Love You Enough to Leave You novel Chapter 346

Chapter 346 Seduction

After parking his car, Derrick got out of the vehicle and went to the back seat to help Oscar out, with the latter mumbling Amelia’s name over and over again.

Derrick had a hard time getting that strapping man off the car. It took him a while just to get him back to the apartment Oscar used to share with Amelia.

Pulling Oscar into the room, Derrick pushed that bulky man on his bed. He clicked his tongue in frustration while looking at the unconscious man before proceeding to help Oscar remove his socks and put a blanket over the latter. “You know what, Mr. Clinton? We’ve been through so much together we should actually be friends, but we each have people we need to protect. If it were not for that, we could be very good friends.”

Glancing at the man lying on the bed, he sighed. Then, he closed the door behind him before heading downstairs to rest. He was so spent he did not even take off his clothes, but just hit the sofa and dozed off.

Little did he know that once he went out of the room, the sleeping man, who was supposed to be drunk, opened his eyes wide with all alertness.

Oscar took out his phone to make a call. “Hugo, someone called Derrick just now. I need to know where that call was made.”

“Yes, Boss.”

Ending the call, Oscar rolled over to get out of bed and walked to the window. He looked into the night, falling into deep thoughts.

His grip tightened around his phone as he pondered. “Amelia, I’ll find you soon.”

As expected, within the next half an hour, Hugo dialed back. “I’ve just gotten the location. The call was made from a public phone booth in Beshya. It’s near Principal General Hospital.”

Hearing that, Oscar was alarmed. His gaze darted around as he thought hard. “Hugo, I need to be on the next flight to Beshya.”

“Yes, Boss.”

Despite how anxious Oscar was, things did not go as planned. It so happened that the next flight to Beshya was fully booked, so they had to wait until nine o’clock in the morning to fly over.

Oscar was dismayed when he found out about it, as he intended to be in Beshya as soon as possible. “Get my private jet ready.”

“But Mr. Clinton, it’s not too late to depart tomorrow morning. She’ll still be there by tomorrow morning if she’s really residing in Beshya,” Hugo advised carefully after some thought.

“Since when do you have so much to say, Hugo? Just do as you’re told.” Oscar was in a foul mood.

“Yes, Boss,” Hugo replied in his dutiful voice again.

Knowing that Oscar did not appreciate his opinions, but expected him to get the task done soon, Hugo got to work immediately.

The whole bedroom fell back into silence after Oscar ended the call. His eyes glistened in the dark room with anticipation. He had a feeling that he would meet Amelia tomorrow, but he completely forgot that Derrick was still in the house.

Derrick was almost asleep on the couch when he decided to check on Oscar one last time, in fear that the drunk man would puke after drinking so much. When he got upstairs and was about to open the door, he heard Oscar’s voice from inside the room. He moved closer stealthily, pressing his ear against the door to listen to what Oscar was saying.

As someone trained in martial arts before, he had a keen sense of hearing. Although he could not hear everything Oscar was saying, it was enough for him to figure out that Oscar was on Amelia’s tail again.

He swiftly went back downstairs and left the apartment without making a single noise. Fishing out his phone, he called Tiffany right after.

As he had planned earlier on, this phone would be used exclusively for him to contact Tiffany. Even his parents did not know this phone number. In fact, not even Tiffany knew about its existence.

“Hi, may I know who’s speaking?” Tiffany’s voice came from the other side.

“It’s me, Tiff.”

“Mr. Hisson?”

“Yes. Listen to me, Tiff. Oscar found out that both of you are at Principal General Hospital in Beshya. He’s taking his private jet over now. You and Kurt need to bring her away as soon as possible.”

“But Amelia just finished her surgery. She can’t even walk now. What if something happens to her? What if she gets injured in the middle of all of this?” Tiffany was anxious.

“Calm down, Tiffany,” Derrick comforted gently. “I’ll ask Mr. Jackman to pick you guys up at the hospital. I’ll notify the hospital so they get rid of all Amelia’s records, so even if Oscar does go to the hospital, he won’t be able to find a thing about Amelia. Don’t worry about it, okay?”

A short pause followed as Tiffany thought about their arrangement. “All right. I’ll leave it to you, then. Thank you so much, Mr. Hisson.”

Hearing that, Derrick smiled widely. Tiffany’s gratitude put him in a phenomenal mood. “Well, you should at least stop calling me Mr. Hisson if you’re really thankful. It feels like you’re still treating me like your higher-up. You should call me ‘Derry’, or just something like ‘Darling’.”

A longer pause ensued this time, but Derrick was not in a hurry, so he waited patiently.

His smile deepened as the pause stretched out. As he expected, Tiffany’s voice came again after a few seconds. “Derry.” Tiffany felt a gush of embarrassment overtaking her. “This is so cringy. I prefer calling you Mr. Hisson. This is already like a term of endearment to me. Of course, I can call you ‘Derry’ if you want, but I will still go with ‘Derrick’ when there are people around,” she continued as she looked around the hospital. “All right, I got to go check on Amelia. Talk to you later.”

“Sure. See you, Tiff.”

Derrick gave Boris and the hospital director a call respectively after that. After briefing them on the situation, the two set to work. Boris was quick to act. He immediately asked Collin to drive to the hospital. As for the hospital director, he made arrangements for the nurses to delete every single copy of Amelia’s medical report. He even asked the hospital staff to not breathe a single word about Amelia, in case anyone probed into the matter.

Not long after everything was put in place, Derrick saw Oscar rushing out of his apartment and hopping into his own car before driving out.

Derrick watched his car pull off until it completely vanished out of his sight. He did not follow Oscar. Instead, he waited for him to drive off before starting his own engine and drove out of the neighborhood slowly, heading in the opposite direction.

By the time Oscar reached the parking slot he had bought specifically for his own jet, Hugo and the others were already waiting for him.

The moment they spotted Oscar, they approached him and informed, “Everything is ready, Mr. Clinton. We can take off anytime.”

Responding with a nod, Oscar went toward the jet with him.
