Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 289 I’ll Hold My Girlfriend In My Arms

Carla's leg was badly hurt. How could she possibly go back now?

She looked at her broken leg helplessly and sighed. It already restricted her freedom enough. What

else could she do but depend on others?

Of course, she couldn't tell Noah what she thought. He was hoping that she would go back to JA City

after their engagement. But she was so desperate to go back now.

'Terence...

Yes, Terence!' she suddenly thought.

Carla picked up her mobile phone to call Terence. She dialed his number but suddenly decided to hang

up just before he answered.

'No, I can't be so impulsive.

If I call Terence now, it'll be impossible to hide it from Noah. I can't even go downstairs without others'

help. How could I possibly ask Terence to come and pick me up now? How could I hide that from

others?

If Terence met Noah, things would not be good.

Honestly speaking, things would become definitely bad if they ever meet, '

Carla thought. She was becoming even more confused now. She looked at her broken leg again,

angrily. At that moment, she really wanted to see it off and replace it with an artificial one. At least with

today's technology, it would be possible for her to walk on an artificial leg.

As she thought of this, she found her idea to be absurd. She tapped her head hard to remind herself to

come back to reality.

'Carla, you must be dreaming!' she thought to herself. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Just then, her mobile phone suddenly rang.

When she saw the name on the screen, she quickly took her crutch that was nearby and went back into

her room to answer the phone.

She dialed Terence's number just a few minutes ago. However, she hung up on him even before he

could answer her. She didn't expect him to call her back.

"Did you call me just now?"

Terence asked her. Carla heard the familiar voice again on the phone. She hadn't heard it for quite

some time now.

Carla leaned against the door with one hand supporting her crutch. Suddenly, tears welled up in her

eyes and her voice got choked up in sobs.

"Carla, what is happening to you?"

Terence asked. He was beginning to worry about her. Judging by her breathing, he was guessing that

she was a little upset. With his brows furrowed, he said to her, "Wait a moment. I'll be right there."

"... Terence,"

Carla called his name. She just couldn't control herself when she heard his voice. There was

something about him that could make her undone.

"Terence, I miss you... So much," she said while her tears were falling down her cheeks.

These past few days, she thought that she could stop herself from missing Terence. However, at that

moment when she heard his voice, she realized just how vulnerable she was to him.

When she heard his voice, she just couldn't help but want to rely on him with all her heart.

When he heard Carla call his name, Terence became so excited that his hands started trembling

uncontrollably. He was currently busy with some business in the office. However, when he realized that

Carla wanted to see him, he immediately dropped the documents in his hands and strode out of the

office.

"Carla, can you finally remember me? Don't cry, my darling. Be patient for a while because I'm on my

way to see you!"

Terence said while he was walking out of the office. He gestured to Nathan who was waiting outside to

prepare a private jet for him at once.

Terence was constantly thinking of visiting Carla. However, since Allen just died two days ago, he knew

that it was not appropriate for him to meet with her these days. He had been resisting the urge to go to

HA City.

He was thinking that since he wasn't a member of her family, it was not right for him to attend Allen's

funeral.

"... Terence, I want to see you so badly. However, it would not be easy for me to walk away from here

because of my broken leg. I really don't know what to do. I suddenly hate myself for being so useless!"

Carla said with tears still running down her eyes. She could no longer control her sadness at all.

At that point, she felt helpless and powerless. She was utterly confused. She did not know what to do

next.

'Why is it so hard for me to see the person that I love!' she thought to herself.

"Don't cry, Carla! It pains me to hear you like this! If you can't come see me, then I will be the one who

goes to you right away! Wherever you are, I promise that I will go see you as soon as possible!"

Terence comforted her. When he heard her choking with sobs, he furrowed his brows in sadness.

"Please don't cry. Everything will be alright. We will surpass this together. Are you in the hospital or at

the Hua family's residence?" Terence asked her calmly when his mind calmed down after a few

moments.

To his surprise, Carla said, "I'm at Noah's house."

