Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 403

After finishing her words, Carla immediately pushed away Terence, who was pressing on her. She quickly put on her clothes and walked towards the door.

She was already several steps away when she turned back to Terence and found him still standing in the same place.

She rushed to him and pulled him by his hand to the door.

"Why are you stopping me?"

asked Carla when Terence stopped her all of a sudden. They were already walking out of the room and were about to go downstairs.

Terence didn't intend to lie to her and answered honestly, "I was planning to let you go out first."

Only then did Carla realize what he was trying to say. However, it was too late for her to take any action.

Andrea was sitting before the table when she noticed them standing on the stairs. Thus, she coughed to let the two know of her presence. She then gazed at them.

Carla reached up to tie her messy hair and then smoothed her crumpled clothes with her palm as quick as she could. A bit flustered, she glared at Terence and thought, 'Why didn't he tell me this earlier? Now it's very embarrassing!'

"Well, come and sit with me, guys. It's time to eat," said Andrea while pointing to the chairs next to her.

Carla and Terence walked to the table and took their seats.

One of Carla's habits was to drink something before she ate. However, she almost sprayed the water in her mouth the moment she glanced at the pile of gifts above the table.

She told Terence not to come empty-handed, but she didn't tell him to buy the mall!

The gifts almost occupied the whole table.

Noticing Carla's reaction, Andrea smiled at Terence and said in a pleased tone, "You're so kind to bring these many gifts. Next time, just come here directly, okay? You don't need to bother yourself bringing so many things."

In truth, Andrea just said that out of politeness. She was actually very satisfied and pleased with Terence, her future son-in-law.

The more gifts he brought, the more it displayed how much he loved and cherished Carla.

"Not at all. There is still a lot in the plane and these are just some that I have picked out to bring here." Terence smiled and picked up his chopsticks to eat.

Carla could tell from his words that he was subtly showing off. Thus, she glanced at him and secretly smiled. She took some food for herself and then slid a bit closer to him. She then asked in a low yet clear voice, "Is this how you also behaved when you got engaged with Bonnie?"

Terence, who was busy eating and adding food to her bowl, froze upon hearing what Carla said. He looked at her seriously and then glanced at Andrea, who was just opposite him. He had no plans of hiding anything from his future mother-in-law. Thus, he replied casually, "No. We just ate together with both her parents. More so, the engagement was just a verbal agreement, so it was basically nothing."
