Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 751 She Is Your Mom

After the memorial service for Eleanor was over, Oscar and Amelia Winters decided to go home. The day before

they left, Benjamin and Amelia Hutton came to visit them.

Amelia Winters found that strange. After all, she felt that she no longer had any connection with the Hutton family

after the passing of Eleanor. It was also pointless for Benjamin to come and look for her. After glancing at Amelia

Hutton, though, she had an idea why the two came here.

“Mr. Hutton, is there anything I can help you with?” Amelia Winters asked in a distant tone. Benjamin glanced inside

the room and replied with a solemn expression, “Can we talk inside?”

Amelia Winters turned sideways, gesturing at them to come in. Benjamin and Amelia Hutton walked into the room.

Just then, Oscar walked out of the bathroom. Upon shooting the two a glance, he asked indifferently, “Mr. Hutton,

what else do you guys want?”

Benjamin gazed at Oscar. He couldn’t help but compliment the latter in his heart. As expected from a capable man.

The aura he exudes is really something.

“Actually, I came here to discuss something with you guys today. Amelia says that she likes life in Tayhaven, so she’s

thinking of finding a job there. Both you and Lia are also living in Tayhaven, so can you help me take care of her?”

Benjamin put his hands behind his back as he came clean about his intention. “I plan to move there too after some

time. My wife had always wanted to go and stay with Lia in Tayhaven, so I want to fulfill her wish for her.”

“There’s no need for that. I think our two families don’t have to keep in contact anymore,” Oscar rejected without

hesitation.

A glint appeared in Benjamin’s eyes. Smiling, he said, “Could you give me a reason?

Oscar answered, “You’ve never wanted to recognize Amelia as your daughter since the beginning. Now that Mom

has passed away, there’s no need for you to continue treating her as your daughter, right? After all, she’s just a

bastard child to you. You’ve already done your best.”

Benjamin’s face turned ashen.

“Oscar, all humans make mistakes. In truth, Dad had accepted Amy a long time ago. He just found it hard to admit

because he’s too prideful. He has already set aside his pride to ask you guys for help. Are you and Amy really not

willing to forgive an elder who just lost his wife?” Amelia Hutton looked at Oscar, trying to convince him.

Oscar chuckled in response. “Mr. Hutton, I don’t know what you guys are planning. Either way, I don’t want my wife

to have any unnecessary interactions with you. She’ll be just fine with me.”

Benjamin’s hands trembled. He then shifted his gaze to Amelia Winters. “Lia, your mom asked me to take care of

you well before her passing. I know I was cold to you back then, but even a criminal has the chance to change for

the better. Are you truly unwilling to forgive me?”

Amelia Winters averted her gaze. She walked over to the wardrobe and packed her clothes, pretending to look

busy.

Benjamin stared at her intently. With a hoarse voice, he asked, “Lia, what must I do for you to forgive me? Do you

want me to get on my knees? All right. I’ll kneel for you now.”

Startled, Amelia Winters spun around and noticed that Benjamin was bending his body. A tinge of surprise flashed

across her eyes. She wanted to hurry over to stop Benjamin. Unexpectedly, Oscar held Benjamin before she could

do so. “Mr. Hutton, you’re an elder. Perhaps you don’t mind kneeling, but Amelia won’t be happy to see that.”

Benjamin tried to exert more force. Unfortunately, he was old, so Oscar was way stronger than him. Left with no

choice, he could only give up.

“Lia, can you give me a chance to make it up to you as a father?” Benjamin tried to play the family card.

A complicated range of emotions flickered across Amelia Winters’ eyes.

“Amy, Dad is being repentant. Do you really want to see an elder who has just lost his wife beg you like this? Do you

have to be so cruel?” Amelia Hutton was infuriated.

Amelia Winters scrutinized Benjamin and Amelia Hutton. For a moment, she couldn’t tell what the two were

thinking. She was sure that they had some ulterior motives because it was strange for them to be so proactive

suddenly. She wouldn’t mind if she were alone. However, she was connected to the entire Clinton family now.

