Love You Enough to Leave You Chapter 74

For some people, no matter how good you are to her, she will not appreciate it.

After Jennifer returned to the office with Carter, Carter accused, “Jennifer, what‘s your agenda?”

Jennifer‘s eyes were red, but she tried to act arrogantly. “I have no agenda. I just want to declare in front
of everyone that I am your girlfriend and that we‘ll be engaged soon. What‘s wrong with what I say?”

Carter was pissed and amused at the same time. He had never seen a weirdo like Jennifer. She was rat
her relentless, shameless, and stuck to him like a piece of gum on his shoe.

“Jennifer, don‘t you feel shameless about yourself?” Carter provoked.



Jennifer also sat on the sofa. “You will soon be my fiancé, and I am not wrong, so why should I be?”

Carter scowled. “Jennifer, I don‘t like you. You are not my girlfriend. You will only annoy me more like
this. You are young, attractive, and capable. Why bother with me? I don‘t think I have done anything to
make you misunderstand my feelings for you.”



Jennifer answered, “You also admit that I am young, attractive, and capable. So, which part of me is it th
at you don‘t like? Tell me, and I will change it.”

Carter could feel a faint throbbing on his forehead. “Jennifer, stop messing around, would you?”

“Carter, I really love you. Although we have not known each other for a long time, I had heard your name
from my parents and seen your
photos. You are my ideal Prince Charming. So when Mrs. Yard proposed to arrange a marriage for me, I



persuaded my parents to come back here just to see you. For you, I am willing to be merely a director of
design. I can even use my own contacts to market your

company. Can‘t you feel my sincerity?”

Carter rubbed his bulging temples.

“Carter, are you unwell?” Jennifer noticed his discomfort.

“Jennifer, I know you are very kind to me, and I am very grateful that you can come to work in my compa
ny. But the engagement is another matter. It is impossible for anything to happen between you and me. B
ut if you are willing, I will treat you like a sister.“

Jennifer clenched her fist in dismay.

She stared at Carter aggrievedly. “Why exactly is Amelia better than me?”

Carter confessed truthfully, “You are better than her in all aspects. But you are not her, so I can‘t have fee
lings for you. The place in my heart is already taken. I am sorry.”

Jennifer abruptly stood up, strolled to the desk, and leaned forward with her hands on the desk. Her sexy
figure could make any man‘s nose bleed.

However, Carter just glanced at it for a second and then subconsciously looked away a sec

Jennifer noticed the waver in his eyes. She smiled coquettishly and then unbuttoned two buttons on her
shirt, revealing her bosom, making her appear even more seductive.

“Carter, you‘re
obviously having reactions to my body. Why don‘t you admit it? As long as you want, you can have me a
nd everything I have.”



His whole face darkened towards her attitude. He bellowed in a frustrated tone. “Button up your clothes.”

Not only did Jennifer not obey, she boldly went around the desk
to sit on Carter‘s thighs but was pushed away by Carter unexpectedly. He commanded coldly, “Dress up.
Don‘t make me disrespect you.”

Jennifer‘s eyes turned red again. She felt ashamed, bitter, and annoyed when she met Carter‘s unsentim
ental eyes. She was the princess of superior family background and had never been treated by men like
this.

Now, she had even resorted to seducing but was wholly rejected.

Jennifer wept, “Carter, do you really hate me this much?”

“Carter, no matter what, it was your family who arranged the marriage. Mrs. Yard also said that we shoul
d be engaged. So even if you don‘t want to, it‘s gonna happen.”

Carter responded angrily, “You are simply unreasonable.”

“I become unreasonable because of you. I have never liked someone so much. You are the only man I h
ave ever fallen for. No matter what, you have to be responsible for me.”

Carter was so cross that an unnatural bout of laughter escaped his throat. He pointed to the door and sta
ted firmly. “Get out. I will talk to my parents about the engagement. No one can force me to do things that
I don‘t want to.”

Jennifer glanced deeply at him, then turned and stalked out.

In the evening, Carter received a call
from Mrs. Scott, asking him to take Jennifer back to the house. He knew that it was unavoidable, so he c
alled Jennifer, and they went together to his house.



The Larson couple were also there. Jennifer and Carter entered the hall together, and Jennifer greeted e
veryone politely. She then sat submissively in front of the elders.

In front of the elders, Jennifer looked like an obedient girl, well behaved, and always spoke softly.

Carter has never seen a woman who can act so professionally without revealing any trace of a lie.

