Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 673

Chapter 673 Burning Her Capacity For Reason

Amelia Winters had Molly prepare extra portions to entertain the Hutton family. After the meal, Eleanor showed no signs of wanting to leave.

“Let’s go, Mom,” Amelia Hutton said pointedly. “You’ve bothered Amy long enough. I’m sure her husband wants his wife all to himself by now.”

Eleanor had no choice but to leave reluctantly.

The three Huttons got into the car after leaving the apartment. Sean glanced tentatively at Eleanor in the rearview mirror as he drove. “Dad is here in a hotel room, Mom. You should talk to him.”

The jovial smile Eleanor wore since dinner vanished instantly. “Stop the car,” she demanded with cold fury.

Sean pulled over. Just as Eleanor reached out to open the door, he said, “Do you really want to give up the entire Hutton family for a daughter who doesn’t want you, Mom? Amelia told me that Amy said she could be filial to you, but she could never get close to you.”

Eleanor’s hand froze in midair. The glum mist in her eyes almost resolved to physical tears.

 
 
 
 
 
 

“Did Lia really say that?” she asked softly as if the words pained her.

Amelia Hutton grabbed her mother’s hand. “Sean and I wouldn’t lie to you, Mom. Come home with us. It would be best if you didn’t intrude upon her life either. I promise I won’t provoke Oscar anymore if you do.”

Eleanor swiftly withdrew her hand.

 

“Tell your father that we are completely over and to stop trying to drive a wedge between Lia and me.” Eleanor opened the door to get out of the car, but her daughter held her tightly by the waist from behind.

“You’re not as cruel as that, Mom. Dad needs you. We all do.”

Eleanor was unmoved.

Sean turned to face his passengers. “Are you sure you want to leave, Mom? Once you step out, Amelia and I will never come for you again. I also found out that Dad’s mistress looks just like you. Amelia and I will be banished when she gives Dad a child in favor of his new family.”

Her son’s harsh words seemed to have worked as a stimulant as Eleanor slammed the car door shut after her eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation. “Drive,” she ordered solemnly.

Smiling triumphantly, Sean did as he was told.

Upon arriving at the hotel, Sean parked the car and called Benjamin. “Mom is here, Dad.”

“Send her up to Suite 2012.”

“Okay.”

“Dad is waiting for you in Suite 2012, Mom,” Sean said after hanging up. “Amelia and I won’t be joining you.”

Eleanor nodded in agreement. There was no need to involve the children in a matter between her and Benjamin.
