Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 541

With 'surprise' written all over his face, he looked at Carla as he carried her in his arms. He wasn't expecting to hear something like that at all, so he asked, "Did I use to cook for you before?"

Now, Terence was wondering just how much he had pampered her in the past. Never in his wildest dreams had he thought that he would ever cook for a woman!

Unable to hold back her laughter, Carla replied, "Yes! You used to cook three meals a day for us when we were still living together in BH City. When we moved to JA City, you would still prepare some meals from time to time."

When they got to the room, Carla went down from his arms and opened the door to check on Sally. However, Sally was nowhere to be found when she walked in, so she turned around to ask Terence, "Where is Sally?"

Terence simply answered, "Don't worry. She's just sleeping in the next room."

Hearing his response, Carla anxiously blurted out, "What? No! She can't sleep by herself! During these past three years, she has barely even left my side at all. I think I'd better bring her here so she can sleep right next to me!" Carla looked so worried as she told him that.

Truth be told, she herself had actually been so used to sleeping with Sally in her arms in the past three years. For that reason, the thought of sleeping without Sally made her feel so strange.

"Sally is already three years old now. I think she's big enough to sleep on her own. Besides, Sophie is gonna be looking after her at night. So, there's no need for you to worry about her,"

Terence said in total disagreement with Carla's opinion. The way he saw it, Carla only had to sleep together with Sally because there were only two of them back then.

But now, things were a bit different than before. So, Terence thought that it would be a bit too crowded if the three of them all slept together in the same bed. But most importantly, he always felt a bit uncomfortable having another person lying between him and Carla.

In spite of what he said, Carla still couldn't help but worry a little, so she quickly changed into her pajamas and went to the next room to check up on her.

When she saw Sally lying on the bed by herself and sleeping soundly, she was able to feel a sense of relief.

All throughout these past three years, Sally had been by her side every night. So, truth be told, she was actually having qualms about not sleeping together with her daughter.

When Carla went back to their own bedroom, she found out that Terence wasn't there.

So, she just waited there until he returned. And after a few minutes, Terence walked in with a bowl of noodles in his hand.

"It's been a while since I last cooked something, so I'm not sure whether it will taste good or not. Go ahead and try it! Eat it while it's still hot."

Putting down her mobile phone on the bedside table, Carla looked at the bowl of noodles he was handing over to her. She was left utterly dumbfounded for a moment there. She wasn't really expecting for Terence to actually go and cook something for her.

"My dear husband... Thank you."

According to the way he was now, Carla assumed that he wouldn't have bothered preparing it himself.

When they went back from BH City last time, she knew well that Terence had his hands full with running the business. Because of that, she rarely ever asked anything of him.

"Go ahead! Eat it!" Terence urged as he handed her a pair of chopsticks. In truth, he felt somewhat uncomfortable that the smell of the noodles filled the air in the room.

But the second he heard Carla call him "husband", he instantly felt warm, thinking that all of his efforts were totally worth it.

He started to think that this woman wasn't as overbearing as he was making her out to be. She probably had her reasons for acting the way she did, completely aware of what she was doing as she dealt with things around her.

He more or less guessed that maybe he really irritated her before, and that was why she was being mean to him at that time.

Grabbing the chopsticks, Carla went ahead and slurped the noodles. Although it was a bit on the salty side, she was so overjoyed. She instantly decided that she should finish it all up and just drink enough water later before going to sleep.

To be fair, he hadn't really been into the kitchen in the past four years, so she still considered what he prepared for her a well-done job.

By the time she was done eating, Terence had also finished taking a bath to freshen up.

"How was it? Was it any good?" Terence asked.

"Yes, of course! Aunt Laura was the one who taught you how to cook after all, so I'm sure it couldn't taste bad!" Carla replied, beaming him a bright smile.

She then got up and went to the bathroom to get washed up. After a while, she was also ready to go to sleep.

As soon as she stepped out of the bathroom, Terence couldn't wait to hold her in his arms, giving her a devilish grin. Seeing this, all Carla could do was smile helplessly, thinking, 'He's still the same Terence from back then, alright! Nothing has changed at all when it comes to fooling around!

This was probably what he had in mind when he took Sally to the next room!'

Meanwhile, Lucy was holding her baby as she sat in the hotel's bed. Stuck in that small room, she truly felt so alone.
