Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 152,Love You Enough to Leave You

“Ah, you’re our boss’ friends. Please come on in!” Those in the security firm were welcoming as they led Amelia and Tiffany into the firm and brought them chairs. “Zach, fetch the ladies 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. The latter stuttered, “T-The p-people here are very welcoming.” One of the employees said, “Well, this is a special treatment for beautiful ladies.”

In other words, they wouldn’t treat them with such hospitality if they weren’t beautiful. Tiffany let out a dry laugh. 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 pregnant lady 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 the ladies, 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.

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 the ladies, Mr. Laird.” To them, Gary was self-conscious in front of the ladies 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

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

he saw her yesterday night. His heart was thumping wildly in his chest. Yesterday night, he could still grip his composure 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 this company, I didn’t really treat it as a job; it was more

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

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 explained, “Well, I’m only asking to see if you can eat spicy

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 glanced 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,
