Love You Enough to Leave You 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.

She could easily find any high-paying job she wanted. Yet, she decided to join Carter’s average
company as a mere director of design. Never mind if Carter did not appreciate it, but he was now
saying that her only merit was her good looks. Jennifer could not tolerate this. “Carter Scott, don’t take



this too far. Don’t you know how many deals I’ve closed for you since I joined your company? My
upbringing and education are excellent, and my work skills are also good.

I can help your company improve tremendously in only a short amount of time.” There was truth in her
words. She was eloquent, beautiful, and had strong abilities as an excellent public relations personnel.
Carter nodded. “I’m thankful that you helped the company to secure many deals. Indeed, the company
has become more profitable since you entered. However, you can’t just attack others because of this. If
you think you’re above the rest of my employees and can’t learn to work with them, I’ll have to ask you
to leave.”

Jennifer looked at him incredulously. “You want to fire me? Just because of this woman?” Carter
glanced at Amelia subconsciously, then denied it. “This has nothing to do with Amelia.” “If it has nothing
to do with her, then tell me, what did I do wrong? I’ve been getting along well with everyone else since I
joined your company. No one has complained about me at all. If you’re going to fire me without giving
me a reason, I’ll go tell Mrs. Scott.”

Carter pressed his lips together. Just then, Amelia pointed outside the window and said, “Mr. Scott, you
can let me off here. I need to go buy something. I’ll go back to the company myself later.” Carter
stopped the car and asked, “What do you want to buy? I’ll go with you.” “It’s fine. You can send Ms.
Larson back first. I’ll head back by myself later,” said Amelia as she unbuckled her seatbelt. Carter then
unfastened his seatbelt and said, “I’ll just go with you.

You’re pregnant, so if there’s something heavy, I can help you carry it.” He then turned to Jennifer.
“Jennifer, drive the car back first. I’ll take a cab with Amelia later.” Jennifer was furious. “Carter, don’t
cross the line. Back then, it was the Scotts who requested a marriage of convenience with the Larsons.
If your mother hadn’t said that you had no partner, my family would never have rushed back from
overseas, and I wouldn’t be here lowering myself for you right now.”



Carter replied, “Since it was my family who said it, you can go marry them. I’ve never said such a
thing.” He then got off the car. Amelia, who had already alighted, shook her head at them. Jennifer was
too irrational. Although she was very capable at work, her emotional intelligence was close to zero. She
was acting as if she were Carter’s girlfriend even though they had no relationship. She tries to control
everything around Carter and even gets unreasonably jealous.

No man would be able to stand such a domineering woman. If a man loves a woman, he would love
even the bad parts about her. However, if he doesn’t love her, regardless of how good her personality
was, he would always find something to dislike. Jennifer then rushed out of the car and stood in front of
Carter. “What do you mean by this? Don’t forget that our parents have already agreed on our
engagement and will spread the news soon.

Now, you’re telling me to go marry your parents. What are you trying to say?” Carter moved to block
Amelia from Jennifer’s view, then replied coldly, “What engagement? Why haven’t I heard of it?”
Jennifer’s eyes flicked in anger. Carter continued, “Jennifer, I only treat you as my younger sister. I’m
okay with being your friend, but I’ll never marry you.” Jennifer looked upset. “Carter, do you really hate
me so much?”

Carter frowned. His frustrations had long been growing, but since he was in public, he endured his
anger and said, “Jennifer, let’s talk about it when we get back.” However, Jennifer was stubborn. “I want
an answer today. Tell me. Are you breaking off our engagement because of this woman?”

When she said that, the onlookers looked at Amelia weirdly. Carter frowned. “Jennifer, this is our
problem, don’t drag innocent people in. Amelia and I are just friends. Even without her, I’d never fall for
you. You’re pretty, have a good family and education, and you’re very good at work.

I’m sure many other men are interested in you. Stop bothering me. Otherwise, we can’t even be
friends.” Jennifer laughed coldly. “You are the only person I will ever like. I rarely fall for a man, and



both our families also approve of us being together. You must marry me. I won’t accept anything else.”
Disregarding Carter, even Amelia had started to frown upon hearing that.
