Love You Enough to Leave You

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.

Then, they bowed ninety degrees at him comically and greeted, “Good day, Mr. Laird!” Gary was seething as he scolded, “You cheeky rascals! Stop fooling around in the office. No one will hire bodyguards from our company if they see you guys behaving like this.” One of the employees reminded, “Gary, may I remind you that the ladies are still here. You wouldn’t want to scare them off with your loud voice.” That was when Gary remembered that Amelia and Tiffany were in the office. His face flushed in embarrassment upon realizing that his glorious image was ruined in front of the ladies.

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 back of his head awkwardly. He managed to placate a calm facade as he turned to face the ladies. “The boys didn’t scare you, did they?” Both Amelia and Tiffany shook their

was talking to him. She looked even more beautiful in the bright office compared to when 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 like a pastime. As we put in more effort, energy, and time into running the company, I started to take it more seriously.

haven’t met such beautiful ladies in a long time, and that’s the reason for their overwhelming hospitality. I hope they didn’t scare you.” Tiffany gazed at him quizzically

an hour ago. Amelia thought about it for a while and eventually agreed with Gary’s proposal 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

ask me whether I can eat spicy food?” Gary was relieved when Tiffany took the heat off him. He let out a hearty laugh and explained himself, “Amelia is pregnant, so it’s normal for me to ask her first. As you know, we need to be extremely careful when it comes to the diet of a pregnant
