Love You Enough To Leave You Chapter 445
Chapter 445 Love Triangle
The moment Amelia returned to the design department, Rory walked toward her and said, “Amelia, the
manager asked you to go to his office. He wants to talk to you.”
A sh of doubt appeared in Amelia’s eyes.
“Don’t be scared, Amelia. The manager isn’t the type to believe in rumors. Jamie’s the one who
fabricated everything, anyway. She only did that because the person backing her up has had some
conflicts with the manager. Please don’t misunderstand!” exined Rory quickly, having misinterpreted
the look on Amelia’s face.
When Amelia heard that, she burst outughing and assured, “I didn’t misunderstand, Rory. I’ll go now.
Talk to youter!”
Upon entering the office, Amelia asked politely, “Are you looking for me?”
The manager, who was sitting at the desk, immediately jumped to his feet, revealing his bulging
stomach.
“You’re Amelia, right?” The manager had just received a call from the CEO, asking whether there was
an employee named Amelia in his department. When he thought about it, he remembered that he had
asked Rory to recruit her. The CEO instructed him to treat Amelia nicely, saying that she came from a
formidable background. Since she was the wife of Clinton Corporations’ only heir, she must not be
offended. Not expecting such a powerful person to be working in his department, the manager was so
shocked that he broke out into cold sweat.
“Yes. May I know why you summoned me to your office?” asked Amelia, feeling a bit ufortable by
the middle-aged man’s intense stare.
The manager returned to his senses. A meaningful smile spread across his chubby cheeks as he said,
“Amelia, it’s thepany’s blessing that you are working for us. You’ve truly graced us with your
presence! Since the CEO isn’t here, I wee you to thepany on his behalf. I’m really happy! I
didn’t expect you to be so pretty too. Only the most outstanding and talented man is worthy of you.”
Amelia waspletely confused, unable to figure out why he was saying all that.
As if he could sense her confusion, the managerughed heartily. “I’m just spouting nonsense, Amelia.
Go back to your work. I’ll assign you to design some important blueprintster. I heard that you’re a
design major, so you are probably very skilled at designing blueprints. Do a good job as I have high
hopes for you. If you don’t like working in the design department, just tell me which other position
you’re interested in. There’s no need to stand on ceremony with me.”
Amelia’s expression turned gloomy as her suspicions toward Oscar grew. If he had not said anything to
thepany’s boss, the manager would not have been so submissive toward her.
“Sir, did someone say something to you?” Amelia asked tentatively to test the waters.
However, the manager replied calmly, “No! I heard that you have a good rtionship with Rory. She
mentioned to me that you’ve graduated from a renowned university and that you’re very talented.
That’s why I wish to treat you as an important asset. Don’t overthink and just focus on your work
instead. If you have any grievances, just tell me. If Jamie is getting too overboard, tell me too. I’ll raise it
up to the boss. Since you’re thepany’s lucky star, no one can protect her.”
Although Amelia was still confused, the manager dismissed her with a wave. “Return to work.
Remember to tell me about any grievances you face!”
Amelia had no choice but to leave.
When she returned to the design department, she could see her colleagues raising their heads and
shooting her a strange look.
Amelia could guess that they were wondering about her rtionship with the manager. She could not
help but sigh secretly.
No wonder people said that office politics is like a war. Anything minor that happens in the department
can be misconstrued in such a ridiculous manner! Gossips can arise out of absolutely nothing. If I want
to seed in the workce, I must be strong. Regardless of the rumors, I mustn’t be defeated.
Ignoring their gazes, Amelia returned to her seat and focused on her work.
Finally, it was six in the evening. After bidding Rory farewell, she left.
Oscar was already waiting in the car with Tony downstairs.
The moment she entered with her bag, Tony pounced at her. Hugging her tightly, he said in a sweet
voice, “I miss you, Mommy!”
Amelia hugged his chubby body and asked with a smile, “Did you behave at your grandma’s ce?”
“Yeah! I tried to make Grandmaugh, but she doesn’t seem to be in a good mood. She ignored me
most of the time,” admitted Tony honestly.
Amelia instinctively nced at Oscar.
“What’s wrong with your grandma, Tony?” she asked.
“I don’t know either. All I know is that Grandma doesn’t seem to like me anymore. I want to be close to
her, but she instructed the maid to take me away.” Tony felt rather upset as he spoke.
Amelia hugged him and consoled, “Perhaps she’s not feeling well today. It’s not true that she doesn’t
like you, Tony? You’re so adorable that she likes you a lot! How can she dislike ever you? Don’t
overthink.”
