Love You Enough To Leave You Chapter 152
Chapter 152,Love You Enough to Leave You
“Ah, you’re our boss’ friends. Pleasee on in!” Those in the security firm were weing as they
led Amelia and Tiffany into the firm and brought them chairs. “Zach, fetch thedies some tea. Make
sure it’s not too hot.” Zach quickly headed to the pantry. In no time, he was back with two cups of tea.
Within a minute, the coffee table was full of snacks and drinks. Amelia and Tiffany were overwhelmed
by their hospitality. Thetter stuttered, “T-The p-people here are very weing.” One of the
employees said, “Well, this is a special treatment for beautifuldies.”
In other words, they wouldn’t treat them with such hospitality if they weren’t beautiful. Tiffany let out a
dryugh. Amelia was confused when the guys had their eyes fixated on her curiously. One of them
spoke up, “Hi, you must be Gary’s wife. You’re so beautiful; no wonder Gary never let us meet you. He
always tells us that he is not married, but everyone could tell that it’s a lie. Otherwise, he wouldn’t leave
the office on time every day. We even teased him, saying that he is secretly married. Now we know
why he hides you from us; you’re gorgeous even when you’re pregnant.” Amelia felt a little awkward by
their overwhelming hospitality. Unlike any other dreary office setting, a loving and harmonious
atmosphere surrounded Gary’s security firm.
The employees felt like a big family. With a polite smile, Amelia responded, “Actually, I only met your
boss yesterday. We are here looking to hiring bodyguards.” Tiffany shielded Amelia while she jokingly
said, “Gentlemen, Amelia is seven months pregnant now. I’ll call the cops if you guys scare this
pregnantdy with your overwhelming hospitality.” The guys were visibly disappointed. “So, you’re not
Gary’s wife?” Amelia shook her head. Seeing that, the guys howled in disappointment. “Aw, we thought
Gary has finally acquired a good taste in women that he found herself a beautiful wife. It turns out
you’re someone else’s wife.” Knowing that Amelia was not Gary’s wife, they shifted their gaze to
Tiffany. “Do you know Gary?
Are you his girlfriend? You look pretty. We will be more than happy if you are to marry our boss.” This
time, it was Tiffany feeling awkward. “Gary and I are just friends. I’m afraid I will have to disappoint
you.” “You’re married?” “Do you already have a boyfriend?” “Do you mind if I ask how old are you?” …
When Gary showed up, he saw his male employees surrounding thedies, bombarding them with
questions. Although he was an airy person with a casual attitude, he couldn’t help feeling embarrassed
by his employers’ silly behavior. He roared, “Hey, shouldn’t you guys be working? All of you are a
member of the security firm, not bandits.” The employees instantly made way for Gary.
Then, they bowed ny degrees at himically and greeted, “Good day, Mr. Laird!” Gary was
seething as he scolded, “You cheeky rascals! Stop fooling around in the office. No one will hire
bodyguards from ourpany if they see you guys behaving like this.” One of the employees
reminded, “Gary, may I remind you that thedies are still here. You wouldn’t want to scare them off
with your loud voice.” That was when Gary remembered that Amelia and Tiffany were in the office. His
face flushed in embarrassment upon realizing that his glorious image was ruined in front of thedies.
At that moment, he couldn’t help but feel self-conscious. It was the first time the employers saw their
boss behaving like a demure youngdy. They teased, “Gary, are you feeling shy? What a shocker!
Come everyone, have a look at the shy Gary.” Gary shot them a fierce stare and dismissed them.
“That’s it. Now, return to your work. Those who are hungry can order some food. After the lunch break,
please gather around in the meeting room. Ms. Amelia and Ms. Tiffany are looking to hire one or two
bodyguards. For those who are chosen, do your best to protect them, or all of you will not get your
year-end bonuses.
Don’t embarrass me or ruin the reputation of our firm!” With a teasing smile, the guys made an
equivocal remark, “We won’t embarrass you in front of thedies, Mr. Laird.” To them, Gary was self-
conscious in front of thedies because he had a crush on Tiffany. Once again, Gary’s face flushed. He
was enraged at their teasing. “Get back to work. You have ruined the firm’s image. If you guys continue
horsing around, I will reduce your perfect-attendance rewards.” Yet, the employees were not deterred.
“Gary, you’re blushing! Since Ms. Amelia is married, it looks like Ms. Tiffany is the one who is going to
be our boss’ potential wife.
Gary, go for it! We willugh at you if you can’t make Ms. Tiffany your girlfriend.” With that, they
reflexively dodged a kick sent by their boss. Gary gave them the final warning. “That’s it! Stop messing
around! Or else, not only will I cancel your perfect attendance rewards, but your year-end bonuses as
well.” The employees called out, “Gary is angry, and he is trying to hide his shyness!” The next
moment, they unanimously fled the scene before their boss gave them a good beating. Gary rubbed
the back of his head awkwardly. He managed to cate a calm facade as he turned to face thedies.
“The boys didn’t scare you, did they?” Both Amelia and Tiffany shook their heads. With a gentle smile,
Amelia said, “The working culture in your firm is great.
There’s a positive and happy vibe in the office. I can tell that you’re a great boss.” Gary felt nervous
when Amelia was talking to him. She looked even more beautiful in the bright officepared to when
he saw her yesterday night. His heart was thumping wildly in his chest. Yesterday night, he could still
grip hisposure when talking with her. Yet, at that moment, he felt as if all his inner thoughts were
laid bare. The adrenaline rush caused the man to start gabbling, “When I first started thispany, I
didn’t really treat it as a job; it was more like a pastime. As we put in more effort, energy, and time into
running thepany, I started to take it more seriously. As thepany developed, we hired more and
more employees.
