Too Much To Bear My Love

Chapter 617 A Visit To The Larson Residence

Given all the hatred Jennifer harbored within her, she viewed every problem in a rather extreme way.

That was also why she couldn’t live in peace most of the time.

The woman remained on the couch for a long while before getting up and leaving the mansion. Then, she drove around on the streets aimlessly and soon found herself in front of Carter’s company building.

After parking her vehicle, Jennifer stared at the building through her window and began to space out.

She then let out a sigh after God knows how long and eventually drove away.

While gripping her steering wheel, she watched the flow of traffic with a solemn expression and pursed lips.

Jennifer continued to drive until dusk fell. She then stopped outside a pasta restaurant as the sky grew dark.

The woman alighted her car and walked into the building, only to catch sight of a figure she could never forget for the rest of her life. But as she quickly turned to leave, the man called out to her.

“Jennifer!”

She stopped for brief moment before continuing to walk ahead.

“Wait, Jennifer!” The man chased after her and grabbed her by the arm.

Jennifer tried to free herself but to no avail.

She glared at the man before breaking into a smile.

“Mr. Scott! It’s been a while. I’m so sorry I couldn’t recognize you when our eyes first met.”

Carter furrowed his brows. He didn’t like how distant she seemed from him.

The man would constantly think of ways to drive her away during the times she used to cling to him, but after she left him for real, something just didn’t feel right anymore. It was as though his heart constantly itched.

“Aren’t we still friends, Jennifer? You don’t have to treat me like this or run away every time you see me.” Carter continued to frown.

Jennifer snorted as though she had just heard a joke. “Why, I don’t think I can even afford to have you as a friend, Mr. Scott! In fact, I must’ve been blind to have gone after you for two years, thinking you’d eventually fall for me! It took me so long to realize how stupid I was, but at least you’re free now. We should have nothing to do with each other anymore, so just pretend you don’t know me the next time you bump into me.”

Hearing that only magnified the displeasure in Carter’s heart.

“Stop making a fuss, Jennifer. Let’s sit down and talk,” he said patiently.
