Love You Enough to Leave You novel Chapter 301

Chapter 301 Left

It was two-thirty in the morning when the plane touched down in Beshya. A private car was waiting for them at the airport, and Derrick had his men put all the luggage into the car.

The four adults and the sleeping Tony got into the car, and the chauffeur drove everyone to Derrick’s villa, which was in the suburbs. That was a luxurious place and had a number of different villas in its surroundings. It was obviously located within a luxurious area.

The chauffeur drove the car over and parked it. After that, Derrick spoke to the chauffeur. “You can go home and rest up now.”

“Understood, Mr. Hisson.”

After getting out of the car, Derrick said, “This is the villa I got for myself here in Beshya. Everyone in the neighborhood is a powerful figure here, and if you girls are bored, you can go talk to the neighbors. The ladies here are mostly wives of rich men and often have a lot of free time. There’s no need to be too polite, though, because everyone knows each other here.”

Amelia examined the spacious villa. She could not help but gasp once more at how Derrick was much wealthier than she imagined.

“Derrick, you are richer than I thought. Oh, but you better treasure Tiff because she has an intensive network,” commented Amelia in a meaningful tone.

She was basically hinting that Derrick should not assume that he could mess with Tiffany just because he was rich. Amelia and Tiffany were not as powerful as he was, but if Derrick were to hurt Tiffany, they would empty the limited resources they had just to fight him.

Derrick was a genius, so naturally, he understood what Amelia was hinting at. He could not help but grow more impressed by Amelia. At that moment, he finally understood why Tiffany was willing to go through hell and fight endlessly for Amelia. The old wives’ tale claims that friendships between women are weak, but I guess things only seem that way because some women never truly worked hard for their friendship. Sometimes, women make friends that are there for them forever.

Derrick smiled and replied, “I am not stupid enough to hurt the woman I spent three years courting. If anything, I will treasure her and love her for the rest of my life because it’d be a waste of my time otherwise.”

Amelia’s lips instinctively curved into a smile. Good. At least one of us can lead a happy life.

“You better remember what you promise today, Derrick. If I ever catch you hurting her, I will take her far, far away,” threatened Amelia.

Draping his arm over Tiffany, Derrick confidently announced, “Don’t worry, Amelia. You won’t have to.”

Tiffany felt her cheeks burning red. She would not be surprised if someone were to tell her she looked as bright as an apple at that moment.

She pushed Derrick away and pretended to be annoyed before complaining, “That’s enough from the both of you. I’m standing right here, you know? Geez, I feel like a piece of jewelry being tossed back and forth. Come on, let’s hurry up. It’s almost three, and we can all forget about getting any sleep if we keep wasting our time talking over here.”

After saying all that, Tiffany forged ahead. She was so shy that she could not help but cover her face with her hand.

Amelia could not resist giggling at that funny scene. “Let’s go,” said Amelia.

Tiffany was rather in tune with her tomboy side, so she would never have felt shy if she didn’t love Derrick. It was likely she loved Derrick more than she realized. At that moment, Amelia simply prayed that Derrick’s love for Tiffany was true. Otherwise, Tiffany would be in more pain than anyone could imagine. It was just like how things were with Amelia. She looked fine on the surface, but the truth was that she had already given up on love. Other than Oscar, she could not see herself falling in love with other men.

“When you love someone that deeply, everyone else that comes after will be nothing but his replacement.”

That was one of the most iconic quotes from the television drama that Amelia used to watch.

When Amelia entered the villa, she saw two rows of maids standing at the side. Tiffany was stupefied as she stared at the maids, who had been waiting for them for quite some time.

When everyone entered, the maids simultaneously stated, “Welcome.”

Amelia was smiling a little stiffly at the time. Tiffany, on the other hand, backed away to Amelia’s side to hug her arm. The former shot a strange look over at Derrick before whispering, “D-Derrick, was this your idea?”

It was the middle of the night, so at first, Tiffany thought she had stumbled into a haunted mansion. She entered the villa on her own earlier, and the sight of everyone scared her so much that she almost wet her pants. Is this a surprise or an ambush?

Derrick found that amusing. Releasing a grin, he asked, “Do you not enjoy welcoming gestures like these?”

Tiffany tugged at his arm a little and replied, “D-Derrick… Ah, that sounds so weird. I think I’ll just call you Mr. Hisson. Anyway, don’t get everyone up in the middle of the night just for things like this lest they will assume that we’re divas. Let everyone go to bed already.”

With a smile, Derrick waved his hands and instructed, “You can go back to your respective rooms now, everyone.”

“Understood,” replied the trained maids. With that, they returned to their rooms in an orderly manner.

An elderly guy in his sixties approached them and politely informed, “Mr. Hisson, you’re finally here. I’ve prepared the rooms for your guests, and they can move in right away.”

“Thank you, Jeremy,” replied Derrick respectfully to the elderly man.

After that, Derrick turned to Tiffany and Amelia to introduce everyone to each other. “This is Jeremy,” he started. “He is the butler who helps me maintain this villa.”

“Hello, Jeremy,” greeted Amelia and Tiffany graciously.

Endearing warmth exuded from Jeremy’s eyes when he gazed at the women. Smiling, he replied, “Mr. Hisson told me about the two of you. I gather you’re both Ms. Winters?”

“You can call me Amelia, Jeremy.”

“And you can call me Tiffany.”

“Good, I’m glad to hear that,” replied Jeremy. He was obviously delighted to see how respectful both Amelia and Tiffany were.

Derrick wrapped his arm around Tiffany and happily announced, “Jeremy, this is my girlfriend, and she will be the lady of the house someday. Please take care of her while I’m gone and know that her orders carry the same weight as mine.”

A hint of surprise flashed past Jeremy’s eyes. He thought about it for a while before asking, “But, Mr. Hisson, what about Ms. Halliwell?”

Hearing the mention of that name, Derrick turned grouchy and immediately scolded, “Tiffany is the only woman for me, Jeremy. Everyone else has nothing to do with me!”

Jeremy was quick to hide his shock away. After that, he apologized, “I apologize. Please ignore what I said.”
