Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 133,Love You Enough to Leave You

Tiffany pushed the door opened and went into the office with the editor. Their gaze simultaneously fell on the man over at the working table. He was buried in work when they entered. Although Tiffany could not see his face clearly, she could tell from his attire and style that he was a young man. He was dressed in a suit and tie and his hair was neatly brushed with hair gel. It went without saying that he was another one of those successful businessmen. “Mr. Hisson, Tiffany’s here,” the editor announced. He put down the pen in his hand and lifted his grumpy face. Tiffany took in a breath of cold air when she saw him. She could not believe how someone could be blessed with such incredible looks.

Not only were his eyes charming, but they also sparked with a hint of wistfulness. His lips pursed tensely below his pointy nose with a perfectly straight bridge. His long and black lashes flapped in annoyance as he drilled his gaze into both of them. Tiffany could not help but gasp. Any woman would fall for a man like him. His complexion and clear skin could easily put any woman to shame. Although his appearance was elegant, he exudes a demeanor of beguiling masculinity. Standing in front of an impeccable man like him, Tiffany could not help but feel weak and small. Not only did he have the looks, but he was also accomplished, and had an enigmatic air about him. He could well be a homme fatale.

Tiffany found him scary. She was originally all worked up by the news, but now that she saw this man in person, she felt weak. “Shannon, I’ll talk to her privately,” the man spoke, waving his hand. Shannon cast a worrying glance at her before leaving. “Tiffany, you have a good discussion with Mr. Hisson. I’ll go back to work first.” Tiffany nodded and Shannon walked out. Now that they were left alone, Derrick beckoned her over. “Take a seat,” he said, toying with the ring on his middle finger. Tiffany did as she was told. She clasped her hands together nervously and mustered her courage. “May I know why are you terminating my contract, Mr. Hisson? I’m under the impression that we’ve been working well together.”

An enticing smile curved on his lips. “Would you come to my office otherwise?” “Huh?” Tiffany opened her mouth slightly in confusion. The smile on Derrick’s face deepened at her clueless face. “Tiff, did anyone tell you that you look cute?” Tiff? Tiffany could not even think straight. She simply could not believe what she just heard. “What’s wrong?” His deep and hoarse voice shook her back to reality. Tiffany looked at him in the eyes and her hot cheeks were flushed red. This had never happened to her before—not even when she met Oscar and Carter. There was something different about this man. She felt an intense pressure being around him, so much so that her heart would burst any time.

are you canceling the contract? Is it because my book is not selling well?” Derrick shot her a mysterious smile as he watched her closely. “You’ve been avoiding me, haven’t you? Tell me if there’s a better way to make you come to me.” Tiffany was puzzled. It was true that she came up with all sorts of excuses to stay away from him, but that was because she figured it would be better to

so she did not fall under his spell. He was like a drug to her. No one could resist a desirable man like him, and Tiffany felt a well-to-do man like him was way out of her league, so she had better keep her distance. She did not understand how her staying away from him would provoke him—it should work the other way round!

a very serious tone. Derrick put both his hands on the table and leaned forward, closing the gap between the two of them. He was so near to her she could even smell the scent on his body. “Emm… Mr. Hisson,” Tiffany mumbled, disoriented. “Call me by my name.” Tiffany was dumbfounded. She had

by his first name. “Is this a joke, Mr. Hisson?” Derrick seemed to have a good time teasing her. He took a strand of her hair and ran his fingers through it. Tiffany’s eyes widened in bewilderment and her cheeks were burning hot. “Has anyone ever told you that you’re beautiful?” he

me. I like your reaction.” His words piqued her, but at the same time, she did not know how to react. She had always taken him as her superior, and she expected nothing more from their professional relationship. Both of them were not from the same world. He came from a rich family, albeit being slightly more attractive than his counterparts like Oscar and Carter. Derrick started his own company without his family’s backing and managed to grow it all alone. “Mr. Hisson, let’s get to the point,” Tiffany said, trying to

just could not get through to him. “Look, Mr. Hisson, you said you wanted to end my contract, but you should at least give me a good reason for it. I know the compensation means nothing to you, but don’t you think it’s unethical to just bail out on a partner who has been working with you for years?” “Did I say I want to terminate our contract?” Derrick cut her harangue short. Tiffany stopped and

if I offend you. Since you’re not terminating our contract, I don’t see why I should stay here. I pulled an all-nighter just to finish off my writing, and I need to get some rest now. See you.” Seeing her leaving, Derrick quickly shot her a question. “Did you cross the Yard family by any chance?” Tiffany’s halted. Thoughts ran through her mind as she tried connecting the dots. “Did Mrs. Yard ask you to do anything?” she asked forthrightly. This was

there who can’t wait to sign a contract with me even if my company ditches me. My books are selling like hotcakes across the world! My fans will not go easy on Yard Group if they know what

red in indignation. “I really couldn’t take her nonsense anymore. I simply had to teach her a lesson.” The perplexity on his face quickly
