Too Much To Bear, My Love Chapter 605


    Chapter 605 Whole Family In Tayhaven


    Despite the awkwardness, a glimpse of warmth shed across the depths of Amelia’s heart. At least


    my biological mother truly loves me.


    “Mrs. Hutton, you don’t look so well. Why don’t you take a rest first, and we’ll discuss it again after you


    wake up?” Amelia suggested.


    Disappointment shed across Eleanor’s eyes. “Are you still unwilling to acknowledge me as your


    mom, Lia?”


    Amelia fell silent at her question, not knowing how to exin.


    “Mrs. Hutton, it’s not that Amelia refuses to ept you, your husband is the one refusing to ept her!


    Do you think she can live a peaceful life if she does acknowledge you as her mom?”


    Eleanor didn’t respond, for she knew it was the truth.


    “Mrs. Hutton, I hope you don’t me me for speaking so bluntly. Amelia isn’t suitable for a life with the


    Hutton family. The main obstacle is your husband’s attitude,” Tiffany said straightforwardly.


    Eleanor lowered her gaze at the frank remark.


    Amelia nced at Tiffany before she told Eleanor. “Mrs. Hutton, you must be tired. Why don’t you head


    upstairs and take a nap? Let’s talk after you’re well-rested.”


    Eleanor nodded hesitantly.


    After Eleanor went upstairs, Tiffany shrugged as she sat on the couch. With her chin resting on her


    hand, she questioned, “What are we going to do now, Babe? I see Mr. and Mrs. Hutton had sunk their


    ws into you.”


    Amelia was teasing Tony in her arms when she suggested, “Are you tired, Tony? Let’s bring you


    upstairs for a nap, okay?”


    “Okay,” Tony answered with a yawn as he rubbed his eye with his fist.


    Amelia carried Tony up the stairs and into the room. She gentlyid him down on the bed and coaxed


    him to sleep.


    After Tony had fallen asleep, only then did Amelia answer Tiffany. “Tiff, let’s go with the tide. I’m not


    scared of trouble, but I don’t want to get involved with the Hutton family’s affairs.”


    “Are you going to keep Mrs. Hutton around you?”


    “Do you have any better ideas?”


    Tiffany went silent at her question.


    “See. Even you can’te up with a good idea. What else can I do?”


    “Should we give Mr. Hutton a call and ask him to take his wife back?”


    “She’s only human. She can just take another flight back.”


    Tiffany fell silent again.


    A soft smile yed on Amelia’s lips as she assured Tiffany, “Tiff, let’s just go with the flow. Her


    existence doesn’t repulse me.”


    Tiffany shrugged, agreeing with Amelia’s suggestion.


    Eleanor’s departure had triggered a bomb in the Hutton residence.


    Amelia Hutton stopped her nervous pacing when she saw the maids rushing to the living room. “Did


    you find my Mom?”


    “We’ve searched everywhere, Ms. Hutton, but we still couldn’t find her.”


    “Well, continue searching then! What are you standing there for?”


    “Yes, Ms. Hutton.”


    The moment Sean stepped into the house, Amelia raced to him as though he was her lifeline. “Sean,


    how was it? Did you find her?”


    “Mom had taken the eight o’clock flight to Tayhaven this morning,” Sean answered with a solemn look.


    Stunned by his response, Amelia merely stared at him in disbelief.

    “No, you must be wrong, Sean. Mom told us she would never go to Tayhaven. Why would she go


    there?”


    Sean pursed his lips at her question.


    “No, wait. Dad is at Tayhaven too. If Mom knew we lied to her, this might break the Hutton family apart.”


    She paused at that horrible thought briefly. “I’m going to Tayhaven. I can’t let Mom meet with Amelia


    Winters anymore.”


    “Stop right there. Where do you think you’re going?”


    Amelia halted and shot a confused look over her shoulders at Sean. “What’s wrong?”


    “Let Mom and Dad settle it. Even if we manage to pressure Mom toe back with us this time, we


    can’t force her forever. Furthermore, that woman is her daughter. We can’t me her for wanting to


    meet her daughter,” Sean reasoned.


    Amelia eyed him as though he was a stranger instead of the brother she knew.


    “Sean, what’s wrong with you?” asked Amelia.


    “I just think that the woman is her daughter, and you can’t me Mom for meeting her own daughter.”


    “Have you gone mad, Sean? Dad doesn’t even like her. If Mom recognizes her, our family will break


    apart.”


    “Even if Mom doesn’t acknowledge her, our family will break apart all the same.”


    Amelia held her head frustratingly as her temper exploded.


    “Ah! Sean, you can be open-minded, but I can’t. I don’t want our family to break apart. My tenacity was


    to me for their reunion. I don’t want this mistake to go on.” Once the words were out of her mouth,


    Amelia dashed out the front door.


    Noting her desperation and guilt, Sean followed behind her worriedly.


    “Amelia!”


    The minute she was secured in the driver’s seat, she immediately pulled out of the driveway and raced


    to the airport. Filled with worried for her, Sean got in his car and chased after her.


    Once they reached the airport, Sean immediately grasped onto Amelia.


    She struggled fervently as she demanded, “Let go of me! I want to go to Tayhaven and bring Mom


    back!”


    “Calm down, Amelia!”


    “How am I supposed to calm down?”


    “I’ll fix this.”


    Amelia had finally calmed down at his assurance. With hesitance in her eyes, she asked, “Are you


    nning to go to Tayhaven, Sean?”


    “Yeah. I’ll be there for a few days, so I need your help with thepany.”


