Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 158 Silent Treatment (Part Two)

After a very nerve-racking day, Carla eventually got home an hour later.

She sat on her bed and thought to herself, 'Maybe it would be best if I left. We need to give each other

some space to cool down and clear our heads.'

But she couldn't put herself in danger. She just had a narrow escape a few says ago. She wouldn't risk

her own life by running away from home.

Carla needed to protect herself. She only had one life.

Carla realized that she must have made Terence really angry, because she hadn't received a single call

from him since they went out and that was unlike him. He could never go a day without talking to her.

Carla waited up late for him to return. Not being able to keep her eyes open anymore, she fell asleep.

For the first time in her life, she had no idea where Terence was.

When they usually had an argument and she was wrong, Terence used to forgive her immediately and

just brush it off his shoulder like it was nothing. It was different this time, and he wasn't going to forget

this.

Carla finally came to realize one thing about Terence. Either he tolerated all her faults and never took it

seriously, or he would be really mad and really hard to soothe when she crossed the line.

She had always been hardheaded and stubborn. Carla wasn't going to apologize to Terence as she

believed she wasn't in the wrong this time.

Their love life ended faster than it started. It was heartbreaking to know what they could have had; they

shared something special together that not many couples could achieve.

Carla felt that all the love, affection and memorable moments were all just a waste of time. Their

relationship was bound to end horribly. He had to marry Bonnie someday and she had to leave him.

They had to end this relationship. The sooner the better. This could have been a blessing in disguise. It

would save a lot of unnecessary heartbreak in the future when Terence got married.

Carla walked downstairs, she looked around to see if Terence was home but there was no sight of him.

She sat down at the table for breakfast and asked Sophie, "Did Mr. Terence come back last night?"

Sophie shook her head and said, "No, I'm sorry, Miss Carla." Seeing the worries in her eyes, Sophie

attempted to reassure her, "But Rainer said Mr. Terence is very busy these days. Please don't overthink

it, Miss Carla. Before you arrived here, Mr. Terence often didn't come home."

Carla glanced up at Sophie and gave her a halfheartedly smile, "I see."

After breakfast, Carla leafed through the calendar. The spring semester would begin in ten days. She

would have no choice but to go back to BH City.

It became darker as the sun started to fade behind the mountains. Carla took a bath and returned to

her room. Towel drying her hair, she smiled as a thought popped into her mind, 'My period is over. He

will definitely come back tonight.'

He had been counting the days during her period. His need and desire for her were uncontrollable. Not

that he would be allowed in her bed, he would at least make an attempt.

However, Carla began to doubt herself as time went by. It was already midnight and Terence still hadn't Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

come back home.

She pulled back the quilts and walked towards the French windows. The gate was shut and apparently,

no vehicles were allowed to drive in.

Carla realized that she might have taken things too far and underestimated him.

It had never occurred to her that he'd blow up so violently.

She never imagined Terence getting angry and acting this way. He chose to rather stay away than to

talk it out with Carla.

She got tired of waiting for Terence and her patience began to run thin. She had been sharing a room

with Terence for the last couple of nights but decided to go to her own tonight.

She went to her closet and packed all her things neatly into her suitcase.

Carla tossed and turned all night, as she couldn't help but think about Terence. Realizing she wasn't

going to be able to sleep, she rose with the lark and got dressed. Without informing anyone, Carla

quietly pulled her suitcase and left the villa.

After walking a few steps, she found it especially hard to find a taxi there. It was one of the wealthiest

parts of the city, and a taxi car was the last things you would see there.

She was in a dilemma. Carla refused to return to the villa and it was impossible to make it to the train

station on foot.

All of a sudden, she spotted a taxi driving her way. To her surprise, the yellow taxi pulled up beside her.

The back seat seemed to be occupied but it didn't matter. Once the taxi dropped these people off then

she would be able to take it.

The taxi's doors opened and Carla couldn't believe who she was seeing.

The one woman was getting out and spotted Carla, "Oh my! Carla! Hasen! Look! It's Carla."

"Oh, yes indeed!"

Carla forced a smile as a two women and a man got out of the car, "Uncle? Aunt? Why are you here?"

"Carla, it's really you! Thank goodness I asked the driver to stop." Hasen's wife was more than happy

to see her. She trotted to Carla and grabbed her hands.

"Carla, you have no idea how hard it was to find this place. We spent almost two hours trying to sweet

talk the security guards to let us in. Don't tell your uncle but I secretly slipped them one of the gifts, and

that is why they let us in. Hasen thought it was his charm. You best not tell him dear. If he knew that I

did that it will give him a complex about himself."

Hasen's eyes twinkled with delight as he spoke to Carla. "We know Mr. Terence is a very busy man.

We didn't want to bother you, Carla, but we don't have any other option. That is why we came here."

What do you say? Carla, could you please introduce us to Mr. Terence?"

Hasen's wife added to the conversation, "Yes, please, Carla. We have come all the way to see him. We

also brought gifts with us! Introduce us to him, will you?"

Hasen's wife demanded, with an eager, ingratiating smile on her face.
