Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 232

Catching Carla completely off guard, Johnny suddenly pinched her waist. This caused her to let out a soft groan due to the pain.

Overhearing the sound of her voice, Marcus abruptly stopped in his tracks.

"Johnny, if you're planning on fooling around, go take her back to your room. Have some decency, will you? There are people here watching."

"I understand," Johnny shrugged, acting so disappointed. Her voice actually got his engine running that he had a hard time trying to resist the temptation. He shot her a big smile and said, "Well, I guess I'll be taking my leave now, Marcus."

After saying that, Johnny sensually caressed her face. Then, he grabbed her by the arm and led her out of the room as she was dragging her feet.

Carla was scampering close behind him, with her face red-flushed. It was apparent how flustered she was as she received the unsolicited glances of so many pairs of eyes.

"Make sure not to look back." Johnny guided her, holding her delicate waist and whispered under his breath, "Marcus is quite skeptical and very perceptive. If he realizes something seems off, make no doubt about it, you're going to get yourself in an awful lot of trouble."

Carla had no other choice but to play along and went along with him downstairs. He shoved her into his car a bit hastily, got into the driver's seat in an instant, and flung the door shut, putting the pedal to the metal. The car immediately accelerated down the highway, making Carla feel as though they had been moving at breakneck speed.

"Johnny, pull over!"

Johnny glared at Carla and snuffled, then he finally pulled over to the side of the road. Upon coming to a halt, he turned to look at Carla, taking his hands off of the steering wheel. "If I'm completely being honest, I truly admire your bravery," he smiled smugly. "How could you just sneak around and get into NF all by yourself like it was nobody's business? Do you even realize some unthinkable things would have befallen you if I didn't happen to be there?"

"Yes. I sincerely appreciate your kindness, Mr. Johnny," she responded, albeit quite apathetically. Unzipping the black backpack she had been keeping handy and inspecting its contents, she then proceeded to place it on the backseat and glanced in front of her.

"Would you mind doing me just one more favor? Johnny, you've been scheming things along with Marcus all this time. I'll let you off the hook despite everything that you've done if you lend me a hand in locating Terence."

Johnny responded, seemingly disparaging, "Can't you just use your head, stupid woman? A month has already passed since Terence had gone missing. There's a good chance that he has died off somewhere by now. I think it would be best for you to just stop wasting your time." Hearing his words, Carla shrugged it off in dissent and utter not a single word. "Oh, what? Do you plan to aimlessly die for your love or some other foolish reason like that?" Johnny remarked, shooting her an intense stare.

Carla simply lowered her gaze, biting her lip quite hard. Then, she reached for the double fish bracelet she had on her wrist and rubbed it tenderly.

"I guess you could say that. If he had really gotten killed, I would gladly lie right next to him in the grave. There's nothing in this world can ever tear us apart, not even death itself!" Carla exclaimed in a relatively low but somehow resolute voice.
