Too Much To Bear, My Love Chapter 606
Chapter 606 Sense Of Crisis
After asking his subordinate to find out Amelia’s address, Sean bought a lot of toys and supplements to
visit her.
Amelia was a little surprised to see Sean when she opened the door. She remembered Sean and
thought he was polite because he brought some gifts to her house.
“Hi, I’m Sean Hutton. We met once in Beshya. I wonder if you still remember me? I just found out that
my mom had flown to Tayhaven this morning. Hence, I guess she is probably here. I’m a little worried
about her, and so I decided to fly to Tayhaven to visit you,” Sean said politely with an elegant
demeanor.
Amelia turned sideways and replied, “Pleasee in.”
After nodding at Amelia politely, Sean entered her house with the gifts.
“Ms. Winters, since I’m not sure what kids usually prefer, I’ve bought some random toys from the
shopping mall. I hope you don’t mind,” Sean said.
Amelia took the gifts from Sean and thanked him courteously. “That’s very kind of you.”
After secretly ncing around the duplex, Sean thought the decorations were simple but heartwarming.
Although it wasn’t extravagantpared to a vi, he loved the feeling of home.
Given the Clintons’ influence and wealth, Sean initially thought Amelia and Oscar would live in a vi. It
was beyond his expectation that they lived in an ordinary neighborhood with good security. The guards
would have stopped him from entering if he didn’t make a call to the developer, who happened to be his
friend.
After a while, Amelia pointed at the couch and said, “Please be seated and make yourself home. Would
you like to have soft drinks or tea?”
“Just water, please. Thank you,” Sean responded courteously and sat on the couch.
After pouring a ss of water for Sean, Amelia sat on the couch in front of him. “Mrs. Hutton has been
sleeping upstairs for quite a while. I think she’s exhausted.”
“My mom must have troubled you a lot. I’m so sorry.”
“Not at all. Mrs. Hutton is friendly and warm.”
With that, Amelia and Sean fell silent. Even though they were blood-rted, they didn’t live together
since they were young and behaved like strangers.
“Ms. Winters—”
“Just call me Amelia.”
Sean shed her a gentle smile and said, “My sister is also called Amelia. Since you two have the
same name, I somehow think that you’re my younger sister. Moreover, I feel a sense of warmth when
you’re talking to me.”
“Well, I think I’m older than you.” As Amelia chuckled heartily, the atmosphere became warmer.
After sizing Amelia up secretly, Sean thought she wasn’t as annoying as he had always expected.
Perhaps due to blood rtions, Sean unknowingly regarded Amelia as her elder sister. After all, Amelia
was more mature and consideratepared to his younger sister. He couldn’t help but question his
previous judgment.
At first, Sean thought of using Amelia because she had the backing of the Clintons. Now, Sean thought
it was good to have a kind and considerate elder sister like her.
When Sean let out a sincere smile, Amelia also felt the kindness exuded from him.
sping his hands, Sean gazed at Amelia and said, “I suppose you know who you are now. If you
don’t mind, I’m willing to treat you as my elder sister. However, it might take some time before that
happens because of past grudges of the previous generation.”
Amelia put on a faint smile and responded, “Won’t you be worried that Mr. Hutton might be irritated and
rip the right of inheritance of you?”
“I’m worried. After all, everyone covets power and status. However, because I’m a man, I have to strive
to make a name for myself,” Sean said confidently.
After sizing Sean up secretly, Amelia felt that Sean was gentlemanly, mature, and well-mannered. As
such, he had made a good impression on her. Deep down, she didn’t mind having a younger brother.
Instead, her only worry was that Sean didn’t wish to acknowledge her due to pressure from the elders.
“You’re right. A man should make a name for himself to prove himself worthy,” Amelia agreed.
With that, they looked at each other and grinned.
After a while, Amelia said from the bottom of her heart, “Mr. Hutton, I think my life will be a lot more
interesting if I have a smart and rational brother like you.”
“Well, same goes to me.”
When the two were having a great time, Eleanor came downstairs. Her expression turned grim once
she saw Sean.
“Sean, why are you here?” As Eleanor came downstairs in a hurry, she almost sprained her ankle and
fell from the stairs.
Sean quickly stood up and rushed toward Eleanor to support her. “Mom, are you all right?”
