Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 904 Finding Out The Truth

The moment Amelia stepped out of the hospital, she received a call from Benjamin. She stared at the phone screen in a daze. If it wasn’t for this call, I might have forgotten the existence of the Hutton family. I haven’t been in contact with them for a year or two. It feels kind of strange to talk to them.

Snapping out of the trance, she eventually answered the phone. “Hello.” Hearing Benjamin’s reply from the other end of the line, Amelia hesitated and nodded.

After hanging up the phone, she got into the car and asked Jolin to drop her off at a nearby café. When they arrived at the destination, Amelia unbuckled her seatbelt and said, “I’m going to meet with the Hutton family. Wait for me outside.”

Jolin immediately became wary and grabbed Amelia’s hand. “Mrs. Clinton, I’ll go with you.” Seeing the grim expression on Jolin’s face, Amelia knew that the former would feel upset if she wasn’t allowed to go inside, so she agreed to it. Nevertheless, she told Jolin to sit in a hidden spot to avoid awkwardness in case the Hutton family discovered her.

After entering the café, Amelia Winters immediately saw Benjamin and Amelia Hutton. The latter had become more feminine over the years. Compared to her previous innocent appearance, she looked foxier and more attractive with her wavy hair.

For some reason, Amelia Winters felt the way Amelia Hutton had dressed up looked familiar. Standing up from the chair, Benjamin called out, “Lia, over here.”

Amelia Winters walked toward them before sitting down. “Mr. Hutton, Ms. Hutton, it’s been a while. It looks like you have been doing well,” she greeted them politely. Amelia Hutton merely responded with a smile.

On the other hand, Benjamin looked at Amelia Winters with an unreadable expression, a hint of indescribable yearning flashing in his eyes.

“Amy, we’re all family. Even though we haven’t been in contact for more than a year, it doesn’t change the fact that we’re related by blood. You don’t have to be so courteous. Mom isn’t here anymore, but the two of us are still your dad and sister, right?” Amelia Hutton pushed the cup of coffee in front of her to Amelia Winters and added, “Amy, this is the coffee I ordered for you. Try it. The coffee here is quite good.”

Amelia Winters glanced at the coffee with no intention of touching the cup.

“Take a sip, Amy. Are you turning down the drink I ordered for you?” asked Amelia Hutton.

Instead of drinking the coffee, Amelia Winters eyed her warily.

Realizing that she was being too eager, Amelia Hutton primped her hair and smiled charmingly. “Amy, I didn’t mean anything by that. I simply want to mend our relationship. Also, I’m here to give you an invitation to my wedding. I’m engaged to the eldest son of the Jefferson family from Saspiuburg. We’re getting married in three months.”

A hint of surprise flashed across Amelia Winters’ eyes.

“Amy, don’t tell me you thought I’m still pining for Oscar, do you?” Amelia Hutton asked with a smile and continued, “Yes, I used to harbor feelings for him. But there’s always a limit when it comes to crushes. I met my true love a year ago. Now, I want you to attend my wedding as my sister.”

Amelia Winters smiled at her explanation. “Congratulations, I will be there.”

“Thank you, Amy. Since there’s no wine here, let’s have a toast to my wedding with a cup of coffee instead.” With that, Amelia Hutton raised her cup.

Amelia Winters hesitated before picking up the cup and clinking it with her sister. After taking a sip, she sat down and wiped her mouth with a clean napkin. She discreetly wiped off all traces of the drink.

I can’t afford to let my guard down. I don’t know whether Amelia is telling the truth or not. So, it’s better to be safe than sorry.

It was unclear whether Amelia Hutton saw Amelia Winters’ movement as the former merely smiled in response.

Then, she took out a wedding invitation from her bag and pushed it in front of Amelia Winters.

Still wearing a smile, Amelia Hutton uttered, “Amy, this is my wedding invitation. Remember to come to Saspiuburg with Oscar for the ceremony.”

Picking up the invitation, Amelia Winters saw the picture of Amelia Hutton leaning intimately against a handsome-looking man. Upon closer inspection, the man seemed to resemble Oscar.

“You two look like a perfect match for each other,” remarked Amelia Winters.

At her comment, Amelia Hutton beamed like a happy bride-to-be.

The two sisters chatted for nearly half an hour before Amelia Hutton said that she and Benjamin were planning to meet with other friends. Therefore, they had to cut their conversation short.
