Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 181

After ending the call with Terence, Carla kept wondering about what he had said to her.

If Noah approached her with a purpose just as Terence said, then what did he want?

What could he get from her? She was just an ordinary girl.

Carla sensed that Terence was holding something back from her. Things just weren't adding up, and it was becoming more and more evident as time passed that there was definitely something going on.

It was becoming all so overwhelming for her, and her mind was a mess thinking about it all.

'Just forget it! Stop thinking about it, ' she thought to herself, feeling frustrated.

No matter what the secret was, the truth would always managed to surface in the end.

The next morning, when Carla arrived at the company, her desk was already stacked high with work waiting for her to do. She was only slightly injured and didn't want to be the reason to slow everyone else down.

"Carla! The manager wants to see you in his office, now," informed one of her colleagues.

"Okay, I'll be there soon."

Carla put down the order sheets on the desk and headed out towards the manager's office.

"You wanted to see me, sir?"

asked Carla as she pushed the door open. The manager was engrossed in his work behind the desk. When he heard her, he said, "Carla, come in.

Please, have a seat." Manager Zhao placed a thick file in front of Carla he then rested back onto his seat and said, "Carla, there's a package of high standard goods that needs someone to supervise in the factory personally.

I was wondering if it would be convenient for you to take a business trip? The factory is in a newly developed suburban area in HA City. Naturally, the business trip will be subsidized. Can you make it?"

Carla took the file and looked through it. Since she had been working in the company for a while now, she knew the importance that this package of goods had. It needed to be handled with high precision. Any deviation would have a significant influence on the end result.

It had happened several times in the past. However, this time, the order was substantial, so it was needless to say that the company expected to arrange for Carla to have a business trip to make sure everything ran smoothly.

"It won't be long. A week at most. The key is to make sure that their products match our sample products. If there's any problem ask them to fix it and deliver the goods in time," added Manager Zhao.

Carla thought about it and nodded. "Okay, no problem."

Since Sean wasn't at home with her, then she really didn't have an excuse not to accept the offer to go.

"All right. You can leave work earlier today. Go home and pack what you need for the trip, and you will be leaving tomorrow morning. I will send the rest of the details like the address of the factory and the booked hotel to your phone later.

You can choose the method of transport that you would prefer to get there. Either train, coach, or by plane. It doesn't matter; the company will pay for it,"

said Manager Zhao nodding to her approvingly. He admired Carla because she was hardworking and wasn't afraid to get her hands dirty if the task required it. Unlike some other urban girls who wouldn't dream of even breaking a nail.

"Carla, once you come back from this business trip I will give your salary a raise. Even though you haven't worked here for very long, you have proven to be an excellent employee and very good at your job. We really need more people like you."

Carla was flattered and smiled awkwardly. She felt a little guilty because she was planning on resigning from the company by next month.

Sean was alone in JA City. How could she leave him there by himself and not worry about him?

In the afternoon, when Carla had left work earlier, she bought some items that she would need for the trip. Since it was still too early to go home, she decided to pay Karen a visit.

When she had finished visiting Karen, it was already getting dark outside. So she headed for home.

"Noah?" asked Carla when she saw him standing beside his Land Rover, which was parked under her apartment building.

'What is he doing here?' wondered Carla.

When Noah saw her approaching, he gave her a soft charming smile that would even mesmerize middle-aged women that were passing by. "I'm worried about you. Are you getting better?" asked Noah.

Carla smiled and nodded back. "I'm fine. It's just a small injury. Noah, you really didn't need to come here and visit me in person."

"It's nothing. I'm free today, so I came here to have dinner with you. You haven't had dinner yet, have you?" asked Noah with his beautiful hazel eyes gazing at her softly.

Carla hesitated for a moment and then replied with a warm smile, "No, I haven't had dinner yet. But— will Julie be okay with you and me having dinner alone?"

Although Julie didn't like Carla, Carla could understand why. Carla didn't actually hate her.
