Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 571

Chapter 571 She Finally Admitted It

After getting into the car, Amelia seemed to have something weighing on her mind as she leaned on the passenger seat.

Oscar glanced at her and lifted his hand to ruffle her hair. He asked, “What’s wrong? You can talk to me if you have something on your mind.”

She turned to look at him.

After hesitating for a moment, she briefly told him about what had happened to Eleanor in Saspiuburg.

“Do you want to help her?” Oscar asked bluntly after listening to her.

Amelia leaned against the seat, and she looked rather conflicted. After pondering for a long time, she replied, “I don’t know.”

“Why not?”

“Considering the circumstances, I’m just an outsider now. It’s often hard to get involved and judge others’ family affairs. I’m not a saint. It’s not like I have to respond to everyone who asks for help. I have my own family to take care of. Besides, that’s the Hutton family’s matter, so it’s difficult for me to intervene,” said Amelia.

Oscar stroked her hair and said, “I know someone in Saspiuburg. If you want to help, I can have someone sneak into the Hutton residence and find out how she’s doing.”

Amelia sighed softly and asked, “Isn’t it troublesome?”

“If it’s for you, then it’s not troublesome,” said Oscar.

Amelia lowered her gaze and pondered.

Oscar did not press her and simply drove the car quietly. The car was filled with a peaceful silence.

Just when they almost arrived at the neighborhood, Amelia raised her head and said, “Oscar, send someone to find out. In any case, we’ve known each other for a while, so I can’t just turn a blind eye.”

“All right.” Oscar agreed without hesitation.

Back at the apartment, Oscar kissed Amelia’s lips and said, “You play with Tony. I’ll go upstairs and have someone check on the Hutton family.”

Amelia smiled and said, “Thank you for everything, Oscar.”

He raised his hand to stroke her head before going upstairs.

Upon entering the study, Oscar called his subordinate who was far away in Saspiuburg.

After a brief chat and having someone check on Eleanor’s situation, he ended the call.

Oscar looked out of the window with a solemn expression. He was not particularly concerned about how Eleanor was doing, and he did not like the idea that Amelia kept in contact with the Hutton family because he thought Eleanor did not deserve to be called a mother when she did not even dare to acknowledge her own biological daughter.

Regardless of what hardships Eleanor faced, since she did not dare to acknowledge Amelia as her daughter, Oscar did not have a good impression of her.

When Oscar left the study and went downstairs, Amelia hurriedly came over and asked, “How was it, Oscar?”

He smiled and replied, “There’s no news yet, but don’t worry. In any case, they’re still husband and wife. I don’t think Mr. Hutton would be so cruel as to drive his wife crazy.”

Amelia mulled over it and thought it made sense.

They had gotten together in their youth and had been husband and wife for more than thirty years. If something really were to happen, it would have happened much earlier.

Amelia felt slightly at ease.

After the family of three finished eating, Oscar’s phone rang again.

He picked it up. “What’s it?”

The other party seemed to have said something, and Oscar’s expression darkened in an instant. He then replied, “All right. Watch them secretly for now. Let me think about it. I’ll tell you if I really want you to do it.”

Then, he said a few more words before hanging up.

Amelia looked at him and asked, “Oscar, was there any news?”

Oscar’s eyes darkened. After a long silence, he finally brought himself to break the news to her. “She’s still in the private psychiatric clinic. Her husband forced the psychiatrist to hypnotize her, but she has been resisting, so the hypnosis didn’t work. Things are more serious than we thought.”

Amelia’s eyes flashed with a trace of disbelief.

“She’s his wife. How could he do this to her?” Amelia clenched her fists tight slowly as she felt overwhelmed by a surge of emotions. “Oscar, can you have someone save her? I’m sorry. After getting to know her, I can’t just stand idly by and watch. I’ll live my whole life feeling guilty if I don’t do anything.”

Oscar looked straight at her, and their eyes met. He felt as if he had seen through the deepest corners of her mind and soul.

“Are you sure?” Oscar asked in a low voice.

Amelia nodded.

“All right. I’ll have someone rescue her tonight. Please bear in mind that you have nothing to do with her explicitly. The Hutton family has the right to sue us for kidnapping her,” Oscar reminded.

Amelia sighed and said, “Oscar, I really can’t be bothered to think about all that. If the Hutton family really wants to sue us, I have no choice but to face it. However, I have to do this, or my conscience will never let me live it down.”

Oscar chuckled. As expected of my wife. She’s kind, considerate, and knows the right thing to do. There’s so much goodness in her just waiting for me to discover.

“Don’t be silly! You’re my wife. No one can sue you,” Oscar said confidently. “Don’t worry. As long as you want to help her, I’ll stand by her side. I’ll also help her find the best lawyer for her to divorce her husband. She’s very similar to you, so I can’t really bear to be ruthless to her either.”

Feeling moved by his words, Amelia felt a surge of warmth in her. Oscar is doing all this for my sake.

At night, Oscar had one of his men rescue Eleanor. However, Eleanor was not in a particularly good state of mind because of all the stimulation she had suffered, and she started screaming when people touched her. The man who came to rescue her had no choice but to knock her out.

After placing her in a high-end apartment, the man called Oscar.

He gulped several times, carefully considered his words, and said, “Mr. Clinton, Mrs. Hutton’s situation doesn’t seem very good. It seems like the early symptom of psychosis. She’s making quite a big fuss over here. Do you want to come to Saspiuburg? The Hutton family is considered quite prestigious in Saspiuburg. If anything happens to her, I’m afraid we can’t afford to take responsibility.”

After a moment’s pause, he continued, “Mr. Clinton, I don’t mean to shirk responsibility, but I still have my men whom I need to take care of. Saspiuburg is still considered the Hutton family’s turf. We really can’t afford to offend them. Could you come to Saspiuburg quickly? We helped you save the woman, but you have to be the one to settle the rest of the matter.”
