Love You Enough to Leave You

After finishing speaking, he left firmly without looking back. “Carter, come back here now.” Mrs. Scott roared savagely. “Stop calling him. Let him leave.” Abel waved his hand and murmured. Mrs. Scott complained, “Dad, this boy is getting out of his way. If you continue to indulge him like this, not only me, but I’m afraid he won’t even listen to you.” Abel chuckled profoundly. “He has the same style as me during the old days. He looks gentle but is stubborn in his bones. Don’t worry about it. I believe he will be able to handle his work and relationship well.

Since he doesn’t like the daughter of the Larsons, let it be then. There are many wealthy young ladies out there. It doesn’t have to be that Larson girl.” Mrs. Scott tried hard to control the rage inside her. “I had made an agreement with the Larsons, and they had come back all the way from overseas just for this marital alliance. You want me to tell them that our boy has someone else in his heart and ask them to go back?” “You caused this, so you should be the one to solve it.” Abel stood up. “I’m sleepy. Good night. You can solve the Larson’s affairs by yourself.” He went upstairs right away, leaving Mrs. Scott alone on the sofa, stunned with confusion. After Carter left the house, he drove like crazy on the road. He sped through several red lights and approached the riverside.

He shouldered down a box of beer he had bought on the road and sat solely by the river. He started to drink one bottle of them desperately. Gazing at the sparkling river surface under the moonlight, he could taste the bitterness of the beer. Perhaps one was more likely to get drunk when in sorrow. Carter felt a little tipsy after only a few bottles of beer. He wanted to call the woman he loved. He fished for his mobile phone and looked through his contacts. His finger froze on the contact name My Love. He hesitated for a long time but did not call her. Instead, he dialed Tiffany’s number. The phone got through, and Tiffany’s sleepy and irritable voice traveled out of the speaker.

“You better have something important. Otherwise, I will kill you for waking me from my beauty sleep.” Hearing that, Carter’s fretful emotion seemed to fade a little. “Tiffany, was Amelia having a hard time back then?” Carter’s voice was slightly drunk. Tiffany yelled dryly on the phone and thundered, “Carter, you are a jinx. Are you calling in the middle of the night to ask such a tedious question? If there is nothing else, I will hang up.” “Don’t hang up. I’m upset. Can you chat with me?” Tiffany sensed the abnormality in Carter’s tone and asked hesitantly, “Did you drink?” “A little, not too much.” Tiffany sighed, “Carter, although I called you a jinx, you are terrific and handsome, to be honest. You can have any woman you like, so why bother about Amelia? She is now married and has a baby. You can’t win her heart by being a drunkard. Is she worth it?”

her marriage.” “She is living very well now. Her husband loves her, and her baby will be born in a few months. Can’t you see she has a happy family?” Tiffany persuaded earnestly. “Four years ago, when you abandoned her and let her bear the debt alone, you should have expected this outcome.” After a pause, she advised, “Carter, don’t drink anymore. Go

be fine.” Carter started singing instead. Tiffany had never seen Carter so despaired. She started to worry. She asked caringly, “Carter, are you okay?” “Nuh-uh.” Carter was blatantly honest, likely due to being under the influence

immediately. She took the elevator downstairs to the parking lot, got in her car, and drove out. Maybe because it was midnight, the road was not busy at all. It took only about forty-five minutes for her to get to the riverside mentioned by Carter. She got out of the car, locked the car, and leaped to the riverside. She spotted Carter sitting alone on the shore. Empty beer
