Chapter 608 Bumped Into Zora



Chapter 608 Bumped Into Zora

"Don't worry about it, Uncle James. We prepared this for you and Uncle Mike. This little gift is a token

of our regard,"

Carla smiled as she gave a glance to Nathan, who was busily moving the bags inside.

Then, she looked at Mike.

Now, it seemed that Mike's expression softened.

Soon, lunch was ready and was spread gorgeously on the table.

They dished up a superb meal.

However, Terence was tired of eating the same stuff. He barely had anything and only had a few bites.

They left the house in the afternoon, and they went to the beautiful riverside.

The view was especially ethereal. The sky was clear. The water rippled quietly. The air was clean as if

the grass was just cut and smelled fresh while the gentle breeze brushed against their skin. It was a

tranquil place, far away from the busy streets in the city.

The tent was set up by Nathan and Rainer. Everything was well-prepared and ready. All the things that

they might need were available. Of course, the tent that they brought was also comfy.

They decided to put up a tent here because

they wanted to give Terence a place to relax and rest.

Deep in the night, they could sleep inside the tent.

Although James' house was enormous and had enough spare rooms for guests, Terence normally

didn't like to spend the night at someone else's home. James had kindly asked his son to clean and

prepare the rooms, but Terence preferred not to trouble them.

If Terence had to be honest, he still actually needed to take care of some business matters and didn't

really have the time to have a small talk with him.

Carla took Sean and Sally downstream where there were more fish to see. A girl named Jane came

along with them as well.

"Sally, wait over there! Mommy is going to catch a big fish for you!"

"Okay! Mommy, can we grill it after you catch one?"

The river was clear enough for the fish to be seen. Each one was lively. Carla could see the carps

swimming a little deeper into the river. She rolled up her sleeves up to her arms as well as her pants up

to her knees. She took off her shoes and then jumped into the river. As she splashed into the water, a

small wave was created and some of the fish swam away.

Meanwhile, Sally sat down by the riverbank and kept searching for fish for her mother. Suddenly, she

found one and pointed to it while she called out, "Mommy, over there! Over there! There's a fish!"

Carla carefully walked towards the direction Sally pointed to. However, the fish swam away the moment

she got closer.

"Mommy, you're so clumsy… You scared them away…"

Sally laughed at Carla as she watched the fish scamper away.

Carla splashed some water on her and faked an angry face. "How dare you laugh at your mommy? Did

you forget who was the one catching the fish for you in BT Village?"

"Ha-ha. I didn't. It was Aunty Cathy and Brother Bob!"

replied Sally. She ran over to Sean who was picking fruits for her from a tree and yelled, "Uncle Sean!

Can you please catch a fish for me? I want to eat some grilled fish later!"

Upon hearing her, Sean jumped down from the tree.

Jane picked up the avocado that fell from the tree that Sean shook.

Everyone played and enjoyed the moment as they relaxed.

"I got one!"

After a while of hard work and patience, Carla was finally able to catch a fish. Although it wasn't a big

one, she was really happy because of her effort.

"Sis, look at mine!"

Sean raised his hand up high to show off the big fish he just caught.

Carla looked the size of the fish in his hand and looked down at the fish in her hand. Hers was

comparably small. She rolled her eyes at him.

"Sean, look! There is another one!"

Jane called out to Sean and pointed to his feet when she saw the fish swimming around him.

While Carla was busy trying to catch a bigger fish than Sean's without any regard for her image, a

person called her name, "Carla?

It's really you! I thought I was mistaken."

Once she heard her name, Carla turned towards the direction where the voice came from.

A woman with a golden wavy hair and a fashionable dress approached her. She seemed familiar but

Carla couldn't point out where she could've possibly met the stranger.

"Do you remember who I am? We used to be classmates back in primary school."

Carla thought for a moment before she tried to guess, "Zora?"

A name finally popped up in her mind.

Zora was a girl from a nearby village. She had been quite popular in the area when she was younger,

and she was smart as well. And because of that, Carla heard that she was sent to study overseas.

Back then, everyone knew about her and looked up to her.

"Yes, it's me! I am surprised you still remembered my name! I just returned from abroad this morning.

When I arrived, I thought I should visit the area and stroll. I never expected I'd bump into you and see

you here!" This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

exclaimed Zora when she suddenly took notice of the three children near Carla.

"Who are they?"

There were three villages near the river and it was no surprise to see a familiar figure.

"This is my daughter. He is my younger brother. She is my cousin,"

Carla introduced with a smile as she walked out the river and put her shoes on.

Once Zora affirmed each one's identity, she took another look at Sally. "Time really flies. I can't believe

you're married now. And you even have a beautiful big girl now!"

She stayed abroad for about ten years and only came back now. Therefore, she didn't know much

about what happened to Carla.

"I know! How about you? Are you still single?"

Earlier, Carla straightened up her clothes before finally taking a stroll along the river with Zora. They

were catching up on each other's lives.

"Yes, still single. I'm only twenty eight years old. Not yet ready to commit myself to marriage,"

Zora smiled confidently.

"Unlike me, my sisters didn't have anything much to do thus, my parents urged them to get married

during their early twenties. As for me, I landed myself a job in one of the top 500 companies and have a

successful career. I'd feel ashamed if I don't work myself hard!

Ugh. Carla, don't get me wrong. I wasn't trying to hurt your feelings!"

When Zora saw the look on Carla's face, she suddenly realized she accidentally mentioned something

inappropriate. She tried to lighten up the mood and cracked a smile.

Carla froze for a short moment and shook her head.

"Don't worry about it."

replied Carla. Then, she turned and asked Sean to keep an eye on Sally.

They continued to stroll along the river.

Everything Zora talked about was her awesome life overseas and the famous people she met. She

also seemed to be a successful businesswoman.

"Carla, if you ever have a chance to visit France, let me know. I'll show you around. You don't have to

worry about anything. I'll take care of you!"

When Zora had had enough boasting, she declared so to Carla.

Her arrogance made Carla speechless. Without commenting, she only returned a smile.

"Oh, right! Carla, what does your husband do?"

asked Zora and suddenly examined Carla from head to toe.

Carla played in the river earlier to catch fish and Zora hadn't had the time to observe her from the

excitement. Now that Zora did, she realized the Carla was wearing a luxury brand.

"He owns a business,"

replied Carla. After she thought about it, she didn't reveal too much since she didn't like to brag.

She had been together with Terence for so long now that she felt like she was getting used into having

a famous husband. But even though he was famous, she didn't like telling everyone who her husband

was.

"Really? That's not bad! As long as they can manage well, a lot of small businesses in our country

thrive!"

Zora enthusiastically nodded. She never would've thought that Carla's husband would be wealthy and

powerful.

And Carla never bothered to explain as she felt it was unnecessary.

Soon, they arrived upstream.

The tent that stood upright was noticed by Zora. When her eyes came across the logo on the tent, her

eyes opened wide with shock.

"Do you see the AJ Group logo on the tent?

What a coincidence! Carla! I work for one of the sub companies of the AJ Group abroad! Although the

headquarters is in JA City, its businesses are all over the world!"

Upon hearing that, Carla kept calm and nodded her head.

"I know."

She had previously seen the business map inside the AJ Building. It was indeed amazing.

If the business wasn't big and operated globally, Terence wouldn't have endless work in front of him

every day.

However, there was one thing that Carla didn't expect.

Zora had been showing off all this time. Only then to find out that she actually worked for a sub

company of the AJ Group outside the country.
