Too Much To Bear My Love

Too Much To Bear, My Love Chapter 868

Chapter 868 Flying Home

Tiffany arrived at the hospital to see Amelia and Kurt in the field. She could feel the change in the atmosphere between the both of them as a look of confusion flashed across her eyes. Tiffany walked over. “Hi, Amelia. Hi, Kurt!”

Amelia turned and looked at her. “You’re here.” Tiffany sat beside Amelia before placing the things in her hands on the chair. “Kurt, you look better now. I think you can be discharged in a few days.”

“Tiffany, can you find out whether I could be discharged within these two days? I want to go home and rest. It’s annoying to stay in the hospital and sniff the smell of Lysol all day.” Kurt smiled.

“I can’t make the decision on this. Ask Amelia. You got hurt because of her, so she is really worried about you. You have to get her permission to be discharged.” Tiffany shrugged as she teased Amelia.

Kurt grinned as he turned and looked at Amelia.

Without surprise, Amelia stated firmly, “Kurt, you have not fully recovered yet. Why don’t you stay in the hospital for another ten days? If the doctor says you are fine by then, we will get you discharged. Please don’t argue with me. I won’t let you go home now.”

Kurt smiled gently without saying anything.

The trio sat there for about an hour before heading up. Tiffany opened the lunchbox she had brought and presented Kurt with a bowl of mushroom soup.

Kurt’s brows furrowed as he took the soup and downed it in one sitting like it was some poison.

With the soup out of the way, Kurt spoke. “Tiffany, can you prepare some stir-fried food for me? I’m tired of drinking mushroom soup and don’t want to drink it every day.”

“Kurt, you’re being ungrateful. I come back and forth every day bringing food for you. Yet, you dare to complain? Do you want to eat oatmeal and salad tomorrow?”

Kurt merely lay in bed quietly.

“All right. I’ll cook something different tomorrow. You win!” Tiffany admitted defeat.

Kurt’s mood brightened up as he smiled.

After Kurt fell asleep, Tiffany pulled Amelia outside.

“Babe, did you talk things through with Kurt? The atmosphere between you two is different now. It’s no longer so suffocating,” Tiffany whispered.

“We did. I told him I couldn’t give him the love that he wanted. But, I will put him in my heart. He will be family to Tony and me!” A flash of complicated emotion appeared in Amelia’s eyes. “Maybe he knows I can’t love him that way, so he agreed. Kurt is a lovely person. I hope a woman who loves him unconditionally will appear soon to start a family with him.”

“Good. It’s great that your thoughts are out in the open. Don’t keep things in your heart anymore. If you are unhappy, Kurt would be unhappy too,” Tiffany comforted.

She pitied Kurt. Even though he knew the ending, he still followed them here without regret. What was more, he even took a bullet for Amelia. If they were in love, they would have been a compatible couple. Sadly, it was a one-sided love on Kurt’s part. Maybe they should remain as a family and that would be the best resolution.

Amelia merely smiled in response. She was not oblivious to her feelings for Kurt. Amelia was moved by the many things that he had done for her. However, she had given all of her love to Oscar, so she could

only suppress her fondness for Kurt. She wouldn’t allow a third party to interfere in her relationship, so she could only let Kurt down. One party would always have to back out of a love triangle.

Tiffany told Amelia to head into Kurt’s ward because she had to run to school for her scriptwriting class. She also promised that she would be back by nighttime.

Kurt stayed in the hospital for another ten days. Just as he felt like he was going to rot, Amelia asked the doctor for his opinion on whether Kurt could be discharged. After multiple promises and guarantees from the doctor that Kurt was fine, Amelia finally agreed to proceed with the discharge procedure.

Teddy was present on the day Kurt was discharged. He apologized sincerely, “Mr. Alfsen, the suspect has been detained. He was going after me and a few others at the gala. I’m sorry for dragging Amelia into this mess and getting you shot in the process of you protecting her.”

