I don't think it was about her sparing him of his obligations, but more so that she did not want to be an obligation. That if the choice was between Bertrand supporting her aloofly because he felt he had to and her being alone, she would choose the latter.

She freely took money from Maxwell because Maxwell wanted to help her and Bartie. He didn't help just because she was an obligation of House Beaumont. I think if Bertrand had offered to help her with same outlook and enthusiasm of Maxwell she would've stayed even if he didn't want a relationship with her.