Ignoring his question, Eleanor grabbed his hand and asked nervously, “Sean, what do you want to do
to Lia? I’m telling you— no one can hurt her as long as I’m here.”
Sean couldn’t help but let out a bitterugh. Mom, are you bewitched? Why do you put your guard up
against your son? After all, your daughter has gone missing for over twenty years!
“Mom, am I such a person in your eyes?” Sean asked calmly.
At that moment, Eleanor came to her senses and realized that she had overreacted.
“Sean, I didn’t mean that. I’m just worried that you—”
“You are worried that Dad sent me here, right?” Sean finished the sentence for Eleanor.
A mix of emotions flickered across Eleanor’s face.
“Mom, Dad did send me here to persuade you. Nheless, Dad and I love you and don’t wish to see
you get hurt. Since you’ve run away from home, all of us are worried about you. Can you not leave
without a word anymore?”
A sense of guilt shed across Eleanor’s eyes. However, she soon felt disgruntled after recalling what
they did to her in the past.
“Sean, tell your dad that I’m not going back. I’ll get awyer to apply for a divorce. Since he has fooled
me, the trust between us exists no more. As such, I think there’s no need to maintain the marriage,”
Eleanor said with a cold expression.
Once Eleanor finished, the smile on Sean’s face faded lightly.
“Mom, I know that you’re upset with Dad. However, can you please tell me why? Throughout the
month, I couldn’t see what Dad had done wrong. I mean, he deserves to know the reason, doesn’t he?”
Sean argued calmly.
“He secretly changed Lia’s number on my phone and met Lia behind my back. I can’t tolerate that my
husband has be a two-faced man. Go home and tell your dad that our marriage is over!” Mrs.
Hutton spread her arms and eximed emotionally.
Sean took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
“Amelia, can you give Mom and me a minute? I wish to talk to her,” Sean asked Amelia.
“I’ll go upstairs to check if Tony is awake,” Amelia got it and quickly went upstairs, leaving Sean and
Eleanor in the living room.
“Mom, can we go home instead of arguing about it now? Here is not your home. Besides, staying here
is not a long-term solution, right?” Sean patiently persuaded Eleanor.
“Sean, are you stopping me from reuniting with my daughter?”
“Mom, I didn’t mean that. Instead, I merely think you should do it step by step. Pushing her too hard will
only scare her away.”
Eleanor lowered her head and went into deep thought.
“Mom, please go home with me first. After all, she lives here and won’t go anywhere. We should look at
the bigger picture and do it slowly. By then, I think she will eventually ept you.”
After a while, Eleanor heaved a sigh and responded, “Sean, don’t try to persuade me anymore. I won’t
leave.”
Sean came up to Eleanor and added gently, “Mom, can you please go home with me? Dad and Amelia
are worried about you.”
Much to Sean’s surprise, Eleanor brushed his hand off and retorted, “They wouldn’t have lied to me if
they are indeed worried about me.”
Helplessness glinted in Sean’s eyes. He never thought that Eleanor would refuse to heed his advice
when she was riled up.
Meanwhile, Amelia came downstairs while carrying Tony. “Tony, you can call him Mr. Hutton.”
After fixating his gaze upon Sean for a while, Tony was shocked as though he had discovered
something new. He said curiously, “Mommy, Mr. Hutton’s eyes look just like yours.”
Amelia instinctively turned to Sean and realized that it was true. Sean’s brimming eyes were indeed
simr to hers.
“Mommy, who is he?” Tony asked.
“He’s Mrs. Hutton’s son.”
Blinking his eyes, Tony said in a cute voice, “Mommy, all of you look like each other. Are you family? I
learned from some TV programs that only family members look like each other.”
The three adults were all dumbfounded.
Sean was the first to react. He carried Tony and asked, “Little boy, do you want me to be your
uncle?”
“Yes.”
“Why?”
“It’s because your eyes look like Mommy’s. They are just like the moon in the sky. Mommy has said
that anyone with this kind of eyes is kind-hearted. Hence, I have no choice but to ept you as
Mommy’s rtive.”
Sean chuckled upon hearing it. He didn’t expect that Tony’s rationale would be that straightforward.
“Boy, for these words, I will be your uncle.”
“I’m Anthony Clinton. I’m a man now. You can call me Tony, but please don’t call me little boy.”
