Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 747 Would Not Be Cured

When Amelia woke up, she subconsciously rubbed her stomach while looking at Oscar with a devasted expression.

“Is our baby really gone?”

Oscar caressed her head. “Don’t take it to heart. We still have Tony. You can get pregnant again after your body has

fully recovered. By then, having three or four kids will not be an issue. Right now, you should focus on

recuperating.”

Tears started pouring out of Amelia’s eyes. She knew that she had lost her baby due to her carelessness. She had

been so busy during this time that she hadn’t even noticed her period hadn’t come. The woman didn’t expect it was

due to this negligence that caused her to have a miscarriage. It was truly unacceptable for her.

“I’m sorry, Oscar. I didn’t know about it, and I didn’t want this to happen either. I can’t understand why our baby is

gone.” Amelia broke down into sobs.

After the miscarriage, Amelia felt more guilty compared to anyone else. Just like that, she and her unborn child only

had a brief encounter.

Oscar sat on the side of the bed. He cautiously embraced his wife and whispered, “Be good now. Everything will be

fine. Although we lost the baby, we can have another one. It’s also my fault for not noticing that you didn’t have

your period. Otherwise, I would have reminded you. I was too inattentive as a husband. Let’s stop crying. You just

had a miscarriage, and your body is weak. Crying too much is also not good for you.”

Amelia buried herself in his arms as she wept.

Oscar cast a glance at Tony, who then walked over obediently. The little boy said, “Mommy, you’ve still got me. I’ll

stay beside you forever. Maybe my baby brother or sister went away first because we were not meant to meet. I

think when he or she feels that the time has arrived, my baby brother or sister will definitely come back again.

Don’t be sad.”

Amelia got up from Oscar’s embrace and wiped away her tears. She raised her hand to stroke her son’s head.

“Tony, I’m all right. Did I scare you?”

Tony shook his head. “I’m fine. Mommy, don’t be upset anymore. Big Meanie and I will always stay by your side. In

the future, there will also be my brothers and sisters who will keep you company. Then you won’t be lonely.”

Amelia laughed through her tears. She finally wasn’t as heartbroken as before.

“Where’s Dad, Mom, and Tiff? The news must have frightened them.” Amelia turned around and looked at Oscar.

“I was worried they might disturb you, so I told them to return home first. They will probably come back again

later.”

“It’s better this way,” Amelia replied. “Oscar, please don’t tell my mother about this. Her current situation isn’t

optimistic. If she knew I miscarried because I was too exhausted from taking care of her, she would certainly feel

upset. That will not do her illness any good.”

There was a dark and unfathomable look in Oscar’s eyes.

“Oscar, this matter really has nothing to do with my mother. The miscarriage happened due to my negligence.

Don’t blame it on her.” Perhaps she had noticed Oscar’s mood change as Amelia tried explaining.

Oscar took a deep breath and caressed her cheek. “I don’t blame her. If anything, I blame the fact that the child

was not destined to be with us.”

Amelia still felt a great wave of guilt wash over her.

“Don’t overthink it, Amelia. You only need to take care of your health,” Oscar consoled her.

Amelia bobbed her head.

Olivia and Owen brought a lot of supplements when they visited Amelia later that night. Amelia thought of getting

out of bed, but her mother-in-law swiftly held and supported her body. “Don’t get down from the bed. You just had a

miscarriage, so your health is still very frail.”

While leaning on the bed, Amelia apologized, “I’m sorry, Mom. I didn’t manage to keep the baby.”

“It’s not your fault. Your mother is seriously ill, and there’s no way you wouldn’t take care of her. Although you hired

a caretaker, you’ve always preferred to do everything yourself. Losing the baby is also normal. If it’s gone, it’s

gone. Don’t think about it too much. We have brought some food for you to eat. They will help nourish your body,”

Olivia commented.

Afterward, Olivia opened the lid, and a wonderful aroma filled their nostrils. “I specially prepared this nourishing

mushroom soup, which is delicious yet light enough for you to consume.”

Warmth spread through Amelia’s heart. She had one serving of Olivia’s soup before responding, “Mom, it’s

delicious. Thanks for not blaming me and for even preparing something for me to eat.”

“Don’t mention it since we are a family. Letting your body recover after a miscarriage is the most important thing

you should do. As for your mother, I’ll arrange for people to look after her. Don’t refuse my help. I’m doing it for

Tony’s sake. I also don’t want my grandson to get worried sick about you,” Olivia insisted in an unyielding tone.

Amelia gave it some thought before nodding in agreement.

The young woman had lost her child because she was so busy that she collapsed due to exhaustion. Hence, it made

sense why Olivia would make such arrangements.

Knowing that Oscar had gone to visit Eleanor, Olivia opened up to her daughter-in-law. “Amelia, I don’t blame you.

It’s just that you should put your health as the top priority in the future. Currently, you only have Tony. If possible, I

hope you can give birth to another one or two children to keep him company. Being the only child would mean he

would be lonely. Since our family has a huge family business, it will also be good if someone is there to assist Tony

later on in life.”

Amelia nodded in response. “I understand, Mom. I’ll try to recuperate quickly.”

“It would be best if my words sank in. Then, that would save me some time from having to nag at you,” said Olivia.

“I know you’re doing it for my own good,” Amelia responded.

Following that, the two women faced each other silently. They weren’t as close as they used to be, which made

sense. After all, it would be impossible to regain the intimacy they used to have after Amelia secretly took Tony

away and left two years ago.

When Oscar came back with Tony, Olivia stood up to leave.

“Your dad and I are going home first.”

