Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 330 The Plan Failed

Although Carla had tried to convince him strenuously on the phone, Terence posed only one word as

his reply.

"No."

Terence denied Carla's plan at the very outset.

"Why? I had specially chosen a new house near the school for Sean's convenience. And the education

quality of this private school is excellent too. I just want Sean to be able to live with me!"

Carla said with a frown. She didn't expect Terence to refuse her proposal. She was crestfallen.

She knew that her plan would fail miserably if Sean wouldn't live with her.

"Carla, are you going to live in HA City for your entire lifetime? Is that your ingenious plan?" Terence

asked, mockingly.

He knew she had planned cautiously, but he firmly believed that it wasn't the right thing for her to do at

the moment.

"... No, I won't live here forever. But I will live here for at least another two years with regard to the

current situation," Carla answered after thinking for a while, with much hesitation.

As she had planned earlier, she would go to work in Hua Group as soon as her leg recovered fully. And

once she began to work in Hua Group, she would logically have to stay in HA City for a significant

period of time.

"Okay, that's what I wanted to hear. Now that you've agreed that you won't be staying in HA City for a

long time, I think it's unnecessary to force Sean to change his school once again," Terence stated

plainly.

He swayed his office chair around and continued on the phone, "You just need to stay there for

perhaps another two years. I think it will be better for all of us and Sean if you won't let him change his

school again. He has changed his school twice as a primary student. Do you think it's appropriate for

him to switch schools yet again? He will further take a lot of time to adapt to the new surroundings. It

might adversely affect his education in the long run."

After hearing his words, Carla was out of words. She kept biting her lips reflexively.

There were two reasons for her desire to move away from the Hua family without any hesitation. Firstly,

she wanted more freedom. Secondly, she was eager to make Sean move into HA City and live with

her.

However, after talking with Terence, she came to the conclusion that his words were perfectly

reasonable.

She did usually talk to Sean on the phone after having moved to HA City. She always heard Sean talk

about his friends in the school happily. If she was to make Sean move to HA City suddenly, she was

worried that Sean would have to adapt to the new environment again.

"Okay, let's change the topic of discussion. Where is your new house? Send your address to me. When

I finish my work, I can come to sleep...oh no... I mean, accompany you," Terence said with a snicker.

Carla couldn't help but burst into laughter when she heard him make a slip of tongue. She said, "Thank

you. But I don't care whether you come here or not. I just want you to arrange for Nathan or Rainer to

send Sean here. I miss him so very much."

"You just miss him? Don't you miss me?"

Terence asked jealously. They hadn't seen each other for such a long time. She stayed in the Hua

family every day and hadn't permitted him to meet her. It was even extremely rare for them to talk on

the phone, but she still said she only wanted to see her brother! Considering all that in his mind,

Terence really felt he was being treated unfairly.

"No, I don't miss you. Why should I miss you? You only want to satisfy your own lust whenever you see

me," Carla deliberately said, raising her brows. She sat on the swing in the yard, holding the swing in

one hand and swinging leisurely.

"......"

Terence immediately darkened his face. He thought, 'Does she mean that I only want to make love with

her but don't actually love her?' Then he emboldened his voice and said on the phone, "Okay, I promise

I won't touch you when I come to see you this time."

Then he adjusted his office chair and said bluntly, "It's inappropriate for Sean to see you tonight

because he still needs to go to school tomorrow. I'll let him come to see you during this weekend.

Is there anything that you need? I'll bring it to you."

Carla thought for a while about all her current needs. She finally arrived at the thought of one specific

thing.

"Can you take several sets of nightgowns which have been kept in my wardrobe and bring them to me?

I still think the nightgowns which you prepared for me are much more comfortable to wear than the

ones I've here. I just can't get accustomed to wearing the nightgowns I own here."

Carla also couldn't figure out why she always felt uncomfortable when wearing the nightgowns she had

here. Maybe her skin had become fastidious while living with Terence.

"Okay. Anything else?"