“Sure, Tony.”
Since Sean enjoyed chatting with Tony, he unknowingly stayed in Amelia’s house for a long time. It was
already six in the evening when Sean checked his phone.
“Mom, I’ll go home for now and see you again tomorrow.” Sean bid Eleanor farewell. Then, he gazed at
Amelia and said, “Amelia, please take care of my mom. If it’s possible, please persuade her not to get a
divorce from my dad. After all, they have married and supported each other for several decades. The
Hutton family will be broken apart if they are separated. Thank you so much.”
After that, Sean left Amelia’s house. Since Eleanor was worried that Amelia would overthink it, she
said, “Lia, don’t listen to Sean. My rtionship with his dad hase to an end. Both of us will suffer if
we insist on staying together.”
Amelia smiled and replied, “Mrs. Hutton, don’t overthink it. I won’t interfere in your marriage. Besides,
an outsider like me does not have the right to do so.”
“Lia, you’re not an outsider but my daughter.”
Since Amelia didn’t want to dwell on the matter, she changed the subject of the conversation. “Mrs.
Hutton, you must be hungry. Molly has prepared dinner and put the food in the microwave. Oscar is
attending a meeting and shoulde home in half an hour’s time. We can have dinner together when
he’s back.”
Meanwhile, a hint of disappointment shed across Eleanor’s eyes.
“Mrs. Hutton, have a seat and try some fruits. I’ve asked Molly to tidy the guest room for you. You can
stay here for a few days.”

“Lia, are you tired of me?”
“Mrs. Hutton, don’t overthink things. You’re always wee to drop by. However, I do not wish to be
the person who destroys your marriage.”
Eleanor’s expression darkened, and mixed feelings overwhelmed her.
A momentter, Amelia gestured for Tony to keep Eleanorpany, hoping to divert her attention.
Sean, who returned home empty-handed, bowed before Benjamin.
“Did your mom refuse toe home?” Benjamin asked calmly.
“Dad, I’m sorry. I couldn’t persuade Mom toe back.”
“I knew it.”
“Dad, what do you n to do next?”
“Since Eleanor is my wife, she has to be with me no matter what.”
“Dad, I’ve rarely seen Mom so determined in doing something. Hence, I think it’s best not to push her
too hard.” After giving it some thought, Sean added, “Besides, I think Amelia isn’t as annoying as we
used to think. She’s pretty easy-going and considerate.”
“What do you mean? Are you going to disobey me too?”
Sean fell silent.
“You may leave now. Anyway, it’s gettingte. Order three sets of food for us.”
“Understood.”
After Sean called the restaurant to order three sets of food, the deliveryman arrived very soon.
Sean ced the food neatly before knocking on the door. “Dad, let’s have dinner.”
Not long after the family of three had the tasteless dinner, Benjamin wiped his mouth with a napkin and
said, “I’m full.” With that, Benjamin pushed his chair back and went upstairs.
Watching Benjamin walk upstairs, Amelia lost her appetite. She heaved a sigh and asked, “Sean, how
is Mom now?”
“She didn’t want toe back.”
“I knew it.”
“Let’s eat first and don’t overthink it.”
However, Amelia put down her spoon and grumbled, “How can I have the appetite when our home has
be like this?”
“Amelia, this is the matter between Mom and Dad. You shouldn’t interfere in it.”
“Since it all happened because of me, how can I turn a blind eye? Dad is giving me the cold shoulder
now. Besides, he has cut more than half of my allowance on my card. If this persists, he might just
cancel my credit card.”
When Amelia spoke, Sean put down his spoon and stared at her in annoyance.
In the meantime, Amelia knew that she had misspoken and quickly exined, “Sean, I didn’t mean
that. I’m only worried about Mom and Dad.”
“Eat up. I won’t let anything happen to them.”
“Sean, can I go with you tomorrow? I haven’t seen Tony for quite some time.”
“I’m sure visiting Oscar is your motive, right?”
Amelia shrugged.
“Amelia, you’d better watch yourself.”
“Sean, didn’t you agree that I should be with Oscar?”
“Well, I just suddenly think that you two are not the perfect match. I mean, you’re indeed not good
enoughpared to Amelia Winters.”
All of a sudden, Amelia felt a sense of crisis.
