Chapter 528 Talk Things Out

• Seeing that Amelia Winters did not retort even after being rebuked, Eleanor felt a pang of heartache. After all, she wanted nothing more than to cherish and love the daughter whom she could not reunite with. Even though she was dissatisfied that Olivia did not seem fond of her daughter, she could not voice her frustrations.
• After clenching and unclenching her fists beneath the table, she said, “Mrs. Clinton, you seem younger than me. Can I call you by your name? You must be good at taking care of your health, seeing that you seem youthful and pretty. I can tell at a glance that you come from a noble family. Lia told me many good things about you multiple times. She said that she missed you the most during those two years she was in Beshya and felt sorry for leaving. However, she was blind at that time and didn't want to trouble you. Her time in Beshya wasn't pleasant as she had to take care of a child after losing her sight.”
• Feeling emotional, she paused for a while before continuing, “When I saw that she was blind and had a child with her, I asked her where her spouse was. She was hesitant to tell me at first, but probably because she finds us compatible, she eventually told me a lot about you two. She described you as a benevolent and gentle mother-in-law who cares about her a lot. When she found out she was losing her sight, she didn't want to burden you and your family. However, she had nothing left and could not bring herself to part with her child. Thus, she steeled her heart and brought Tony away with her. At that time, she felt that an excellent guy like Oscar would be able to move on swiftly and build a big family with another woman. She said that you would have many grandchildren while she only had Tony. Afterward, I heard that Oscar went to find her and brought her to Anglandur for a cornea transplant before bringing her home. When I was at Saspiuburg, I was concerned that you would be harsh on her, yet she sang your praises over the phone. It made me curious about you. I wanted to meet a magnanimous woman like you, so I made a presumptuous request, asking her to invite you and your husband out. Now that I have met you today, I see that you are compassionate, generous, knowledgeable, and reasonable, just as she had described. I'm relieved to know that she has you as her mother-in-law.”
