Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 316

After Carla returned to the hotel room upstairs, she allowed the makeup artist who was keeping her company for so long to go down first.

Carla felt a little tired. She sat down on the chair to rest for a while and grab some me-time as well.

She stared out of the window blankly. Carla had to put on a happy face in front of the relatives and shareholders even though she did not feel the same way in her heart.

However, when she was alone, all by herself, she didn't need to pretend anymore. Carla heaved a heavy sigh still maintaining the same dazed glance at the window.

Carla sat there in absolute solitude, oblivious to the world around her as if the whole world was coming to a standstill.

"I always thought you were reluctant. But when I saw you smiling so happily beside Noah, I finally felt that he was also quite suitable for you..."

Suddenly a familiar voice brought Carla out of her reverie.

Carla got startled and sprang upright from her seat. Then she looked up to the mirror and saw Terence walking out of the restroom behind her.

Terence continued while walking toward her, "Carla, I really don't want to think that he is suitable for you. Do you understand me?"

Terence walked toward her, bent over and gently hugged her from behind. He leaned his head on her shoulder.

Carla hurriedly turned to look at him. But as soon as she turned, her lips met his thin lips without any expectation.

She seemed to be stunned and didn't move. Terence took advantage of the opportunity to hold the back of her head with one hand. And then the strong domineering kiss opened Carla's lips. Soon a familiar smell crazily occupied her mouth.

Terence kissed Carla wildly as if to vent his dissatisfaction. After a long time, he finally released her lips.

"Carla, I can't believe that you were in my arms yesterday, but today you are getting engaged with other man. So I want to see it with my own eyes!" he said with his head resting over her forehead.

His brows wrinkled, which looked like a tight knot that couldn't be dissolved even in a thousand years.

"Terence, don't be sad... Now that I've made my choice, I have to stick to my commitment. Trust me! I won't get married to anyone except you! Absolutely not!" Carla said with tears rolling down her bright eyes.

She caressed his handsome face softly. Her loving touch made the creases between Terrence's eyebrows ease out a little.

She knew that when she made such a choice, Terrence was the one who received the most unfair treatment.

"Of course, I believe you. But I am jealous! I am jealous that he can rightfully stand beside you. I am jealous that he can protect you and love you as your fiance!"

Terence looked into Carla's eyes as he spoke. There was a trace of pain floating in his eyes. He caressed her chin with one hand and looked at her tearing eyes.

"I'm scared that you will fall in love with him after you get along with him for a long time. And if that happens, what should I do then?"

He cried out, "Carla, Tell me, what should I do?"

Terrence's voice creaked. His face had insecurity written all over it. He witnessed Noah's kind and loving gesture to Carla.

He could feel that Noah's kindness and care towards her were in no way less than his.

Love is not absolute.

He had a lot of methods to win Noah in business, but he had no control over Carla's heart and whom she would love. Terence had no way to ensure Carla wouldn't fall in love with Noah given his caring and considerate association.

Carla shook her head and looked at his dark eyes. She took a deep breath and said, "Impossible! If I was to like him, I should have liked him long ago! Terence, I'm yours, forever!"

Even when she was confused and indecisive about the relationship between her and Noah, she had clearly realized that they were not likely to become lovers.

No matter how close they were, they could only be like brother and sister at most. She could not imagine falling in love with Noah even in her wildest dream.

Just then, there was a knock on the door and someone in a low voice said, "Mr. Terence, someone is coming."

Terence glanced at the door, straightened up and looked at her.

He said, "Carla, remember! You can't fall in love with him!"

Then he turned and walked towards the window.

She watched with her eyes wide open as he stepped on the window, looked back at her and then jumped down without hesitation.
