Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 677

Chapter 677 Too Terrifying

Amelia went to the bridal shop with Tiffany before having a meal together. It was only then they went separate ways.

After reaching home, Amelia saw Eleanor busying away. At that very moment, she realized that was how it was like to come home to family.

“Mom,” Amelia greeted as she lifted the bag in her hands.

“Lia, you’re back.” Eleanor put down the rag in her hands and walked over.

Amelia then handed the food she was holding onto to Eleanor. “I tried it and it tastes pretty good, so I bought you some. I’m not sure if you’ll like it or not.”

Eleanor took it looking all delighted. Even though the episode the night before had not been a pleasant one, she had left all the upset feelings behind.

Amelia then took a seat on the other side and watched her eat. Once Eleanor was done, Amelia mulled over her words and said, “Mom, Sean came looking for me.”

Eleanor’s hand halted midair. She then turned to Amelia.

It only took Amelia a glance at her before Amelia figured that Eleanor must have realized what had happened.

“Mom, Sean said that Mr. Hutton deliberately removed his rights to inherit the company. I’m sure he must be extremely upset about how his own father has removed his status as the heir despite being the Hutton family’s only son and had the son of another woman take over his role as the heir. I am thinking…” Amelia trailed off hesitantly. Amelia was in no place to intervene in the Hutton family’s matters. If she did it too often, others would assume that she had only acknowledged Eleanor as her mother because she wanted the Hutton family’s wealth.

Eleanor then put down her spoon and lowered her eyes to look at the leftover soup in the bowl. A beat later, she quietly said, “Lia, do you wish for me to return to the Hutton family as well?”

Amelia smiled at her. “Mom, that isn’t what I meant. I’m just conveying to you what Sean said. I’m guessing that this is Mr. Hutton’s way of forcing you back to Saspiuburg. I think Sean is more important to you than me.”

Eleanor bitter laughed before turning to cast a loving look at Amelia.

“Lia, the three of you are all my darlings. I’m trapped between a rock and a hard place. Perhaps, it was because you went missing since young, so I always feel a sense of guilt toward you. I hope that I can fix things, but my actions for that have been wrong, and I’ve unintentionally hurt Sean and Amelia.” She then sighed. “I’ve thought about many things while I’m here. You’ve grown up, so my actions in hopes of compensating the lost time might seem like a burden to you.”

Amelia stayed quiet.

Eleanor then rose to her feet and walked over to Amelia. Gently, she hugged Amelia and said, “Lia, I’m glad that I found you, and I’m glad that you called me Mom. However, at the end of the day, you’ve grown up. I can’t insist on staying here forever. I’m planning to head back to Saspiuburg in a few days regardless of what kind of ending your father and I will have in the end. I think this is better for the two of us. Still, I’ll come and visit you once in a while. I truly love you, and you’ll always be my beloved daughter.”

Amelia was touched by her words, for she knew that Eleanor truly loved her.

“Mom, you’re a good mother and you’re better than many other mothers. If you had found me earlier; perhaps, I wouldn’t have had so many regrets,” Amelia mumbled. “Still, I’m glad to reunite with you as a family before I grow old. At the very least, our reunion didn’t come far too late.”

Eleanor tightened her hug.

After the mother and daughter had a hearty chat, the two of them spent the next few days in peace. A few days later, Eleanor told Amelia that she wanted to go back to Saspiuburg.

Amelia was a little reluctant to part with her, but she still sincerely said, “Mom, have a safe journey. I will miss you.”

“I’ll miss you too.” Eleanor hugged her. “You have to take care of yourself now that I’m not around. Take your meals on time, and always remember to eat no matter how busy you are. Be nice to your in-laws too.”

“I got it.”

When the Huttons were ready to leave, Amelia sent them to the airport herself. Sean said to her, “Amy, once I am in charge of the company, I’ll establish the branch company at Tayhaven. That way, we can meet more often.”
