This seems very reasonable to me. Like even in the Godfather Michael only killed Freddie when his mother had died because he didn't want to break her heart.
Berengar wanted to reject this notion, as he knew this could potentially allow Lambert to return to Kufstein with an army of hardened warriors at his back. However, when he saw the desperate look in his mother's eyes, he could not help but give in.
