Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 703

After Jennifer left the restaurant, she did not immediately head back to her office. Instead, she simply chose to walk around while carrying her designer bag. She stared at the cars bustling about on the main road as she seemed a little dazed.

A car suddenly stopped in front of her. The window was wound down to reveal Amelia's face.

“What a coincidence, Ms. Larson. Would you like a ride?” Amelia offered politely.

Jennifer stared at the woman in the car as she started to feel conflicted. Every single tragedy that had been brought upon her was caused by Amelia.

Therefore, she instantly rejected, “No need for that.”

Upon speaking, she continued walking ahead.

Amelia shut the window and turned to look at Jolin, who was driving. “I'll get out for a moment.”

“Mrs. Clinton, it's obvious that she doesn't like you. There's no need for you to be so friendly to a person who wants nothing to do with you,” Jolin replied as he looked at Jennifer's silhouette through the car windows.

“Drive the car and meet me at the front. I just want to chat with her for a while.” Dismissing Jolin's advice, Amelia opened the door and got out of the vehicle. Having no other choice, Jolin could only drive next to her at the speed of a snail. He was afraid that Jennifer would harm Amelia, who only had

good intentions. If that were to happen, she would make sure that Jennifer would not be let off the hook that easily.

Amelia chased after Jennifer. “Ms. Larson, I would like to chat with you. Is that all right?”

Jennifer turned around and stared at Amelia frostily. With a sneer, she replied, “I don't think you and I have much to talk about, Amelia.”

“I just want to talk to you about Carter. Are you free right now?”

“Are you really that pretentious, Amelia? Because of his love for you, Carter basically ignored me during the two years that I spent pursuing him. He did not even spare me a glance. I don't think there is anything to talk about when it comes to Carter. Or are you trying to boast about the number of men who are head over heels for you?” Jennifer taunted mockingly.

Amelia frowned. It seemed that Jennifer was very emotional at that moment. She was probably deeply affected by that tape and that was why Amelia could feel the annoyance radiating off Jennifer's being.

“Please calm down. Ms. Larson. I just want to tell you that Carter cares about you. He even talked to me about you. I can tell that whatever he did toward you was not intentional. Therefore, I was wondering if you could give him another chance. After all, it's always saddening to see two people, who were made for each other, splitting ways,” Amelia advised.

Jennifer reacted like she had heard an incredibly insulting joke. “You said that he cares about me? I think you should practice your script before trying to lie to me, Amelia. How would you, an outsider, know about what Carter thinks of me?”

Amelia pursed her lips.

“Stop acting like you genuinely care, Amelia. I don't need an outsider like you to comment on my love life. Both of us were never friends and never will be. Don't you know how much I hate you?” Jennifer gritted her teeth as she glared at Amelia with such ferocity.

Amelia was taken aback.

She was smart enough to notice the hatred oozing out of Jennifer's eyes.

Does she really hate me so much?

“Ms. Larson, we—”

“Enough! There's nothing left to say between us, Amelia. I will definitely get revenge one day, be it for my mother's sickness or my tarnished reputation. I will make sure to return it tenfold. Just wait and see. I'll be there to witness your tragic downfall,” Jennifer spat.

Upon speaking, she turned around and walked with her head held high.

Amelia frowned as she stared at Jennifer's disappearing figure. She then sighed. It seemed that Jennifer really hated her.

The reason why she schemed against Jennifer and June was that they had plotted her downfall first. If it were not for them, Amelia and Oscar would not have retaliated. She was not a saint, after all. She

would not be able to go on with life with a smile after knowing that someone was out to get her.

Amelia entered the car, and Jolin looked at her with a frown. “Shall I teach her a lesson, Mrs. Clinton?”

“There's no need for that. She didn't do anything to me.”

Jolin's mouth twitched, but she did not say anything.

She drove Amelia back to the office, and the latter pushed the recent encounter to the back of her mind and focused on her work.

It was six in the evening when Amelia was packing her things. Just as she was about to get off work, she received a call. It was from the relatives of the young child who donated his cornea to Amelia. They had come all the way from Anglandur just to meet with her.

She naturally agreed to that.

