Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 206

"Promise me, Carla. Don't put your life at risk the way you just did. You really scared me, taking Sean with you and leaving like this. You know I can't bear to see you two get hurt," Terence sincerely told her. Terence didn't want to blame her. He was actually rejoicing inside for getting Carla back in one piece when the girl just drove a car out without having a license. But in all honestly, that was the least of his concerns. What was more important for him was she didn't really know how to drive properly. Terence didn't know what he could do if something happened particularly because Carla did it from misunderstanding his actions. He could really thank his lucky stars that Carla and Sean were both safe.

Carla's eyes glared at him. She cocked her head to one side and stated, "Don't try to avoid the topic. I wouldn't have left if you hadn't pissed me off."

Her temper quickly boiled as she listened to Terence.

However, if she were being honest, she also got scared of her recklessness.

"Yeah, I admit. It was my fault," Terence softly said. Terence didn't argue with her. He just apologized and carried Carla in his arms all the way upstairs.

Once he managed to get Carla into his room, Terence locked the door really tight, in case she wanted to run away again.

"I assume you're thirsty. Here, have some milk..." Terence told her as he handed her the glass of milk that he fetched. Carla had been on the plane for the whole night and flew into a series of anger afterward. So her belly must be rumbling in hunger.

Carla ignored his kindness. She just sat on the sofa, sulking, with her arms wrapped around her legs.

Terence sat beside her and sighed very softly. He started to explain, "It was really a long story. I never wanted you to know about her at first, since I didn't know about this at that time.

And I didn't think that I would meet her ever again.

I didn't know where she was until that time when I went to see you in HA City. I went to Entertainment Club first, and that was where I met her."

Hearing this, Carla suddenly turned to Terence. She thought, 'Entertainment Club? Was she the woman who worked there?'

"Don't be too surprised. You've seen her before. She was the girl in the photo, remember that? Her name is Erica Su. Everyone in the Entertainment Club calls her Erica," Terence continued to clarify.

Carla's eyes widened as words came out of Terence's mouth.

'Erica? !' The name rang in Carla's head.

"I assume you must know what she does for a living. So it must be obvious by now that nothing would ever happen between her and me. I went to see her because I found out that I had some responsibility regarding her present situation. Therefore, I asked my men to bring her here," Terence patiently narrated.

As he carefully watched Carla, he realized that she hadn't recovered from being in shock. So he stuffed the glass of milk into her hands and said, "Have some. It will help ease your mind. The rest of the things that I'm about to tell you will be more surprising."

Indeed, it was too much for Carla. She took a sip of the milk and instantly felt a slight sense of satisfaction. Terence was right about her hunger.

After seeing her reaction to the milk, Terence continued, "Back when I was serving in the army, my head got injured in a field training. Part of my memory was lost. I couldn't remember everything about her and some other things for that matter. After that, my grandpa sent her away.

Ever since then, I haven't seen her until recently."

Terence heaved a heavy sigh. All along, Carla thought that HA City was her bad luck since a lot of unpleasant things happened while she was there. She now realized that the place was also Terence's bad luck.

"All those days, I went to see her because I wanted to know what exactly happened at that time. I don't want to stay unaware of what I have done before. And I don't want you to stay unaware either," Terence concluded.

Although it had been ten years since then, he still wanted Carla to know everything about him.

That was why he was so eager to know everything that happened between him and Erica.

A moment passed before Carla could react. She raised her eyebrows and stated, "Do you think I'm a child? Like I'm two years old or so? We're not in a TV show Terence. People don't just get knocked on the head and lose their memory."

Terence nodded. He didn't say anything to defend himself. Instead, he stood up, grabbed something from the study and placed it in front of Carla.

"What's this?" She asked after glancing at what Terence had just brought.

"The diagnosis. This one is from that accident. There is medical proof for partial memory loss. I didn't make it all up. And I only lost a very small part of my memory. It was quite common clinically,"

Terence said as he pointed at the diagnosis to let Carla read it for herself.

Carla took it and she started reading. There was a lot that she couldn't understand in the diagnosis, but she looked at the date. It was ten years ago, which matched Terence's story. So, Terence was telling the truth.

With that proof, Carla's temper slowly started to die down.

"Are you sure this is the only woman that you forgot about?" she then asked as she watched Terence in doubt.

She didn't look forward to knowing another so-called "first love" of Terence's.

"Can you please try to remember carefully? Are you sure you remember everyone else except this woman? Or maybe next time, a woman will just bring one of your sons out of nowhere," Carla sternly stated.

Terence was speechless. Then, he smiled at Carla and replied, "I think you're the one who has watched too many TV shows and movies, Carla.

But for your sake, I could swear I remember everything else clearly. I called it an accident because it couldn't happen a few times."
