Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 205

Carla panicked when she saw that her way was blocked by the car. She couldn't think clearly so she forgot to step on the brake until there were only a few inches between her car and the car before her. However, they still crashed.

Fortunately, she was driving very slowly, therefore the impact of the crash was not strong enough to cause any injuries. It was just a slight rear-end collision.

When Carla was ready to get off, the driver of the Porsche that she just hit got out of the car.

It was Terence who had been following her from the villa. He approached her car and knocked on the window. "Carla, get off the car!"

Carla started to become furious again at the sight of him. Then, she started the car engine and reversed. Since his cars were all in good quality, a few damages wouldn't cause big problems.

She reversed until there was enough space for her to bypass Terence's Porsche.

However, she stopped the car immediately

because Terence stood in front of the way.

Carla had no choice but to open the door and get off. "Terence, what are you doing?" she snapped.

Once Terence saw her get off, he strode to her as he addressed Sean, "Sean, keep your eyes closed until I say that you can open them!"

While Carla was still confused at his strange command, Terence hugged her tightly. Then, he leaned over to kiss her.

But before he could touch her lips, Carla gave him a hard slap.

"Don't touch me! Terence, from now on, I won't allow you to lay a finger on me!"

Carla's slap made Terence dumbfounded. Nathan's and Rainer's mouth dropped to the floor as well.

They saw exactly how Terence was slapped.

"You two, just leave. Take Sean back home with you!"

Terence ordered. When he turned to them, they saw the mark that Carla's palm left on Terence's cheek. Even the night couldn't conceal the redness of his cheek.

They answered yes immediately and drove away, leaving only Terence's Porsche.

They couldn't help but feel pity for Terence. He would definitely be having a hard time tonight.

"Who are you expecting to touch you except me?" Terence grabbed her arms and asked. A frown started to form on his face.

Since her arms were controlled, Carla decided to use her legs to fight back. She must give him a lesson after all!

However, when Carla lifted her legs to kick his crotch, Terence dodged quickly and in return pressed her arms to the Porsche.

"Carla, hear me out! I can explain! I know you must be very angry since you took such a long journey from BH City but you couldn't find me. But before you make any decisions, can you give me a chance to defend myself?"

Terence tried to reason with her as he pressed both her arms and legs with his own. Finally, she couldn't struggle out of his hold.

"Explain? Dating a beautiful girl late at night? Comforting her and giving her your handkerchief? What were the two of you going to do next if I weren't there? What excuses do you have for these facts?" Carla continued to struggle from his hold but she failed. She could only glare at him.

Terence smiled bitterly and leaned down to look at her. "Carla, I'm sorry! It's my fault! I promise I won't spend time with any other girl at night."

Carla turned away to avoid eye contact with him. She was afraid that she might soften in front of his sincere eyes.

"I don't need your apology, and I don't want to hear your explanation!"

Carla insisted.

"Carla⁠—" Terence called in a loving voice. He then continued, "I promise, I didn't do anything with her. We just talked!"

Carla gritted her teeth and pushed him aside. She asked, "Terence, tell me, who is she?"

Terence lowered his head and sighed, "She is one of my old friends. We haven't met each other for years, and by chance, we met briefly several days ago."

"So she's only a friend and not your first love?" Carla raised her voice as she questioned him.

Carla couldn't help but be doubtful since she recognized the girl from the picture that she saw a while back.

Terence looked at her in shock and stammered, "Ca-Carla, how- did you know that?"

Carla couldn't believe that her suspicion was right. She was so angry that she became speechless. She pushed him in rage and ran away.

'He lied to my face! How could he do that?' Carla thought.

"Carla—" Terence followed her immediately.

"Don't follow me!" Carla looked back at him in tears. "Did you remember that you told me I was the first one you fell in love with? Then how about her? What is she to you then?

You lied to me, Terence. To be honest, I don't mind your past or your first love if you have just told me. But you lied to me instead! Why did you do that? That's unforgivable!"

Terence stared at her in silence. How could he explain that he forgot everything?

"If you lied to me once, then it would be easy for you to lie in the future. You clearly told me that you had never loved any girl before me. If you didn't love her, why are you calling her your first love?

Why did you hide it from me? What else are you hiding?"

Carla approached him as she questioned him sharply.

She sneered as she saw how speechless he was by her questions. She felt her heart broke as she looked at him then.

"Terence An, I'm sure that you're hiding more things from me besides this one. Am I right?" she urged on.

The situation was already out of Terence's control, and he must stop Carla from thinking worse. He came up to her, grabbed her arms and propped her into the car even though she was unwilling to.

He fastened her seat belt and said, "Carla, even a criminal who's about to be sentenced to death has the right to defend himself, right? Let's go back home first. As soon as we return, I'll tell you everything that you want to know. You can decide for yourself after you hear me out. Okay?"

After he finished speaking, Terence got on the car and drove back to the Seaview Villa.

On their way back, something occurred to Terence.

"Carla, when did you get your driver's license?" he asked, concerned.

Carla, who was staring outside the window, was suddenly pulled back to reality. She scratched her hair and stammered, "Well— I— I don't have a license."

She almost forgot about that very important fact.

The atmosphere froze immediately.

Terence looked at her in shock. He had seen her drove poorly, and he thought that she might haven't driven for a long time after she got her license. However, he didn't expect that she had no license!

Driving was among the several things that Carla didn't know well enough. She almost forgot that she didn't have a license before Terence asked her.

Even so, she had driven several times when she worked in an entertainment park. She had tried driving the tour vehicle, and she thought that driving was pretty simple. However, she had never thought of getting a driver's license because she didn't have a car for one.

But Carla was confident enough to drive any kind of car.

So she didn't think that it was a big deal to drive without a license.

Upon returning to the Seaview Villa, Terence told all the staff that Carla was not allowed to touch any vehicle in the future.
