Chapter 122 Terence Is Devious
Chapter 122 Terence Is Devious
At the entrance of Terence's villa, Nathan and Rainer were helping Carla carry her things to her
designated bedroom. Carla took her time to look at the two of them, then on the villa. It had been a long
time since the last time she was there. She sighed and turned to look at Terence.
From the moment they left the apartment to the time they arrived at the villa, Carla kept asking him
again and again, "Before I get out of the car, I'm saying this for the last time. Have you really thought
this through? Do you really want me and my brother to live with you in your house?"
With one arm on her shoulder, Terence replied to her again as they walked towards the villa, "Of
course, I have mentioned many times that this is my home. And in the near future, after we get married,
it will become our home. You will become the hostess of this house. So, you don't have to live in that
small apartment anymore."
Carla became silent for a short while, and then she pointed out, "But it's far from Sean's school. He has
to get up thirty minutes earlier than before."
"If he's going to give up thirty minutes of sleep so he can live in a better house, I believe he'll be okay
with that," Terence assured her. After entering the villa, he asked his maid to prepare a drink for Carla
and bring it upstairs.
Carla didn't say anything. She thought, 'He's putting me at risk little by little. Because if he's kind to me,
other women will become jealous which puts me be in a dangerous position.'
Carla's bedroom was between Terence's and Sean's. This time, he didn't force her to sleep in his
bedroom. Perhaps, it was because he knew that this time, Carla would live in the house for a long time.
While Carla was still cleaning her bedroom, someone knocked on the door. After she called out, "Come
in," the door opened to reveal Rainer.
He turned to Terence and stated, "Mr. Terence, Miss Bonnie is on her way here. Her car will arrive at
the villa's area in five minutes."
At that time, Terence was helping Carla hang up her clothes. Upon hearing what Rainer had just said,
he turned to look at him.
He whispered to himself, "What is she doing here?"
He closed the cupboard door and rolled down his sleeves. He then turned to Carla and told her, "Carla,
you don't have to hide in your bedroom. You have the freedom to roam around in this house."
With a scornful laugh, Carla asked, "Really? Are you sure that I don't have to hide in the rooftop?"
Terence raised his eyebrows at Carla and walked towards her to pinch her chin playfully. Then he
responded, "Of course you don't have to. There's no need to be afraid.
But I'm going to announce to the public that you're the one who saved my life in BH City. My elders had
always taught me to give back when someone helps me. Therefore, it's only appropriate for you to live
here.
In that case, even though my father doesn't approve of it, there's nothing he can do."
After his heartwarming words that seemed to calm and wrap Clara in an embrace, Terence stepped
closer to her. Then, he grabbed her waist and planted a kiss on her lips.
Rainer turned away and pretended not to see anything. 'Whenever Miss Carla is here, Mr. Terence
becomes so happy that he doesn't even care about showing his true feelings in front of me.
Oh, I almost forgot. Ever since he had installed a camera in Miss Carla's bedroom, he had long
forgotten how to spell the word 'shame', ' Rainer distracted himself with thoughts about the two of them.
Carla pinched Terence on the waist to take a peek at Rainer who was awkwardly looking at anywhere
but them. She blamed Terence internally, 'Can this man consider self-respect a little?'
"Oh..." Terence cried out a little more than necessary. He looked at Carla with a smile and teasingly
asked, "Carla, you've pinched me on my waist so many times. Can you pinch me on another place next
time?"
Carla lifted her hand to pinch his face, but she was immediately stopped by his hand. He smiled
sweetly as he held her hand and then kissed the back of it.
"Just a minute and I'll be back very soon," Terence told her as pink blushes threatened to appear on Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
her cheeks.
After that, Terence walked towards the door of the bedroom.
Rainer instantly followed him.
When Terence was walking down the stairs, Bonnie had just entered through the villa door.
"Terence..." Bonnie exclaimed. The moment she saw him, Bonnie strode briskly towards him with tears
in her beautiful eyes. By the time she stood in front of him, she had already burst into tears. She said, "I
am so sorry, Terence.
I apologize for what happened to Carla and her brother. It's all my fault. I made a mistake. I feel really
regretful for my impulsive act."
