Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 47

The water in the swimming pool was pleasantly warm after a long day of sunshine. Even though it was dark now, Carla didn't feel cold at all.

'Ahh— This feels so wonderful.'

She held onto the edge with her back against the wall and paddled her feet leisurely in the water. Missing out on the opportunity to go diving earlier today, she made up for it with a relaxing swim alone, instead.

While Carla was discreetly enjoying some time alone in the pool, a room on the third floor of the villa was dimly lit.

But, because it was a full moon that cast a frosty light all about, the dimly lit room wasn't easily visible.

"Mr. Terence. You're not in bed yet!" Rainer said surprised.

He was on duty tonight. When he patrolled the house, he noticed the door to Terence's room was half open and went to check it vigilantly.

On entering his room, he discovered Terence perched on the window sill, observing something through a telescope.

"Mr. Terence, what are you watching? Is there a UFO outside?" he asked with some humor behind the question. There was no response from Terence. He ignored Rainer and continued looking through the telescope. Rainer's curiosity was further piqued so he leaned over the sill to see for himself.

However, before he got a chance to see anything, Terence pushed him back and said in a low commanding voice, "Just go! It's none of your business! Get back to work!"

He then went back to watch something through his telescope with great interest.

Rainer scratched his head feeling puzzled. He didn't understand why Terence was being so secretive, yet he had no choice but to obey. As he walked outside, he mumbled to himself, "What's outside? I have a telescope in my room as well—"

Terence straightened up upon hearing what Rainer had said. He yelled back at him, "Come back!"

"What do you need, Mr. Terence?"

Rainer turned around and bowed respectfully.

However, Terence had daggers in his eyes and commanded him in a sullen voice, "Rainer, I want you to confiscate all the telescopes in the villa. Don't leave one piece, including yours!"

"What?" Rainer was astonished at his order.

"Do it! Now!" Terence commanded coldly.

"Yes, sir!"

Rainer was at a complete loss as to why Terence would order such a thing. Even so, he didn't dare question his boss. He immediately turned around to carry out the order.

Terence poured himself a glass of wine and took up the telescope again. He smiled as he watched Carla in the swimming pool. She seemed to be thoroughly enjoying herself. It gave him great pleasure to watch the beautiful scene. He casually reached for the wine and took a sip.

She looked charming, her figure more curvaceous now than before.

While Terence was relishing the scene, someone came into his sight of view. He frowned immediately and grabbed his cellphone briskly walking out.

"Nathan, why are you at the swimming pool? Get back, now!" Terence commanded on the phone.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Terence, but I can hear someone in the swimming pool. It's highly unusual. Who could be there at such a late hour? For your safety, should I check it out?"

Nathan replied sincerely. He was a loyal staff member. Even though it was his brother, Rainer, who was on duty tonight, Nathan would also give him a hand if he discovered anything unusual.

"Do you dare to disobey me?" Terence got on the elevator and threatened coldly, "Nathan, I command you, stay where you are! Otherwise, if you see anything, I swear, I will blind you!"

Nathan didn't dare move when he heard Terence's angry threat.

He was very close to the swimming pool. The only thing that separated his view from seeing Carla in the pool was a bamboo grove.

Soon enough Terence rushed over. He waved his hands to drive Nathan away.

Nathan nodded and left immediately

after seeing Terence's anxious face. He was sure of his suspicion.

Nathan heard the faint voice of a woman just before he left and he knew that no other woman could attract Terence's attention like Carla could.
