Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 569

Chapter 569 I Will Take Care Of Her

“The paternity test results came out, Dad. Her DNA matches with yours up to ninety-nine percent, which isn’t possible if she isn’t related to you by blood. Why won’t you just admit it?”

When Benjamin heard that, an embarrassed look flashed across his face, and the vicious glare in his eyes intensified.

“Shut up! She’s not my daughter. I only have a son and a daughter. That girl is a b*stard’s child. I’ll kick you out of the Hutton family if you mention her again,” Benjamin said furiously.

Ivan could find no words to respond to him.

“Get out. You may speak to me after you think this through.” Benjamin waved his hand without waiting for Ivan to say anything else, gesturing him to leave.

Ivan stared at him intently, then turned and left.

He thought Benjamin was being unreasonable and pathetic at the same time. That girl was his daughter, yet he insisted she was a product of his wife’s disloyalty and chose to drown himself in his delusions. They were a loving couple, but Benjamin destroyed their relationship.

Ivan could not understand why Benjamin was being so stubborn, nor did he know what happened back then which resulted in Benjamin refusing to acknowledge his daughter and even thinking that his wife had cheated on him.

In truth, Ivan thought Benjamin was quite pitiful, but the latter only had himself to blame for it. If he were not so obstinate and suspicious, he would not have to face a divorce now.

It was bound to be an unpleasant night for the Hutton family.

Amelia woke up surprisingly early the next day and saw Eleanor dragging an enormous suitcase out of the door. Shocked, Amelia was instantly wide awake.

“Where are you going, Mom?” Amelia asked anxiously as she held the suitcase in Eleanor’s hand.

Eleanor turned around, looked at Amelia, and informed, “I’m going to Tayhaven to look for Lia. I’ve owed her too much, and I want to be by her side for the remaining days.”

Anger flashed across Amelia’s eyes.

“All you ever think about is that Amelia Winters. Have you forgotten everyone else? I am your daughter, too. Ivan and I truly care about you. I’m starting to think you’ve gone mad to love her so much.” Amelia finally snapped.

Eleanor only stared at her calmly.

Amelia waved her arms, losing control of her temper. “Calm down, Mom. Let’s talk this through. Don’t break the peace in our family, okay?”

“Your father and I have nothing left to talk about. Divorce is inevitable. I appointed my lawyer to discuss the divorce with him last night. I don’t want any assets from the Hutton family, but I won’t cut ties with you and Ivan. Even if we’re divorced, you two are still my son and daughter.” Eleanor’s mouth twitched as if she was determined to divorce.

Amelia stared at her in disbelief.

With reddened eyes, she bit her lip so hard teeth marks appeared on her lip.

“Stop biting your lip. You’re almost bleeding,” Eleanor said nervously.

Amelia twitched her lips, but she still loosened her bite.

“You still care about me, Mom?” Amelia scoffed, “I thought you only had Amelia Winters in mind.”

A hint of pain surfaced in Eleanor’s eyes.

“You’re still my daughter, Amelia. Both you and Lia are my precious daughters,” Eleanor explained.

“If you truly see me as your daughter, you wouldn’t have divorced Dad so quickly. I think Amelia Winters cast a spell on you, making you abandon this family,” Amelia Hutton retorted emotionally.

Eleanor was silent.

Then, Amelia snatched her suitcase and threw it aside.

“Don’t go, Mom. If you leave, I’ll end my life. I’ll take a knife, slit my wrist, and watch myself bleed to death.”

“Quit that nonsense, Amelia.”

“It’s not nonsense. If you dare give up on this family, I would harm myself. After all, you don’t care about me, and I assume you wouldn’t care what I do,” Amelia threatened like she had nothing to lose.

Eleanor’s face fell, and her eyes turned red.

Letting out a tired sigh, she persuaded, “You’re already in your twenties and are even old enough to get married. Don’t be so stubborn, Amelia.”

Amelia sobbed quietly, tears rolling down her cheeks as bitterness filled her heart.

“I regret bringing you to meet Amelia Winters, Mom. If you hadn’t reunited with her, the Hutton family wouldn’t have to face so many hardships,” Amelia Hutton said as she wept.

Eleanor said nothing in response.

“Are you really leaving?” Benjamin’s voice sounded from upstairs.

Eleanor looked up and saw Benjamin standing there arrogantly with his arms crossed. She instantly turned cold and expressionless.

“I’ve requested a lawyer to prepare the divorce papers, and he’ll talk to you about the divorce personally. Don’t worry, I’m not divorcing for your money, but I have one condition. After the divorce, I never want to see you again,” Eleanor said icily.

Benjamin’s eyes darkened as his face turned utterly vicious.
