Too Much To Bear, My Love Chapter 645
Chapter 645 Amazing Acting Skills
The wedding was naturally a grand event since a daughter of the Clintons was getting married. Titans
of every industry and those from distinguished families were all invited. In fact, the Clintons were the
official hosts of the wedding banquet. Even though the Walker family had their objections, they had no
choice but to swallow them in the face of the Clintons’ pressure.
Due to the fact that the Clintons were the main organizers, Stephanie asserted her authority by
ordering the Walkers around. Her domineering behavior naturally caused much angst among them. In
spite of that, no one dared to challenge her out of respect for the Clintons, causing her to smugly
believe that all of them feared her.
When Stephanie was called away by the makeup artist to freshen up her makeup, Rachel wrinkled her
pointy nose and whispered, “Mom, Stephanie is behaving in such an overbearing manner that it’s just
immensely rude. Is she really fit to be a daughter-inw of the Walker family? Considering Noah’s
gentle character, wouldn’t he be bullied by that shrew after getting married?”

Isabe threw Rachel a contemptuous nce. All this while, she never had a good opinion of thetter
and felt that Rachel was of no use to the Walker family. In fact, pretending to be demure was the only
thing Rachel knew. In spite of that, the Walker family treasured her and protected her from the outside
world. Being overprotective as if she was an innocent fool made Isabe quick to temper.
“Rachel, don’t forget that Stephanie is your future sister-inw. How can you still be gossiping about
her when she’s about to be married into the family? Don’t you want your brother to be happily married
and have children? Even though Noah dotes on you, can’t you be less selfish for once?” Isabe
sneered with her arms folded.
Infuriated, Rachel turned red in anger.
“Isabe, I just want the best for Noah too. I hope that he can marry a kind woman that actually loves
him,” Rachelmented.
Snorting in response, Isabe doubted the sincerity of her sister’s words. Is she ying the victim card
again? What a useless person she is, and no different from a coward.
Carol’s expression darkened. “Isabe, stop reprimanding your sister, for she is just concerned for the
family. Stephanie has indeed gone overboard today, and I will need to put her in her ce when she
marries into our family. If she doesn’t know how to show any respect, how is she going to help Noah
run thepany?”
Isabe’s eyes shed with disdain. Stephanie only knows how to enjoy herself and is clueless when it
comes to doing work. In fact, given how spendthrift she is, she would definitely kick up a fuss when she
realizes that the Walker family isn’t as rich as she thought. When the drama begins, I wouldn’t mind
adding fuel to fire. By escting the turmoil within the Walker family, I will have more opportunities to
see Oscar. Mom, Dad, it’s every woman for herself, so please don’t me me for my methods.
Meanwhile, Carol had no idea what was going through Isabe’s mind, as she was praying hard that
the wedding would proceed without incident.
“Isabe, have you taken care of Noah’s girl? Make sure she doesn’t appear and cause any trouble,”
Carol reminded with a frown.
Squirming her lips, she replied, “Mom, you know how much Noah doesn’t like me interacting with her,
as if I would skin her alive. Instead, Rachel enjoys a better rtionship with her, so why don’t you ask
Rachel instead?”
Carol turned to Rachel and asked, “Rachel, do you know where Noah has hidden her?”
Rachel shook her head and replied, “It’s been a long time since I saw her, and I have no idea where
Noah has settled her too.”
A grim expression descended upon Carol’s face. “Rachel, remember, Stephanie is your future sister-in-
law. Therefore, you have to mind your speech to avoid unnecessary conflict. Even though we spoil you,
you should still learn how to behave sensibly, all right?”
Rachel too wasn’t someone easy to read. Despite her easy going demeanor, she definitely wasn’t as
naive as an ordinary girl. After all, she had been raised in a rich and prominent family.
Therefore, no one else but her knew what was truly going on in her mind.
“I understand, Mom,” Rachel replied obediently.
Isabe snorted as scorn shed in her eyes.
The moment the wedding began, Carol adjusted her hair and instructed, “Let’s head out now. Since
we’re the hosts today, we cannot allow the Clintons to steal the show.”
Isabe and Rachel nodded in unison.
The moment the trio stepped out, they saw the entire floor filled with guests. The men were in sharp
suits and leather shoes, while thedies were dressed to the nines in their gowns. With heavy makeup
on, all of them simply looked stunning.
Meanwhile, Stephanie was wearing a white wedding dress as she held Noah’s hand. Together, they
were chatting happily with the guests alongside Olivia and Owen.
“Francis, I’m d that you and your wife could make it to my daughter’s wedding. Let me introduce
you, this is Noah of Walker Group. Going forward, please give him your support. Or else, you will be
hearing from me,” Olivia remarked gleefully.
