Chapter 605 No Way
Chapter 605 No Way
The moment Terence walked in, he cracked a smile with pleasure once he saw how stunning Carla
was.
"Alright, let's go. I am ready!"
Carla said as she picked up her purse.
Nathan and Rainer walked in. They went into the room to help bring their luggage down.
Terence held Carla's hand and went downstairs.
They headed to the most famous royal garden and spent a considerable time there. Later in the
afternoon, they finally went back to JA City.
Carla received a phone call from Sean while they were on the road.
Sean told Carla that he just finished all his final exams. He also mentioned that he would be in JA City
today.
Upon hearing the news, Carla's heart raced with joy. She would finally be united with her dear brother
again!
Her life seemed to finally be back on track.
"Carla, are you that excited?"
Terence gazed at Carla and was happy to see her animated expression after she received the call from
her brother.
"Of course! I only have one brother! I have been taking care of him since he was a little boy. Why
wouldn't I feel excited about his return?"
Carla replied as she looked at Terence.
Terence wasn't close to his brothers. His family was more like the ancient royal family. His brothers
either fought with each other to be the successor of the family or took sides to gain the most profit. He
didn't understand how ties between siblings worked.
However, Terence didn't say anything to ruin her moment. He just let out a gentle smile.
Carla and Sean had a really good relationship. No one in the Hua family could replace Sean in Carla's
heart. Terence was sure that no one meant more to Carla than her brother Sean.
"Oh, since Sean is going to be back, I am thinking of taking him to the old house in BH City for a couple
of days. In that case, we can visit our parents' grave. It is also the time for him to pay the Ji family a
visit. He hasn't been home for many years."
As Carla mentioned her proposal to Terence, she immediately thought of their relationship with their
family. She and Sean had grown up in the Ji family. Although as the years passed by, they both
became distant.
But she couldn't just let Sean forget where he came from.
"You are going to BH City again?"
Terence immediately furrowed his eyebrows after hearing Carla's idea. It reminded him of the accident
she had four years ago. They had been separated for four years because of her last visit to BH City.
He was like a burnt child who dreaded any kind of fire or flame.
"If you want, I can send someone to pick up all your relatives in the Ji family from BH City. You can just
meet them in JA City. Would that work for you instead?"
Terence suggested. He would rather go through the trouble of picking up her family than risk losing her
again in another accident.
"Don't you think it doesn't make sense to pick up people from BH City and drop them off in JA City so
just so that we could meet them? I want to take Sean to visit the village where the Ji family is. You can't
move the whole village here, can you?"
Carla replied, as she flashed a narrow and quirky smile at Terence.
Carla and Sean grew up in the BH City. However, the Ji family was in a remote village under the
government of BH City.
"Hm... It is not impossible. Let me think about it."
Terence seemed to seriously consider planning to pick up the Ji family.
Seeing how serious his tone changed, Carla quickly walked over and stopped him. "Terence, don't do
it! What happened four years ago was an accident! It is very unlikely to happen again! Don't worry
about it. The weather there is great! There is no drought or flood. As long as we drive carefully, we will
be fine!"
After hearing her words, Terence still frowned in displeasure.
"No! Although there is no drought or flood, you can't possible avoid landslides, earthquakes or drunk
drivers on the road no matter how careful you are while driving."
Carla suddenly ran out any words.
Her mind completely went blank after hearing his unreasonable logic. The possibility of them
experiencing such accidents he mentioned was slim to none. She opened her mouth and tried to say
something. However, she couldn't find the right words to convey what she wanted to say to Terence.
"How about this? Let's take the plane, and I will go with you and Sean."
Terence proposed to Carla after careful consideration.
"Are you sure taking the airplane is safe enough? The plane might crash. Are you sure about that?"
Carla retorted as she glared at him.
"I will be there with you. It will be fine. If the plane had issues, I am 99.99999% sure I can let you safely
land on the ground!"
Terence responded to Carla with an unflinching tone in his voice. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
He considered Carla in JA City as under his careful watch.
He was not going to put his heart back to his chest if she was not in the city.
Carla sighed and said, "Mr. Terence, you are a busy businessman. You have a huge company that
needs your attention. You can't waste your time on me like that."
"I promise you I will come back to you in whole. Okay?"
Terence leaned back on the chair and looked at her with his arms crossed over his chest. He raised his
eyebrows and smiled, "Your promise doesn't count."
"I am working hard to give you and our kid a better life. Taking care of the family business is definitely
on the top of my list. If anything happened to you, what is the point of me earning that much of
money?"
"Therefore, I have to make sure that you are safe no matter how precious my time is."
Carla tried to argue back. "But I..."
"NO WAY!"
Terence interrupted and forced her to keep her words from leaving her mouth. His tone became
stronger and more authoritative, as if his decision was final.
Carla let out a sigh in anger and continued to glare at him.
She felt she lost her freedom, and she felt her words were falling on deaf ears.
She was thinking of taking Sean back to their old house and relive their past in the village.
However, Terence did not allow them to head to the village by themselves. There was no chance for
her to run around the field. They wouldn't be able to jump into the river to catch fish. There was no way
for her to climb up a tree and gather fruits.
Although she was a mother, she didn't want to lose all the fun she once experienced when she was
growing up.
The time went by in the car silently. An hour later, they were back to the Seaview Villa.
Sean had already arrived before them.
Before Carla walked inside, she heard lots of laughter coming from the house. Sally's typical shrill voice
and Sean's cheerful giggles filled the house.
"Sis, you are here!"
Sean saw Carla first. A big smile formed on his young handsome face. He stood up and went to Carla.
Sally was standing in front of Sean. After hearing Sean's words, she immediately turned around. When
her eyes locked on Carla, she scampered over.
"Mommy! Mommy! You are home too!"
"Ha-ha! That's awesome! Uncle Sean and Mommy are both home!"
Sally jumped and wrapped her arms over Carla's neck as Carla bent down to hug her. Sally gave Carla
a big kiss on the cheek and said, "Mommy, I miss you so much!"
"Gee, where is Daddy?"
"Daddy is outside. He'll be here soon."
Carla said as she rubbed Sally's angelic face and kissed her back.
She hadn't left Sally at home for a long time. But, for the past two days she had been worried about
her.
Sally stopped being clingy since Sean came back. She had been following Sean everywhere. She kept
asking him to play with her.
Sean really liked his little niece. He was excited to play with her and with everything she wanted to do.
Even at night, Sally asked Sean to tell her bedtime stories.
Terence felt a bit jealous at Sean and Sally's relationship.
"Don't you think Sally likes Sean too much? Since we came back, she only let me hold her twice. She
keeps asking Sean to play with her all the time."
Terence said with a wry smile on his face as he assessed the situation after he went back to his room.
"I know! I tried to talk to her once, she didn't even bother to reply to me!"
Carla was sitting on the couch. She shot him a glance and replied.
Terence frowned. He sat closer to her and said, "Carla, I am a little worried. I don't know if I thought
about it too much."
"What is it? Why are you so serious?"
Apparently, Carla couldn't just put her phone down. She kept checking her phone before looking up at
Terence.