After Bonnie finished talking, something cold rose up in Terence's eyes. He cleverly and silently
avoided her hand and walked towards the sofa.
"Please take a seat. We're not in a hurry to talk about it. Leilani, bring me two cups of tea," Terence
ordered after calmly gesturing Bonnie to the living room.
Bonnie wiped her watery eyes and sat on the sofa with Terence. She was blaming herself for what
happened.
"Terence, I was very angry that day because Carla humiliated me in front of so many people. You have
to know that I have never been humiliated like that by anyone. Because of that, I was so angry that I
asked someone to find out some information about her.
Then I found the school where her brother goes to. I just wanted to teach her a lesson, have her
brother drop out of school so they could finally leave JA City.
However, my people hurt her brother without asking for my permission. When I got the news, I felt very
guilty and angry at them. I've never thought of hurting him. I just wanted to force him out of JA City.
Terence... I know I did a terrible thing. I shouldn't have taken advantage of your name and use it to
pressure the school,"
Bonnie explained comprehensively as she continued to sob. She kept her head down and held
Terence's arm shakily. She was trying everything to make herself look very pitiful.
With his back leaning against the sofa, a slow malicious smile appeared on Terence's face.
Then, he told her, "Bonnie, I'm really disappointed in you this time."
Bonnie froze for an instant because she didn't expect Terence would say it like that. Looking up at him,
she didn't know what to do.
"If you want revenge on someone else, of course, I'll help you. But Carla and her brother once rescued
me. Six months ago, I almost died in BH City. It was Carla and her brother who saved my life,"
Terence continued. He then removed his arm from Bonnie's hand as he stood up. He turned to her one
last time and said, "At that time, I took an oath to take good care of Carla and her brother.
Moreover, it's a rule of the An family that if people help us, we must kindly pay them back."
What Terence said really surprised Bonnie. She shook her head and stated, "I know nothing about this.
If I had known, I wouldn't have done anything to hurt them…."
Terence poured a cup of coffee for himself. Then he turned to her with a serious look on his face and
replied, "I know it was an accident and you didn't mean that. But please remember that you are my
fiancee. So, I must take responsibility for your actions.
In order to fix all the mistakes you made, I have already brought them here and arranged rooms for
them."
Bonnie was stunned by the sudden news.
She thought, 'Did I just shot myself in the foot?'
"Sean got hurt because of you. In order to offer him a better environment to rest and study, I decided to
take care of him before they leave JA City. So for the following days, Sean and his sister will live here
with me. I think you'll be okay with my decision, won't you?"
Terence asked with raised eyebrows as he took a sip of his coffee and leaned on the sofa once again.
In fact, she didn't have any right to say 'no'. She wavered that off the moment she ordered her people
to look into Carla.
Bonnie removed the disbelief on her face and forced a smile.
She responded, "Well, I can't agree more. We should look after them. I'm the one who should be
blamed for his injury. What's more, they saved your life six months ago. We're supposed to do
something for them."
Terence nodded his head and addressed Rainer who was standing beside them, "Rainer, go upstairs
and invite Miss Carla here. Tell her that there's no need to be mad anymore. And ... tell her that Bonnie
wants to meet with her to apologize."
Rainer nodded his head and started to walk towards Carla's bedroom.
He thought to himself, 'Mr. Terence is becoming more and more devious.
Not only did he bring his loved one—Miss Carla—at home to live with him, but he's also forcing Miss
Bonnie to apologize to her in an ingenious way. Although she's very angry with what Mr. Terence has
done for Miss Carla and her brother, there's nothing she can do.
I'm sure that what happened today will make her blood boil.'
A moment later, Carla was walking downstairs.
It was unexpected that Terence didn't ask her to hide in her bedroom this time. Instead, he was asking
her to meet people.
"Carla, come here," Terence acknowledged her as soon as he saw her.
Seeing that Carla was close to the end of the stairs, Terence placed his coffee on the table and stood
up to greet her.
His attitude towards Carla made Bonnie subconsciously clench her fist.
When she saw Bonnie sitting on the sofa, Carla became a little nervous. After all, Bonnie was
Terence's fiancee.
Terence took Carla by the wrist and asked her to sit on the sofa. Then he turned around and shouted,
"Leilani, serve a cup of tea for Miss Carla."