Terence asked while smiling. He thought, 'This woman is really clever.' In fact, when Carla lived in

Seaview Villa, the nightgowns Terence prepared for her were all made from the best materials and

customized in a private studio according to her size. And these nightgowns were several times better

than those ready-made clothes produced in a factory.

Besides, the daily clothes Terence prepared for Carla were all personally customized. And the

nightgowns always stood right next to the skin when wearing, so Terence had paid more attention to

their details.

However, Terence never told Carla all these things, so it was reasonable that she couldn't figure out

why the nightgowns in Seaview Villa were more comfortable to wear.

"No, I just can think of my nightgowns. You can bring some other things to me if you wish so," Carla

said. Carla gave Terence the right and probably an invitation to bring anything to her. It hadn't been

long since she had moved to this house, so there was ample space to store things.

"Okay, see you tonight," Terence said lovingly.

As soon as Terence hung up the phone, he heard someone knocking on his door.

"Mr. Terence, Miss Amanda is here..."

Rainer informed him loudly.

Terence closed his eyes, took a breath fretfully, and then leaned on the back of the chair. In fact,

Amanda had been coming to Terence's office every day in the recent past.

And Amanda also said she intended to let Terence get accustomed to her existence gradually and

made Terence agree to see her as a daily habit. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

"Terence?"

Amanda walked into Terence's office. When she saw Terence was here, she immediately ran towards

him and said, "I know you are here. Rainer still lied to me and said that you've gone out! He let me in

finally as I insisted."

Amanda was afraid that others would misunderstand that she fell in love with her own biological uncle,

so she decided not to call him 'Uncle" anymore and chose to call him "Terence".

Terence impatiently glanced at Amanda who was running toward him like an innocent child. She either

hadn't understood his uneasiness or she was pretending not to.

"Hello, my dear niece," he greeted her gently. He swung on the chair and lowered his arm.

Amanda stopped and looked at him with unhappy eyes. She complained, "Terence, don't call me niece.

My grandpa has informed me that we'll be getting married by the end of this year. We'll be wife and

husband soon."

After hearing her words, Terence burst into laughter. He then looked at her as if she were a three-year-

old child.

"Amanda, I have a question for you. If you have decided to do one thing, will your parents and grandpa

be able to change your mind?"

Amanda thought for a while, and then shook her head.

"No. If I really want to do something, no one can change my mind."

Terence nodded his head and raised his brows. "So your parents still can't control your mind despite

you being just a young girl. I'm a man of about thirty years old. Do you think they can change my

decision?"

Amanda didn't answer Terence, so he continued, "Amanda, I can tell you clearly. In my eyes, you are

always a child. I can only treat you as my loving niece. Our elders cannot decide my partner. If I marry

you, I'll feel like I'm committing incest. Do you understand me?"

Amanda thought Terence had taken this thing too seriously, so she subconsciously shook her head.

"Uncle Terence, don't say that. I am not related to you by blood. You can't describe our plausible

marriage in that manner..."

"But I just feel like that. And that will definitely make me uncomfortable for an entire lifetime. Just like

you always call me Uncle Terence reflexively without giving much thought to it, I too have always held

in my mind that you are just my niece. Our relationship can't be changed! We are just uncle and niece!"

Terence claimed firmly. He wasn't willing for any negotiation on this regard.

Then, he stood up and shut the pile of documents that were kept open on the table.

"Amanda, the elders' wishes and demands can't control me. I'll only become increasingly hateful of

you. You know I like you as my sweet niece. And you also know I'm not a man who will give up my

decisions easily.

As your uncle, I hope you can bless me. Bless me that I can marry your Aunt Carla as soon as

possible. When I get married to your Aunt Carla, I definitely won't hate you anymore."

After finishing his words, Terence took his coat and walked out of his office. He didn't want to waste his

time with a little girl any longer and continue creating any more confusion.

It was better to go home and prepare the things he needed to take to Carla than waste his time here

with his niece.

Dusk hadn't yet arrived. He was glad he could go to accompany Carla earlier today! The thought of it

instantly brought a beaming smile to his face.
