Chapter 106 He And Another Woman
Although it was Sean and Carla's second visit to JA City, they were still astonished by the splendid and
grand scenery here.
People on the bus effortlessly diverted their topic of discussion to the great scenery in JA City.
The bus arrived by the apartments soon enough.
The school had arranged nice apartments for each family. And every apartment contained two
bedrooms so that the parents and the children could have some good rest. In addition to it, a kitchen
and a bathroom were also part of each apartment. It was said that the students were going to be picked
up by the school bus every day.
Every parent was satisfied with the arrangements. The services were so considerate. It must be a great
school.
It was their first night after arriving here. The children went to bed early while almost all of the parents
ended up staying up late.
They needed time to get used to a strange place as this.
Sean was pretty clever. He knew that Carla would teach him a lesson once they arrived. Hence, he
began pretending to be asleep long before they arrived.
As soon as they got inside their apartment, Sean rushed to his bed regardless of however loudly Carla
was calling him.
He pretended to be asleep so that Carla could do nothing to him though she had prepared to teach him
a good lesson after having arrived.
Carla felt complicated and tensed after she returned to JA City, yet again.
After realizing that she could hardly fall asleep now, she cleaned every corner of the bathroom, as well
as the kitchen so that she could use them up-front tomorrow.
Everything was available here. The TV, fridge, air conditioner and even the daily necessities in the
kitchen. There were also some commodities that were left by the last family who lived here. Therefore,
she didn't really need to buy anything else for now.
After cleaning everything up, Carla took note of the time. It was already past one in the morning.
Exhausted, she threw herself onto the bed with her thoughts wandering back to the wilderness.
She kept recalling what happened on the bus today and what Terence had said on the phone.
She couldn't resist overthinking about it despite her genuine efforts to divert her own attention.
Terence and the daughter of the Hua family had gone abroad for a tour?
As a couple who just got engaged and went abroad to have a vacation together, they must be enjoying
their sweet love now, wasn't it?
How many men in the world can resist that temptation? Even though he had been so considerate to her
before she cut him off clearly, would he refuse another woman's tenderness now?
Besides, Carla realized that she wasn't so affectionate or tender to him. And she didn't know how to
please a man.
The more she reflected, the worse she thought of herself.
She remembered that Terence once said that he couldn't bear it for too long. Now, there was a
gorgeous woman by his side. Would he refuse such a beautiful woman and not even touch her?
Thinking of that, Carla seriously doubted it. She sat up all of a sudden and rubbed her hair with force to
restrain her thoughts wandering again.
He was already engaged. Quite literally and possibly, he was going to marry his fiancee. That was to
say, no matter who he slept with, it was none of her business. Carla tried to conceive the reality despite
it being cruel and raucous.
She lied down on the bed again abruptly as if all of her strength had faded away in a second.
Though she knew that it would hurt her so much when she left Terence, she hadn't expected the pain
to be this unbearable.
Regardless of all the precautions she had taken in order to avoid falling in love with Terence, he may
just have turned out to be irresistible.
A huge chunk of time passed while Carla was lying on the bed and thinking about Terence.
She didn't even notice when she had fallen asleep. All she knew was that she couldn't sleep well that
night.
She did have an elaborate wet dream last night that only made her condition worse.
Ironically, she was not the heroine. It was Terence and another woman whose face couldn't be seen
clearly. They were having sex on the bed, the balcony and even the beach.
As far as she was concerned, she could only stand there outside some strange glass wall to watch
what was going on. She tried her best to call Terence but she failed.
No matter how loudly she called, he couldn't hear her. And his eyes were fixated on the woman under
his body. It seemed as if he wanted to spend all his energy and passion on that woman.
Having witnessed Terence having sex with another woman with love in his eyes, Carla felt heartbroken.
It wrenched her heart. It was nothing short of a stab through her heart.
She was not his lover any more. She couldn't afford to be.
Although it was just a dream, Carla felt genuinely heartbroken. The feeling was so clear that she even
doubted herself for a second.