Well, most of our employees are male employees and the minority, female. Regardless of gender, they
get along with each other very well. The female employees became udylike after spending much
time with the boys, in the sense that they would joke and curse with them. The boys haven’t met such
beautifuldies in a long time, and that’s the reason for their overwhelming hospitality. I hope they
didn’t scare you.” Tiffany gazed at him quizzically while asking, “Gary, are you nervous?” Gary flushed
scarlet. Fortunately, it wasn’t obvious on his tanned skin. “No. Why would I be nervous?” He chuckled
dryly and dared not to look in Amelia’s direction. “It’s almost half-past eleven now.
Let me treat you guys to lunch. We cane back and choose your bodyguards after that.” Tiffany
asked Amelia, “Babe, are you hungry yet?” She was not hungry since they had just had their breakfast
an hour ago. Amelia thought about it for a while and eventually agreed with Gary’s proposal out of
courtesy. Gary couldn’t help curling his lips into a smile. He stood up, unconsciously casting his eyes at
Amelia as he asked, “Amelia, do you like spicy food?” Amelia was slightly bewildered. As a woman, her
sixth sense told her that Gary’s care for her had exceeded ordinary bounds. As if he, too, had realized
that his question was rather bizarre, Gary quickly exined, “Well, I’m only asking to see if you can eat
spicy food.
If yes, then we can eat Thymions food. If you can’t eat spicy food, then perhaps we can eat something
else.” Amelia was still holding a smile, yet her gaze grew aloof and distant. Just then, Tiffany chimed in
eagerly, “Gary, you’re ying favorites! Why didn’t you ask me whether I can eat spicy food?” Gary
was relieved when Tiffany took the heat off him. He let out a heartyugh and exined himself,
“Amelia is pregnant, so it’s normal for me to ask her first. As you know, we need to be extremely careful
when ites to the diet of a pregnantdy.”
Hearing that, the aloofness in Amelia’s eyes faded. Tiffany gave the man a thumbs up. “Gary, you’re
indeed a good husband material. Whoever gets to marry you is definitely the luckiest woman on earth.”
Subconsciously, Gary once again nced at Amelia. Having noticed that, Tiffany jokingly said on
purpose, “Gary, I know our dear Amelia is beautiful and that she’s your type, but she’s taken. You can
retrieve your gaze now.” Gary awkwardly rustled his hair. Then, he cleared his throat and said, “If you
guys can eat spicy food, I know an authentic Thymions restaurant.
I can call the restaurant owner now.” Tiffany halted him. “Amelia had an upset stomach for the past few
days, and she can’t eat spicy food. Gary, perhaps we can eat something light?” Hearing that, Gary
asked worriedly, “An upset stomach? I know a few gastroenterologists. Do you need me to make an
appointment for you?” Both Amelia and Tiffany simultaneously raised their brow, looking at him
strangely. As usual, Gary used his customary heartyugh to hide his genuine thoughts. “Well, isn’t
Amelia pregnant right now? I’m worried that it might affect the baby.” Amelia said smilingly, “It’s nothing
serious. The doctor said I will be fine as long as I take a healthy diet and prevent eating spicy food.”
“We’ll eat something light then. I’ll call to reserve a table.” The three of them left the office in Gary’s car.
Sitting behind the wheels, Gary called and reserved them a private room. Half an hourter, they
arrived at their destination—a restaurant with vintage decoration. After unbuckling his seat belt, Gary
uttered, “This is my friend’s restaurant. If you guys want to eat here in the future, you can drop my
name and have your bills waived.” Hearing that, Tiffany yfully said, “I’m afraid your friend might go
bankrupt.” Gary generously reassured them, “Well, I’m one of the shareholders of the restaurant. I have
enough money to treat you guys.” Tiffany’s eyes grew wide upon hearing that.
“Gary, you sure know how to keep a low profile. Not only do you own a huge security firm, but you’ve
even invested in the food and beverage industry. I never thought I would encounter a wealthy man
while having supper. If I were a gold digger, I would throw myself at you and secure myself a sugar
daddy.” Gary said nothing but smiled in response. As soon as they entered the restaurant, a hostess
came up and bowed at them. “Gary, pleasee with me. The private room is ready, and we have had
the chefs prepare a nutritious meal for the pregnant woman.”
Gary nodded as the hostess conducted them to the private room. In the private room, he asked,
“Where’s your boss?” The hostess politely replied, “Our boss traveled to Saspiuburg yesterday, and he
will return in two or three days. You can give him a call if it’s something urgent.” Gary nodded in
response. Then, he handed the menus to thedies. “Amelia, Tiffany, feel free to order anything you
like. I don’t need to pay when I eat here.” Tiffany ordered three dishes while Amelia randomly picked
one from the menu that looked appetizing.
It would be a waste if they ordered too much. Also, they were not that hungry since they had just had
breakfast. Gary, on the other hand, ordered two dishes. He handed over the menus to the hostess and
ordered, “Please get the chefs to hurry with the food for the pregnant woman.” “All right. The dishes willThis belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.
be served soon.” With that, the hostess left the private room. Meanwhile, Gary discreetly nced at
Amelia before he asked, “So, who is the one hiring the bodyguards?”
