Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 579

At that moment, it was quite apparent from the look on William's face how surprised he was when he saw the little boy who was holding Violet's hand.

The original plan was that Carla would drive Violet and Cody home before she headed back to the Seaview Villa with Sally.

But upon seeing that man waiting for them outside, it seemed that there wouldn't be a need to do that.

When she noticed William standing outside, Violet reflexively got in front of Cody as though she was trying to protect him from something.

Feeling a bit curious, Cody took a peek at the man who was standing in front of the car. For some reason, he felt somewhat familiar with him. That being said, he opted not to approach him.

"Let me just drive the two of you home. It's already a bit late, so you shouldn't be bothering Carla,"

William said as he walked toward them.

As he spoke, his eyes were completely glued to the boy hiding behind Violet.

It took the best of him to hold back his smile and it was plain to see that this boy was his son because he resembled him so much.

"So... Violet, what do you say? Why don't you just head back in William's car?"

Carla suggested, albeit reluctantly. This was the first time William had ever met his son, so they would probably need to get some family time. It would be better for her to leave the three of them to themselves.

At the end of the day, blood is thicker than water.

"Come on, Violet! Let's go."

Before Violet could give any response, William grabbed a hold of her hand and led her into his car.

After a futile struggle, Violet got into the car even though she really would've preferred not to.

"Sir, I can do it myself. You don't have to help me."

Turning down William's offer, Cody climbed up to the backseat all by himself.

Hearing the word "sir" made William turn frigid for a second, filling his chest with pain and bitterness.

After shutting the door, he got in the driver's seat.

Taking a look at the woman sitting right beside him and the boy at the backseat of his car, William had conflicting emotions. Being treated like a stranger by his son made him feel so empty deep inside. But at the same time, he also felt glad that he was able to make a bit of progress in his relationship with Violet and Cody. After all these years of waiting for a chance to reconnect with her, he could finally feel a sense of relief.

Outside the An Manor, even Carla felt at ease as she watched the three of them drive away in William's car.

She sincerely hoped that Violet and William could still settle their differences somehow and get a bit closer to each other this time around.

That was the way relationships worked sometimes.

It doesn't take too much to hurt someone, but in contrast, it would most definitely take a lot for their wounds to heal.

Once a person had gotten hurt, the scar would forever be there every single time they look at it.

One might be able to forget how painful it was back then, but that person could never ignore the scars that had been felt behind.

Now that Violet and Cody had gone, Carla was about to head back as well to take Sally into the Seaview Villa.

However, before they could step into the car, a familiar SUV pulled over right in front of them.

A smile crept onto her face the second Carla recognized who it was. Why did he come back as well? She thought that he was going to camp out with the others for tonight.

"Daddy!"

Sally cried out, all smiles, and bounced up and down the moment she realized that it was Terence who was sitting inside the car.

Terence stepped out of the car and walked toward them. Then, he suddenly grabbed Sally with one hand as well as Carla's hand with the other.

"Why did you come back as well? You could've stayed with your friends. I thought you were gonna go camping with Theo and the others."

Carla asked as soon as they all got into the car.

"Well, I was thinking about it, and I came to realize that I will probably just get so bored if I sleep inside a tent by myself without you next to me. So, I thought, why don't I just head back and stay with my wife and my daughter?" Terence gave her a smile as he tightened his grip on her hand.

"But what about Sean? Did he also go back home?"

"Yes, I had someone drive him home, so you don't have to worry about him. He should have already arrived there by now."

As they continued their conversation, the three of them drove back to the Seaview Villa.

While Terence and Carla were still on their way home, Violet and Cody had arrived at the hotel they were staying in, riding in William's car.

However, the moment he exited the car and saw the hotel, William couldn't help but frown. The hotel was a rather subpar hotel in JA City's standards. It was run-down and in quite a miserable state, most likely in a poor sanitary condition as well.
