Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 402 Who Told You To Cut Your Hair

Carla was worried about which clothes she should wear before facing Terence. Now that he suddenly

appeared by her bedroom door, just as she was naked, perhaps she could save all the trouble.

Terence stood still with his hand on the doorknob. His starry eyes pierced through Carla, who had one

of her feet lifted as she was attempting to get dressed.

The pink underwear that she had on accented her smooth body and the short haircut added a touch of

charm on her delicate face. She met his starry eyes with a shocked look.

Carla subconsciously grabbed a piece of cloth and wrapped it around her body. She stepped back, sat

on the bed, and covered herself with the quilt.

"What's wrong with you? I was going to open the door. Why did you barge in like that?" Carla grumbled

with her lips, pouted.

Hearing her softly complain, Terence couldn't help but burst into laughter. He didn't expect to witness

such a treat when he entered the room.

He kept his silence and lightly bolted the door before walking towards her.

"Can't the husband be with his dear wife even though she's changing her clothes?" Terence uttered

with his husky voice as he walked closer to her.

When he laid his eyes on the clothes scattered all over the bed, he had a rough idea of what took Carla

so long to get downstairs.

He picked up a piece of clothing and handed it to her before asking, "You don't know what to wear, do

you? How about this one? It kind of matches your new haircut."

"Hmmm, okay. You can put it there and wait for me outside. I will be downstairs in a minute," Carla

said.

She didn't move a muscle and sat on the bed with the quilt tightly wrapped around her body.

Since they hadn't seen each other for a month, it was a little awkward to be stark naked in front of him.

What's more, she was the only one unclothed while they were having this conversation. It made things

much more strange than it was. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Terence couldn't let go of her so quickly. He almost closed the gap between them and sat on the bed.

He raised his hand, and tenderly touched her smooth hair.

The short haircut made her small face more beautiful and enchanting. It even complimented her

sparkling eyes, which brightened up his heart whenever he stared at them.

"Carla..." His soft whispers sent a million volts of electrifying excitement to her.

"Hmm?" Carla struggled to mutter something.

"I've missed you."

"I know."

"And who told you to cut your hair?"

"It's my hair. Get out of my way."

"You know you look like a minor with that haircut right now. People probably think that I hooked up with

a Senior High School student and trafficked you for money."

Terence tried to sound serious, but a sly chuckle still escaped his mouth, much to Carla's surprise.

He kept on asking loads of questions about her. Quite obviously, he missed her a lot.

She answered him coolly while still sitting on the bed.

After a while, Carla stared at him with rage. She subconsciously stroked her hair and asked, "Do you

really think it looks too childish for me?"

She picked up a small mirror from the drawer and studied her reflection. After a while, she said, "My

hair is not that bad. It will look better when it grows a little longer."

Terence suddenly pushed away her soft hand that was holding the mirror. He lowered his head and

landed a kiss on her pink lips while his other hand went under the quilt and grabbed her small waist.

"Carla, will you marry me?" he tenderly asked.

After a few seconds, Carla threw her arms around his neck and replied, "That's it? That's all that you're

going to say?

I thought there will be some other cheesy lines like 'I will protect you and love you with my whole life.'"

"'Marry me' are the two most romantic words in the world," Terence said as he touched his forehead

with hers. Now that he had made up his mind to marry Carla, he was well prepared for everything that

could happen in the future.

He wanted to spend the rest of his life with her and make up for it. This time, he wished to make

everything right and prove to her that he would do everything to protect her.

But action spoke louder than words. He didn't want her to think that all he could do was to make those

empty promises. He was sure as hell in marrying the only woman he ever loved.

Carla blinked her eyes in disbelief. She then lifted his chin and asked, "Are you proposing to me right

now?"

When she realized that she was totally naked in this serious moment, she couldn't help but flash him a

cheeky smile.

"Don't you think that you are not taking this whole proposal thing seriously? Although I want to keep a

low profile, I can only have one marriage proposal in my whole life and I want to enjoy it."

Terence grabbed her fingertips and squeezed them in his hand. He wore an enchanting smile on his

face and replied, "Okay. When we get back, I will throw you a grand marriage proposal. It will definitely

cause a sensation in the whole city, catching everyone's attention. It'll be published in the newspapers

and magazines!"

Hearing what he said, Carla couldn't help but burst into laughter. 'Since when did he become such a

romantic?' she silently thought.

"Are you going to go downstairs and eat dinner with that bed sheet wrapped around your body? Mom

has already prepared dinner for us. We should hurry,"

Terence said as he gently pulled the quilt and handed her some clothes.

"All right. I will go outside. You should get dressed now!"

He stood up from the bed and prepared to leave.

Carla heaved a sigh of relief. She immediately loosened the quilt and was ready to put on the clothes.

But just as she picked it up, she found that she had walked straight into a trap laid by Terence.

He suddenly turned around and pushed her on the bed while the clothes were still in her hands. He

pinned her under his body with his hands tightly gripping hers.

He gasped for air and threw away the clothes that laid between their bodies.

Carla was totally taken by surprise. Seeing him bend over and plant kisses on her collarbone, she

pleaded, "Terence, how about we have dinner first? You can spend the night here if you want. We can

go back to your house tomorrow. What do you think?" Carla struggled to keep her voice firm, although

she was already losing it.

Terence nodded in agreement, but he kept on aggressively kissing her. "Carla, thank you so much for

being in my life. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me!" Terence murmured and

continued to plant soft kisses on her body.

"I don't think so. Even without me, you can still have a wonderful life,"

Carla said as she looked deep into the familiar face that had been carved in her heart.

"That's not true. Without you, my life would be incomplete. I would be incomplete. Whenever I'm with

you, I can be my best self. Only you know me deep down to my soul. I can't wait to experience this life

with you," Terence lovingly replied.

He was drowning in the extreme fires of his burning love for Carla.

"I feel the same way too. If I hadn't met you, I would have spent my whole life in this small BH City."

She put her arms around his neck and continued, "Terence, it's all in the past now. You don't have to

feel guilty about it anymore. We can't have everything under our control. Let's start fresh and look

forward to a brand new future together."

That was also the reason why she chose to forgive Noah. She wanted to focus on the silver lining of life

and move on.

"Carla." Terence softly called with his furrowed brows before kissing her again on the lips.

A relieved smile registered on his face as he tenderly stared at her. This was the woman he loved. No

matter how difficult it was, she could always adjust herself in such a short amount of time.

She was still that girl he met in BH City. Nothing had changed about her. She still had a positive outlook

on life and a passion for everything.

It seemed that no matter how hard and miserable life was, she never gave up. She was a strong

warrior.

She had wholly conquered his heart.

While they both lovingly stared at each other, a sudden loud knock was heard.

"Terence? Callie? Let's eat, or dinner will get cold!"

Andrea, who was outside the door, called when she noticed they had been in the bedroom for a while.

"Coming, mom!"

Carla immediately replied and once again flashed a cheeky smile at Terence.