She fully understood that it was for her own good that she refused him since she believed that she
would never be a perfect match for someone like him.
So she pushed him away again and again.
However, as the sun settled down to rest for a night, she couldn't ignore her real thought any longer.
Her pain was real and palpable when she was in her dream which seemed to be as authentic as reality.
Hence, by the time she woke up the next day, her eyes were filled with tears.
The dream was so real that she felt extremely sad even after having figured out it was just a dream.
When she reckoned that she had to ask Sean to wake up for school, she found to her surprise that he
had left already.
A note was lying calmly on the table.
It said, "Carla, the school bus is here. I'm going to school. They are offering breakfasts for each student
on the school bus. So, don't worry about me.
Your loving brother, Sean."
Carla slightly rubbed her eye lids as she had gained a faint headache due to the dream. Then she took
a look at the time. It was already half past eight.
After resting for a night, the parents had all regained some energy and had some leisure time since the
children had all gone to school.
If they didn't take advantage of this time to have a tour here, it would be a pity since they seldom came
to JA City.
So the parents started to discuss about having a tour around. Most of them were women so the chat
was pretty active. They talked about what they could do, such as going shopping, doing their hair,
having a pleasant afternoon tea and also visiting the famous hotspots in JA City.
"Carla, I have made an appointment with some parents to go out and have some fun. You should come NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
along and join us."
After Carla cleaned herself up and had some breakfast, Mrs. Jiang paid a visit to her as she added,
"Don't take what happened yesterday personally. I was only being curious about the truth since it was a
widespread story in the school. Are you angry with me?"
Noticing the absence of a prompt reply from Carla, Mrs. Jiang assumed that Carla was probably still
mad at her for what she had done on the bus.
However, Carla put on a smile soon and answered, "I've already forgotten about what happened
yesterday. I'm still pretty exhausted and sleepy. You go ahead and have fun. I need some rest."
Carla really didn't like this woman. In fact, she loathed her.
"Come on! They are all waiting downstairs right now for you. I rent a car exclusively for us. Five
persons including you.
You've got plenty of time to take rest tomorrow. Why don't you join us today and have some fun?"
Mrs. Jiang was so smart that she didn't want to offend Carla at all since she had learnt that Carla knew
Terence. No matter how distant they were, it was better for her to keep a good relationship with Carla.
But what she had done on the bus yesterday was undoubtedly not a good start for their relationship.
Hence, she wanted to make up for it today. That was why she kept asking Carla to join them.
Realizing Mrs. Jiang wasn't going to give up, Carla finally agreed.
She went downstairs after she got changed.
Just as she had expected, the car that Mrs. Jiang had rented was waiting there.
After Carla got into the car, Mrs. Jiang fired the ignition of the car. Their destination was a street named
AX Street, which was the hottest street in JA City.
"I have searched on the Internet earlier. This restaurant is very famous. It has got both Chinese food
and western food. And their chefs are all well renowned. I have already booked a table. Let's have
some fun today!"
Mrs. Jiang said with a smile as she picked up her phone and checked the order number.
It was almost noon. Time for lunch.
Carla was a little upset and alienated among these middle-aged women since she was still young.
Actually these women looked pretty fashionable and were all good at talking. One could barely tell they
already had children. The enthusiastic women took Carla around and just wouldn't shut up no matter
what.
"This way. Let's go find out if it is as tasty as Mrs. Jiang claims. After all, we can split the bill. It won't
cost too much since we have got many people for the bill. What do you think?"
a parent asked with a tender smile, looking at the rest of them.
"Well, I chose this restaurant. So it's my treat today. Enjoy the lunch. We can split the bill next time,
alright?"
Mrs. Jiang advised. She had offended Carla so badly on the bus yesterday. It was a good chance for
her to make it up discreetly.
"Sure. After all, Mrs. Jiang is rich and the bill amount will not be a matter of worry for her, right?" a
parent teased with a bigger smile and patted Mrs. Jiang on her shoulder.
Mrs. Jiang lifted the corners of her lips as well in a beam and followed them into the elevator. The
restaurant was located at the top of the building.
