Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 160

Rainer put his phone on speaker so Terence could hear their conversation. Upon hearing what Carla had said, Rainer stared at Terence, waiting for the man's reaction.

Terence kept silent for a short while and gestured for Rainer to tell Carla that he would be there.

"Well, unfortunately, Mr. Terence has a lunch appointment with an important client, so I'm afraid he will be unavailable..." Rainer feigned disappointment. After seeing Terence's look, he quickly added, "But Miss Carla is an exception. Since you're asking him out, I'm sure he will be there."

The moment Rainer hung up, Terence threw the pen that he was holding into Rainer's direction.

"Rainer, do you want to get your ass kicked?" Terence half-jokingly asked.

Rainer picked up the pen and walked towards Terence with a smile. "Mr. Terence, I know there is trouble between you and Miss Carla right now. I'm just trying to make you look really cool.

It's not always a good move to just give and push your affections towards her. Sometimes, you need to take a step back and pull. You know, act a little cold towards her. Only in this way will she realize how it feels when you're not there. Before you know it, she'll be the one chasing you," Rainer explained in detail.

If looks could kill, Rainer would have been dead with how hard Terence was looking at him. After a while, Terence looked at his watch and saw that it was just past ten in the morning. Then, he stood up and walked out of his office.

"Mr. Terence, what are you going to do?" Rainer asked.

"Take a bath and get changed," Terence responded before he could fully leave the office.

Rainer was left alone in the office, speechless.

In the XH Restaurant, Hasen and his wife were eagerly waiting for Terence. They had already ordered and asked the waiter not to serve the dishes until Terence arrived.

At their table, no one was really talking much. One would not have guessed that they were all related by blood. Lynn and Carla sat next to each other but had just been awkwardly staring everywhere since they arrived. As a matter of fact, Lynn was just a few years younger than Carla. But she didn't have very much in common to talk with Carla or even to bond with her.

But that could be because, in Lynn's heart, she actually despised Carla.

Before she came to JA City, Carla was just a delivery worker. What was worse, she also had to raise her younger brother. So Lynn didn't want anything to do with her, for she was afraid that Carla would ask for her help. She thought that if she were to build a good relationship with Carla, it would just be a burden.

That was until they heard that Carla became Mr. Terence's girlfriend. She saw that there was now something to gain from being close with Carla, so they came to see her. Otherwise, they wouldn't have come looking for her or even bothered to talk with her.

'Terence's the reason why Carla can live in JA City. Without Terence, she's just a nobody. If she stayed with him for a longer period, people will just look at her as the other woman. So in reality, if I were Carla, there would be nothing to be proud of, ' Lynn thought to make herself feel better.

Lynn believed that she was different from Carla because she would become a doctor in the future. In her mind, she would be much more promising and more successful than Carla.

"Carla, why do you want to break up with Mr. Terence? I heard that Mr. Terence loved you very much. How could you end your relationship so easily?" Lynn tried to make conversations as she was feeling a little bored already.

Although Carla had never mentioned that she broke up with Terence, her aunt just jumped to that conclusion.

When Carla didn't respond, Hasen glared at his daughter and raised his voice a little, "Stop talking nonsense. Carla is still young. There are a lot of admirable men for her."

Hasen's wife turned to Carla and tried to comfort her, "Carla, you're a girl of strong character. But sometimes I think you should change a little, especially in front of Mr. Terence. You're lucky to be his girlfriend. Don't be so stubborn. As long as you apologize to him, he won't break up with you so easily.

As your aunt, I want to give you some advice, though it may be a little harsh for you. Don't ask for more than he can give. Don't ask him to marry you right now. Terence comes from a noble family, while you come from a poor family. That is to say, you are absolutely out of his league. Since he loves you and is willing to give you money and food, then you should learn to be contented."

Hasen's wife guessed that Terence must be angry at Carla because she was pressuring him to marry her. As a result, he kicked her out of his villa.

Carla couldn't bear it anymore. She suddenly stood up and said, "Uncle, auntie, since I already made a call to Terence, I'll be leaving now." After these words, she immediately took her luggage and started to walk out.

"Please stay here with us," her aunt begged her. Upon hearing Carla's words, she hastily stood up, approached Carla and continued, "You're the reason Terence is coming here. He doesn't know us. If you leave, he wouldn't pay any attention to us. Carla, please be patient. Just do me this favor, okay?"

Carla tried to calm herself. She took a few deep breathes and then stated, "Uncle, Terence will show up in a minute. When he arrives here, you can say whatever you want to say to him. I'll be leaving now."

Then, she immediately turned away from them all and headed towards the exit.

When she opened the door of the private room, Terence was standing at the doorway.