Kurt shook his head politely. “It’s no big deal.”

He was happy that he got to spend so many days being close to Amelia.

Teddy picked up the suitcase and left first with Tiffany, who had Tony in her arms.

After arriving home, Amelia helped Kurt sit down on the couch. She urged, “Kurt, are you sure you are feeling fine? Don’t hold it in if you are feeling uncomfortable.” All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Kurt smiled. Warmth filled his heart as Kurt fixed his gaze on Amelia, who was busy trying to make him feel comfortable.

I know as time passes, I’ll get to spend less time with her. However, I still couldn’t help but wish for these days to become longer, so I could get more time to be around Amelia.

“Why are you staring at me?” Amelia was amused by Kurt’s action.

Kurt retracted his gaze, shaking his head.

Amelia smiled. She didn’t put much thought into deciphering the meaning behind Kurt’s gaze. Instead, Amelia and Tiffany went to the farmer’s market to buy a lot of ingredients so they could cook for him to help Kurt regenerate his health.

That night, the four adults and one kid had their best time during dinner. Amelia even permitted Kurt to consume alcohol. It might be due to the happiness of discharging from the hospital or something else, but Kurt got himself drunk after three glasses of alcohol. Teddy had to help him into the room after that.

After that, Kurt lay on the bed, talking in his dream, mentioning Amelia’s name at every turn.

Both Amelia and Tiffany who stood by the bed heard it.

Tiffany spoke. “Babe, even though Kurt looked suave and dashing, he is a loyal man. I’m afraid it’s hard for him to fall in love with another woman after meeting you. You must live your life carrying his love in your heart.”

Amelia frowned. She couldn’t bear to see Kurt in such a pathetic state.

I shouldn’t have allowed Kurt to follow us to Beshya back then. It was a big mistake on my part. Kurt’s kindness toward me has become a burden eating my heart now.

Tiffany wrapped her arm around Amelia’s shoulder and brought her outside. “You must be knackered after these few days. I’ll take care of Kurt today.”

With that, she let Tony hold Amelia’s hand before the duo walked into the bedroom together. Then, she closed Kurt’s bedroom door.

Tiffany propped her arms on her hips as she gritted her teeth. “Get up now, Kurt. Don’t act drunk to mess with me. I’ll ask Amelia to come over if you don’t open your eyes when I count until three.”

Just as Tiffany counted until two, the drunken Kurt opened his eyes. His eyes were clear, with no signs of intoxication.

Tiffany looked on with an expression that indicated she expected this outcome.

“Kurt, is it fun to act drunk? Are you happy that Amelia feels guilty toward you? You know she is in love with someone else. Yet, you are using the wound on your body as a tool for her to pity you. What do you want by doing that? You used to be a kind man around Amelia. Why are you being such a manipulative prick now? You told her you would treat her as family. Then, you go around and use her guilt to trap her so that she will stay with you. What a great job, Kurt!” Tiffany pointed at Kurt as she lectured him.

Kurt’s eyes darkened. “Tiffany, I think I can be the one to make her happy. Don’t you feel the same way?”

Tiffany paused, swallowing her unspoken words. The woman rapidly tried to search her mind for something to say. “Kurt, be honest with me. What are you trying to do?”

“I’m giving my love a fair chance. I love Amelia so much, yet I’ve always repressed my feelings. When we returned from Beshya, I’d already decided to protect her secretly in the dark. But the man didn’t appreciate her. She is dumb to still want to head back. However, when there’s a first time, there will be a second time. Do you think Amelia can stand it if the man returns to her side only to leave her again?”

Tiffany fell silent. Feeling conflicted, she furrowed her brows.

Kurt supported his head with one hand as he said in an overbearing tone, “Tiffany, you don’t want her to return to the country to get herself hurt again. Why don’t you advise her to stay instead of letting her suffer again?”

