Love You Enough to Leave You novel Chapter 449

Chapter 449 Do Not Give Up So Easily

“Oscar, let’s send Rory home first. She sprained her leg just before we came down,” Amelia said.

Oscar only replied with a nod.

While she steadied Rory toward the car, the latter feigned a conflicted expression. “Amelia, go back with Oscar. I’ll be fine taking the bus back home by myself.”

“What do you mean? We’re friends now. Am I even human to leave you by yourself when you’ve sprained your ankle? Oscar’s a nice person; get in the car.” Finishing her words, Amelia helped Rory into the backseat before heading for the passenger seat at the front.

Inside the car, Oscar turned his body toward Amelia and planted a kiss on her lips. She was slightly embarrassed by his sudden show-off and gave him a push on his chest as she whispered, “Rory is in the backseat. Take it easy, Oscar.”

Oscar fell back onto his driver’s seat and started his car engines without saying anything further.

Lowering her head, Rory tried to suppress the jealousy in her eyes. Moments later, she looked up again; this time, her eyes were as clear and bright as a fresh graduate who had just stepped foot into the society and had yet been brainwashed and influenced by the complex and nasty world.

“Amelia, you have a good relationship with Oscar. I thought you weren’t on good terms with Oscar while I was taking care of you back at Beshya, and that’s why you guys had a divorce. I guess my mind has gone into the gutter. You two are truly a match made in heaven. How wonderful!” Rory chuckled as she spoke her mind.

Amelia smiled. “We did have a misunderstanding previously, but we’ve talked things out. He’s quite aloof and doesn’t like to talk. Don’t be freaked out by him.”

Rory secretly sized the focused man up and cackled. “At one look, it’s enough to tell that he’s a successful man, unlike me who has just stepped into the workforce for a few months and would still make mistakes at work.”

“He’s indeed quite successful with his career.” Amelia did not go in-depth into Oscar’s job.

Likewise, Rory was nimble-witted and did not continue probing. She tried changing the subject and started putting her flattery skills to use.

“You’re equally awe-inspiring too, Amelia. You could’ve easily depended on your looks for livelihood, yet you chose to make yourself shine with your talents. I admire that you’d rather carve out your career route with your own efforts and capabilities when you could’ve lived your life comfortably without having to slog your guts out. I already find that you were no ordinary woman back while I was your caregiver in Beshya. And just like I’ve thought, you’re indeed one exceptional woman.”

Amelia kept a warm smile on her face upon hearing that.

“Rory, you’re flattering me. I’m not that great.”

“Amelia, I knew you’re special ever since the first time I saw you. I’m pretty sure I’m right about that at this point. Don’t you think so, Oscar?” Unlike her reserved appearance earlier when she first met Oscar, Rory was now bubbling with energy.

Perhaps caught off guard by Rory’s chattiness, Oscar did not respond.

“Oscar, Rory is talking to you,” Amelia reminded. She was afraid Rory would be intimidated by Oscar’s unapproachable and forbidding vibe.

“Amelia has always been the best in my heart,” he calmly replied.

Hearing that, Rory only felt like she ate dirt.

“Rory, he’s always like that, so don’t be scared by his attitude.”

Rory’s fingers that she rested on the seat twitched slightly as her grin grew wider. “Oscar is a man who has to shoulder great responsibilities. Such a demeanor suits him perfectly.”

At that, not only did Oscar remain quiet like how he did before, but even Amelia also fell dead silent.

And with Rory’s direction, Oscar soon arrived before her accommodation.

As the car came to a halt, Amelia hurriedly went over to help Rory get out. At the same time, she took a quick look at the surroundings. Hmm, what a nice neighborhood this is. It’s serene and quiet. She instinctively nodded in agreement with her thought before popping the question. “Rory, this is a pleasantly peaceful area. I’m guessing the rental isn’t cheap?”

The latter chuckled. “It’s half of my salary. I reckoned I should have a nice place to stay after working my fingers to the bone; otherwise, I wouldn’t be doing justice to myself. As for the rest of my monthly salary, I’ll wire a thousand for my parents and save the rest for daily usage. Amelia, are you judging me for spending way too much money?”

“Why would I? How’s your ankle feeling right now? Do you need us to send you upstairs?” Amelia was like a caring sister to her.

“There’s no need. It’s getting late; you guys should head home now. Don’t let Tony stay up waiting for you.”

“All right. Be careful, then. Call me if you have any problems. Don’t hold it in. Understand?”

Rory nodded her head.

After she headed up, Amelia looked at the grim-faced Oscar, lifted her hands, and tugged his cheeks. “What’s wrong? Why haven’t you been talking the whole night?”

Oscar wrapped his hand on her neck and pulled her in to kiss her. He then pried open her clenched teeth with his tongue and slipped it through to entangle with hers. It was as if their lips were glued that they separate from each other for a long time. By the time they part reluctantly, Amelia felt herself feeling breathless. It was so intense that even her gazes looked a little dazed and out of focus.

“Get in the car,” Oscar muttered lovingly after planting another kiss on her lips.

After getting into the car, Amelia received a text message from Rory. In it, she said she hoped to visit them and play with Tony on the coming weekends.

In that instance, Amelia felt an odd feeling rising within her. She found that Rory had become unusually enthusiastic all of a sudden.

“Who’s that?” Oscar asked.
