Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 268

Carla closed her eyes to rest once again. But in a blink of an eye, she heard tires screeching on the road. It instantly woke her senses. She immediately opened her eyes and saw a truck driving straight towards their car.

She involuntarily grabbed Noah's shirt, and screamed, "Noah, watch out!"

Being distracted for a second, Noah saw the truck driving towards them as planned so he turned the steering wheel to the right.

But the truck seemed to lose control. It was still going to hit the car.

In a moment of desperation, Noah turned the wheel sharply so the car crashed into a guardrail.

Because of the huge impact, the guardrail burst open and the car was suddenly out of control as it drove down the slope.

Carla was overwhelmed.

The airbag restraint system was supposed to open whenever the car was faced with a colossal collision. As to be expected, the safety airbag at Noah's side opened, but the one at Carla's side didn't.

Carla had no idea why her safety airbag didn't open, nor did she have time to think about it.

Seeing the car drop in the free fall, her first reaction was to turn round and hold Noah's head while she shouted, "Noah! You saved me before, so it's my turn to save you now!"

The car rolled down the slope to the low cliff underneath.

Every time the car turned over and crashed into the ground, Carla closed her eyes and protected Noah by holding his head tightly. Somehow, in the face of death, her thoughts were occupied with Sean.

Although Terence would be devastated to lose her, a lot of girls were lining up to marry him. However, she was Sean's only relative in the world!

At her last moments of consciousness, she was overwhelmed with the thought that there were still a lot of things she wanted to do.

All of a sudden, the car stopped rolling down.

Carla was lucky because two trees in the mountain stopped the car from moving downhill any further.

However, Noah was stunned.

He never expected that in the moment of life and death, Carla would rather protect him, even at the cost of her life.

"Carla? Carla! Wake up, Carla!"

Noah tried to wake her up. She was still holding onto him even if she was already unconscious. He didn't dare to move an inch because the car was hanging between the trees. If he moved a little bit, the car would fall.

Gently, he lifted her head and found that blood was flowing from her face and her legs seemed to be stuck between the seat and the front of the car which had been smashed.

At that moment, he felt conflicted. He didn't know what to do anymore.

He placed two of his fingers carefully on top of Carla's neck pulse and found out that she was still breathing. The impact force of the car falling wasn't that strong enough.

Then, what Todd said to him last night came into his thoughts.

"Noah, if Miss Carla doesn't die from the crash, you can use the tools I've put in your car. As long as you kill her at that moment, no one will doubt you. They would think Miss Carla died from the car accident..."

Noah saw a round hammer used to fix cars which fell out on the car's floor. Although it seemed a little small, Noah knew that it was strong enough to kill Carla.

Noah's dark brown eyes turned to bloodthirsty deep red.

He held the hammer with his trembling hand and closed his eyes. He swallowed hard with his Adam's apple bobbing up and down in his throat.

As long as Carla died, he would achieve his ambitions.

The moment he had been adopted by the Hua Family, he had dreamed of claiming the Hua family's assets all to himself someday.

No one had threatened him on his way to success.

But then Carla showed up.

She didn't do anything wrong but she was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Hua.

What was worse, she didn't return his love.
