Too Much To Bear, My Love Chapter 708
Chapter 708 Her Chance
As Amelia Hutton was still overwhelmed by jealousy and envy, Eleanor’s sickness recurred again.
When she felt pain in her head, she would m her head against the wall. All the doctors could do was
give her injections to soothe the pain. However, those injections could only do so much. Once the pain
struck again, she would grab and pull handfuls of hair off of her head.
Amelia Winters and the rest were heartbroken when they saw that. She then held James’ hand, gulped,
and asked anxiously, “James, answer me honestly. What’s the sess rate for my mom’s surgery?”
“It depends.” James looked grim. “If we are dealing with an early stage malignant brain tumor and it’s
small, we can have it removed as long as the tumor’s position is favorable. Even if it isn’t, we can
proceed with treatment and remove it once it decreases in size. However, Mrs. Hutton’s cancer is
already in the middle stage. For cancer patients with malignant brain tumors in the middle andte
stages, the surgical resection it’s almost impossible. With that being said, Mrs. Hutton’s determination
is apudable, and she cooperates well with our treatment ns. I’ll try my best to think of a
nonaggressive surgery for Mrs. Hutton. If it’s truly impossible for her to have an operation, I would
suggest that we proceed conservatively. In the meantime, it’s best if her diet includes vegetables such
as celery and mushrooms. These foods are beneficial for intracranial blood vessels, and they can
lessen the side effects of chemotherapy. Also, I think it’s better to transfer Mrs. Hutton to Tayhaven
because my hospital is there. I can’t stay in Saspiuburg and attend to her at all times.”

After giving it some thought, Amelia answered, “I’ll discuss it with the Hutton family. If they agree to it,
I’ll transfer my mom to Tayhaven as soon as possible.”
“Make it quick, okay? Time is of the essence. If her condition gets worse, she won’t be strong enough
to travel far,” James urged.
Amelia nodded and asked, “James, have you gotten a reply from your mentor?”
“I couldn’t get through to him. At this time of the year, he’s deep inside the forest to find the herbs he
needs. He doesn’t get much reception there, so we can rarely get to him. If he needs something, he’ll
call us. Otherwise, I think we’ll only be able to contact him three monthster.”
James’ words had shattered Amelia’s hopes.
She looked dejected.
Right then, Oscar put his arm around her shoulder and said, “Don’t worry. I’ve already contacted the
top neurosurgeons from abroad, and they should be here soon.”
Amelia merely leaned on his shoulder and kept mum. What did I do to deserve this? Ever since I was
involved in the car ident when I was pregnant with Tony, it seems that I’m drawn to the hospitals for
some inexplicable reason. Everyone around me has fallen sick with minor and major illnesses. At this
point, I feel like there’s a better chance of someone I know getting admitted to the hospital than me
winning the lottery. Wait. Do I have to spend the rest of my life in a hospital?
Evidently, she was utterly devastated.
James stayed in Saspiuburg for a few days before he flew back to Tayhaven. Back in Tayhaven, he had
a major surgery to carry out, so he couldn’t stay in Saspiuburg for long.
Amelia and Oscar both sent James to the airport. When they were on their way back, Oscar noticed
how tired Amelia looked. Not only did she have dark eye circles, but she had also lost a lot of weight.
Oscar’s heart broke when he saw the state she was in.
Oscar frowned and said, “Amelia, I’ll send you back to the hotel for a rest, okay? If you carry on like
this, I’ll be heartbroken.”
Amelia shook her head. “Oscar, I’m fine. I just need a shuteye. With the condition Mom is in, I won’t be
able to fall asleep even if I am to go back to the hotel.”
Oscar nced at her through the rearview mirror and saw how conspicuous her dark eye circles were
because of her fair skin. Although his heart was aching, he knew he couldn’t convince her, so he felt
rather helpless.
When they arrived at the hospital, Oscar parked the car carefully and went to the backseat of the car.
After that, he gently wrapped his arms around Amelia and adjusted the seat so that she could sleep
better.
After some time, Amelia woke up and saw Oscar’s face up close. She was shocked momentarily
before she regained herposure and asked with a smile, “How long have I slept?”
“Almost two hours.”
Amelia pulled herself from his embrace and asked, “Why didn’t you wake me up?”
“You were too tired, and you refused to go back to the hotel to rest. Hence, I had no choice but to let
you sleep in the car. You’re too stubborn, you know? My heart aches for you. When will you not let me
worry about you so much?” Oscar uttered helplessly and dotingly.
Amelia caressed his cheek and answered, “I know you’re worried about me. However, I’m fine, really.
You, on the other hand, haven’t gotten much sleep because you’ve been keeping mepany. Why
don’t you go back to the hotel and rest? Be good, okay? Don’t say no to me.”
Oscar held her hand and looked at her intently. “Okay. I’ll go back and rest. If you need anything at the
hospital, call me. Don’t shoulder everything by yourself.”
“Okay.” Amelia suddenly recalled something funny, and she said, “Oscar, I think I’ve given you some of
my bad luck. You’ve been visiting hospitals all the time!”
“It doesn’t matter. All that matters is that you’re safe. I don’t give a hoot about other people’s sickness.”
Amelia was rendered speechless.
She then pinched his cheek, and they were both staring at each other tenderly.
The couple then immersed themselves in the moment of intimacy. After a while, Amelia uttered gently,
“Oscar, go back and rest. I know you’re strong, but my heart aches for you too when I see how taxing
this is for you.”
Oscar nodded in response.
After getting out of the car, Amelia watched Oscar drive away before going back into the hospital.
When she arrived outside the ward, she saw Amelia Hutton and Sean walking toward her.
“Amy, you’re back!” Sean said.
Amelia Hutton was curious as to why Oscar wasn’t there. “Amy, where’s Oscar?”
Amelia Winters answered unguardedly, “I told him to go back to the hotel and rest. He hasn’t slept
much because he has been keeping mepany in the hospital for the past few days.”
Amelia Hutton’s eyes lit up right away after she heard that, and her lips curled up into a smile. This is
my chance. Once Oscar gets to see how attractive I am, he may fall for me.
She was very confident with her looks. Besides, she looked identical to Amelia Winters, so she was
certain that Oscar would be interested in her. If I make the first move, I’m sure I’ll be able to charm him
and make him mine.
Amelia Winters saw the dazed look on Amelia Hutton’s face, so she asked, “Amelia, are you okay?”
Amelia Hutton returned to her senses and smiled. “I’m all right, Amy. You were heading in to see Mom,
right? Go on.”
“Are you not going in?” Amelia Winters asked.
“I’m heading out to get some fresh air. It hurts me to see Mom suffer.”
“Oh, okay. Go on, then.”
After Amelia Winters went into the ward, Sean grabbed Amelia Hutton’s hand and warned, “Amelia,
don’t do anything foolish. Otherwise, I won’t lend you a shoulder to cry on if you get humiliated.
Sometimes, it’s better not to be too full of yourself.”
Amelia Hutton feigned ignorance and asked, “What are you talking about, Sean?”
Sean stared at her darkly and answered, “You know exactly what I’m talking about.”
Amelia Hutton scoffed haughtily and replied, “Sean, I have no idea what you’re on about. I’m going to
leave now.”
“Amelia…”
Amelia Hutton ignored him and walked away without turning back.
Sean’s expression turned even grimmer as he watched her walking away. I hope she won’t do anything
stupid. However, she’s stubborn, foolish, and too full of herself. Although she thinks she’s doing
something smart, others will always think otherwise.