    “Bring me with you. Don’t reject my request, or else I’ll go there myself,” Amelia said determinedly, not


    giving Sean an option.


    Knowing her obstinacy well, Sean conceded resignedly.


    On the spot, they bought flight tickets and flew to Tayhaven.


    After touching down, Amelia instantly called Benjamin. The phone rang for a long while before he finally


    picked up.


    “Dad, where are you? Mom is also in Tayhaven. Sean and I came here to find her, so we want to meet


    up with you.”


    After Benjamin rattled his address to her, she replied, “All right, Dad. Sean and I will head there right


    away.”


    Upon hanging up her phone, Amelia said, “Sean, let’s go to City Views Apartment, Block B. Dad’s


    currently staying on the tenth floor.”


    Amelia and Sean quickly hailed a cab to get there.


    They spotted Benjamin smoking a cigar by the window the minute they entered the unit.


    Amelia called out, “Dad.”


    Benjamin answered without turning his head, “You’re here.”


    Licking her lip nervously, Amelia went up to him and asked reluctantly, “Dad, Mom is also in Tayhaven.


    I think she went looking for Amelia Winters. Do you want toe with Sean and me to go look for


    her?”


    Benjamin didn’t respond and continued staring out the window.


    “Dad…”


    Suddenly, Benjamin turned around and threw the lighted cigar at Amelia. He used furiously, “If it


    wasn’t for you, do you think your mom would reunite with that b**ch? Your stubbornness broke our


    family apart. Are you happy now?”


    The cigar hit the back of Amelia’s hand, causing her to yelp at the pain at the burning sensation.


    Sean went up to her and took her to the bathroom, swiftly cing her burned hand under the running


    water.


    After a while, Sean asked, “Is it better now?”


    Amelia nodded her head listlessly.


    “Let me help you out.”


    Once they stepped out of the bathroom, they saw Benjamin seated on the couch.


    Feeling a slight dread, Amelia sat on the couch furthest away from Benjamin. “Dad.”


    “Is your hand okay?” Benjamin questioned.


    “It’s fine.”


    “I hope you don’t take my earlier action to your heart. I just lost my temper.”


    “I won’t”


    They both fell into a dead silence, turning the atmosphere awkward and tense.


    “Dad, Mom went to find Amelia Winters. What’s your n?” Sean asked.


    A glint of ruthlessness shed across Benjamin’s eyes as his knuckles had turned white from how hard


    he clenched his fist. I had pleaded with Amelia multiple times to stay away from Eleanor, yet that


    woman continued to challenge my patience. She’s digging her own grave.


    “Sean, I need you to go get your mother. She’s not that happy to see me at the moment,” Benjamin


    said with a darkened expression.


    “Okay.” Sean agreed instantly.


    Amelia cast a careful nce at Benjamin. “Should I go with Sean, Dad?”


    “You stay here and don’t go anywhere.”


    A crestfallen look crossed Amelia’s face.


    “Are you still mad at me?”


    “Yes.”


    She shot to her feet and bowed at him respectfully. “Dad, I’m sorry. I was reckless. I thought Mom


    would be happy once she met her daughter. That was why I did the DNA test between her and Amelia.


    I didn’t expect things to derail.”


    Benjamin scoffed at her exnation.


    An uneasy feeling gripped Amelia. “Dad, don’t be like this. I’m upset over this too.”


    Benjamin rubbed his forehead and said resignedly, “Go now, Sean. Try your best to get your mom


    back.”


    “All right, Dad.”


    Sean patted Amelia’s headfortingly. “Listen to Dad, Amelia. I’ll be back soon.”


    After Sean left, Amelia and Benjamin were the only ones left in the unit.


    She licked her lips to curb her nervousness, confused as to why she was so anxious.


    “Amelia, do you know why you’re named as such?” Benjamin inquired suddenly.


    Amelia stared at him rmingly like a meerkat.


    “That was because of your sister, Amelia. After she went missing, your mom considered you her


    recement and couldn’t stop calling her name. So we decided to change your name to Amelia.”


    Amelia’s expression turned dour. She lowered her head, hiding the gloom in her eyes.


    “In your mom’s heart, you’re just a stand-in for her daughter. Are you willing to be another


    person’s substitute?” Benjamin asked.


    Cruelty filled Amelia’s eyes at Benjamin’s instigation.


    Clenching her fists, she questioned, “Dad, why are you telling me all this?”


    “You have broken two decades of peace and quiet of the Hutton family. I just want you to know you’re


    nothing to your mom once Amelia Winters returns,” Benjamin said mercilessly.


    Amelia lifted her head and asked with a malicious expression, “Dad, will Mom really treat me like that?”


    “She would even divorce me, her husband of thirty years. What’s more, you.”


    “I can’t let that happen. I won’t let her treat me like that. I’ll go look for her.”


    “Stop right there.”


    Amelia halted her furry footsteps.


    “Sit down.”


    Amelia obediently sat down.


    “Let’s talk after your brother return. That Amelia Winters is much harder to deal with than what I


    expected. She has a sharp tongue and is stubborn to the core. A tough nut to crack.” Benjamin


    narrowed his eyes.


    Amelia nodded her lowered head, concealing her expression. No one knew what she was scheming.


    Benjamin took out another cigar and lighted it. Before long, the smoke from the cigar formed a blurry


    screen between the two. They sat in silence in the smoke-filled room. A crack had formed in the


    rtionship between the two closest family members due to Amelia, leaving them distant like


    strangers.
