Too Much To Bear, My Love Chapter 491
Chapter 491 Career Over Love
Amelia’s interaction with Anthony was warm and lovely. As for Oscar, he was watching indulgently from
the side. Seeing that, Isabe was overwhelmed with jealousy.
She clenched her fists tightly before calming herself down. “Oscar, there’s something my brother and I
need to attend to. We shall make a move. We’ll visit Tony again some other day.”
Oscar threw her a casual nce before giving her a slight nod.
Isabe was furious when she left the hospital with Noah. As soon as she got into the car, she looked
at Noah and said mockingly, “Noah, I feel ashamed for you. You’re really invested in maintaining a
rtionship with someone you don’t love just to get the Clintons’ financial support, aren’t you? You’re
such a disgrace.”
Noah cast a nce at her upon hearing that. “Watch your tone, Isabe. You’re not a kid anymore. One
day, you’ll get in trouble over the things you say. I don’t care what you do, as long as you don’t
jeopardize my rtionship with Stephanie. Otherwise, I’lle for you. To be frank, I don’t see Oscar
falling for you anytime soon. Instead of being so shamelessly persistent, why don’t you focus on
helping me in my rtionship with Stephanie? Besides, it’s not like you won’t reap the benefits
afterward.”
A chilly re shed across Isabe’s eyes. “Are you not my brother, Noah? Anybody else’s brother
would definitely help their sister to find a good husband. So why are you adding insult to my injury
instead? I don’t even object to your rtionship with Stephanie. What right do you have to intervene in
my n to marry Oscar? If I can marry him, don’t you think I’d have more say than Stephanie? Oscar
doesn’t even like Stephanie for the mistakes she has made.”
“Hahaha! You? Marrying Oscar? In your dreams! He’s not even into you! Otherwise, why have you
gotten nothing after throwing yourself at him all this while? I thought you said you could make any man
attracted to you? Based on what I saw, it seems like you’re getting nowhere. I don’t give a hoot about
your personal rtionships. However, I’ll get Mom and Dad to send you back to Anndur if you’re
stupid enough to anger Oscar.”
Isabe clenched her fists tightly. “Noah, it’s only a matter of time before Oscar falls for my charm.
Since I don’t meddle in your personal rtionships, please stay out of mine. If you keep testing me, I
won’t hesitate to ruin all of your ns. If I don’t get what I desire, I’ll make sure you’re doomed as well.”
In response, Noah merely cast his sister a nce and kept mum.
Upon arriving at the Walker residence, Carol got up from the sofa abruptly and approached them. “Hey,
I was just on the phone with Olivia. She told me that Tony is hospitalized after drinking the yogurt that
you guys bought. What’s going on? Why on earth would you buy yogurt to drink? Those drinks are for
the peasants!”
Noah rubbed his forehead restlessly and said, “Mom, it’s all just a misunderstanding. I’ve already
brought Isabe to the hospital to apologize to Oscar. I think that’s the end of the matter. So don’t
worry, Mom.”
Upon hearing that, Carol was even more agitated.
“What do you mean that’s the end of it? Judging from Olivia’s tone, she was ming both of you!
Besides, she even said she’d like to reconsider your marriage with Stephanie. Don’t you see how
serious this is?” Carol thundered.
When she brought her children back from overseas, Carol had been trying to get the Walker family
back to the glory days at the expense of the Clintons. She had even sacrificed her only son to please
Stephanie even though Carol knew she was a spoiled girl. Hence, she wasn’t ready to see all her
efforts go down the drain.
Noah’s expression instantly darkened as he took off his sses. “Did you hear wrongly, Mom? I was
just on the phone with Mrs. Clinton when we were on the way to the hospital. She sounded fine to me
then. How did everything change within a couple of hours?”
Carol heaved a sigh before saying tiredly, “I’ll bring the two of you to pay the Clintons a visit. I don’t
care if you guys didn’t do it on purpose. Just apologize to them. Our family can’t afford to go up against
the Clintons at this moment.”
Isabe instantly protested, “Mom, why should I go? This is all Noah’s doing. I don’t want to take the
me for him!”
Carol rolled her eyes at her daughter. “Isabe, your brother is our family’s only hope. It’s only natural if
you take the fall as long as it helps him. Your words deeply saddened me, you know? I’ve put in all my
efforts on you so that you could help your brother seed instead of dragging him down.”
Isabe was livid by then. “What do you mean by that, Mom? How am I dragging him down? Don’t you
think I want to get married to a good husband and have kids too? I don’t even know anything about any
yogurt! Everything happened because Noah listened to Stephanie when she told him to give the yogurt
away. However, I’ve been instructed to apologize to Oscar out of the blue. Why am I taking the fall
instead of Stephanie? Am I not a daughter of a rich family as well? I don’t get it. Also, I won’t admit to
anything in front of Mrs. Clinton because I don’t want her to dislike me.” With that, Isabe stormed up
to her room.
“What a spoiled brat!” Carol fumed. “Is that how she talks to me, her mother? She’s not even married
into the Clintons yet. I bet she’s going to forget all about us once she’s married.”
“Calm down, Mom. Anyway, I think it’s better for us to go visit the Clintons tomorrow. Since Mrs. Clinton
is still mad, I doubt she’d listen to us.” Noah’s gaze darkened.
Carol sighed and got Noah to sit on the sofa with her. “Noah, tell me the truth. How’s your rtionship
with Stephanie?”
“Well, she’s a little stubborn. However, I’m sure she’ll fall for me eventually if I keep letting her have her
way. Once she has fallen for me, I’ll marry her. By then, I doubt Mrs. Clinton will sit by and watch the
Walker family fall. Don’t worry, Mom. I’ll bring back the glory days so that you won’t have to worry about
anything in life.”
Hearing that, Carol was filled with guilt. “I’m so sorry, Noah. Although I knew how difficult of a girl
Stephanie is, I still forced you to be with her. Do you me me?”
Noah smiled warmly. “Mom, you’re overthinking it. After all, I’m part of the Walker family. I’ll reap the
benefits too if the Walker family is strong. In my view, I’m a person who prioritizes career over love.
Since that’s the case, I’d rather marry someone who could bring me the most benefits in my career.”
“Are you sure, Noah?” Carol was unconvinced.
“Don’t worry about me, Mom. I know what I’m doing. I really don’t think love is that important in life.”
Suddenly, a flicker of malice glinted in his eyes when he said, “My ambition is to be above everyone
else in life instead of being a fake goody two shoes like the Clintons. I’m determined to rise above all of
them. When I crush them, I’ll force them to respect me.”
Carol was stunned by her son’s strong aura.
After a few seconds, Noah calmed himself down and reverted back to the gentleman he usually was
again.
“Mom, did I scare you?”
“No, it’s just that I didn’t expect you to have such an aggressive side. Indeed, you’re much bolder than
your dad. If only your dad was a better businessman, we wouldn’t be in this position now. Although we
have businesses overseas, they’re crumbling down as we speak.” Carol let out a sigh and continued,
“Noah, you’d better keep that a secret. Otherwise, all your efforts on Stephanie would be wasted.”

“Don’t worry, Mom. I was quite worried we’d get exposed when Oscar was still in love with Isabe.
However, I have total control of Stephanie now. She won’t be able to escape my grasp,” Noah
narrowed his eyes and said with a vicious tone.
“Still, it’s better to be safe than sorry, Noah.”
“I got it, Mom.”
The atmosphere turned harmonious again after their conversation.