“Really?”
“Have I ever lied to you?”
Tony shook his head. The gloomy expression on his face faded and he stopped pouting.
He’s still a child.
As Amelia was hugging Tony, she did not ask Oscar how his talk with Olivia went. Instead, she kept
ying with Tony.
Oscar drove to a newly-opened restaurant. A valet quickly rushed forward to park the car for him.
When Oscar carried Tony, he tried to resist. However, Oscar whispered softly, “Your mommy’s still here.
If you kick up a fuss, she’ll be sad.”
Although Tony stopped struggling, he red at Oscar sulkily.

The moment the three of them entered the restaurant, Amelia spotted two familiar people standing
nearby. Facing Jennifer, Carter had his back against Amelia. Their gestures were very agitated as if
they were in the middle of a huge argument.
Jennifer’s furious voice sounded. “Carter, do you hate me this much? We’re already here! Why are you
so reluctant to enjoy a meal with me?”
“Stop kicking up a fuss, Jennifer. Something urgent came up in the office, so I need to rush over. Just
eat alone and I’ll settle the bill,” replied Carter exasperatedly.
“You’re too much, Carter.” Jennifer’s voice broke, making her sound like she was on the verge of tears.
Amelia nced at Oscar, asking him silently if they should go over.
Before they could walk over, Jennifer lifted her hand and pped Carter across the cheek, the crisp
sound echoing across the lobby. The passers-by stopped in their tracks and stared at both of them
curiously.
Carter could have dodged the p. However, he did not for some reason. His head turned to the left
because of Jennifer’s p.
Just by hearing the sound, Amelia could almost feel the searing pain on Carter’s cheek.
Tony gazed at Amelia in confusion and asked, “Mommy, why is Ms. Larson hitting Mr. Scott?”
Since Tony’s voice was quite loud, Carter and Jennifer looked over.
When Carter spotted Amelia standing not far away, the look in his eyes changed instantly. He raised
his hand and wiped the cheek that had been pped by Jennifer, trying to erase the swollen marks on
his cheek.
Jennifer was already at the peak of her fury. When she noticed his reaction, her eyes reddened. She
shot Amelia aplex look before bursting into tears. Covering her mouth with a hand, she eximed,
“You’re too much, Carter! The woman you’ve been yearning for already has a husband and a son!
There are already two people by her side who love her dearly! However, all you can see is her. Why
can’t you just look at me seriously too?”
Due to Amelia’s sudden appearance, a flustered look shed across Carter’s eyes.
“Stop messing around, Jennifer!” chided Carter softly. He was afraid that Amelia would misunderstand
because of this.
Jennifer could not help butugh and cry at the same time as she red at Carter. Sorrow washed
over her. “Carter, I really think that your heart is made of stone. Nothing can ever melt it. Even a cactus
might bloom one day if I watered it religiously. However, you show no signs of falling in love with me.
Sometimes, I wonder if I’m really that horrible. Otherwise, why would you refuse to even spare me a
proper nce?”
Carter raised his hand, wanting to wipe her tears away, but he put it down halfway.
He said apologetically, “I’m sorry.”
He was apologizing for being unable to fall in love with her after two years.
Amelia said, “Oscar, let’s go over.”
Oscar nodded.
When they walked over, Amelia greeted timidly, “What a coincidence to bump into you here, Carter and
Ms. Larson.”
Jennifer, who had yet to wipe her tears away, red at her and demanded, “Are you satisfied now,
Amelia? Looking at how pathetic I am, are you secretly mocking me for being shameless? Even though
I’ve pursued him for two years, he only loves you. You must feel very smug, right?”
Amelia smiled bitterly. Even though she did not wish to meddle with Carter and Jennifer’splicated
rtionship, she always ended up involved in them. What kind of twisted fate is this? Why am I always
dragged into this mess?
“You’ve misunderstood, Ms. Larson. I’ve never found it embarrassing for a woman to pursue a man.
Everyone has a right to chase after love regardless of gender.” Amelia looked at Jennifer and said
seriously, “Ms. Larson, you can try speaking to Carter calmly. There’s no need to argue in public. Why
don’t we book a private room? Both of you can have a proper discussion inside.”
Jennifer scoffed coldly.
“Stop putting up a show and pretending to be kind. Every time you bump into me, I’m being pathetically
cast aside by Carter. I really wish that I’ll never see you ever again!” spat Jennifer through gritted teeth.
Not knowing how else to exin herself, Amelia felt overwhelmed by a feeling of exasperation.
