Love You Enough to Leave You novel Chapter 72

Halfway through the meal, Amelia excused herself to go to the washroom. She exited the room and took a deep breath before leaving for the washroom. Amelia was washing her hands when the door was suddenly pushed open. It was Jennifer. Her high heels clicked on the floor as she walked over. Jennifer said coldly, “Carter spoke up for you during dinner. Are you proud of yourself now?” Amelia turned around and replied, “Ms. Larson, I think you’re mistaken. Mr. Scott is only a friend. He just takes more care of me because we’ve already known each other for a very long time.

If you like him, you can go confess, but don’t drag me into it. I don’t want my husband to hear any weird rumors.” Jennifer folded her arms. “As long as you don’t try to seduce him, he’ll fall in love with me someday.” Amelia forced a smile. “Mr. Scott is a grown man. He knows what he wants for himself. It’s not something we can decide for him. I’ll say it again. I already have a husband. I’m not interested in seducing anyone else.” “So are you not going to resign anymore?” “I didn’t do anything wrong. Why should I resign?” “Fine, don’t resign then. You better make sure I don’t find out any dirt about you, or else, I’ll make the Clintons kick you out of their family.

I’m sure the Scotts will also be on my side.” “Whatever.” Amelia shrugged. What’s important between two people is that they understand each other. Otherwise, they’re just wasting their breaths. Just like how this conversation is going. “If there’s nothing else, Ms. Larson, I’ll leave first.” “Stop there!” Amelia rolled her eyes in exasperation and asked, “What now?” “Stay away from Carter. He’s mine.” Amelia lowered her head and replied, “Mr. Scott and I are merely platonic friends. Don’t blame me for whatever is happening between you two. Tie him up and keep him for yourself if you can.

Otherwise, he’s my boss, so I definitely will continue interacting with him.” Amelia then left the washroom without looking back. Jennifer stared at herself in the mirror and said angrily, “Amelia, just wait and see. One day, I’ll destroy your entire life.” Jennifer then gave someone a call. When the other person picked up, she said, “Loren? Get someone to track a person for me. I’ll send you the details via email. I need pictures of her acting intimately with other men.” Someone spoke on the other end of the line, then Jennifer replied, “As long as you give me what I want, money is not an issue.”

The other party spoke again, and Jennifer continued, “I’ll wait for your good news. You’ve always handled your previous jobs well, so don’t disappoint me this time.” They exchanged a few more words before Jennifer finally hung up. As she left the washroom, Jennifer put back on her mask of civility. She returned to the dining room and smiled. “Sorry I took so long. I’ll finish off this glass as punishment for being late.” The others stood up and drank with her. They continued drinking for another two or three hours before they finally brought up the contract.

Mr. Reed had initially wanted to negotiate for a lower price. However, after finding out that Amelia was married to Oscar, he simply signed the contract right away. Mr. Reed then turned to Amelia and smiled. “Amelia, could you do me a favor and invite Mr. Clinton to have dinner with me one of these days?” Amelia smiled back politely. “Mr. Reed, I’ll ask him, but I can’t guarantee anything. However, he’ll usually agree as long as he’s not busy with work.” Mr. Reed smiled brightly. “Thanks, Amelia. Don’t worry, I just want to make friends with Mr. Clinton.

If he doesn’t agree to come, then it just means that he doesn’t intend to have me as a friend. It’s all up to our fate.” Amelia had quite a good impression of Mr. Reed. He was bold and generous and does not nitpick at every little thing. He was definitely someone who would be loyal to his friends. Thus, she answered on behalf of Oscar first. “My husband is always willing to meet for a meal. However, he’s busy with work and has to meet with clients very often. I’m just afraid that he may want to rest at home when he gets some free time.” “Don’t worry about it.

I’ll just give you a call when I’m free. You can help pass on the message to Mr. Clinton then.” Amelia nodded in reply. They chatted for a while longer before saying their goodbyes. Back in the car, Jennifer said, “You’re such a big shot, Amelia. I think Reed Group only signed the contract so easily because of Mr. Clinton. You’re so good at public relations. As long as you’re there, you can help us get more benefits.”

Amelia stared straight ahead, ignoring her words. Jennifer started to get annoyed. She had always been the center of everyone’s attention since young. Amelia’s act of ignoring her only served to strengthen her disgust with Amelia. “Carter, I think you can just fire everyone else. We only need Amelia as our employee. She’s Oscar’s wife. Clinton Corporations is one of the city’s best companies. Who wouldn’t want to befriend Oscar?

She’s definitely our company’s best asset now.” Carter simply focused on driving, paying no attention to Jennifer. She was essentially talking to herself and got even more irritated. “Carter, can you reply me?” “You’re really noisy.” A mix of emotions flashed across Jennifer’s face. “Carter, you…” “Jennifer, you’re pretty. Many men will fall for your looks,” Carter suddenly said. Jennifer gave him a strange look. He continued, “But you’re not my type. I don’t like girls who pick on every little thing. I do like beautiful women, but I have my own definition of beauty.

Your appearance is beautiful, but other than that, nothing else is desirable.” That was a huge insult to any woman. It was equivalent to saying that Jennifer does not have any inner beauty. Her only function was to stand around and look pretty. That was perhaps a compliment to ladies who place a lot of importance on their looks. However, for Jennifer, this was an insult. She had a good family background, good looks, and graduated from a top overseas university.