Jolin drove her over to the meeting spot. On the way there, Amelia called Oscar to update him on what was going on and asked him to go home first.

She had agreed to meet the child's relatives at a restaurant.

After walking up to the second floor, Amelia noticed a couple sitting in the corner. However, it was not the same couple that she had met in Anglandur after regaining her sense of sight.

“Good evening. You two must be Mr. and Mrs. Jennings. I'm Amelia Winters,” Amelia introduced herself politely.

The couple stood up to greet her with a smile, “Hello, Ms. Winters. Please, have a seat.”

Amelia sat down and looked at the Jennings couple.

Both of them were dressed neatly in branded outfits. Anyone would know that they came from a distinguished family just from the way they carried themselves.

Susan, who was also referred to as Mrs. Jennings, was the first to break the silence. “Ms. Winters, the teenage boy who donated his cornea to you is our godson. We are close friends with his parents. His parents were supposed to fly into the country to meet with you, but unfortunately, both of them passed away in a recent car accident. Written in their will was for us to come and see if you are doing all right. They just want to know if you have been taking care of your eyes.”

Amelia's heart sank as she listened to the lady. “I'm so sorry to hear that. I didn't know that they had met with an accident.”

“Don't be sad about it. It must be the universe's plan for them. They only ever had one child, and they had been lonely ever since his passing. They were caught in the accident on the way to their son's grave. I guess it's good that the three of time could finally meet in the afterlife. It's just that they were still thinking about the cornea that was donated to you while on the brink of death. Could you promise us something?”

“Go ahead, Mrs. Jennings,” Amelia responded.

“Could you go to Norham when you have time?” Susan started. “I know this request is a bit unreasonable, but this was his parents' last and only wish. They were thinking about their son who had

not gotten a chance to visit his hometown.”

Amelia remembered what she had told the couple back in Anglandur. She had promised them that she would visit Norham, and it was time to fulfill it.

“I promise that I will visit Norham when I'm free, Mrs. Jennings. Besides, if it weren't for him, I would have never gotten the chance to see the world again.”

“Thank you so much, Ms. Winters.”

“Don't worry about it. It's what I should do.”

After the meal, the three of them left the restaurant. “Mr. and Mrs. Jennings, have you two gotten a place to stay?” Amelia asked.

“Yes, we have. Don't worry about us, and head on home. We can find our way back to the hotel. It's wonderful enough that you've agreed to meet with us today,” Susan replied politely.

“Let me give you two a ride then.” Amelia turned around and gestured for Jolin to drive over.

After they got into the car, Susan said, “Thank you for today, Ms. Winters. On the way from Anglandur, we were originally worried that you wouldn't want to come and meet us. It now seems that we were overthinking.”

“Of course not. I have promised him that I would use his eyes to explore the world. I will do my best to go to places that he never had the chance to. Going to Norham is part of my promise to him,” Amelia replied softly.

Susan's eyes reddened instantly.

She quickly turned around and wiped her tears away before smiling apologetically at Amelia.

The atmosphere in the car suddenly quieted down.

Once they arrived at the hotel, Amelia personally escorted them into the building. “Feel free to call me if you need anything,” she reminded them.

“Thank you so much. My husband and I will be going to Saspiuburg for an international conference. If we have time on our journey back here, we will definitely invite you for a meal again,” Susan said. “Your eyes are exactly the same as my godson's. I nearly thought that I was looking at him. I hope that you will appreciate it and live your life well on his behalf.”

“I will.”

After bidding the couple goodbye, Amelia went back downstairs and got into the car without a word.

“Are you all right, Mrs. Clinton?” Jolin asked tentatively.

All Amelia did was shake her head before replying, “Let's go.”

And with that, Jolin started the car and drove silently. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

Amelia looked out the window and stared at the lights flashing by her. She thought of the picture of the teenage boy that she saw back in Anglandur. It had only been less than a year, and his parents had

already followed him into the afterlife because of a car accident.

Life was indeed full of unexpected events. Just a year ago, both of them were still alive and breathing, but their lives had been taken away by just one accident.

Amelia sighed grimly as she felt downhearted. However, she did not feel terribly miserable.