Recently, things had been rough for the Clintons as many things had happened in their company. Although the

father-daughter duo wouldn’t be able to affect the foundation of the company, the same could not be said for the

mental state of the Clintons. It was already hard enough for them to solve the company’s problems, so it would only

add fuel to the fire if the Huttons were to kick up trouble. Hence, Amelia Winters couldn’t help but put her guard up

upon hearing what Benjamin and Amelia Hutton said.

She could accept Eleanor as her family unconditionally. Nevertheless, she had to treat the rest of the people in the

Hutton family extra cautiously. It was undeniable that she was also part of the Hutton family. However, she had

been missing for more than twenty years, so she almost had no feelings for those in that family. To her, they were

just slightly more familiar than strangers. Thus, Amelia Winters had no choice but to be wary of them.

One mustn’t bear ill intentions, but one mustn’t let their guard down either. Amelia Winters wasn’t some innocent

young lady. If she let her guard down, she might lose her family, which she had poured much time and effort into

building. Besides, the Clinton family’s business might even be in danger because of her.

Amelia Winters had never wanted to hurt anyone, but that didn’t mean that others were the same.

Her mind was in utter chaos at that moment as she wracked her brain. Suddenly, she laughed. “Mr. Hutton, Amelia,

I think you guys have misunderstood something. I don’t mind you guys moving to Tayhaven. I’ll even try to help if

you need anything. However, I wonder why you two have to keep saying that I’m cruel and unfilial.”

Amelia Hutton and Benjamin were stunned.

“Amy, what do you mean?”

“Nothing much. I just want to say that I don’t need the Hutton family to make it up to me. By the way, I don’t want

any of the inheritance. You guys don’t have to worry about that.”

“Stop blabbering nonsense. As for the inheritance, I’ve written the will according to your mother’s wishes before

she died. I even asked the lawyer to verify it. You have a share in the inheritance. I don’t care what you think of us,

but I really want to make it up to you. I’m being sincere,” Benjamin said with a straight face.

Amelia Winters was stunned.

“I’ve said too much today. If you don’t want me to stay in Tayhaven in the future, I won’t go. Regardless, you’ll

receive a share in our family’s inheritance after I leave this world. As for your sister, I hope you can find her a job if

she really wants to go to Tayhaven. After all, it’s rare for her to have such determination.”

“I’ll try.”

After sending off Benjamin and Amelia Hutton, Amelia Winters said, “Oscar, I wonder what they have up their

sleeves. What do you think?”

“Don’t think too much. Let’s just go with the flow,” Oscar replied.

Amelia Winters nodded.

As soon as the two left the room, Amelia Hutton’s expression turned grim. “Dad, what exactly are you trying to do?

Don’t you use to hate Amy a lot? Why are you now giving her a share of the inheritance?”

“This is your mother’s last wish. She suffered a lot because of me. I can’t let her leave the world with worries.”

Benjamin shot her a glance.

“But then, it’s evident that she doesn’t want to recognize you as her father. Sean and I should be the ones who

inherit everything after you pass away. Are you sure you want an outsider to interfere in this?”

“Shut up.”

“Dad, you’ve changed. You used to be firm and decisive. Not only did your heart become softer now, but you’re

also not thinking straight anymore. You’ll definitely lose your mind and give out all the assets of the Hutton family to

the Clinton family one day!”

“Enough!” Benjamin glared at Amelia. “Don’t forget that she’s your sister. She carries my blood in her body too.

Even though she has married into another family now, it’s still reasonable for her to receive part of the inheritance

of our family. Amelia, you should not be that short-sighted and petty.”

“Dad, I see that you’ve truly gone senile!” Amelia was fuming with rage.

Having said that, she ran away without hesitation.

Benjamin narrowed his hazy eyes, which were laced with unreadable emotions. Then, he let out a sigh.

