Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 512 Pleading At Their House Was Useless

The next day, Eleanor went to visit Amelia Winters. When she saw Oscar again, a hint of awkwardness and guilt arose in her heart inevitably. She kept feeling that the young man before her could see through her. The way he was scrutinizing her made her feel as though she was utterly exposed under his gaze, which was an extremely uncomfortable sensation.

Amelia Winters gently pulled Eleanor to the couch and let her sit down. Noticing that the latter’s face seemed pale, she asked worriedly, “Mrs. Hutton, are you feeling unwell? You don’t look so good.”

Out of concern, she got up to make a cup of jasmine tea for Eleanor. While handing the cup of tea to her, she exhorted, “Have some warm tea, Mrs. Hutton.”

Eleanor finally looked better as she held the cup in her hands.

“Lia, I have a question for you. Do you feel pressured whenever I treat you well?” she asked after moments of hesitation.

Amelia Winters was stunned before she chuckled and replied in confusion, “Mrs. Hutton, why are you asking such a question?”

Eleanor sneaked a glance at Oscar, forced a smile, and said, “I’m not your relative nor your friend, so I’m worried that you would feel pressured that I’m caring about you too much.”

The younger woman chuckled again. “Mrs. Hutton, I grew up without having a close relationship with my parents. Hence, I never understood how to interact with my elders. To be honest, I felt overwhelmed by your cordiality in the beginning, but I was happy at the same time. Your care and concern made me have the illusion that you are my mother, but after thinking about it, I denied such a thought because there’s no way you’re my mom,” she then said ambiguously.

In truth, she had thought of reuniting with her because Eleanor treated her so well. However, Amelia Winters felt that the older woman had no intention of recognizing her as her daughter. All she could do was sound her out and gauge her thoughts step by step. While she could not figure out Eleanor’s true attitude toward the matter, she also failed to comprehend why the latter treated her so well yet did not plan on accepting her as her daughter.

That had her wonder if she had the wrong idea all along, and the truth was that she was not related to Eleanor.

Eleanor’s heart throbbed with sorrow while her mouth twitched. She wanted to say something but held her tongue at the end.

“It’d be a blessing to have such a thoughtful daughter like you,” was all that fell from her lips as she wore a doleful smile.

Amelia Winters smiled and chose not to continue the conversation.
