Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 116 Give You A Drawerful Of Diamond Rings

After hearing Carla's words, Terence felt amused as he ended up laughing. Then he turned to stare at

Carla who seemed to be a little shy at that moment.

"It is you who trained me to be thick-skinned. You can also ask others to check whether I've chased

other women before?"

It was the first time that he had chased a woman, but he was often annoyed by her. Even though he

tried to do a lot of things to please her, he was always ignored by her. He had pursued her for almost

half a year. Despite that, he didn't even get a chance to make love to her.

At last, they could finally start to be in a steady relationship. They might still have to face many

difficulties and have the hard time to go through in the future.

However, Terence wasn't frightened or terrified by the future. He was indeed excited about it.

Thinking of the future which he would lead a happy life with Carla, he was full of hope and strength.

"You are a man of noble birth and have been being admired by others ever since you were a child.

Hence, the girls you like may have surely shown their affection for you willingly and you didn't have to

chase any of them, of course,"

Carla responded, casually casting an annoyed glance at the ring on Terence's slender middle finger.

The ring was designed for men, with a diamond inserted in the wider area of the ring. The diamond

appeared to be sparkling under the light.

To Carla's surprise, Terence's ring looked somewhat similar to the ring which Bonnie wore.

Carla dropped her gaze, pretending not to notice that. Since Terence had been engaged to Bonnie, it

was fine for them to wear the rings designed in the same style.

Instinctively, Carla stretched her right hand to touch her left hand without any ring on it. Then she stood

up from the sofa and said, "It's getting late. I have to go back to my room to sleep."

"Why do you have to go to bed so early?" Seeing Carla suddenly stand up and make her way to the

bedroom, Terence felt confused, wondering why Carla, who looked so energetic until now, got

exhausted all of sudden.

After having turned off the TV, Terence also stood up, following her into the bedroom.

Carla just lay down on the bed. She yawned, changed to a comfortable sleeping posture and then

pulled the quilt to cover herself. "If you want to stay here, you can sleep on the sofa. After all, you've

gotten used to sleeping on it," she blurted out.

Having noticed a visible change in her tone, Terence got faintly suspicious, raising his eyebrows

slightly.

After staying by the bedside and staring at her for a while, Terence tried to recall and figure out what

had happened within just a few minutes that made Carla annoyed to this extent.

Suddenly, he remembered that her gaze was glued to his hand a while ago.

Seeming to realize something, Terence touched his head and glanced at the ring on his finger. After

that, he pulled Carla's quilt aside and lied down beside her.

He reached across her chest and put his hand around her shoulder, whispering in her ear, "Carla, this

is not the couple's ring!"

He remembered that when they had a meal today, Bonnie wore the diamond ring which he gave her.

He assumed that Carla might have seen Bonnie's ring today, and since she also saw his ring which he

wore on his finger now, she might have been under the impression that he and Bonnie wore the

couple's rings.

After all, women had natural sharp eyes and could observe everything carefully.

Sometimes, men weren't as careful and cautious as women. They wouldn't notice the details and the

intricacies. On the other hand, in a woman's eyes, even a petty thing would attract attention and would

be eventually analyzed cautiously.

Keeping her eyes closed, Carla rubbed her arm against Terence's arm and replied, "Well, you don't

owe me an explanation regarding it. She is your fiancée, so you have the freedom to do anything you

like."

She thought of what Bonnie said today and learned that Bonnie's ring and bracelet were given by

Terence. As they had been engaged, it was only normal and a popular custom for Terence to give

Bonnie some gifts.

Terence leaned against Carla's ear and spoke in a low voice, "Carla, you can go and check the cabinet

of my house. There are a lot of rings like this in there. I casually picked one of those rings to wear

before I stepped out today. In fact, the styles of diamond rings are almost similar. The diamond rings in

itself, though intricate in design, perhaps appear the same."

"Um..."

Carla murmured, her eyes still closed. She breathed evenly, seeming to fall asleep.