The sudden passing of Eleanor had changed him. Because of that, his sharp edges had disappeared, and he was no

longer as domineering and decisive as before.

“Dad.” Sean walked over to him.

Glancing at Sean, Benjamin replied, “You’re here.”

“Dad, did you go and see Amy?” Sean asked.

“Your younger sister wants to find a job in Tayhaven, so I went to see Amy and asked her to take care of your

sister.”

“Dad, you know that Amelia just wants to stir up trouble. Why are you enabling her?”

“Just let her do as she wants. Your mom is gone now, so I find it meaningless to stay in the world like this. Perhaps

I’ll feel less bored if I let Amelia mess around for a little.” There was a tinge of sheer madness in Benjamin’s eyes.

Soon, an evil smile crept on his face. “Perhaps I will forget the fact that your mom is gone, too. Actually, I’ve been

wondering something. If your mom hadn’t reunited with Amelia Winters, maybe she wouldn’t have died so early.

She’s a mentally strong woman, so she would have been reluctant to leave the world without finding her lost

daughter. Sadly, she’s gone now. I wonder if she feels cold now. Should I send someone to keep her company

there? She likes Amelia Winters a lot. So, will your mom appear in my dream if anything happens to Amelia

Winters?”

Sean felt a chill run down his spine. He stared into Benjamin’s eyes with a conflicted expression.

After pondering for a second, he said, “Dad, Mom’s gone, and she’s not coming back. We, who are still alive, should

carry on with our lives well. Please don’t be like that.”

Benjamin narrowed his eyes. “No. I think your mom will come and see me in my dream. As long as something

happens to Amelia Winters, your mom will definitely feel upset. Then, she’ll visit me in a dream and ask me to

protect her favorite daughter. In that case, I’ll get to see her again, right?”

Sean had a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach. “Dad, what are you going to do?”

“Don’t worry, Sean. I’m just going to make her stay here longer. Your mom will definitely appear in my dream if that

woman gets injured.”

“Calm down, Dad. Oscar is not someone you can afford to mess with.”

Suddenly, Benjamin let out a chuckle. Lifting his hand, he patted Sean’s shoulder. “Sean, I was just kidding with you!

Of course, I’m not willing to make your mom worry! She likes Amelia Winters a lot, so I’ll take care of Amelia well

for her.”

Sean was perplexed.

“All right. You just have to focus on managing the company properly. I’m going to talk to your mom’s photo.” Having

said that, Benjamin walked away.

Sean stared at his father’s back, which cut a despondent sight. He had a feeling that his father had gone insane.

Sean kept an eye on Benjamin cautiously for the rest of the day. Finally, he felt relieved when Amelia and Oscar

boarded the plane. Fortunately, Benjamin didn’t do anything overboard, or the entire Hutton family would have to

suffer if Benjamin pissed Oscar off. If that happened, an intense battle between the corporates might break out

again.

“What’s the matter? Are you really worried that I’ll target her?” Benjamin laughed.

Sean shook his head in response. “No. I’m just afraid that you can’t move on from Mom’s death and might mistake

Amy for Mom.”

Benjamin narrowed his eyes, responding nonchalantly, “Yes, she looks so much like your mom. What if she’s your

mom’s incarnation? What do you think?”

The veins on Sean’s forehead throbbed. He was afraid that Benjamin would lose his mind again. “Dad…”

“That’s impossible. Your mom is so much prettier than her, after all,” Benjamin interrupted him.

Sean was so confused that he didn’t know what to say.

“No. It’s very likely your mom turned into her when she found out that her days were numbered. I’ll go and visit

your mom in Tayhaven again after some time. Thank you for reminding me about that, Sean.” After saying that,

Benjamin walked away in excitement.

It was then Sean finally realized how serious the situation was.

Immediately, he followed Benjamin. “Dad, she’s not Mom. Mom is already dead. Wake up!”

Nevertheless, Benjamin paid him no mind.
