Terence was staying at his Seaview Villa in JA City.
He was just leisurely reading a book in the study when he sneezed all of a sudden. Looking up at the clock to check the time, he realized that it was already eleven o'clock in the evening.
He unlocked his phone, only to find out that Carla still hadn't replied to any of his texts at all. Right then and there, a smile slowly crept onto his face as he helplessly shook his head thinking that she was, without a doubt, still holding a grudge against him.
Actually, he had sent her a couple of messages already, and yet she was still being so stubborn, not bothering to give him so much as a single response.
It took the best of him just to resist the urge to call her. He was afraid that if Noah were to hear the call, he might get the wrong impression and Carla would end up getting in trouble. All things considered, she wasn't by herself, so her safety should be his top priority.
"Mr. Terence, some news coming from HA City arrives."
Rainer could tell that he hadn't fallen asleep yet, given that there was still a light on in the study. So, he decided to come in and give some updates to his boss.
"What's it about?" After seemingly being lost in thought, Terence immediately came to his senses and turned to look at Rainer who was approaching him.
"Miss Carla has achieved great success in the Hua Group, Mr. Terence. And things went on much more smoothly than we have anticipated. As soon as Miss Carla's proposal was implemented, they've seen a significant improvement in their sales."
A wide grin appeared on Rainer's face as he was informing his boss about the good news.
Terence didn't seem to be much too astounded by it. With a Cheshire cat smile on his face, he proudly remarked, "It's hardly surprising at all. This is my girl we're talking about after all. She has this sort of ability and potential. I knew it all along."
As his boss was wallowing in his knack for finding the potential of other people, Rainer quietly lowered his gaze.
He pondered to himself, 'Just who was it that has kept on saying that Miss Carla is silly?
In spite of that, even though he believes Miss Carla to be a bit foolish, not once has Mr. Terence ever thought of giving up on her. And now he is actually even feeling very proud of her. It's quite amusing!'
From out of the blue, something seemed to have popped up in his mind and he turned serious in an instant. He anxiously added, "Apart from that, Nola has told us over the phone that Noah was already aware of the fact that Miss Carla was carrying a child in her womb."
As soon as Rainer stopped talking, Terence heavily slammed his hands onto the table and went into a fit of rage. With his eyebrows deeply knitted, he asked, "What do you mean? Noah already knew? Then, how is Carla doing right now? Is she alright? Get the plane ready for me right away. I have to fly to look for her and make sure she's safe."
At that point, Terence had become so frantic about Carla's safety. Only God knew what Noah could end up doing to Carla after finding out that she was pregnant. In Terence's mind, Noah wasn't a nice person in any way. And he truly believed that Noah was capable of hurting Carla.
"Mr. Terence, please get a hold of yourself. You don't have to worry. There's something else I have to tell you."
