Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 349

Noah laughed hard and looked away. He focused his eyes on the road ahead and then said in a low voice, "I don't trust you, Carla."

Caught unguarded, Carla bit her bottom lip for a second and cleared her throat. She badly needed to rebut. Thus, she answered, "The feeling is mutual."

She quickly turned away from Noah and didn't dare to look at him anymore.

Noah's laughter went louder with what she said. He gave her a glimpse and added, "I don't trust you. Just like now. I don't believe that you are not here for him. It's just that I can't turn you down.

And do you know what's worse?

Although I know that I can't trust you, I can't control my heart from believing you. Uncertain trust is dangerous."

Carla was speechless for a second. Blinking her eyes, she smiled and asked, "So you're saying that you're still believing me, right?"

Her eyes were clear and gorgeous. Thus, Noah couldn't help but look at her one more time. He withdrew one of his hands from the steering wheel and then held her hand. He replied in a tender voice, "I don't care about what happened in the past. I love you now. That's the only thing I'm certain about."

It was the basic reason why he could tolerate all her behaviors.

Lifting the corners of her lips, Carla didn't say anything. She discreetly pulled her hand from Noah's hold instead and then looked out of the car's window. Lost in her thoughts, she unconsciously held her chin.

She was smiling with her eyes glimmering. However, only she knew that she wasn't happy at all.

She might have Noah's love but she didn't love Noah the same way.

Love was always a selfish thing anyway. She could just sense that she and Noah were heading for a tragedy.

The scenery outside the car was passing by like a panorama. It was about an hour later that they reached HA City.

Meanwhile, in JA City, Terence just sent Rena home.

However, Rena wouldn't let go of Terence.

She had him locked inside her arms as if someone would steal him any time.

"Shall we visit your house, Terence?"

Hearing the woman, Terence patted her shoulder to comfort her. He then replied, "It's too late. You need to get inside now or your parents would get worried."

Displeased with his answer, Rena lowered her sight, landing on Terence's lips. She requested in a timid voice, "Fine. Kiss me and I'll leave."

Terence furrowed his eyebrows slightly. It was good that no one noticed how his expression changed for a while. Then, as if obliged, he lowered his head and kissed Rena on her forehead. "Done. Go home now."

"No! Not on the forehead. Here!"

Rena protested and pointed to her lips. She was clearly dissatisfied with what Terence did. It was obvious that she wouldn't get out of the car unless he did what she wanted.

"Ahem." Rainer broke the embarrassing moment by faking a cough. He checked the time and then reminded, "You promised Mr. Nicholas that you would visit him this evening, Mr. Terence."

Left with no choice, Rena slowly removed her arms around Terence and opened the car door sluggishly. She wasn't happy at all. She couldn't even believe how this night ended up. "I'll text you later, okay? Remember to check your phone once you get home."

"Sure. Goodnight." After Terence said goodbye to Rena, who had gotten out of the car, Rainer immediately drove the car away.

A deep sigh escaped Terence's chest as soon as Rena was out of sight. Thank goodness that he didn't need to pretend anymore. He suddenly looked drained.

Noticing that, Rainer passed a towel to him. Terence quickly grabbed the towel and wiped his lips hard. His fingers were gripping the towel hard as if he was dumping all his frustrations on it.

"Mr. Terence, should I send the painting to Mr. Nicholas now?" asked Rainer. It was too late to interrupt Nicholas, who must be sleeping already by that time. The only reason why he had said they would visit the old man was to give Terence an excuse to leave as soon as possible.

Terence just coldly looked at Rainer upon hearing him. He was clearly annoyed.

Rainer didn't dare talk anymore and chose to shut his mouth.

"You know what, Rainer? The Seaview Villa gets this perfect place for the painting. How about we put the painting there temporarily? We can just wait for the right time to send it later?"

said Nathan as he tried to lighten the ambiance inside the car.

"Yeah. You are right,"

Rainer answered while wiping the sweat off his forehead. He could still remember how Carla bid for the painting. It was the reason why Terence went all out in the auction. It was clear that Terence only wanted the painting because Carla loved it. He took it because he wanted to show her how he would give it to another woman. However, it was more than obvious now that he couldn't betray Carla at all. He didn't even let Rena touch the painting once.

On the other hand, Nathan already knew all about it before. That was why he couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard Rainer ask about the painting earlier. He just couldn't believe how stupid Rainer was sometimes.

Terence took a shower as soon as they arrived at the Seaview Villa.

There were a couple of new messages on his phone when he stepped out of the bathroom.

Most of them were from Rena. It even included two selfies of her in nothing but a bath towel. Along with the pictures were pink hearts and a good night message.

Terence immediately deleted the selfies without any hesitation. Wiping his hair, he sat down on the couch and opened another message.
