Chapter 700 Do Not Put Yourself Down

Carter quickly made his way toward Jennifer as soon as the banquet ended. “Let me send you back, Jennifer.”

With a conflicted expression, Jennifer glanced at him before retracting her gaze. Coolly, she said, “I won’t have to trouble you, Mr. Scott. I already have someone sending me home.”

June laughed as he tightened his grip on Jennifer’s waist. “Mr. Scott, are you interested in my partner? Sorry to disappoint you, but Jennifer is now with me; she even agreed to be my lover if I did something to help her family’s company. I doubt I’ll be able to let you have her.”

Carter’s eyes gleamed, his gaze locked on Jennifer.

“Is he telling the truth, Jennifer? Didn’t I tell you that you could always come to me with your company’s problems? I could help you.” Carter’s brow furrowed as he continued angrily, “You shouldn’t disgrace yourself no matter what the circumstances are.”

Jennifer scoffed. “You’re funny, Mr. Scott. I’m still a bachelorette, and June’s a bachelor. It’s none of your business if I willingly become his lover or get married to him. I no longer want to bother you. Don’t you love Amelia? Please continue with that. However, I respectfully request that you refrain from getting involved in my business. I’m the one to determine who I get involved with.”

Carter felt a tug at his heartstrings. However, he suddenly had the urge to snap back at her with cruel comments.

 
 
 
 
 
 

He didn’t like Jennifer putting herself down.

“Get Amelia out of your mouth,” Carter snarled. “You can’t compare to Amelia in any way. Even after experiencing so many horrible things, she didn’t degrade herself. How about you? You brought this upon yourself. Who are you acting like a sl*t for?”

Jennifer felt a pang in her heart. Furthermore, the sight of Amelia holding onto Oscar, the epitome of a happy family, walking toward her made her feel extremely humiliated. Fuming, she turned to June. “Let’s go, June. We shouldn’t stay and listen to a crazy person spouting nonsense.”

 

Carter tried to take Jennifer’s hand, but she quickly slapped his hand away.

Carter was irritated as he watched her leaving figure. He did not intend for this to happen. He only wanted Jennifer to keep her distance from June. However, his anger got the better of him and overcame his sense of reason, turning his words into knives.

Amelia sighed upon seeing the scene. How could Carter have such low EQ? I told him to pursue her, not piss her off. I don’t remember his EQ being this low in the past.

Amelia cocked her head to a side as she looked at Oscar. Amused, she said, “You should teach Carter a move or two on pursuing women when you’re free, Oscar. If not, he’s bound to be single for the rest of his life.”

“Sure,” Oscar agreed without further hesitation.

Oscar would be one rival down if he could bring Carter and Jennifer together. Amelia had no feelings for Carter, but there was no denying that having one less opponent would make Oscar feel better.

Carter turned around and was met with Amelia’s gaze. His face burned in embarrassment before chuckling bitterly. “Heading back, Amelia?”
