Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 596

"Who took care of it last time?"

"It was Eunice, She handled it when you were away."

Carla shot him a glance. "Why can't she keep handling it then?"

"You're back here now. You should be the one taking care of it. All the An family members and relatives will be at the ancestor-worship ceremony. You need to take the leading role to guide all the females in the family to prostrate before our ancestors.

"That position has been vacant ever since my mother passed away,"

Terence patiently explained.

Carla yawned as she listened. "Is Eunice okay with it?"

Since this was a sacred tradition of the An family tradition, the lead role would naturally be taken by the hostess.

Carla figured that Eunice had been very much enjoying the glory of the moment.

As the An family was big, countless people would be attending the ceremony. It would be a wondrous sight to behold.

"Although she wasn't happy with it, she can't do anything about this decision,"

Terence said with a frown on his face. He remembered that Nathan had informed him about Lucy and Eunice meeting up in secret.

He didn't have to think too hard to figure out what was on their minds.

It was clearly obvious to him what Eunice wanted to do.

Eunice wanted to help Lucy in order to take Carla down and become the hostess.

Carla leaned her head silently on his shoulder, her eyes closing as she felt his warmth beside her. "I understand, don't worry about it. I won't let anyone else take away what's mine."

Shortly after speaking out what she needed to say, silence filled the room and repetitive sounds of breathing could be heard.

"Carla?" Terence gently called her name only to find out she had fallen asleep.

At the beginning, he wanted to warn her about Eunice.

This was because Eunice seemed to be aggravated. After all, in the past, she had always seemed to have a certain mocking temperament against Carla. Ever since she gave birth to a son, she seemed to have forgotten her place in the family.

With these thoughts, the night dwindled by and morning came.

Soon after, Carla waited for Violet to take Cody home. Carla then took Sally to the An family manor.

As they arrived at the East Yard, Carla noticed that someone came earlier than her.

"Just remember what I just said, you can prepare for the ceremony like we had last year. I think the courtesy done before walking inside the door is unnecessary. You can just remove them. I'll talk to the elders in the family about it later,"

Eunice said as she was looking at the list of the detailed processes of the ceremony in her hand.

"Mrs. Eunice, I can't make the decision for this. Don't you think it's better for us to wait for Mrs. Carla to arrive before deciding upon anything?"

Eunice had been talking to the housekeeper about the ceremony. As the housekeeper had received an order from Nicholas that Carla would be responsible for the ceremony, he could not make any changes despite Eunice harping him to do it.

He could only make alterations under Carla's permission. If he took anyone's thoughts regarding the ceremony, then it would be an absolute mess.

After speaking, he looked up and rejoiced as he saw Carla walking in.

"Mrs. Carla, You're finally here!" He said while quickly striding towards her.

"I hope you'll forgive me for being late,"

Carla responded with a smile. She gently stroked Sally's head and whispered, "Sally, go find Grandpa and play with him. Mommy will find you when we have to leave."

Sally nodded her head to ensure her mother that she understood and went upstairs to find her Grandpa.

Carla watched Sally happily skip as she left. She turned to look at Eunice.

"Carla, you're here!"

Eunice calmly said. She walked up and continued, "Since I hosted the last ceremony, I may have some experience which could be of some help to you."
