Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 291 Fight For Her Love (Part Two)

"Miss Carla, please practice extra caution when you pass through the corridors. At first, I had a hard

time comprehending what Mr. Terence was thinking when he had these handrails installed. Now, I

realize what he intended it for. He could be so thoughtful sometimes!" Sophie remarked, smiling at

Carla.

Holding a bowl of hot bone soup in her hands, Sophie approached Carla from the other side of the

hallway.

Sophie used to think that those handrails would practically be useless, apart from it taking up so much

space.

The second she saw Miss Carla trying to move around while holding onto the handrails, all of a

sudden, everything became as clear as day.

She was aware that Miss Carla had gotten her leg injured and had a hard time moving around, but, of

course, she couldn't really refrain from walking around the villa from time to time.

Besides helping her stay upright and preventing her from falling on the floor, these handrails could also

help her exercise and rehabilitate her leg.

At the end of the day, it would indeed be too much of a hassle to move around the house using

crutches, and Carla had never really been fond of bothering other people a lot.

"Miss Carla, Mr. Terence had asked us to prepare some soup for you. Would you prefer to come to

your room and eat it there, or...?" Sophie asked, giving her a soft smile.

As soon as Carla went back home, the ambiance all around the house became much warmer, and

Sophie also thought that it felt great having her there.

"Thank you very much, Sophie. I really appreciate it. I'll just have it in my room," Carla answered,

politely smiling back at her. Then, she made her way to her room as Sophie walked right behind her.

"Alright!"

Sophie responded with a lighthearted grin.

As warm as a fireplace, Carla felt the flame ignite, burning intensely within her heart. In spite of the

autumn night being gloomy and chilly, she didn't feel cold whatsoever.

It was as though she had been wrapped in a blanket of Terence's compassion, making it beyond

compare to anyone else's.

Swinging the door open for Sophie, she let her in and had her place the soup on the table.

Hearing the sound of the door to Carla's room open, Terence immediately stepped out of his study,

hanging up the phone on whoever it was he had been talking to.

From the moment she arrived at the villa, she had been talking nonstop with Sean in his room. He

didn't want to bother them having a conversation, wanting to give them some time to catch up, so he

just opted to stay inside the study upon their return.

"Sophie, just go ahead and put the soup down on the table. You should take some rest now. It's already

getting late," Terence instructed Sophie before walking over to Carla.

"Alright, Mr. Terence, Miss Carla. You have a good night's sleep!"

Sophie wore a bright smile, glancing at the two of them before going out and closing the door behind

her.

As soon as Sophie was out of the room, Carla instantly felt a bit awkward. Shifting her gaze over to the

man who had just entered the room, he was intently staring at her without even blinking once.

"Why are you looking at me that way?" she questioned him.

Carefully lifting her up, Terence carried her over toward the sofa and put her down. Then, he went

ahead and took a seat beside her as well, grabbing the bowl of bone soup for her.

After that he told her, "I found out that when the unfortunate accident occurred, you were trying to

protect Noah..."

Truth be told, after hearing about the accident, he quickly looked into it at that time, including Noah's

car, on which he had also personally dispatched Nathan to inspect even the most minute of details.

Noah was so cautious that he couldn't risk forgetting about having his car disposed of right away after

getting into that accident.

Be that as it may, the more heedful Noah tried to be, the more skeptical Terence had become.

"At that very moment, I remembered how he had helped me back in HA City once before. And for that

very reason, I just thought it would just be right to pay him back for it," Carla shot a quick glance at

Terence and replied. Then, she started sipping the bowl of warm pig bone soup.

She knew that it might have appeared as if she had been so eager to save another man, so Terence

must have been so disappointed in her.

But the reality of it was so far from that. In fact, Noah was close to being a stranger to her. And the only

reason she did that was because she didn't want to owe someone like him anything.

"Carla, have you ever questioned or harbored any suspicion about this car accident?" Terence flatly

asked.

Terence sat right across her and stared straight into her eyes with his eyebrows deeply knitted. Now

that the gears had begun turning and she had discovered the truth that she was the only biological

daughter of the Hua family, he thought that it would probably be the best time to start everything from

scratch.

The situation was actually desperate, and the Hua family was an ever far more unpredictable place

than he originally thought it to be.

Now that she was back with the Hua family, it was for certain that she would have to frequent that place

in the long run. With that in mind, Terence thought it would be important to inform her about the current

circumstances surrounding the Hua family, and most of all, to tell her about Noah's true intentions.

Taking another sip of the soup, she closed her eyes for a second, trying real hard to picture out the

condition they were in when the accident occurred.

"Actually, Noah, seemed to be a bit out of it before it happened. But he said he was so exhausted

during that day. So, I was under the assumption that driving while being over fatigued was the main

reason why the accident happened," Carla gathered her thoughts.

Actually, she was completely aware that Noah barely had enough strength to be driving that day, so

she just accepted the idea that it was all just an accident. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

"Is that so? Then, why hadn't your airbag gone off immediately upon impact? Apart from being the

general manager running the Hua Group of companies, Noah was also the eldest son of the Hua

family. Do you honestly believe that the safety features of his car could be so subpar?" Terence

asserted.

Squinting his eyes, Terence sneered and had his gaze fixated on her. Going on, he added, "Carla, if

only the airbag on your side of the front seat had activated during that time, at the very least, the brain

damage you received could have probably been avoided."

Carla intently stared at him that time, placing the bowl on the table in front of her.

Looking at Terence in utter disbelief, she exclaimed, "Terence, do you mean to tell me that Noah... was

really intending to hurt me?"
