Chapter 159 Carla's Uncle Came Looking For Her (Part One)
Carla pulled her luggage tightly while her lips couldn't help but twitch. For her, right now was obviously
not the right time for her uncle and aunt to visit her
because she and Terence were not in a good place. He hadn't been home for two days. How could she
call him right now?
"Carla, you're my cousin. Just do me this favor, please?" Lynn begged as she walked over to Carla and
held her hand. She looked straight into Carla's eyes and continued, "Carla, I'm dying for a chance to
study at JA University. If it's impossible for me to study there, then the Medical University of JA will be
fine as well."
Lynn's major was medicine. The medical department of JA University was well known to be one of the
most prestigious schools in the country. However, if she tried and still failed to enter the university, she
would be happy to go to the Medical University of JA instead. After all, it was still a decent place to take
up medicine.
As a nineteen-year-old girl, Lynn had just finished high school. She was wearing a thick pair of glasses,
but that did not hide her exquisite features. Both Hasen and his wife thought their daughter was very
beautiful. So, they were trying their best in helping Lynn to stay at JA City. They also hoped that in the
future, their daughter could snatch a rich husband there.
In their eyes, Lynn was far more proper and therefore, a better choice for the rich men than Carla. To
them, Carla was just a mediocre girl and on top of that, she had a younger brother to take care of. They
thought, 'Since Carla has been associated with the An family, then it wouldn't be difficult for Lynn to find
a rich husband.'
Seeing their expectant faces, Carla glanced at her luggage and smiled bitterly.
"Carla, where are you going?" Hasen's wife quickly asked when she noticed the luggage behind Carla.
Then, she and her husband looked at each other for a short while.
She thought, 'Did we come too late?
Has Carla been driven out of the An's mansion by Terence?'
"Carla, you know we had been staying at JA City for several days and it had cost us a lot of money.
Moreover, it wasn't an easy task for us to find you here. Anyway, since we're here now, can you just do
this for us? After all, I'm your aunt and Lynn is your cousin,"
Hasen's wife begged loudly as she held Carla's arms tightly.
As the same way her daughter did earlier, she looked straight into Carla's eyes and said, "If you
successfully help Lynn in entering JA University, I promise we will pay you back. Would you be so kind
as to help your cousin just this one time?"
Carla removed her arm from her aunt's grasps. She was aware that her aunt was already suspecting
that she was kicked out of the mansion by Terence. So she decided to exploit that.
She replied miserably, "Auntie, I really want to help you. But just as you have seen, I've already moved
out of Terence's villa. How could I go back without his permission?"
Upon hearing Carla's words, Hasen's wife knew that her speculation was right. She became really
worried but she managed to say, "Don't refuse us, Carla. I think you can still do something. Even if
you're done with Terence, you were together as lovers, right? I'm sure that must meant something.
Please help us this time. How about just asking him out to lunch? So that we can talk with him. Don't
you think that would be a great idea?"
After a while, Carla closed her eyes and stated with a sneer, "Auntie, there is no way that I can go back
to Terence's villa right now. If you still insist, we can arrange lunch anywhere but at his villa. I'll call him
right now. But I'm not sure whether he will come or not."
After Carla's stern statement, Hasen's wife nodded her head and cried out, "Okay! No problem. Hasen,
Lynn, get into the car. Carla, let's sit in the back."
They placed Carla's luggage in the trunk and asked her to sit at the back of the car between Lynn and
her mother. As for Hasen, he was sitting on the driver's passenger seat.
As their niece, Carla had no choice but to help them meet Terence. Although if she were being
completely honest, she was really unwilling to call him right now.
Hasen's wife specifically chose a fancy restaurant and ordered some of the best and most expensive
dishes. She saw the chance to meet Terence as a good investment.
"Carla, how about giving Mr. Terence a call right now?" Hasen's wife nagged Carla even though it was
a little early for lunch.
Carla was starting to realize that her aunt's attitude was highly distasteful. This made her remember the
day when she was forced to call Terence by the parents of one of Sean's classmates on their way to JA
City. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Back then, after she got Terence on the phone, Sean took over and talked with the man. But at this
moment, she had no choice but to talk to him herself.
Carla sighed, took out her cell phone and dialed a phone number.
"Hi, Rainer, is Terence there?" Carla hesitantly asked when the call went through. It was Rainer that
she called because she was sure that he must be with Terence. Being Terence's bodyguard along with
his brother Nathan, it was only natural that he was with Terence at all times.
"Oh, it's Miss Carla!"
Knowing that it was Carla, Rainer especially cried out in a loud voice. Discreetly, he watched Terence
who was enjoying his coffee in front of his desk. Rainer noticed that Terence quickly turned to his
direction upon hearing her name.
"Is Terence there?"
Carla asked again.
"Mr. Terence, he..." Rainer glanced at Terence and coughed. Then he continued, "Mr. Terence is busy
right now. Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Well, I'm in XH Restaurant. Can you please check if it would be possible for him to come here at
lunchtime? I need to talk to him," Carla directly stated.
