Too Much To Bear, My Love Chapter 651
Chapter 651 Waiting For The Right Moment To Counterattack
Oscar and Amelia were already seated by the time Noah returned to the Clinton residence, and a
sense of guilt engulfed him as he saw Oscar.
“Hi, Oscar. Hi, Amelia,” the man greeted,posing himself.
Oscar shot him an unusual nce. “Mom says you headed down to your office. You don’t have to work
so hard right aftering back from your honeymoon.”
Noah beamed. “Okay. I’ll do my best to take it slower so I can spend more time with Stephanie.”
“I’m d to see you treating Stephanie well. Keep it up.” Smiling, Oscar patted him on the shoulder. “If
there’s any help you need at work, let me know. We’re family. You can tell me anything.”
“Thanks, Oscar. I will.”
Stephanie skipped over to Oscar with a te of shrimp the moment she left the kitchen, and she even
shoved Amelia aside with her bum. “Here, Oscar! Try some shrimp that Mom made. It’s really good.”
Oscar grabbed a piece and deshelled it perfectly before cing it in front of Amelia, who then opened
her mouth to eat it.
A look of displeasure shed in Stephanie’s eyes as she saw that. “Look at what a gentleman Oscar is
to Amelia, Noah. Won’t you peel some shrimp for me too?”
Noah grabbed thergest shrimp and fed it to her after peeling it. “Do you like it?”
“Yup!” the woman replied while sneaking a triumphant nce at Amelia.
“Do you want more?”
“Yes.”
Amelia merely handed Oscar a piece of wet tissue, pretending not to notice Stephanie’s acts of
pettiness.
Seeing that, thetter gnashed her teeth in fury, but her expression softened after Oscar shot her a
warning re.
Perhaps because Oscar now got along better with his sister, Olivia seemed to be in an exceptional
mood. Coupled with Tony’s impish yet charming personality, the woman could be heardughing at the
dinner table most of the time.
Overjoyed, she fed Tony a lot of food while also keeping her own te filled.
“You and Noah should head back now, Stephanie. Noah’s parents must be frantic by now. Be sure to
apologize to them, and don’t act up just because Noah dotes on you. Do you understand?” said Olivia
after dinner.
Stephanie nodded reluctantly. “Okay, Mom.”
After finally not having to deal with her mother’s chiding, the young woman entered the car and leaned
closer to Noah, who was in the driver’s seat. “Did you see that, Noah? My brother actually put some
food on my te during dinner! You’re my lucky charm. He’s finally treating me like an equal after I
married you!” she gushed.
“Does that make you happy?”
“Of course it does!” Stephanie unbuckled her seatbelt, crawled over to the man, and fiddled with his
coat. Suddenly, she froze on the spot and screamed, “Stop the car!”
Noah immediately mmed the brakes in shock.
Stephanie pointed to a red stain on his white shirt. “What is this, Noah Walker? Why is there a woman’s
lipstick stain on your shirt? Are you seeing someone else behind my back?” she interrogated.
Noah’s face fell as he nced at the mark.
How could he have been so careless?
“You’d bettere clean now, Noah! What’s with this stain? You won’t hear the end of it if you don’t
give me a proper exnation for this!”
Noah turned to her and chuckled.
“What’s so funny?” the woman asked in bewilderment.
“Did you forget how you couldn’t wait to kiss me before I even took my clothes off, Stephanie? You
kissed me on my shirt here. I knew about it the moment I woke up this morning, but I didn’t want to get
a new shirt because this stain symbolizes your love for me,” Noah answered lovingly.
Stephanie peered at him skeptically. “Really?”
The man flicked her lightly on the forehead. “I’m already exhausted from having to please you, you little
minx. What makes you think I’d have the energy to put up with another woman? Besides, I’ll only have
eyes for you for the rest of my life. No other woman matters to me.”
Stephanie’s expression softened after she heard that.
“Fine. I forgive you this time, but if I ever catch you cheating on me, I’m going to castrate you and find
myself another man.”
Resentment gleamed in Noah’s eyes, but he remained gentle on the surface. “Come on, silly girl, put
your seatbelt back on. Mom and Dad are still waiting for us at home. They might call again if we don’t
get home soon.”
The woman fastened her seatbelt obediently.
Instead of coaxing her patiently like he always did, Noah merely nced at her this time. He was
always suspicious, but all the recent events—including the way Oscar was treating him—had really
worn him out, and he just didn’t have the energy to deal with Stephanie now. Oscar’s silhouette
haunted every part of his brain, and he couldn’t stop trying to figure out what the former’s intentions
were.
Upon arriving at the Walker residence, Stephanie nced at him warily. “Sorry, Noah. I was too rash.
Don’t be mad, okay? I have a surprise for you when we get in.”
Noah caressed her head and smiled. “Let’s go.”

With that, they both entered the house with the woman clinging to his arm.
Meanwhile, Amelia and Oscar had just left the Clinton residence. “Mom looked much happier than
usual today, and Stephanie seems to have grown up quite a bit,” Amelia remarked. “How about paying
Noah’s mistress off so she’d leave him? A happy family is a sessful one, after all. Mom would also
be upset if Stephanie’s marriage didn’t turn out well.”
Oscar nced at her from the rearview mirror and smirked. “You’re wavering?”
“That’s not it. I just feel that everyone will be okay as long as Stephanie’s happy with her marriage.
Otherwise, Mom and Dad would have to put up with her tantrums, and we might be affected too. That’s
why instead of getting back at her and causing everyone upset, maybe we’d be better off just hiding the
truth,” Amelia exined while gently patting a sleeping Tony. “I’m not on her side. I just want to live in
peace. Even I get a headache when she acts up.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll take care of this so you don’t have to,” Oscar assured.
Amelia nodded in response.
“Don’t go too far, though. She’s still your sister. Mom will be devastated if she ever finds out,” she
reminded.
In truth, the woman still despised Stephanie. But after having gone through so many ordeals that could
easily break someone—such as being shunned by her own family, nearly getting jailed after being set
up, and getting blinded—she had learned to let things go and rise above almost any trouble that came
her way.
Oscar merely smiled and said nothing.
He had, in fact, no intention of letting Stephanie and Noah off. Apart from his parents, Amelia, and
Tony, there was no one in this world who could get away after crossing him. He hadn’t given up on
revenge; he was now just waiting for the right time tond the finishing blow on his enemies and make
sure they could never recover.
That was the best way to deal with one’s opponents.
