Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 239 Punishment

Kurt calmly explained, “There are always some disobedient little characters who are always showing off and messing things up. It is not convenient for Boss to take action. Naturally, we bodyguards will deal with them.”

Seeing that he was so calm, Amelia slowly pulled herself together. She suspected that with a group as large as the Clinton Corporations, many operations were not as simple as they seemed on the surface and many things were done in the dark. As for murder, she thought it was not altogether improbable. After all, we often do things against our will.

“Are you shocked?” Kurt glanced at Amelia thoughtfully and asked earnestly.

Amelia nodded and smiled. “A little and I’m surprised that you would tell me this.”

“I’m instructed to protect you. Naturally, I will only be loyal to you. I can tell you whatever you want to know. Of course, if you don’t want to know such bloody facts, I shall keep silent.” Kurt’s expression was very serious giving the impression that everything he said was out of sincerity.

Amelia concluded that this tall strong man was steadfast in human relationships. He was not a versatile person who could play by ear but rather loyal, unchanging and faithful to his employer.

She believed that Oscar had sent him because he liked his loyalty.

Amelia changed the subject. “Have you eaten?”

Kurt nodded.

“The maid sent me some food.”

Amelia looked at Tony who was sound asleep and spoke affectionately. “Tony is fine with me taking care of him. Why don’t you go out and stretch your limbs? It must be difficult for you as a man to just watch over a child all day. When he’s bigger, you can go back to Oscar. It seems like a waste of talent to have you with me.”

Kurt did not reply but walked towards the window and turned around. “Ma’am, call me when you need me. I’ll be nearby.” With that, he climbed out of the window and disappeared from Amelia’s view.
