Too Much to Bear, My Love

Arriving at the hospital, Amelia went to the doctor she was acquainted with to have an ultrasound scan. After the checkup, the doctor noted, “Mrs. Clinton, you’re very healthy, and the baby is developing well.”

“Thank you, Dr. Leonard. All I want is for my child to be born safely. No matter if my baby’s a girl or a boy, I’ll give you a gift as thanks.” Amelia chuckled as she tidied up her clothes.

Maria Leonard was a mild-mannered, middle-aged woman. She smiled back at her and said, “Mrs. Clinton, it’s all right. It’s my job as a doctor to do ultrasound scans for you. Moreover, you were the one who helped my husband with the plot of land back then. We haven’t even thanked you for that, so how can we still accept your gift?”

Climbing down from the bed, Amelia responded, “Dr. Leonard, that’s where you’re wrong. I was helping with Mr. Freeman’s land as a friend. If my baby comes to this world safe and sound, you’ll be our savior. You have to accept the gift.”

Unable to reject her, Maria relented, “Mrs. Clinton, you’re generous. It’s my pleasure to have met a wealthy woman like you.”

Sending her out, Maria reminded, “Mrs. Clinton, if you feel unwell, remember to call me.”
