Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 161

Carla instinctively took a step back, hiding the suitcase behind.

Terence stood at the door, wearing a pair of dark sunglasses. His handsome face frowned when he saw the suitcase.

"Mr. Terence, you're here! "

Hearing the noise, Hasen's wife immediately pulled her back. "Carla, sit back. Let's talk later."

When Hasen saw Terence coming, he stood up and tidied his clothes. Lynn also stood up and looked to the door.

Lynn was drinking her glass of water, and when Terence entered the room, she was startled and nearly choked.

Her mother shot her a fierce look and Lynn immediately put her hand over her mouth.

Lynn had assumed that Terence must have been some short fat man, otherwise, how could he fall in love with Carla?

However, the moment she laid eyes on him, she was stunned at how handsome, tall, and elegant he was. She couldn't believe her eyes.

Never before had she seen a man like that. Dignified and graceful.

"Mr. Terence, I've heard a lot about you. Please, have a seat," said Hasen as he stepped forward to pull the chair out for him.

Terence sat down and glanced around without removing his sunglasses. He frowned and said, "Let's cut to the chase. What do you want?"

His aloof attitude intimidated the family of three.

He thought when Carla asked him out for lunch, it would be just the two of them.

But when he came in and saw the others he was disappointed.

One thing that really had irritated him

was that Carla was apparently going to leave as she had a suitcase with her. 'Where was she going?'

She didn't even try to make things work. Instead, she decided to leave without even telling him.

Terence's anger mounted.

"Waiter, serve the dishes quickly." Hasen went to call the waiter and then sat down facing Terence.

"Mr. Terence, I'm Carla's uncle. That's my wife and this is my daughter Lynn. We didn't want to bother you. But thinking of my daughter's future, I had no choice but to ask for your help. Mr. Terence, you're close to Carla. So please, can you help us?"

said Hasen while looking at his daughter like a worried father would.

These days parents were trying every possible means to get their children into the best universities to carve them a brighter future.

The An family had high power in JA City. If Terence agreed to help, Lynn could go to any university she wanted.

So, they made a great effort to come to JA City and meet him personally.

Whether he would agree to help or not at least, they could say that they had tried.

"Mr. Terence, my daughter Lynn is very hardworking. But the entrance to JA University is very demanding. She couldn't make it with her entrance exam. We've tried every other possible means, and now we have no choice but to ask you—"

said Hasen with a worried expression. Then he continued, "If JA University is asking for too much, then the Medical University of JA will also work. My only wish is to give my daughter a good future."

Then he looked up at Terence imploringly.

"It wouldn't be difficult to do," said Terence casually. He lit a cigarette and puffed. "But why should I help you?"

It would indeed be a piece of cake to achieve. All that Terence would have to do was just say the word, and it would be done. The An family was very influential in JA City.

The moment Terence put the question to him, Hasen and his wife looked at each other nervously, their hearts tightened, and they glanced at Carla who was sitting quietly.

Judging from his tone, it seemed that Terence didn't have such close ties with Carla as they had initially thought.

Hasen's wife tugged at Carla's clothes under the table signaling for her to say something for them.

Carla knew that Terence was pretending to put on airs. He wanted her to give in.

But she didn't want to be involved in any of this, because that would mean that she would have to owe Terence a favor in return.

But her uncle came to her in person putting her in a very difficult position.

"Carla?" Hasen called out her name in a low voice because she wasn't helping out at all.

Carla heaved a deep sigh and stood up and walked to Terence.
