Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 150

"I'm feeling much better now. It was indeed a really perilous situation, but Terence arrived just in time to save my life. I'm fine now and it's all thanks to him. I'm grateful that you're concerned about me, Miss Bonnie! I really appreciate it,"

Carla politely responded just as well.

Terence's eyes were totally fixated on Carla from the second she came downstairs.

She looked tremendously cute and beautiful wearing that beige dress. The falbala was barely enough to cover her thighs, and

every time she moved, he would catch a glimpse of her delicate legs. They were exceptionally long and alluring that he had to hopelessly control his urge to strip her clothes off.

Letting out a lengthy sigh of relief upon hearing her answer, Bonnie then turned around and looked at Terence.

He had to shift his gaze away from Carla. In the past, he had never really been the kind of man who was fascinated with the concept of sex. But after everything that happened yesterday, he had been having a hard time trying to hold back his impulse to get his hands all over that lush body of Carla every time he saw her.

Who could blame him though? After all, yesterday had actually been his very first time!

"Terence! I've asked you a couple of times before to allow me to stay with Carla here. If only I had been there with her, she would have had someone to talk to and wouldn't have felt so bored and gone out to find something to do. In that situation, there's no chance for her to have been abducted by those gangsters!

In any case, it could have been much, much worse. So, this time you have to listen to what I have to say. After all the horrible things that Carla had been through, we can't just let her stay alone in here any longer. I have to be by her side!"

Bonnie grabbed and shook Terence's arm, trying to grab his full attention in order to convince him.

Terence promptly freed his arm from Bonnie's grasp, giving her a cold stare. "Forget about it! Carla is safe now. And I'll make sure it stays that way by being with her everyday so that such things won't ever happen to her again!" he replied apathetically.

The minute he was done speaking, Bonnie was left dumbfounded at a loss for words.

As for Carla, to say that she was shocked as she looked at Terence would be such an understatement.

Those words which Terence suddenly blurted out surely hit Bonnie right where it hurt the most. Because, when all was said and done, she was still his fiancée.

After a period of awkward silence, Bonnie gave him a playful grin and complained, "What did you just say, Terence? Did I hear that right? You can't go around saying that anymore. I'm your rightful fiancée and I'm the person you're going to be spending your life with, not Carla, not anyone else. It doesn't matter anymore even if Carla had saved your life once before!

Don't you ever say that again. Please? It upsets me and makes me jealous!"

Although Bonnie was sincerely pouring her heart out, her voice was still gentle and soft as she spoke out against him. Leaning on Terence's chest, she asked him, "Terence, have you already forgotten the promise you made to me? You said you're going to be the one to take care of me until the end of time, right?"

Bonnie was suddenly in a state of panic after hearing Terence let those words slip out of his mouth.

Carla, watching as all of this was happening in front of her, just casually continued sipping in the yogurt and couldn't help chuckling.

"Do you hear her, Terence? I can't believe this. Stop saying that you're going to stay right beside me forever or any of that nonsense for that matter. It just isn't right! You keep on hurting your fiancée and make her take it the wrong way! This is not I wanted!"

Finishing off the yogurt, Carla still felt like her hunger hadn't been satisfied. So, she went back to the kitchen to look for something else to eat and found some freshly-made toast. She grabbed a slice and took a bite as she headed straight upstairs.

All of a sudden, there was a sullen look implanted on Terence's face. He retorted in a deadpan tone, "I already made a promise, and I will be taking care of Carla and Sean for as long as I'm alive. I've had enough of this! I'm feeling quite tired now. I'll just have my men send you home safely."

Carla walked slow-paced in order to eavesdrop on the rest of their conversation.

Bonnie was obviously feeling so infuriated by him and seemingly quite annoyed with the things that he had been spouting.

"No, I won't be coming home! At least not tonight. I'll be staying here whether you like it or not!"

She was eager to do as she was told by her brother, but Terence simply wouldn't give her the time of day no matter what. And given that she couldn't find a way to get rid of Carla, the only thing she could do was to focus on enticing Terence first.

When the time came that Terence found out about all of the things she had done, it would be too late for her and she wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

Bonnie knew without a single doubt that time was ticking on her.

Terence scoffed as he stared at her standing there with quite a resolute face.

"All right, go ahead. Do as you wish. I have plenty of vacant rooms here anyway," he replied flatly.

As soon as Terence left the kitchen, Bonnie could finally breathe much more clearly again. In spite of everything, at the very least, she managed to persuade him to let her stay.

In her heart, she believed there was still some hope left for as long as she could stay close to Terence.

She just couldn't bear to leave Carla and Terence alone to themselves at any cost. There was no telling what could happen if she let them freely live together under that same roof. If Terence got to know her just a little bit more, there was a possibility—no matter how small—that he might also fall for Bonnie. A lot of things were uncertain, but all she could do now was to try to do everything within her power.

At the end of the day, everyone knew that she was still Terence's real fiancée!