Tiffany peered at him with mixed emotions. He looked calm and unassuming usually. I have never expected him to be such an articulate person.

The storm of emotions in Tiffany’s heart turned into a sudden chuckle. “Kurt, do you think I’ve never talked to her about this before? You know Amelia well. Even though she looks soft on the outside, she is strong-willed. She and Oscar have been through so much, and it’s not something we outsiders could judge. If you really love her, you wouldn’t use that as a reason to hold her back. She is willing to get herself hurt because she loves him. It’s the same as you all ready to give up your life for her.”

Kurt sat up in bed, staring at Tiffany. Suddenly, he bowed before her. Tiffany was shocked by his action.

“Kurt, what are you doing?” Tiffany reached out, wanting to pull him up. However, Kurt refused to get up.

“Tiffany, if you agree to help me persuade Amelia to stay, I will do anything for you!”

“I don’t need you to do anything for me. I want you to get up now. If not, I’ll ask Amelia to come over and look at your pitiful face now.”

Kurt didn’t move.

Tiffany was angered by Kurt forcing her to do something against her will. “Do whatever you please. I can’t control your actions anyway. I was wrong about you. I didn’t expect you to be so manipulative in trying to win Amelia’s heart. I’m scared that you will even exploit and control Amelia one day.” Tiffany looked at Kurt with a complicated expression before leaving with disappointment.

Kurt watched as Tiffany left and slammed the bedroom door. He swallowed his saliva, feeling like that was bitterness in his throat.

I want Amelia to be happier. Why does everyone think that I’m being delusional? I’m sure I can give her a happy life. I’m more loyal compared to Oscar. It’s too bad no one noticed the sacrifices I made.

Kurt resorted to doing that because he feared Amelia would get hurt after returning to the country.

He let out a sigh. He knew that he had no way to stop Amelia from leaving now.

On the other side, Amelia had just put Tony to bed when she received Olivia’s call.

“Amelia, I miss Tony. You told me that you were returning to the country one month ago. I think you should be back now.” Olivia remarked through the phone in a displeased tone.

Amelia rubbed her head. She explained helplessly, “Mom, I’ll be back after some time. Kurt is hurt. I can’t abandon him and return to the country now.”

The other end of the line fell silent.

“Amelia, be honest with me. Are you in love with Kurt? He was with you when you left the country twice. Only a three-year-old child would believe it if you say nothing is going on between you and him. Maybe Oz is not as important as he used to be to you. That’s why you didn’t care that he was about to get married to Isabella, right?” Olivia’s voice rang through the phone after a long moment.

Amelia felt her heart stop as numbness overwhelmed her. With difficulty, she questioned, “Is he… going to marry Isabella?”

Olivia’s voice was frosty as she mocked, “Yea. I thought you were having so much fun abroad that you can’t find your way home!” However, the next moment, Olivia’s tone changed. Her voice softened, “Amelia, I thought you were still in love with Oz. That was why you chose to head overseas so that you could return to him again. I didn’t expect you to disappoint me. I can’t stop Oz and Isabella from becoming a couple because Oz protected her fairly well. Owen and I would never fall out with him over

a woman. That’s not what we want. If you are still in love with Oz, come back now. If not, I wouldn’t mind if he married Isabella. At least, Isabella really loves him from what we can see.”

Amelia’s mind was thrown into chaos by Olivia’s words. She took a deep breath before saying, “Mom, I’ll be back tomorrow.”

“I hope you’re a woman of your word. I’ll wait for your return.” Olivia hung up directly after saying that.

Amelia placed her phone back on the study table. With her eyes on Tony’s calm sleeping face, she leaned in and kissed his lips.

“Tony, I’m heading back home. I will make sure your daddy remembers our time together!” Amelia whispered.

Tony’s response was a series of soft snores in his deep slumber.

Amelia announced the news to Kurt and Tiffany the next day.

Tiffany didn’t look surprised, while Kurt’s expression was somber and complicated.