He even thought that she should as well pursue an acting career.

Mrs. Scott was obviously delighted with her. “Jennifer, how are you doing in Carter‘s company?”

Jennifer replied sweetly, “It is perfect. The colleagues in the company are nice to
me, and they all took extra care of me. I am thrilled to be able to work there.”

Mrs. Scott became even more satisfied after hearing her answer. “Carter, Jennifer works in your compan
y. You should care for her more, understand?”

Carter nodded without any expressions.

Despite the warm atmosphere, he suddenly dropped a surprising statement. “Mom, I already have some
one I like, and I will bring her home for you to see soon.”

After that sentence came out, everyone‘s face shifted tensed.

“What‘s going on?” Mrs. Larson‘s expression darkened. “Mrs. Scott, you have to give me an explanation.
In the beginning, you were the one who said you wanted to have an alliance with the Larsons via marria
ge. That‘s why we brought Jennifer back here.”

Mrs. Scott smiled and comforted, “Don‘t worry, Carter is just joking.” After that, she stared intensely at Ca
rter. “Carter, don‘t make this kind of joke in front of Mrs. Larson.”



Carter affirmed earnestly. “Mom, I
do have a woman I like. I will bring her back to you after a while, and what marriage are you talking about
? Why don‘t I know about

it?”

Now, Mrs. Scott‘s face became very unpleasant.

“Son, if you repeat this, I‘ll get mad. I had finally persuaded the Larsons family to come back from abroad
to discuss the marriage between you and Jennifer. But now you get all cranky. Do you want to piss off
your mother?”

Carter glanced at Mrs. Scott. “Mom, I am almost 30, and I think I can decide my own marriage. You looke
d for a bride for me without my consent. Mom, if you still treat me as your son, you should respect me.”

Mrs. Scott said, “Carter, how dare you blame your mother! I don‘t care. Jennifer is the girl I like. She is th
e only one who can be the daughter–in–
law of our family. If you disagree, don‘t call me your mother anymore.”

Carter‘s expression shifted again. He rose from the sofa. “Mom, you are mad and irrational now. I will go
upstairs and talk to Granddad. Let‘s discuss later.”

UPSlus de

After speaking, Carter was about to go upstairs but was stopped by Mrs. Scott.

“Carter, sit back down.” Mrs. Scott uttered with an uncompromising attitude. Carter had no choice but to r
eturn to his seat.

“Carter, since you already know everything, then I will be honest with you. Our family intends to
have a marriage alliance with the Larsons. You have met Jennifer.



Her family background, appearance, and education are the perfect match for your status. The power of t
he Larsons is comparable to that of our family. Jennifer is a perfect girl with such excellent conditions. W
hat else can you ask for?”

Carter glanced at Mrs. Scott and murmured, “Mom, I know that Jennifer is excellent. Surely there will be
countless men who are interested in her, but I‘m not interested.”

Mrs. Larson could not hold back her anger anymore. “Carter, I thought you were a gentle and mature kid,

Carter stood up and bowed solemnly towards Mrs. Larson. “Mrs. Clinton, I am truly sorry. My mother talke
for Jennifer. I can‘t marry a woman I don‘t love even if she is excellent.”

The Larsons‘ face had grown awfully outraged.

“Carter, what do you mean by this?” Mrs. Larson accused.

Carter bowed again. “Mrs. Clinton, I‘m genuinely sorry, but I really can‘t marry Jennifer. I already have a w

Mrs. Larson abruptly stood up and
held Jennifer‘s hand. “Jennifer, let‘s go. The threshold of the Scotts is too high. We‘re apparently not fit to

Jennifer took Mrs. Larson‘s hand and pleaded, “Mom, Carter‘s behaving like
this because he had a little conflict with me. Don‘t be offended. He was just expressing his temper.”

Mrs. Larson obviously didn‘t believe it. “Really?”

Jennifer nodded right away.

Mrs. Larson sat back and resumed her calmness. “Carter, it is normal for young people
to have conflict. But you can‘t use your engagement as a way to vent your anger. I have already discusse

Mrs. Scott avoided his eyes.

Carter rose again. “Mom, I‘ll go upstairs now. I hope you can respect me more. If you don‘t want things to

Carter could not believe his own mother‘s stubbornness.

Mrs. Scott was shivering all
over, with mixed emotions of rage and fear. She repeated, “Carter, I am doing this for your own good.”

Carter looked back at her with complex emotions. “Mom, I‘ll go upstairs to see Granddad.” Carter bypasse
