Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 131

Bonnie's eyes gazed at Terence who stood behind Carla through the cellphone camera. She noticed how soft his eyes were when he looked at Carla. She chewed her lip as jealousy gradually filled her chest.

She ignored that feeling and tapped the phone several times.

After the photo was taken, it looked a bit different. It was hard to tell whether it was because of the lighting or the angle.

Carla took the phone so she could see the photo. It seemed like Terence, who stood behind her, wrapped his arms around her waist.

Nathan and Rainer looked like two door-gods due to the expression of their faces. Nathan had a solemn expression while Rainer flashed a gleaming smile.

"This photo looks so good. And I applaud Bonnie for taking such a wonderful photo,"

Terence looked at the photo and glanced at Bonnie as he praised her.

The unpleasant look on Bonnie's face faded a bit and it turned into a smile. She was kind of distracted while she walked all by herself.

"Ms. Carla, if you would be so kind, please send the photo to me! This is the first time I got a photo with Mr. Terence and I want to frame it!"

Rainer said with an enthusiastic smile.

"Alright. I will be sending it!"

Carla replied and sent it to Rainer via WeChat.

At long last, their group had finally reached the mountaintop.

Carla smiled as she couldn't help but admire the majestic scenery before her. There was a cave with stones elegantly dipped around it.

Some caves were embellished with lighting, making it appear as if it was sparkling. Some caves were beautiful but not suitable for sightseeing due to being too dark.

There was a beautiful pavilion near a babbling spring. The special light made the running water look as if it was sparkling.

Furthermore, some caves were rebuilt into commercial establishments such as restaurants, hotels, and entertainment places.

"Don't take too many photos or else you'll drain your battery."

Terence reminded Carla as she was snapping away ceaselessly.

As he finished his word, she shouted, "Ah!

Ugh. You jinxed me!"

She groaned. If she could remember correctly, she had charged her phone up a bit inside the car. But unfortunately, it was far from enough and because she kept snapping photos along the way, her phone died just when she was about to take another photo.

Terence glanced at her phone and said, "It's alright. You can use mine."

Carla put her phone back into her pocket and stretched out her hand towards him, "Very well then. Give it to me."

Terence shook his head with an amused smile and handed his phone to her.

"Is there any private information that I should avoid in your phone?" Carla then asked him to tell her the phone's passwords. She glanced at him with a questioning look.

"You are free to search anything in my phone," Terence took the phone from her with a smile, typed in his password, and handed it back to her.

Bonnie just came out from the wash room and saw the interaction between them.

She was not in a hurry to come out. After all, she was curious on how familiar they were towards each other.

When Terence mentioned how he got acquainted with Carla, Bonnie could feel that he didn't tell her the whole truth.

Bonnie had a gut feeling that Terence and Carla must have been through a lot together before she came into the picture. They wouldn't have been so intimate if they were just regular friends like they said.

It had been only a month since Bonnie got engaged to Terence. At this point, she suddenly realized that she hardly knew much about Terence and there was little hope that he would love her back.

She felt afraid of losing him. But at this point, Terence was only driving needles into her heart.

When she turned around, she saw a familiar woman walking out from the wash room.

"Julie?"

Bonnie called out to the woman and that woman turned her head at Bonnie. "Oh, Bonnie!" Julie exclaimed as she walked towards Bonnie. "What brings you here? Is my elder brother here too?"

Julie gave her a hug and smiled, "Of course. I came here with Noah."

"Thank goodness!"

Bonnie was in an ecstasy of joy. It was a great timing since she was feeling indecisive and needed somebody to help her.

Julie was one of Noah's girlfriends. Wherever he went, he would always bring her with him. That was why Bonnie was certain that Noah was around when she saw Julie.

In the Hua family, they behaved as if they are each to their own. Yet Noah still took good care of his little sister.

Maybe he considered Bonnie as a woman without much ambitions so she would not pose a threat against him.

After coming out of wash room, Bonnie walked excitedly towards Terence and Carla. She grabbed Terence's hands and pulled him towards her.

"Oh, Terence, I just saw my elder brother's girlfriend. My elder brother is also here! Can we go see them? Please?"

Bonnie begged and even showed puppy eyes.

She badly needed Noah's advice. Without it, she would remain confused.

"So he's here?" Terence knew which elder brother she was talking about. In the Hua family, the relationship between her and Noah was not bad. Suffice it to say, she was the only person in that family who was close to Noah. "Very well. Let's go and greet them."

Bonnie nodded enthusiastically with a large smile on her face.

Carla listened to them in silence.

She thought, 'Noah's here too?'

She gazed at Julie. It was no surprise that Noah would take interest with a woman like Julie.

She decided to come along with them since she wasn't familiar with the place.

Noah was eating peacefully at the other restaurant.

Julie had went out for a walk after finishing her meal. He didn't expect that she would walk back with some unexpected guests though.

When he saw Terence from a distance, he stood up and offered a handshake, "Mr. Terence! It's been a while!"

Terence shook his hand, "Nice to see you too, Mr. Noah."

"Noah!" Bonnie greeted and walked towards him to cling on to his arm, "I haven't seen you for a long time! What have you been doing so far? You never sent me any messages!"

Noah gave her arm a pat and smiled, "I have been a very busy man recently. I am always in a business trip. Besides, you're already engaged to Mr. Terence. You can't always stay with me."

Bonnie felt her cheeks heat up and glanced at Terence secretly.

Carla finally caught up to them.

'I don't need to be here, ' She thought as she observed them.

Her presence wasn't needed anyways.

However, her appearance surprised Noah. His dark eyes glittered.

He never thought he would see her there.

Carla gave him a lovely smile as a greeting.

"Miss Carla, how unexpected! You're here too!"

Upon hearing those words, Carla almost lost balance but she managed to get back at her feet quickly.

"Oh my!" Carla exclaimed, still with a smile. "What a coincidence, Mr. Noah."

"Well, indeed it is. Whom are you with?" Noah glanced at Terence.

Terence smiled, stretched out his arm, and pulled Carla toward him, "She comes here with me. I didn't expect you knew each other though."

Terence actually knew that Noah knew Carla, but Bonnie and Julie didn't know the truth so he pretended to be surprised.

Noah noticed Terence's hand on her shoulder. He was so clever that he knew it was a declaration.

After all he knew their fellow men so well.

Even though Bonnie was already engaged to him, he had someone else inside his mind.

Noah thought, 'Looks like things are getting really interesting now.'