“Olivia, you’re being too modest. With the Clinton family’s support, there’s no need for the Manly family
to intervene at all. But since you have brought the matter up, I will definitely do my best to help.
Nevertheless, I’ve recently heard that a Walker family had suffered a huge loss in one of their projects.
Obviously, it might not be the same Walker family, as one who could be the son-inw of the
Clintons must be a cut above the rest,” Francis spoke candidly. Patting Noah on his back, he added,
“Young man, you look like someone capable. However, you could use some exercise, as looking too
gentle isn’t good.”
Unoffended by thement, Olivia exined, “Noah, Mr. Manly used to be in the army when he was
young. In fact, he was in the special forces by the time he retired and went into business. He’s
extremely smart and has businesses based in Beshya and Saspiuburg. In Tayhaven, his investments
largely revolve around building materials. Nheless, he is also a well-known figure in the IT industry.
Therefore, if you need any help, feel free to reach out to him.”
Without a change in his expression, Noah broke into a gentle smile. “Mr. Manly, Mrs. Manly, it’s an
honor to meet you.”
Francis replied, “Let’s dispense with the formalities, as I have watched Stephanie grow up. As long as
you treat her well, I’ll definitely do my best to support you.”
Squirming her lips, Stephanie purred like a little girl, “Mr. Manly, you have been so busy that it has been
years since Ist saw you. Instead, the first thing you talk about is business. I get the feeling that you
don’t care about me anymore.”
Widening his eyes, Francis burst into heartyughter.
“Olivia, it seems that your girl is all grown up and has learned how to negotiate. Given how sharp her
tongue is now, I don’t think I’m her match anymore.”
Olivia chuckled in response.
“By the way, where’s Oscar? Why isn’t he here?” Francis asked as he scanned the surroundings.
“Tony had a stomachache yesterday from overeating. Thus, they’ll probably join us a littleter.” Just as
Olivia spoke, Oscar, who was carrying Tony, walked over with Amelia.
Olivia beamed. “Speak of the devil.”
With a distant yet respectful tone, Oscar greeted, “Hello Mr. Manly, it’s a surprise to see you here. I
thought that you were on a business trip overseas.”
Francis was attracted by how cute Tony looked. Upon hearing Oscar’s words, he threw an ungracious
punch at him. “You rascal, just because I have been busy running my business over thest few years,
you have grown daring enough to make jabs at me. If not for the wedding today, I would definitely take
time out to spar with you and check whether your skills have deteriorated.”
“You’re most wee to do that. In fact, I was hoping that you wouldn’t lose too badly to me.” Curling
the corners of his lips, Oscar had learned how to banter.
“Since when did you learn to crack a joke at my expense?”
“Enough, both of you should stop messing around. With so many distinguished guests around, you
shouldn’t embarrass yourselves,” Francis’ wifemented.
Laughing in response, Olivia instructed the wedding couple, “Noah, Stephanie, both of you should go
on and entertain the other guests while I catch up with Mr. and Mrs. Manly.”
After acknowledging her with a nod, Noah led Stephanie to join the other guests for a toast.
After the Clinton and Manly families chatted happily for half an hour, all the guests were gradually
seated while the groom and bride were standing on stage.
After the host was finished with his wee speech, the wedding couple took their vows.
Staring into Stephanie’s eyes, Noah dered sincerely, “Stephanie, from the first time I saw you, I
knew that you were different from every other girl. It was love at first sight given how gorgeous you
were. Before meeting you, I never believed in such a thing and felt that it was an idea for fools. But
after meeting you, I felt as if my being was finallyplete…”
While Noah was affirming his love, Amelia, who was listening amongst the audience, couldn’t resist
whispering, “Oscar, if not for the fact that I know his true colors, even I would have been taken in by his
words. I think your sister has finally met a man who can tolerate her bad temper. When he puts on his
act, no one can tell that he is pretending at all.”
In truth, Noah’s acting skill was the gold standard for every actor. Therefore, Amelia felt that everyone
within the entertainment industry could take a leaf out of Noah’s book on how he could act so
convincingly.
Furthermore, she couldn’t help but feel that he was a terrifying person for his ability to have women
eating out of his hands. To her, a man who manipted women with hypocrisy was the ultimate jerk.
Consequently, she felt that her rtionship with Oscar was an honest one. Compared to how fake
Noah was, Oscar was a true gentleman. Even though he was extremely crafty in the business world,
the opposite was true when it came to their rtionship. He was forthright with his feelings and never
deceived her at all.