Terence immediately stopped walking. He was in a daze. His mobile phone was clutched in his hand

tightly. He pretended that he was still calm then he said, "Well, tell me the address. If you don't know

the address, you can just send me your location."

'What! She is now living in Noah's house?' Terence wondered. Everything was getting out of control.

"Well, okay! I'll send you my location right away!"

Carla nodded and then hung up the phone. After a few moments, she sent her location to Terence.

She knew that she was being impulsive but she didn't want to think much about it anymore. What was

important was that Terence was now on his way to see her.

She just wanted to see Terence! She missed him very much. She couldn't wait to wrap her arms

around him in a tight hug.

The moment that she heard his voice, she immediately wished that he would just appear in front of her

at that exact moment. She wanted to see him as soon as possible.

'Why couldn't I just see him every day?

Is that too much to ask?

My mother and Noah are both aware that Terence is my boyfriend. They also know that I only promised

to be engaged to Noah because I wanted to save the Hua family.

That being the case, why couldn't I meet with Terence whenever I want?

If I'm not allowed to see him now, what should I do after I'm engaged?

Wait! Noah said that I could go back to JA City after our engagement. He also said that I could stay

there for as long as I wanted. Didn't he mean that the engagement was just a fake ceremony that

wouldn't influence my relationship with Terence?

As soon as the condition of the Hua family becomes more stable and everything is back on track, I

shall be able to cancel my engagement with Noah immediately.

Yes, I don't need to make things complicated. If only I were a child, then I wouldn't have so many

worries to think about, ' she thought to herself.

Time passed quickly.

After an hour, Carla's phone rang again.

"I'm at the door of Noah's house. Can you please come out to see me? If you can't, just tell me which

room you are in and I'll go there to see you," Terence said calmly in a magnetic voice.

Carla hurried to the window by holding the wall. Then she opened the curtains. She looked down and

saw the familiar handsome figure of Terence. He was standing just outside the gate and was holding

his mobile phone in one hand.

"... I see you. I'll go downstairs right now!"

Then she hung up the phone. While still holding the wall, she went to the bed and picked up her crutch

as well as her handbag. She was ready to go downstairs to meet Terence.

However, as soon as she opened the door, Noah came out from his room that was opposite to hers.

"What's the matter, Carla? Where are you going?"

Noah asked her with a puzzled look on his face. He was in his pajamas as if he had just woken up.

Carla was stunned for a moment but then she gathered herself and tried to smile at him naturally. Then

she said to him, "Noah, Terence came to visit me. I was just on my way downstairs to see him."

'It's useless to hide it from him. Terence was already at the door. It's better if I tell him frankly, ' she

thought.

Hearing what she said, Noah looked unhappy for a moment. Then with a gentle smile, he said to Carla,

"Really? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Wait a minute. I'll just change my clothes and take you

downstairs myself."

Noah was about to go back to his room to change clothes when Carla stopped him and said, "No, you

don't have to bother, Noah. I'll go downstairs to see him myself."

Noah turned around with a reluctant smile. Without looking at her directly, he said, "Well then, I'll take

you downstairs in my pajamas."

Noah came closer to her and was about to pick her up in his arms. He thought it was only natural for

him to do so because the wound in her leg wasn't healed yet. She still could not walk on uneven

ground so it would be inconvenient for her to go downstairs on her own.

However, before he could even touch her, he heard a familiar voice behind him.

"You don't need to bother, Mr. Hua. I am perfectly capable of holding my girlfriend in my arms!"

Noah was dumbfounded because Terence came upstairs without his permission. A servant was

running after Terence while panting. He shouted desperately, "Sir, sir... You are not allowed to go

upstairs! Mr. …Mr. Hua. I am really sorry for the sudden interruption."

When the servant saw Noah, he greeted him in a respectful manner.

Noah gestured at the servant and said, "Don't be so nervous. Terence is one of my friends. You can go

about your business."

Carla was standing beside Noah.

When she saw Terence, she looked at him intently. Her beautiful eyes lit up with great joy upon seeing

him. It was as if she could see no one

but Terence.