“Mom, Dad, why don’t you stay for a little longer?” Oscar asked.

Olivia hugged her grandson while speaking. “That won’t be necessary. Your dad and I have something else to do.

Tony should return with us. It’s not good for him to keep staying here. There are quite a lot of evil spirits or

something in the hospital. Since Tony is still young, it’s easy for him to bump into one of those.”

Oscar only glanced at his son and asked, “Tony, do you want to return home with your grandparents?”

Tony looked at Olivia and spoke. “Grandma, I want to stay with Mommy. I promise not to make a fuss.”

“Are you sure you don’t want to go home with me?” Olivia inquired.

Tony shook his head.

“All right. Be a good boy and listen to your parents. Give me a call if you want to go home. I’ll ask someone to fetch

you.” Olivia permitted him to stay.

Tony responded with a nod.

Once Olivia and Owen left, Amelia asked, “Oscar, how’s my mother?”

“Not too good. She’s still unconscious,” Oscar replied while furrowing his brows.

“What did the doctor say?” Amelia sounded anxious.

“James and his mentor are trying their best to develop a drug to prevent her condition from deteriorating. You need

to trust in their medical skills. Moreover, the Hutton family has hired a team of neurologists. Since they are

researching together, they are bound to come up with a solution.” Oscar tried to reassure his wife.

The deep frown on Amelia’s face remained for a long time.

“Oscar, can I visit my mother?” Amelia requested.

“No. You just had a miscarriage, and your body is too weak. What if you catch a cold? That might leave lingering

after-effects we don’t want. Don’t make me worry, all right?” Oscar’s firm tone carried a tinge of pleading.

Amelia met his worried gaze and relented. “Fine. I’ll visit her a few days later.”

Oscar petted her head. “Amelia, there are times I wish you’d completely cut off ties with the members of the

Hutton family. They only acknowledged you at a later stage in life. I thought you wouldn’t develop deep feelings for

them and didn’t expect you’d be willing to do so much for your mom.”

“She’s still my mother,” replied Amelia.

Oscar let out a sigh and didn’t bother to speak further.

Tiffany, together with Derrick, came to visit. A smile graced Amelia’s face. “Tiff, are you feeling better?”

“Don’t worry about me. On the contrary, it wasn’t easy for you to get pregnant, yet you had a miscarriage. You’re

too negligent,” Tiffany chided.

“I didn’t do that on purpose, Tiff. Even you are reprimanding me…”

Tiffany heaved a sigh and sat on the bed. Oscar told Derrick to exit the room, leaving the two women in the ward to

continue their conversation.

“Babe, did Mr. Clinton blame you?” Tiffany was curious.

Amelia shook her head. “He didn’t. Instead, he even comforted me. Now that I think about it, I feel like I’ve let him

down.”

“Don’t ponder over it anymore. Everyone should put this matter aside. We really are best friends, aren’t we? I just

had a uterine septum surgery, and now you had a miscarriage. Are you worried that I’ll be all alone and specifically

came here to keep me accompany?” Tiffany joked.

Amelia smiled wryly at her friend’s remarks.

However, if possible, she would never want to experience the feeling of losing her biological child. Her unborn baby

had turned into a puddle of blood before she could even realize the fetus’ existence.

During the car accident back then, she gave birth to Tony despite being at a critical juncture. However, her second

child passed away just like that.

She could only blame fate for not bringing them together.

“Babe, what’s on your mind?” Tiffany spoke.

“Nothing. I just thought that the child left me too soon.”

“Don’t brood over it. Even though your child has passed away, you’ll have another baby next time,” Tiffany

encouraged her friend.

Amelia nodded and didn’t add on.

Half a month flew by in the blink of an eye. Amelia was still recovering in the ward when she received news that

Eleanor had been admitted into the intensive care unit. During the past two weeks, her mother had never once

regained consciousness, so she hadn’t learned about her daughter’s miscarriage either.

When she heard the news, Amelia’s hand holding a cup started trembling, and the cup slipped from her nerveless

fingers to land on the floor with a loud crash.

She immediately dashed out of the ward and hurried to the intensive care unit. Oscar also quickly followed her

from behind to protect his wife.

“When did this happen?” Amelia asked Benjamin.

“She was admitted to the intensive care unit yesterday. The doctor said that her condition is not promising and that

she may pass on soon,” Benjamin muttered in a gloomy voice. Gray hairs were springing up from his sideburns. The

man had aged a lot in less than a month.

Amelia fixed her gaze on Eleanor, lying inside the intensive care unit with medical equipment attached to her body.

Her mother had promised not long ago she would help her take care of her child. Yet, here Eleanor was now, in a

coma while staying in the intensive care unit. The twist of events had happened so abruptly that Amelia couldn’t

accept it.

“James clearly stated that she still had three more months to live, but not even a month has passed. How could it

be…” Amelia mumbled.

Benjamin chuckled bitterly. “It must be because of all the wicked deeds I committed. Hence, the tribulation fell on

her. The doctor told me there’s no hope for her to be cured unless there was a miracle. Despite spending most of

our life at odds with each other, I didn’t expect the outcome to be this.”

Amelia pursed her lips in silence.

“Lia, your mother’s only wish is nothing more than for me to acknowledge and treat you well. I understand you

don’t want to recognize me as your father, but I do hope you can address me as one. If anything happens to

Eleanor, I don’t want her to leave the world with any regrets,” Benjamin pleaded while gazing at Amelia with cloudy

eyes.

Amelia stared at the man with a conflicted expression. Eventually, she nodded in agreement.
