Love You Enough To Leave You Chapter 136
Chapter 136,Love You Enough to Leave You
Amelia was shocked to hear such an unreserved answer from Derrick, but she agreed nheless.
“Sure. We’ll see you in the evening.” Amelia fell into deep thoughts after she hung up. She still could
not get her head around what was happening. Judging from the man’s mannerisms, he was not as bad
as Tiffany said he was. Besides, he clearly sounded like a young man. He must be a rich and
sessful man, but Tiffany painted a direct opposite picture. Amelia did not know if she shouldugh
at what her friend made him up to be. When Tiffany finally came home, Amelia was looking at her
phone. “Hey, Babe, I’m back. You shouldn’t spend so much time on your phone. It’s not good for the
baby,” she said.
“Mr. Hisson called just now, so I picked up.” Amelia’s words struck Tiffany like a lightning bolt. Her hand
froze for a while as she put the food on the table. She gave off a rigidugh and tried to sound natural.
“Did he say anything?” Amelia continued looking at her phone as a subtle smile yed across her lips.
“Tiff, it seems like you’re hiding a lot of things from me, aren’t you? Don’t you think you owe me an
exnation?” Tiffany arranged the food on the table and tried to y dumb. “I don’t understand what
you’re saying, Babe.” The smile on Amelia’s face slowly faded as she locked her gaze at Tiffany.
Tiffany really did not like her behaving like this. “Babe, stop doing this to me. You know I really can’t
take you looking at me like this.
I’ll tell you everything, okay?” Amelia crossed her arms. “You’d bettere clean this time. We’ve been
friends for so many years. It’s not like I’ll do anything to harm you.” “Alright. Let’s eat first. I bought
some of your favorite snacks. I’ll go grocery shoppingter. I’ll make you some chicken soupter.
You’re too thin for your own good. Your baby is already seven-month-old and your limbs are still so
skinny.” “Don’t change the topic,” Amelia warned as she ate away. Tiffany took some food herself and
mumbled as she munched, “Babe, I didn’t.” “From your boss’ voice, I can tell he’s our age.
His voice is so maic, so I guess he must be an attractive man. But someone clearly said he was
short, fat, and ugly. You should at least do him some justice,” Amelia said. Tiffany choked and coughed
furiously when she heard her. Amelia quickly got her a ss of water and passed her some tissue
before patting her on the back. “You okay?” Tiffany took a sip of water and waved her hand lightly. “I’m
fine. I was just shocked.” “There must be something going on between the two of you. Tell me, how
long has this been going on?” Amelia interrogated. Tiffany broke out in a fit of an uncontroble cough
again. She stared at her friend and cried out, “Babe! Can you stop doing that to me?”
Amelia shrugged and shot her a cheeky grin. “Alright, I’ll stop, but you’ll have to tell me everything. Are
you guys still at first base? Or second, or third?” Tiffany rolled her eyes at Amelia. “Babe, how did I not
realize you’re actually that nosy. Did something get into you today? Or have you been hiding this side
of you all this while?” “This is my true self. I’m just so curious about other people’s lives,” Amelia replied
wittily, blinking her eyes at her. “Oh, by the way, I’ve already made an appointment with him. We’re
meeting him at six. We need to talk about your contract. And of course, I need to see for myself this
man who stole your heart away. There must be something special about him that attracts you.
You’repletely immune to handsome men like Oscar and Carter.” Tiffany’s food fell from her mouth
onto her te as she stared at Amelia. “Are you kidding me, Babe?” “He called just now, and I’ve
already promised him. He’s your superior, so it’s not like we can back out, right?” Babe, I didn’t know
you’re this cunning. Tiffany could not believe this was the Amelia she knew. “Why not we skip grocery
shopping. We’ll eat out for dinner instead. I really want to meet him,” Amelia insisted. “Babe, there’s
really nothing going on between us. Our rtionship is purely professional. Don’t you think it’s too
much to meet him privately after work?” Tiffany asked. “Even if there’s really nothing between you two,
you still have to meet him to talk about work.

If he’s really canceling your contract because of the Yards, I’ll talk to him as a Clinton. I’ll let him know
that you have me as your backing.” Tiffany was moved by Amelia’s words. “Babe, don’t get all cheesy
with me. I’ll me it on you if you make me cry.” “Finish up. We’ll go for a good meal tonight. After all,
it’s his treat. We should just go,” Amelia said, passing her some food. Tiffany thought about it and
finally nodded. “Tiff, if you really like him, you should let him know,” Amelia suggested. But on second
thought, she changed her mind. “Fine. Let’s just wait for him to take action.
The fact that he called you means he doesn’t see you just as his employee. He’s a busy man. He
doesn’t need to waste his time and energy on a mere author like you.” “I’m not sure if I should take this
as apliment, Babe.” Amelia raised her brows and blinked her eyes slowly as if she expected
Tiffany to know what she really meant. “Babe, you’ll know we’re not of the same world when you see
him. He’s prince charming in a fairy tale whom every girl dream of. He’s perfect, handsome, sessful
and hees from a good family. Yes, I’m an independent woman who’s able to fend for myself, but
I’m still a Cindere in everyone’s eyes.
