Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 155

Terence stood outside, listening by the bathroom door. He felt there was something fishy going on. Carla didn't usually make him wait like this.

"D-Don't worry! I'll be finished soon!" Carla replied with panic present in her voice. After washing herself roughly, she went outside and her eyes met Terence's worried ones.

"Carla, can you tell me what's wrong?"

he asked, frowning. Something was indeed fishy today. She wasn't acting like herself.

Carla was drying her hair with a towel. "There's nothing wrong. I'm fine. If I am not feeling energetic today, it's because I am not used of not working. I am usually busy with work and frequently work overtime."

Terence couldn't help but grin. "You should know that you now are my woman. I would rather have you not do anything than work yourself to death like a horse.

If money is your concern, I can make more than enough. The only thing you need to do is to love me and enjoy life with me. Get used to it!"

Then he wrapped an arm around her shoulders, leading both of them into the bedroom.

Carla gave a moonlit smile, leaning her head on his shoulder. "What if I couldn't get used to it, hm?"

Terence answered, "Well, I don't think you'll really get used to it. After all, you still get a lot of work to do. Once you have wedded into the An family, there are many tasks waiting for you. The An family is huge and many domestic affairs will be entrusted to you."

Terence took the towel from her hair and dried her hair with it carefully and gently.

As An family's future hostess, Carla would have to deal with a lot of things. They might be in the clan itself or their own family.

Even if her responsibility sounded big on her shoulders, he would be there for her and make sure she didn't carry the burden all by herself.

Carla sat down on the sofa, chewing on her lower lip. Wasn't he going to her the truth?

Would she be able to marry him? Would she be able to share the responsibilities for him?

In marriage, love and responsibilities would go hand in hand. Was she even qualified to take on those responsibilities? Many questions rang in Carla's head.

Terence used the hairdryer on her hair, snapping her out of her thoughts. His dark eyes were filled with concern. "Carla, seriously. What happened? Can you tell me? I'm so worried about you."

She seemed to have her head up in the clouds more often. She started to space out more frequently. In his point of view, something must have been wrong with her.

Perhaps the kidnapping several days ago caused a severe trauma to her.

Carla blinked. She looked at their reflection at mirror and replied, "I wish to return to BH City once Sean's training session is over. There are things I need to handle at home."

Terence froze for a moment and gently turned her to face him. "Is it because of this issue?"

Carla hummed as she nodded.

Terence sighed. Even though he wasn't keen on letting her go, he didn't force to keep her staying since he saw how it made her feel unhappy.

"Very well then. I promise you that I'll let you go to BH City once everything was settled." Then he pointed out his index finger. "But Sean will have to stay. It's unfair to let him go now since he studied so hard to catch with the other students in that school. Don't let his hard work go waste."

Carla's eyes widened and shook her head. "No way! Are you mad? How can I leave him alone here?"

He smirked, "Not going to let you bargain on this one."

Deep down, he was afraid that if Sean returned with her, she would leave him forever.

He knew that Sean was the most important person for her. If Sean would stay with him, she wouldn't be able to stay long in BH City.

She tried to speak up, "B-But..."

Terence interrupted her, "Have you forgotten I am Sean's future brother-in-law? I'm also a part of his family now. He will be staying with me.

What are you so worried about? I won't discuss this further."

She chewed her lip. He knew that he was being reasonable enough. She tried to find a suitable reason but failed to. She raised her voice in anger. "That's not fair! You are threatening me!"
