Chapter 318 Climb To Window To See You
Noah kept silent for a while, and then looked away awkwardly. He said, "Carla, I'll take you to visit the
art exhibition tomorrow so we can see their process. And when your painting skills improve a little, I'll
help you hold an art exhibit."
"Really? I'll remember that! You have to keep your word, okay?"
Carla said while she blinked her eyes.
"Also, it's getting late. I'll help you get back to your room. You should go to bed early,"
Noah stated, already standing up.
"Okay, I'm actually tired," Carla said while she nodded.
Noah helped her leave the painting room. Then, he came back and put the books he brought her onto
the bookshelf. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Only then did he leave her room.
After Noah left, Carla realized that her drowsiness wore off from their walk towards her bedroom. So
she idly leaned on the cane chair by the window, enjoying the moonlight outside.
She hadn't seen Terence after the engagement banquet. In fact, she hadn't seen anyone other than
Noah, Andrea, and their servants. She just stayed at the mansion and didn't go out for the past half a
month.
Therefore, there wouldn't be a chance for her to meet Terence.
No words could express how much she missed him and Sean. Sometimes, she would also miss
Nicholas.
Carla could guess that the news of her engagement with Noah had already spread all over the city and
the business industry. The AJ Group was updated on all the news within the industry, so the Ans would
have certainly heard about the news by now.
Carla took the mobile phone on the small round table and looked through the pictures she had taken
with Terence one by one. While scrolling through the pictures, every happy memory that she had with
Terence replayed in her mind. Soon, tears began to flow from her eyes.
She couldn't take it anymore and placed the phone on the table.
Terence hadn't made any call to her after the engagement banquet. It had already happened twice
when she couldn't help but dial his number. But she would immediately hang up before the call could
get through. The reality was that she didn't have the courage to talk to him.
Terence didn't call her back as well. So she hadn't heard his voice and seen his face for almost twenty
days.
Carla was now finding out that Terence was right. Things were not that simple.
Before their engagement, Noah told her that he wouldn't stop her if she wanted to go back to JA City as
long as she took part in the engagement banquet.
But the reality was far from what she had expected.
Now that she was Noah's fiancee, how could she go back to JA City?
And even if she were to go back, she would always be reminded that she was already engaged. How
could she be happy with Terence then?
This invisible chain had bound her and separated her from Terence. It didn't just distance her from
Terence. It also created a wall between them where they could no longer ignore the circumstances.
Therefore, she thought that it would be better not to go back.
All these thoughts in her head made her unable to sleep or even feel drowsy. What was worse, there
was nothing that she could do to take her mind off it.
She looked at the clock and was disappointed to find out that it was only ten o'clock.
She suddenly thought of her brother and thought, 'Is Sean already sleeping right now?'
Carla took out her phone and sent a message to Sean. Recently, she had been in contact with him
through text messages. She would sometimes send him some pictures to let him know that she lived
happily here.
And Sean would send her voice messages.
After a while, a message came from the mobile phone.
—"Sean is asleep."
When Carla saw the message, she immediately became exhilarated. She sat up and replied to his
message.
—"Terence, is that you?"
—"Are you in Sean's bedroom? Why haven't you slept?"
But after waiting for a while, there was no response from the other side...
Carla waited until midnight, but still, there was no reply.
She stared at that single message that he sent while she bit her lips. Unconsciously, tears began to
shiver in her eyes. She had already presumed that Terence would be mad after seeing that Noah
kissed her. But even then, she still felt extremely heartbroken when Terence didn't respond once more.
He was ignoring her.
After a while of waiting for his reply, she reluctantly pressed the lock screen on the phone.
Just then, a push notification of a news appeared on the top of the phone screen.
She clicked it and the news article appeared on the screen.
However, when she saw the contents and pictures of the news, she was dumbfounded. She began to
read the news...
The news stated that Mr. Terence, the "royal prince" of JA City had been cheated on! His ex-girlfriend
got engaged to another man. The news even had the words, "It was a real pity" on it. The next picture
which was shot by a netizen showed Terence singing a romantic song for Carla in a restaurant.
Then she saw the picture which was set as the cover of the news.
In the picture, Terence was looking at Carla affectionately with a smile.
She kept on reading the news...
The news also posed that Edmund became extremely angry when he heard the news. And he was
already preparing for his son's marriage with other woman recently. Then the article ended with the
statement that Terence's marriage was approaching.
She should have stopped reading but she didn't. She continued to read the comments. The netizens
were all criticizing her. They all called her a "blind bitch". They said it was a privilege that Terence loved
her. She should have been honored but instead, she was so shameless that she cheated on him.
And there were a lot of female netizens saying that they were ready to be Terence's girlfriend.
After a while, she finally had enough. She couldn't look through the comments anymore, so she turned
off her cell phone. And then she grabbed the quilt and covered her head.
She thought, 'Uncle Edmund didn't like me at first. His attitude towards me only became a little better
recently and he was about to accept me. But now...'
Carla breathed deeply to calm herself down. She continued to think, 'Uncle Edmund is proud and
arrogant. There was no doubt that he wouldn't accept my engagement with Noah. By now, he must be
eager to have Terence marry someone else.'
Carla sat up from her bed and rubbed her messy hair while looking into the distance with a deep frown.
She sighed and thought, 'No. I can't accept that! Terence can't marry another woman!
If Terence would be forced to marry another woman, all the effort that I have made so far will be in vain.
I just want to marry Terence with an identity that would be more suitable for his status. If he really gets
married to another woman right now, it will be impossible for me to become her bride even if I'm the
Hua family's daughter!
But, what should I do now? Actually, what could I even do?
I'm still Noah's fiancee and it would be a while before I could get out of this engagement. On top of that,
my leg hasn't even recovered yet so I can't walk! I can't run! I can't run back to JA City and see
Terence!'
Carla was becoming hysterical. She kept repeating in her head, 'What should I do?!'
While she was about to go crazy and her hair was in a mess, she heard a voice outside the window.
At first, she didn't pay much attention to it. But after a while, she heard someone knocking on the
window.
Carla held her breath and listened carefully to the sound outside. When she was sure that there was
really someone knocking on the window, she removed the quilt from her body and limped toward the
window.
When she opened the curtain, she saw a shadow outside.
Then a familiar face appeared in front of her.
Her heartbeats suddenly accelerated.
She unlocked the window with trembling fingers and immediately opened it.
The man outside stepped into her room.
"Umm, wait for a moment. I'll just wash my face..." she lowly stated.
Carla avoided the man's eyes. She couldn't dare to look at the man who suddenly arrived, because she
knew that her face was pale and her hair was in a mess!
So she turned and walked towards the bathroom.
The sudden appearance of the man whom she had been missing for almost twenty days caught her off
guard.
If she had known that he would come here, she would have changed into nice clothes, washed her
face and wore makeup while waiting for him.
In reality, her hair was in a mess. She was wearing a plain nightgown and slippers with Peppa Pig's
face all over it.
However, as soon as she walked towards the bathroom, her arm was grabbed by the man.
Then the man pulled her into his arms...
