Too Much To Bear, My Love Chapter 483
Chapter 483 I Will Send Someone To Protect You
Back at the office, Rory walked over to Amelia and pretended to ask in concern, “Amelia, is that guy
your friend?”
“He’s the fiancé of someone I previously knew. He came to check with me on some random stuff. We
parted ways after we left the restaurant,” Amelia replied casually.
Rory nodded and said in an exceptionally innocent manner, “Amelia, why are all your friends so good-
looking? I almost mistook him for a celebrity.”
Amelia merely smiled and did not reply.
Rory sensed that Amelia was not keen on continuing the conversation. As such, she did not speak any
further and returned to her seat.
Right after Amelia sat down and turned on herputer, her phone chimed. It was a text message.
When she took out her phone, she saw that it was a text from an unknown number.
With a frown, she decided to take a look at the message.
The sender texted: Amelia, I’m June. This is my number. I’m very happy that I got to have lunch with
you just now. I hope you can be my beautiful rose and be carved into my heart forever.
What a madman, Amelia cursed silently before deleting the man’s text.
It was undeniable that Amelia’s mood had been affected by June’s sudden appearance. She was
distracted at work, as she could not help but wonder why the man had shown up. As she knew how
much Cassie resented her, she was worried that June had malicious intentions toward her and would
cause misunderstandings between her and Oscar.
Amelia rubbed her temples, trying to calm her overactive mind down. She was not worried that June
and Cassie might cause her any trouble. She was worried that they wouldy their hands on Tony
instead.
Because of her overthinking, for the first time, Amelia did not manage toplete her work when it was
time to knock off.
Seeing that she was still halfway through her blueprint drawing, she could not help but smile bitterly.
She could hardly believe that she had let her thoughts affect her work. It was simply out of character for
her.
“Amelia, are you ready to leave?” Rory walked over to her desk. When she saw the halfpleted
blueprint, she asked in confusion, “Amelia, are you not done with the drawing? Is there something on
your mind? When I looked over just now, I could tell that you seem quite bothered.”
Amelia saved the upleted drawing into a USB drive and shut down herputer. “I’m all right. I
just didn’t have much inspiration for the drawing earlier on. Let’s go.”
The women took the elevator down together and exited the building. Amelia was looking around for
Oscar’s car when she received a call from the man in question.
“Oscar, have you arrived?” Amelia asked.
“I’m stuck in a traffic jam. I’ll only reach half an hourter. Wait for me inside the office,” Oscar replied
over the phone.
“Sure. Be safe.”
Amelia hung up after that. Looking at Amelia hopefully, Rory quickly asked, “Amelia, is Mr. Clinton
reaching soon?”
Amelia cast a nce at Rory, sending a chill down Rory’s spine. Rory immediately retracted her
expectant gaze and said smilingly, “Amelia, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on
my face?”
Amelia looked away and replied with a smile, “It’s nothing. Rory, you should head back first. Oscar will
take some time to get here.”
“I want to…” Stay. With Amelia looking at her, Rory did not dare to say thatst word out loud. She was
afraid that the other woman could see through her thoughts.
“If that’s the case, I’ll head back first, then,” Rory said while looking at her surroundings. She was only
willing to give up after making sure that there was no car approaching the building.
Amelia watched thoughtfully as Rory walked away. Her gaze darkened.
Rory, please don’t disappoint me.
Oscar finally arrived half an hourter.
Amelia walked over with a smile on her face and got into the car.
Oscar leaned in to help her fasten her seat belt before kissing her on her forehead. “Sorry to keep you
waiting.”
Amelia shook her head. “It’s fine.”
“We’re having dinner at the Clinton residence tonight,” Oscar said abruptly once he started driving.
Amelia froze for a moment, and she could feel her throat go dry.
Oscar reached out and held the woman’s hand before saying, “Don’t think too much. You’ve been back
for a while now. No matter what Mom thinks, you’re my woman and Tony’s mother after all. She knows
that it’s impossible for me to give up on you. So she’ll always end up giving in even though it’ll take a
while.”
Amelia looked down to hide her true emotions. When she looked up again, a smile was already
stered across her face.
Looking outside the window, Amelia said, “All right, then. We’ll have dinner at the Clinton residence
tonight. But it’s better to inform Mom and Dad beforehand. Otherwise, it might upset them if I suddenly
show up.”
“I’ve already informed Mom. Don’t worry. You’re Tony’s mother after all,” Oscar replied.
