Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 422 The Price We Pay And What We Get In Return

After sending Amelia off, Carter started driving toward his office. However, halfway there, the man turned his car around to go home because he suddenly remembered something.

When Carter reached home, he parked his car and took the elevator upstairs. As soon as the elevator door opened, he saw a slender figure curled up and squatting right outside his home.

The man could guess who it was without even looking at the face, for it could only be Jennifer.

With a hardened look, Carter slowly walked toward the woman.

Jennifer lifted her head before jumping to her feet when she noticed that Carter had returned. Her eyes were still bloodshot.

“Carter,” called out Jennifer.

Carter only glanced at the woman before taking out his keys to unlock the front door. “Come inside.”

Even though the invitation was cold, Jennifer decided to accept the offer and enter the abode anyway.

“I thought you were mad at me,” continued Carter without even turning to face the woman as he took off his jacket and loosened his necktie.

Facing the man’s back, Jennifer gritted her teeth with discontent. Why is he still treating me so indifferently when he knows just how upset I was? Doesn’t he care about my feelings at all?

At that moment, Jennifer could feel a sense of bitterness in her heart. She loved Carter so much that she was willing to let go of her dignity. Still, the man remained distant toward her.

I just don’t understand. What did I ever do wrong? What is it about me that makes Carter treat me this way? No matter how hard I tried to pretend to hate him, he just never seemed to care nor take pity on me. All he ever cares about is Amelia. To him, I’m just a nobody, and nothing I did ever matter to him. As much as I want to, I just can’t seem to change his feeling for me.
