hi, Tony. I’m Carter. Nice to meet you.”

Tony gurgled a laugh as though he could understand. He was simply adorable.

Tiffany’s heart melted at his cuteness. “I think Tony likes you. He smiles when he sees you.”

Carter chuckled, “He is an adorable baby. Amelia’s marriage must be complete with him.”

“Yes. Only a child could satisfy their marriage. Especially so when Amelia risked her life to deliver Tony.

To Amelia, Tony is her life,” Tiffany said.

Carter stared at Tony deep in thought.