Amelia understood what Oscar meant and did not speak any further.
When the car was on the highway where traffic was smoother, Amelia pondered for a while before
saying, “Oscar, I have something to tell you.”
The man turned to look at her and said encouragingly, “What is it? I’m listening.”
“Do you know someone by the name of June? He’s Cassie’s fiancé,” Amelia asked softly.
Oscar’s eyes suddenly darkened. “Did he look for you?”
Amelia nodded and replied honestly, “He came to look for me today and wanted to have a chat about
Cassie, so we had lunch together. From what I feel, even though he behaved very gentlemanly, he
seems like a man whose mood swings are impossible to predict. Anyway, he feels like danger. Oscar,
you should be careful. I’m worried that he might hurt you.”
After listening to what Amelia said, Oscar let out the breath he didn’t realize he had been holding.
The corners of his mouth curled up into a confident smile as he replied, “I dealt with him two years
back. He’s indeed pretty smart, but he’s no match for me. You should stay away from him. He’s one of
the Adertons, a prominent and powerful family overseas. You are definitely not his match. This won’t
do. I’ll get Hugo and Jean to protect you, or I’ll be worried if I leave you alone.”
A crease appeared between the man’s brows as he spoke.
Amelia chuckled and gripped his hand. “I’m fine. You don’t have to send people to protect me. That’s
overreacting. Besides, we’re in Chanaea. No matter how influential his family is, they don’t belong here.
I don’t think their powers would be of much use here. Don’t worry too much.”
Oscar pressed his lips together. It was obvious that the woman’s words had failed to reassure him.
“I promise that I will be careful and protect myself. It wasn’t easy for the two of us to get together. I
won’t let any harm get to me,” Amelia said, swinging Oscar’s hand.
Oscar mulled over it for a while. “How about I get Jean to protect you? Even though herbat and
observation skills are not as good as Kurt’s and Hugo’s, she’s still one of my best bodyguards. I’ll feel
more at ease with her protecting you.”
The image of that woman, whose expression was always as cold as ice, immediately surfaced in
Amelia’s mind.
“I think there’s no need for that. It’s a waste of her talent to get her to protect me,” Amelia rejected.
“Oscar, I’ll tell you the moment I feel that I’m in danger. You’re the closest person to me in this world. I
won’t cause you trouble by putting myself in danger.”
In the end, Oscar had no choice but topromise.
“Just promise me that if you find yourself in any sort of trouble or danger, you have to let me know
immediately, all right?”
“Yes, I will.”
Hearing that, the man finally relented.
When they were almost reaching the Clinton residence, Amelia asked casually, “Did you train Jean
when she was young as well?”

“I chose her to join my team of bodyguards when she was ten, and she has been here since. It’s been
almost seventeen years. Even though she doesn’t talk much, she’s very loyal and capable. In the
future, she will be working for you as well. Feel free to use her help if you need it,” Oscar replied
honestly.
Amelia fell deep in thought.
“Oscar, it suddenly feels like there’s so much I don’t know about you. It seems like I keep discovering
new things about you,” Amelia suddenly said, feeling emotional.
Oscar retracted his hand and tucked a loose strand of hair behind the woman’s ear. “Stop thinking so
much. If you really want to know, I can share with you more about the other side of me. However, that’s
a rather dark and violent world. Everyone I’ve trained has someone’s blood on their hands, including
Kurt. I don’t want to keep anything from you, but I don’t want you to be scared of me either. I just want
to show you who I really am.”
Amelia was initially a little stunned, but she recovered after a while. With a smile on her face, she said,
“I could guess a little. I just didn’t expect your identity to be such a mystery. Do you also have had
blood on your hands?”
Oscar kept quiet, but Amelia knew that it was his way of saying yes.
“Have you taken any innocent lives?”
Oscar remained silent for a long while before answering, “Just once. I killed someone innocent by
mistake. That was the first time I made a mistake. After that, I stopped going on missions gradually and
took over Clinton Corporations instead. Why, are you scared of me now?”
Amelia was more or less affected when she heard that.
After taking a deep breath, she replied nonchntly, “Oscar, it seems like I really have a lot more to
learn about you. I hope that one day, you’ll tell me everything. There should be no secrets between us.”
“Silly girl, just ask me anything you want to know.”
“I’ve already learned enough for the day. I want to get to know you slowly so that I will have lots of
opportunities to be amazed by how outstanding the man I love is.”
Hearing that, Oscar could not help but smile at how adorable his woman was.