There’s no way two of us cane to the same level,” Tiffany said with a solemn look on her face. It
pained Amelia to see her like this. She patted Tiffany on the head andforted her. “Since when did
the Tiffany I know became so doubtful of herself? You’re the one who told me that we are people who
work hard and can afford to enjoy the fruits of ourbor. You said we should feel proud of ourselves
instead of feeling inferior. Have you forgotten what you said?” “Babe, I told you not to make me cry. It
was just adrenaline at y when I saw him. That’s why I was all flustered. Don’t worry, I know how to
deal with rtionships. I won’t invest too much in a rtionship I know won’te to fruition.
I won’t get myself hurt. Besides, we’ve agreed to take care of your baby together.” Amelia smiled and
said no more, but she was beginning to worry about Tiffany. Love was not something you could just
brush aside when it came knocking, else there would not be any unrequited lovers. Many could not
help but fall in love, and they only sunk deeper when they struggled to break themselves free. Tiffany
might be loud and unrestrained sometimes, and she might even be an avid believer of singlehood, but
she still had that desire for love in her bones.
The fact that she was a romance novel writer showed that she had a longing for love, but she was
aware of the harsh reality at the same time. On one hand, she was dreaming about meeting her prince
charming; on the other, but her dream was suppressed by reality. Hence, Amelia really was not sure
how these two conflicting forces would affect Tiffany when she finally met her Mr. Right. When the clock
almost struck six, Amelia sent Derrick a text and told him the ce she and Tiffany chose. A terse reply
darted back swiftly. “Sure. See you in thirty minutes.” Tiffany nced at his message and pursed her
lips. “Seriously, all the sessful people behave the same way. He’s just like your husband.”
Amelia smiled without saying a word. The two women changed into something simple and went
downstairs together. After they got into Tiffany’s car, she fastened the seatbelt for Amelia and lowered
her head toward her baby bump. “Sweetheart, we’re going for a nice meal now. Is there anything you’d
like to eat? Let Mommy know if what you want, and I’ll get it for you. You’re the boss here, and your
momes second. I’m here to serve both of you,” Tiffany said cheekily. “You should just start the car,”
Amelia said, shaking her head. Tiffany sat back in her seat and put on her own seatbelt.
“Sweetheart, I’m driving now. I’ll bring you to a ce with all the nice food.” Amelia looked at her from
the side as she drove. “Tiff, you should have a child yourself if you really like kids. You’re a good catch,
so you should consider getting into a rtionship if you meet someone who’s interested in you. Don’t
just bury yourself in your books all the time.” “Stop it, Babe. I just want to earn a lot of money for you
and Sweetheart. It’s not like I hope you’ll get a divorce though. I’m just preparing for rainy days. I
always believe that we women should set aside some money for ourselves, only then we’ll be able to
live their life to the fullest even without men.
Money is the only thing that won’t betray us in our lives. We can’t even say for sure if our family will turn
their backs on us.” A frown appeared on Amelia’s brows. “I don’t agree though.” “Alright, fine. I
shouldn’t have said that. But it’s really all adrenaline talking when I called and told you that I’ve fallen in
love. I wasn’t thinking clearly back then and I said something irrational. Don’t take me seriously. He and
I don’te from the same world. You’d better not get too enthusiastic about shipping us when you
see him.” Amelia’s lips curved in an ambiguous smile as she nced at her. “Tiff, why do you have to
exin your rtionship with him over and over again? Is there something necessary, to begin with?”
Tiffany quickly shut up. It was times like this that made her think it was not entirely a good thing to have
a friend who was too smart. “Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. I know what I should and shouldn’t do.
I won’t interfere with your rtionship, just like how you never got yourself involved in my marriage. I’ll
support you whether or not you enter into a rtionship with him.” Her words tugged at Tiffany’s
heartstrings as they exchanged understanding looks. It only took one nce for them to know what
was on the other person’s mind. They agreed to meet at a Chanaean restaurant.
The waiters and waitresses all looked impable in traditional clothing. When they saw Amelia and
Tiffanying in, one of them hurried over and smiled politely. “Mrs. Clinton?” Amelia nodded. “We’ve
prepared a private dining room for you. Over here,” the waitress said. The two women followed her up
to the second floor and took a right turn before walking down a corridor. The waitress opened the door
before them and gestured at them to enter.
“There’s another friending overter. We’ll order when he’s here,” Amelia said after both of them
were seated. “Sure. I’lle back againter then,” the waitress said. After she was gone, Tiffany
started surveying the ssically decorated private room. “I really like the vintage ambiance. It’s so
elegant. This is a good ce to dine. Have you been here before? They’re really polite to you.” “Yeah. I
have been here with Oscar a few times. He even told the boss that I’m his wife.”
