Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 572 Please Put Down The Knife

“Mrs. Hutton, you aren’t in a good mental state now. You’ll feel better after having some rest,” Amelia said in a soft voice. Her hand hovered stiffly in mid-air for a long time before she slowly placed it on Eleanor’s back.

Benjamin harbored a deep hatred toward Amelia Winters. He refused to acknowledge Amelia, who had been alone all these years, as his biological daughter. No matter what, Amelia did not wish to see Eleanor getting divorced at such an old age because of her. Amelia already had her own family, and she had been through more than twenty years of not being with her close ones, so she did not want to be selfish and be the cause of Eleanor losing the peaceful life she had with her family.

I’m already satisfied enough to know that my biological mother didn’t mean to abandon me. I’m not going to force the rest to go as my wish.

Eleanor’s hand that was holding Amelia froze as she slowly raised her head. She stared blankly at Amelia in front of her. Seemingly gathering her courage, she pursed her lips a few times before she finally asked in a hoarse voice, “Lia, are you still reluctant to acknowledge me as your mom?”

Amelia gave Eleanor a faint smile and comforted her, “Mrs. Hutton, I know that you were terrified yesterday, so it’s normal for you to mistake me for Amelia Hutton. However, I’m Amelia Winters, and my parents are still around. I’m really sorry.”

Eleanor gazed intently at her eldest daughter, who was close at hand yet so far away. She felt her heart wrenching, and her eyes were filled to the rim with tears.

“Lia, I lost you for more than twenty years. I understand if you don’t want to acknowledge me as your mother,” Eleanor sobbed.

Amelia was at a loss for what she should do.

She clumsily wiped Eleanor’s tears and said, “Don’t be like this, Mrs. Hutton. You’re not in good health now. Have a good rest first. Everything else can wait until you get better.”

Eleanor grabbed her hand and said sincerely, “Lia, I’ve been missing you for so many years. I didn’t dare to acknowledge you because I was afraid that your father would go after you. But now, I can’t stand it anymore. After yesterday, I almost couldn’t see you ever again. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to acknowledge me. I’ll be satisfied as long as you stay by my side.”

Feeling somewhat awkward, Amelia drew her hand back and said, “Mrs. Hutton, please calm down.”

Eleanor took a deep breath and tried her best to regain her composure.

She tried to look for a comb to tidy up her hair, but there was none.

“Lia, do you have a comb?”

Although Amelia did not understand what Eleanor needed a comb for, she took one out of her bag.

Eleanor tied her hair up and went into the bathroom to briefly wash her face.

Amelia saw that Eleanor had regained her composure and went straight to the point. “Mrs. Hutton, I heard from Amelia that things aren’t looking good between you and Mr. Hutton. Are you really planning to divorce?”
