Too Much To Bear, My Love Chapter 259


    Chapter 259 You Are Not Her Type


    Isabe couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. With her striking features and curves, she was constantly


    surrounded by men. Being ignored by both Oscar and Kurt made her slightly humiliated.


    “Kurt,” warned Amelia. “Isabe is a guest.”


    Hearing that, Kurt stretched out his hand and said coolly, “Hello. I am Kurt Alfsen.”


    Isabe shed a wry smile. “No wonder Oscar hired you to be his bodyguard. You’re more imposing


    than the usual bodyguards.”


    Instead of answering her, Kurt took Tony from Amelia. “Your arm has just healed, so I’ll hold Tony.”


    Seeing that, Isabe suddenly said, “Amelia, you and Kurt look more like a couple. Together with Tony,


    you look like the perfect family.” It wasn’t sure whether she did it on purpose.


    Amelia threw her a sideways nce.


    Isabe covered her lips as though she had just realized her mistake.


    With an apologetic tone, she said, “I’m sorry, Amelia. I didn’t mean anything else. It was just a casual


    remark. You both look every inch the perfect couple. Your looksplement each other, and I find that


    pleasing to the eye.”


    Kurt gave her a sharp gaze. “Apologize to her.”


    For a moment, Isabe didn’t quite get what he meant.


    “Apologize,” he repeated sternly.


    Isabe was confused.


    With Tony in one arm, he appeared before Isabe in a sh and grabbed her neck with his right hand.


    He lifted her up by force and announced frostily, “I hate women who are presumptuous.”


    Isabe’s face turned red from the chokehold. She pped Kurt’s hand and kicked her feet around


    frantically to free herself.


    Amelia gave a start. “Kurt, release her!” she yelled.


    In response, Kurt tossed her unceremoniously to the ground. Once Isabended on the ground, she


    was invigorated again. After taking a few deep breaths, she red at Kurt angrily. Before she could


    unleash her wrath, the door opened, and Oscar strode in.


    Her angry expression immediately disappeared as she dissolved into pitiful sobs.


    Oscar spared her a brief nce. “What’s wrong?” he asked Amelia.


    Amelia had no words to exin the bizarre situation.


    Kurt revealed stonily, “I taught her a lesson for trying to stir things up. If you’re upset, I’ll willingly get


    punished.”


    Oscar couldn’t be bothered about Isabe’s plight. “Are you all right, Amelia?” he inquired gently.


    Amelia shook her head.

    Feeling utterly humiliated, Isabe scrambled to her feet and eximed indignantly, “Oscar, Amelia, is


    this how you treat a guest?”


    Oscar knitted his brows, for he hated it when women tried to approach him with ulterior motives.


    “I’m sorry, Isabe. Kurt doesn’t like it when strangers get close to him. Please forgive him for his rude


    action. I’ll treat you to a meal sometimeter, all right?” Amelia offered in an effort to appease her.


    Wiping her tears dry, Isabe replied firmly, “Amelia, I’m not pinning the me on you. I want him to


    apologize to me. I was just trying to be nice, but he mistreated me. I don’t deserve that, so please ask


    him to apologize.”


    Amelia bobbed her head before turning to Kurt. “Kurt, you were too harsh to her. Hurry up and


    apologize to Ms. Walker. You can’t be rude to our guest.”


    Obediently, Kurt apologized to Isabe readily. However, his expression remained stoic.


    Isabe bit back her anger and pretended to be easy-going. “I’ll forgive you this once. Amelia, let’s


    head down. I had been back for months but didn’t manage to visit you often. Mrs. Clinton told me


    you’re a great chef. If you don’t mind, can you teach me how to cook?” she inquired eagerly.


    Amelia was stunned. She had no idea what Isabe was getting at. She’s an heiress, so there’s no


    need for her to cook personally.


    A woman would only cook for her loved ones. Isabe was the apple of the eye of the wealthy and


    affluent Walker family. They were extremely powerful in the country even though they resided overseas


    for most of the time.


    Before Amelia could say anything, Oscar answered on her behalf, “Amelia isn’t free. Ms. Walker, you


    should get yourself a teacher.”


    Isabe nced at him before asking, “Oscar, do you dislike me?”


    “Yes,” came Oscar’s curt reply.


    She burst into giggles. “Why? Oscar, a gentleman wouldn’t disgrace ady. Yes, I had just returned


    from Anndur, and you might feel ufortable by my style, but that’s no reason for you to dislike


    me.”


    “You might be a smartdy, but I admire capable women instead of women who loved showing off how


    smart they are,” Oscar told her in a straightforward manner. He didn’t bother sparing her pride.


    Isabe was rather embarrassed.


    “I don’t understand, Oscar.”


    Oscar put an arm around Amelia’s waist and answered, “Forget it, then. Amelia, let’s go.”


    With that, he left with Amelia in tow. Kurt had disappeared with Tony earlier. When Oscar and Amelia


    were no longer in sight, he showed up before Isabe, causing her to backtrack in fear.


    “You’re too ugly to be Boss’ match,” he announced brutally.


    Isabe’s expression hardened. “Come again?” she demanded.


    “It’s pretty obvious what you want. You’re not a good actress, so stop pretending to be one.” Having


    said that, Kurt spun on his heels and headed to Tony’s bed.


    With her intention exposed, Isabe felt both humiliated and disgraced. She stalked to Kurt and


    laughed icily. “Kurt, you don’t know me well. Yes, I admire Oscar, but that doesn’t mean I’ll lower myself


    to be the other woman. You’re nothing but a lowly bodyguard, so watch your mouth!” she dered


    haughtily.


