I am wondering why (a) includes "with" while (b) doesn't.

What do you think?

How about these:

c. She left me the impression that she was unhappy with her job.

d. I'm afraid you leave me with no choice.

C and D don't work.

I am wondering why (a) includes "with" while (b) doesn't.

Those are two different usages of the verb "leave". Each one has its own structure.
This is very common in English.

I agree with GoesStation that "C" is no good, but I think "D" can work with or without "with".

I've taken a second look and I agree with you. D is okay.
