Love You Enough to Leave You novel Chapter 294

Chapter 294 Selling The House

“Mr. Scott, I think you should leave. I need to accompany Amelia to view some houses. Goodbye. I won’t see you out.” Tiffany made it very clear that it was time for him to leave.

Carter pretended he didn’t understand her words as his gaze remained on Amelia. “Amelia, are you going house viewing? I’ll go with you,” he offered earnestly.

Amelia felt powerless to reject his advances.

Kurt glanced at him and spoke up. “Mr. Scott, I’ll help Amelia with that. We don’t need your help.”

Carter glowered at him and demanded, “Why is a bodyguard this talkative?”

Kurt kept a straight face and didn’t bother responding to him.

Amelia walked over to Carter and told him, “Thanks for coming today, Carter, but I’m pretty busy today. Can you please leave now? I’ll prepare a spread for you sometime later. I’m really sorry.”

Carter’s passion gradually died down. He clenched his hands tightly before releasing them. Gazing at Amelia affectionately, he declared, “All right, I’ll leave now. If you need me, I’m just a call away. I’ll definitely come right away to help you whenever you need my help no matter what it is.”

“Carter, thank you,” she thanked him gratefully.

Gazing at her, Carter suddenly pulled her into his arms.

Amelia froze at the sudden hug and began struggling to free herself. Carter leaned nearer and whispered in her ear, “Amelia, when I heard about your divorce, I was afraid you’ll be hurt, but at the same time, I was extremely delighted. You’re single, and I have the right to pursue you. I know you’re not in the mood for a new relationship now, but I can wait. Please leave a space for me in your future life instead of treating me as a friend. I’ll do my best to make you happy.”

He released her after saying that and lowered his head to gaze at her. “I’ll take my leave now and come again tomorrow,” he assured.

After Carter’s figure disappeared from sight, Amelia remained in a daze.

Tiffany patted her on the shoulder. “Babe, are you all right?” she inquired in concern.

Amelia snapped back to reality and glanced at Tiffany while shaking her head. She didn’t utter a word.

Knowing what was on her mind, Tiffany suggested, “Babe, should we go buy some necessities for Tony? We’re going to leave soon, right? I think we should prepare Tony’s stuff in advance so we won’t panic when it’s time to leave.”

Amelia inclined her head before saying, “Tiff, if your work forbids you to leave, you should stay instead of leaving with me. I will give you a call after settling down at my new place.”

“Babe, if I remain here, do you think Oscar and the Clintons won’t find you? When they discover where you are, they will demand Tony’s custody. Do you want that?” she asked nonchalantly.

Tiffany’s words hit the nail on the head.

Amelia fell silent as she pondered Tiffany’s words.

Indeed, if Tiffany remained in the city, Oscar would find her through Tiffany. As she had tricked them, the Clintons definitely locate her in every way possible and take legal action to win back Tony’s custody. If that were to happen, her past efforts would be in vain.

“All right. I’ll head to the company and talk to Shannon and Der… Mr. Hisson. We can leave after that. I’m planning to sell this house. I’ve already found a buyer, and he is coming here this afternoon to sign the agreement.” Being a woman of action, Tiffany had made up her mind swiftly. Back when Amelia told her about the divorce, she had already started planning everything.

This house was just a place for her to sleep at night. She had no family. Her relatives and friends weren’t in this city, too. Just like a wandering dandelion, she would settle down wherever she landed. Though she was slightly reluctant to part with this house, it wasn’t that hard to sell it off.

Amelia shot Tiffany a surprised look, for she had no idea Tiffany would sell this house off. She found a buyer so swiftly! She didn’t even tell me about it.

“Tiff, why are you selling the house suddenly?” Amelia inquired.

“We’re going to leave, right? I don’t know when we’ll return. If I don’t sell it, it’s going to remain empty,” Tiffany replied casually.

“But you work hard to buy this house. It’s meaningful. Isn’t it a pity to sell it off?” Amelia didn’t share her sentiments.

“I do feel a little reluctant, but it’s just a house. We can buy a new house elsewhere.” This house was nothing but a mere shelter for Tiffany. Though she had lived here for some time, it wasn’t that hard to part with it.

“But-”

Tiffany cut in impatiently, “Babe, enough. It’s just a house. I can buy another house after selling it. It’s not that serious.”

Amelia said nothing else. She knew Tiffany was doing this for her sake. She couldn’t stop but feel guilty.

I’m lucky to have such a friend in life.

Shrugging nonchalantly, Tiffany said, “I’ll head to my company now. If everything goes well, we can leave tonight or tomorrow. The earlier, the better. Otherwise, when Oscar finds out about our plan, we won’t be able to leave.”