    “Get out.”


    “What?”


    “Get out. Your perfume is disgusting. Tony hates it.”


    Isabe’s face distorted with anger instantly.


    She promptly marched out and mmed the door shut.


    “Isabe, what’s wrong?” Olivia voiced out her concern when she saw Isabe walk down the stairs


    furiously.


    Running toward Olivia, Isabe held back her anger and shook her head. “Mrs. Clinton, I guess Amelia


    doesn’t like me. I was talking to Oscar, but she thought I… She thought I…”


    Her hesitance was enough to fuel anyone’s imagination.


    “Isabe, you might’ve misunderstood Amelia. She won’t act that way. Oscar isn’t close to other


    women, so his female employees are all afraid of him. Perhaps Amelia’s just afraid his icy attitude will


    hurt your feelings,” Olivia offered an exnation.


    shing a nonchnt smile, Isabe answered, “Oh, I see. I’m fine, Mrs. Clinton. My mom just called


    and told us to go home, so I need to get Noah. We’lle visiting again tomorrow.”


    “Okay. I’ll ask Norton to give you a lift.”


    “No need for that, Mrs. Clinton. Noah and I drove here,” Isabe rejected her offer.


    After Olivia saw her to the door, Isabe said, “Mrs. Clinton, I’ll head there to find Noah and Stephanie.


    See you.”


    Olivia nodded in response.


    Shortly after, Isabe found Noah and Stephanie chatting by theke. Perhaps Stephanie couldn’t get


    Noah’s gradual advance, for her reaction was cold.


    “Noah!” Isabe called out.


    Both Noah and Stephanie turned around.


    “Isabe,” Stephanie greeted her warmly. She had a fairly good impression of Isabe.


    Isabe returned her smile before turning to Noah. “Should we head home, Noah? Mom just called.


    Apparently, she needs to talk to us.”


    Noah gave Stephanie an apologetic smile. “We need to go.”


    “Oh? You’re leaving this soon? Isabe, did you see Oscar?” Stephanie inquired.


    “Yes, but he seems to loathe me,” came Isabe’s answer. She sounded disappointed.


    Her lips twitching, Stephanie said, “Isabe, we’re friends, so I shall be honest with you. My sister-in-


    law is a jealous wife who bans Oscar from getting close to other women, including me, his sister. After


    they got married, Amelia has him on a leash. Oh, I wish you were my sister-inw instead!”


    Suddenly, the enormity of what she had just said fully dawned on her. Hastily, she uttered, “Isabe,


    don’t let Amelia know about this. Otherwise, Oscar might reprimand me for babbling nonsense.”


    Shaking her head, Isabe promised, “Of course, I won’t. Well, Noah and I really need to go. We’ll be


    back tomorrow if time allows.”


    “All right. Drive safe!” Stephanie waved.


    Isabe and Noah got into their car and sped away from the Clinton residence. After some distance


    away, Noah took off his sses, his gaze turned cold.


    “Noah, it has been months. Haven’t you conquered Stephanie yet?” Isabe leaned into her seat and


    asked casually.


    “It’ll happen soon,” Noah answered in an icy tone.


    Snorting, Isabe said, “I don’t think you’re Stephanie’s type. Why don’t you show her your true colors?


    Perhaps she prefers domineering men.”


    ncing at her, Noah answered, “You have no say in my matters.”


    “Noah, I have no intention of butting into your matters. Don’t forget that Mom and Dad left orders for


    you to marry her. The Clinton family is the richest family in the city. Marrying their daughter will only


    benefit ourpany. You mustn’t let your guard down. Otherwise, your lover might kick up a fuss. A


    man who can’t even keep his own woman happy is nothing but a loser.” She scoffed.


    “Hey!” Suddenly, Noah stepped on the brakes without warning. Isabe’s body lurched forward from


    the inertia. Fortunately, she was held back by her safety belt.


    Isabe’s heart was still pounding hard as she glowered at Noah. “Have you gone nuts?” she


    demanded.


    “Isabe Walker, this is a warning to stay away from her.” Noah’s warning was so low, it was practically


    a growl.


    Running on sheer anger, Isabe sneered, “Noah, you should win Stephanie over so no one will dare


    toy a hand on your lover. I can’t stand your sheep in wolf’s clothing act. You tried to court her as


    though you were teenagers, but she’s experienced enough to fall for your childish act. You should learn


    some pickup lines. Your young lover might adore you, but you’re nothing but a loser to other women.”


    In the blink of an eye, a hand grabbed her throat.


    It was Noah, who eximed viciously, “Isabe, stay out of my business. Otherwise, I’ll make sure you


    regret it. You might be beautiful, acting high and mighty, but you’re nothing but a loose woman. Oscar


    won’t fall for someone like you. My advice is for you to learn to be a cultured and intelligent woman. No


    man will fall for your sharp tongue.”


    Isabe’s face twisted in fury.


    “I’ll make sure Oscar falls in love with me! Men are born cheaters. So what if he’s married? If I wish,


    he’ll fall head over heels in love with me!” she insisted.


    Shoving her away, Noah replied in a cruel manner, “Compared to you, Amelia is more irresistible. Both


    you and Stephanie are damaged goods that no one wants.” There was cruelty in his tone that warned


    her to stop talking.


    Isabe shot him an indignant re.


    Ignoring her fury, Noah floored the elerator. Slowly, the car picked up speed as Isabe’s petrified


    yells grew louder.
