Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 578

"No, Carla, you're just overthinking things!" Sean said, with an amused look on his face, still trying to catch his breath.

Since Sean saw it quite differently, Carla didn't bother bringing up the topic any longer. She turned around to check the hunting ground from where they were standing.

In one part of the field, Violet was trying to shoot down a pheasant. But because she never really had any experience with handling a gun, she was having such a hard time. Some of the shots she took only startled the pheasants and nearby hares, causing them to scamper around.

In a fit of anger, she threw the gun on the ground, rolled up her sleeves, and darted toward the field herself, intending to catch the pheasants using her bare hands.

As soon as the people there saw her enter the field, everyone had no choice but to stop shooting.

Everyone was left so dumbfounded that they simply chose to watch as Violet ran around the hunting grounds, desperately trying to catch a pheasant.

Seeing her friend doing her best all by herself in there without anyone willing to lend a helping hand, Carla pulled up her sleeves as well and jumped in the hunting ground to help Violet catch something.

Because of that, everyone around them continued watching these two women and their peculiar actions—one was trying to block the pheasants' escape route while the other was responsible for catching them.

Other onlookers who might not be familiar with Carla and Violet might think that these two had gotten a few loose screws.

However, for those who knew them quite well like Terence, Rainer, and Nathan, they could tell why Carla would do such a thing. After all, Carla already had a bit of experience with shooting, so there shouldn't be a need for her to bother chasing after pheasants barehanded.

In spite of that, she was still more than willing to help Violet catch the pheasants without a care in the world how others might view her actions.

The fact of the matter was that she was there to accompany her friend and help her blow off some steam.

"Ah, I caught one! I caught one!'

After a while, running all over the field, Violet managed to capture a black and red pheasant! As though she were on top of the world, she raised her hand and waved away the pheasants' feathers over her head, showing it off to the people outside the fence.

Terence forced a cough to give the others a signal. Then, he was the first to clap his hands.

Of course, William clapped his hands as well, actually feeling quite amazed that Violet was able to pull it off.

When they saw the two men clapping their hands, the people outside the fence proceeded to give the two women who had been chasing after pheasants a big round of applause in spite of how weird they might have looked.

In JA City, there were numerous wealthy ladies who mindlessly threw money down the drain, not to mention the material girls who perceived money as the most important thing in the world. Those women seemed proper, beautiful, and very liberal.

That being said, only a handful of women could act as easy-going and carefree as these two—Carla and Violet.

But it should go without saying that a single pheasant wouldn't be able to fill everyone's stomachs.

Apart from that, based on the rules of this place, if one wanted to eat something for free, they had to be the one to hunt for their food themselves.

Of course, they also had the option of paying for these animals, but where was the fun in that?

So, when these two women had tired themselves out, the other men began putting their shooting skills on display, hunting down more hares and pheasants for dinner.

Soon, it was sundown.

A group of people gathered around two bonfires and had a picnic.

And they had to work for their meals themselves, which made the food taste much more delicious.

When they had enough drinks and food to eat, they all decided to camp out and stay there for the night.

But Violet was still feeling quite worried about her son, so she told Carla that she would like to head back first.

It was just about eight in the evening. When she thought about it, it would be nine o'clock by the time she got back if she left right away, so it wouldn't be too late.

"Let me accompany you. Actually, there's something I have to take care of in the company tomorrow morning. That means I also won't be staying for the night," William told Violet.

"No, I don't need you to accompany me. I can find a way back myself," Violet answered, turning down William's offer.

Seeing that Violet resolutely refused William, Carla glanced over at Terence and told him, "Violet, it's already getting late. I think it would be better if you just let Mr. William drove you home."

"Carla!" Violet turned her head and glared at Carla, trying to tell her not to take William's side on this.

"Well, I also want to go back. I haven't seen Sally since we left, so I kinda miss her too!" Carla remarked. Then, she went ahead and told Terence, "My dear husband! I'm gonna ask Rainer to take me and Violet home, okay? We'll be heading home first. You guys just have a good time here."

But before Terence could even say anything back, Carla had already left with Violet.

So, Rainer went with them and drove them home.

When Carla and Violet went out of the camp, they realized that William was actually still following them.

And even up until the two had reached the An Manor, William's car was still following them close behind.

After a while, Carla and Violet walked into the East Yard.

Carla was under the assumption that the two children were already in bed. It was almost nine o'clock after all.

Be that as it might, when she arrived at the house with Violet, Carla was left at such a loss with the scene that she stumbled upon.
