Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 595

The hubbub that filled the hall died down almost instantly the moment Terence arrived.

All eyes from across the room were watching him as he walked in.

Some people quickly sprung up from their seats to offer them to him.

"You're here, Mr. Terence. Feel free to take my seat if you want," a man ingratiated himself. "You can have mine if you would like to, Mr. Terence."

"Perhaps you'd like to take my seat?" another man politely said, "I've actually got a great seat and I've been winning today!" he went on and added.

"What are you trying to imply? Are you saying that Mr. Terence is someone who's afraid to lose?" another man was so quick to point a finger.

"No! I never said anything like that. I only meant well," the former said, trying to make it clear.

As these people were having arguments, Terence scanned the hall awhile, obviously looking for someone, until his eyes became fixated in a corner where a woman was sitting.

Now that he finally found her, his eyebrows had gotten knitted. At that moment, she was sporting a pair of unfashionable glasses with a black frame, which concealed her beauty and made her appear like such a plain woman.

Then, he strode toward her right away.

Shifting her glasses upward out of frustration, Carla threw her cards onto the table.

However, just as she was about to hand over her seat to Terence, the manager of the casino who had a black suit on suddenly appeared and was smiling from ear to ear.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Terence. I'm glad you could come. We're happy to have you here. We have a suite reserved upstairs just for you. If you would please follow me to your room?" the manager politely said after giving Terence a warm welcome.

Without saying a word, Terence simply nodded his head in response. Then, as a smile crept onto his face, he reached out his hand toward his wife.

With her eyes glued to his captivating smile, it took a second before she gave her hand to him.

Then, with a wave of her hand, she gestured toward Violet to follow them.

"Kaylee, will you be coming as well?"

From out of the blue, Terence politely asked the woman in a mandarin gown.

At this point, the woman was visibly looking at Carla from head to toe as she got up from her seat. "How silly of me! I didn't even realize this is your wife, Terence," she remarked, wearing quite a warm smile on her face.

"I see you've already met. Carla, this is Kaylee. Father's friend,"

Terence said, formally introducing the woman to Carla.

Carla could more or less guess right away that this woman was probably Edmund's lover.

Terence' late mother had already been gone for a number of years. So, it shouldn't be surprising for Edmund to be seeing another woman.

That being said, Carla wasn't really expecting to come across her in a rather inappropriate place.

After that, Terence headed toward the stairs while holding Carla's hand.

Violet was about to follow behind them as well. However, she was stopped in her tracks by something all of a sudden. When she turned to check who it was, she saw that it was William who had his arms wrapped around her waist.

"Violet!" he called her name, sounding so delighted.

"What are you doing here?" Violet asked, feeling somewhat surprised.

"I actually came here with Terence. But I bumped into a friend of mine and chatted with him for a while, so I got held up a bit," William answered.

"Where's my son?" he immediately asked.

"I left him to play with Sally in Carla's house. I'll be picking him up first thing tomorrow morning," Violet replied. "What? Do you have any objections?" she hurled at him upon noticing the look of disappointment on William's face. "You don't get to say anything. He's my son, so I have the right to decide," Violet protested.

As soon as she was done talking, she walked away without even giving him a chance to respond whatsoever.

As far as Violet was concerned, there was nothing wrong with Cody staying at the Seaview Villa. After all, there were lots of servants who could look after him while she was away. In any case, the kid had already gotten used to it as well.

While they were having that conversation, Carla and Terence had already reached the top floor.

As soon as she stepped into the deluxe suite, it felt as though she was in a scene out of the Hong Kong movies which she used to watch when she was younger.

Meanwhile, Terence and his friends proceeded to take their seats. Kaylee was with them as well. It was plain to see that she was already used to attending such social activities.

Soon enough, Violet came up to the room, with William walking closely behind her.

"Perhaps it would be better to just continue playing the game we were playing downstairs. I think it would be much easier now that there are quite a few of us here,"

Kaylee suggested after everyone had settled down.
