Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 131,Love You Enough to Leave You

Carter leaned on the pillow and said, “Granddad, you were young once. I’m sure you’d been madly in love before. It’s difficult for a man to meet a woman who he’s willing to give everything up for. So, once he meets her, she’ll be the only one for him and he would do anything for her. I fell in love with Amelia at first sight. She’s beautiful inside and out and is respectful to her elders. It’s hard not to fall for such a woman.” Abel was speechless. The passions of love were a thing of the past for Abel and he had forgotten about the feelings and thoughts he had back then. Talking about it now, Abel recalled what it felt like to be in love.

It left a sweet feeling in his heart. Even though a few decades had already passed, he was unable to forget the romance he had back then. Abel had spent many years focusing on business and was supposed to be more hard-hearted and decisive. However, the older he was, the more softhearted he became, especially when facing his family. “Carter, Amelia’s already someone else’s wife. I think you should let go of your feelings for her. The two of you aren’t destined to be together in this lifetime,” said Abel sincerely. “If she’s happy in her marriage, I’ll quietly watch over her. If her marriage falls apart, I’ll save her from it. I don’t intend to give her up in this lifetime.” Abel looked Carter in the eye and asked, “Do you mean that other than Amelia, you won’t consider marrying any other woman?”

“Granddad, marriage is just a formality. All those couples get is a certificate.” “Even if it’s only just a certificate, I want you to get married. I’m already almost at the end of my life. I don’t want to die without seeing my great-grandchild.” “Two of my cousins are married, and another is already pregnant with a child. Your great-grandchild will come soon enough. Just don’t complain that you have too many to take care of later on.” Carter had skillfully deflected the problem away from him. Abel glared at him and replied, “Don’t try to avoid the topic. I’ll give you a deadline. If she’s still happily married by the time you’re thirty, then you have to get married. I’ll personally select a suitable wife for you amongst the daughters of those rich families.”

closed his eyes. “Granddad, you have promised not to interfere with my marriage.” Abel replied, “You’re still young. It’s the best time to work on your career now, so I won’t intervene. But by the time you’re thirty, your career would be successful and it would be the right time to start a family. If you marry the daughter of a rich family, it’ll be beneficial to the business too.” Carter looked at Abel. “Given the power of the Scotts, I don’t think I need to marry a rich lady to help the business,

feelings.” Carter lay back down, his voice was full of exhaustion. “I’m tired and I’m going to sleep now. Why don’t you get the chauffeur to send you back for dinner? It’s really late now.” Abel had a complicated look in his eyes. “Carter, tell me honestly. Do you really don’t have any feelings for Jennifer? She’s quite a good girl and seems to really like you. Although she’s from a rich family, she is still willing to cook for you. I’m sure that if the two of you get together, she’ll be a

you really not going to consider her at all?” Carter shook his head and looked at Abel with a hint of guilt. However, love could not be forced. “I know she treats me well and she took a lot of effort to take care of me these few days. I’m thankful for her but I don’t love her. I only see her as a sister. If I marry her, neither of us will be happy in the end.” Abel then gave Carter some advice.

smiled sincerely. “Sorry, I know you only mean well for me, but I really have no intention to get married right now. I also don’t intend to join the Scott Group. You’re still healthy and strong. I’m sure you’ll live a long life, so you can

fit to manage the company. All your cousins only know how to play around so they can’t handle such an important task. I’ll only feel at ease if you take over the company.” Carter fell silent. Abel then

with age. I can’t keep anything from you.” Abel broke into a smile. “You brat. How dare you play tricks on your granddad.” “It’s because you taught me well. Who else would I learn my debate skills from?” “Fine, stop your nonsense. I won’t interfere in your business with Amelia anymore, on the premise of her being single. She’s now married to Oscar and is a daughter-in-law of the Clinton family. Even though our family is also rich, it doesn’t quite compare to theirs. So as long as she’s still married to Oscar, you can’t have anything to do with her. Our family can’t handle it if the Clintons

it weren’t for Oscar’s generosity, our stocks would have been unstable by tomorrow. You’re a capable man, but in terms of managing your emotions, you are nowhere close to Oscar.” At first, Carter had brightened up. However, by the time Abel finished his sentence, Carter’s expression had darkened. “Am I really

of you, so naturally, you’re very capable. However, you’re still not that good compares to Oscar. You lack some decisiveness. Don’t be so overly cautious and indecisive and you’ll be a better match to him.” Carter’s expression worsened. “I’ve never lacked decisiveness. It’s just that no one has given me a chance to show my abilities. Four or five years ago, I was

matter what, you have to thank her. Even if you don’t become lovers, don’t ever burn the bridges.” Carter pondered for a while before nodding eventually. “Get some rest. I’ll go to the washroom.” While Abel took care of his business, Carter thought about the situation. Carter and Abel had finally managed to reach some kind of agreement. On the other hand, when Oscar had first left the ward with Amelia, he had an