She wasn't that narrow-minded. It wasn't easy to erupt envy from her. Although she felt a bit unhappy

when she noticed Terence's ring just a while ago, she was relieved and chose to not think about this

matter anymore after hearing his explanation.

Carla felt tired and sleepy, gradually falling asleep in his arms.

"Carla?"

Terence called out her name to no avail as he discovered she had dozed off.

Sighing, he stared at Carla who was peacefully asleep, resting her head on his arm. Being slightly

agitated at the turn of events, he took off his ring and casually tossed it to the desk beside the bed.

In the next morning, when Carla woke up, Terence had already left.

She caught sight of the ring and wondered why Terence took off his ring even though she hadn't said

anything in particular to displease him.

After stretching herself, Carla pulled open the drawer, intending to put the ring into it.

However, she was stunned the moment she opened the drawer.

The glittering things in the drawer dazzled Carla. She suddenly assumed that it was just an illusion, but

after she rubbed her eyes, she found that everything she saw was true.

There were all kinds of diamond rings designed for women in the drawer. All of the diamond rings were

placed in exquisite, red or black boxes which were placed in order.

"1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6..." Carla counted and figured out there were 6 rows of ring boxes in the drawer and

each row contained 6 boxes. Thus there were a total of 36 rings there!

Besides, those rings were arranged according to the weight of diamonds, from the lightest one to the

heaviest one. The lightest diamond was less than 1 carat, while the diamond of the extra-large size

diamond ring reached 7 or even 8 carat.

Carla took the biggest diamond ring out of the drawer and wore it on her finger. To her surprise, it fit her

middle finger perfectly!

"Such a crazy man!

He's completely crazy!"

Carla shouted, taking off the ring.

She then began to wonder where Terence got so many diamond rings within just a night.

Quickly picking up the phone on the desk, she called Terence.

"Carla, why did you wake up this early?"

Terence greeted her in a relaxed voice, after Carla got the call connected.

"You're really crazy! You must be out of your mind! Was it you who put the rings in the drawer? " Carla

was so shocked seeing those many rings that her heart still kept racing now.

Terence replied in a calm voice, "Yes. I placed them there. I didn't know which type of diamond ring you

preferred, so I bought some rings with diamonds in all designs. You can choose any of them to wear as

long as you like.

These rings are the best and most expensive ones in JA City at present, but they are not the most

special ones. When we get married, I will give you a custom-made unique diamond ring!"

Carla was so stunned by Terence's words that she couldn't say anything at that moment. After a while

wherein absolute silence prevailed, she calmed herself down and spoke, "Terence, You're such a crazy

man. Come here and take away these rings right now!" she roared over the phone.

Did Terence take the drawer to be a safe box?

She didn't say anything about his ring last night and didn't even complain about anything at all, but why

was he so crazy to buy these many rings?

Terence was surprised to hear Carla yell at him. He had assumed this move would win him her heart in

a single stroke. He rubbed his ear and said, "Carla, I've given you these rings, so it is not appropriate

for me to take them back from you. If you like them, you can keep them; if you don't like them, you can

dispose of them in any way you like.

I have to go to the office later, so I need to hang up the phone now. Contact me if you need any help."

After he finished speaking, Terence hung up the phone.

"Terence..."

Noticing that Terence ended the phone call, Carla got furious and threw the phone on the bed. Then

she stared towards the shiny rings in the drawer.

After a while, she brushed her hair, took a deep breath and picked up her phone again to search for the

diamond rings on the Internet. At last she cast a good glance at those diamond rings.

Her hands even began to tremble faintly.

She had never seen so many expensive rings before all at once and had no idea of how much each of

them cost him.

She briefly calculated the total price of those rings and was surprised to know that it was worth about

60 million. Besides, the price of those diamond rings varied according to the different shapes and Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

processing of diamonds. Even if Carla had only roughly calculated the price, the total price astonished

her.

Generally having one diamond would be a miracle for an ordinary person in the whole life.

However, Terence, who hadn't gifted her any diamond before, chose to gift her a drawerful of diamond

rings all at once!

Even if she decided to put those rings on all her fingers and toes, there would still be many rings

remaining!
