Chapter 386 All Things Finished (Part Two)
I would like to know about it if the topic is about me. Can't you just talk freely in front of me?"
Terence stared at her, checking if she had really calmed down. After thinking for a while, he sat back
next to her and turned to Nathan before saying, "Go ahead, Nathan."
"Yes, Mr. Terence.
I have just received some news from HA City. Noah has already made a rigorous plan for himself. On
the surface, he seems not to do anything to protect his profits in the Hua Group. But in reality, he has
already begun to secretly divert the assets of the Hua Group into his own pocket. With how I'm seeing
it..." Nathan paused for a while and then looked at Carla and Terence. Finding them both calm, he
continued, "I think he is going to start up his own company in the days to come and leave the Hua
Group practically worthless."
Nathan's face grew serious while he was talking about the Hua Group's future problem.
However, the news didn't surprise Carla at all as she remained still, back resting against the
headboard. She let out a long bitter sigh and said, "I've been expecting this to happen. Noah is a sharp
and competent man. He had grown accustomed to controlling the Hua Group, so I knew that he
wouldn't be okay bowing down to others. I can understand how he feels but his actions are crazy."
It was obvious to Noah that Carla would marry Terence if she didn't marry him. If that were the case,
Carla would gain support from both the An family and the Hua family. And if Noah still stayed at the
Hua family, his control in the family would definitely be weakened. Moreover, the biggest shareholder of
the Hua Group would also be Carla then. That was to say, all his efforts and hard work in the past
would go down the drain.
Noah was a cunning person, and as such, Carla could assume that he had already anticipated all these
things.
If Noah was willing to give up what he had earned in the past years in the Hua family, then Carla would
say that she didn't know him at all.
Terence held Carla's hand tightly and smiled. He then said, "Take it easy. I know that you have long
expected this but also keep in mind that I am your man. I will never let you down. I've already made
some arrangements to deal with him. Let's wait to see what he is going to face in the coming days."
Carla nodded but didn't reply. Although she didn't have any emotional attachments with the Hua Group,
she cared a lot for Allen and Andrea.
Those two gave their entire lives for the Hua Group. If Noah really diverted all assets to himself, then
Carla would feel very sorry for the Hua couple. After all, she was still under the impression that
everything was her fault.
Carla stayed in the Seaview Villa for the next few days.
She hardly relaxed when she was in HA City. Thus, she didn't want to bother herself with all the current
disturbing matters going around her.
She just wanted to spend her time quietly and simply, appreciating the beautiful scenery near the villa
and sometimes even getting lost in her thoughts. She also made sure to eat all sorts of nutritious food.
The food she ate was certainly the best. Plus, Terence also made sure that her favorite fruits and
desserts would be delivered to her every day. The people in their kitchen would prepare whatever she
wished to eat.
In addition to that, Terence's aunt had promised to come home from abroad soon. With her help, the
food would be even more exquisite and delicious.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
After having been cared for, Carla found that her morning sickness was slowly getting better with each
passing day.
"Miss Carla...Oh no! Mrs. Carla. I'm so sorry. Mr. Terence already asked us to change the way we call
you but I always forget." Sophie walked closer to her and asked with a big smile, "What do you want for
lunch?"
Raising her head to look at Sophie, Carla smiled back and said, "Umm, I'm also not used to hearing
that honorific, let alone you using it to call me. Plus, we haven't got married yet, so isn't it still too early
to call me that? Just address me as you did before, Sophie. Or just call me by my name."
"Miss Carla, Mr. Terence said that the marriage certificate is just a paper but in his heart, he has long
considered you as his wife. In reality, there are many men who get married without even having their
wives in their hearts at all. How could they compare with our Mr. Terence?"
As a matter of fact, Sophie wasn't boasting about Terence. It was just that she had never seen a man
like him before. Terence's sense of responsibility was just amazingly high.
Carla realized that she was praising Terence again, so she smiled wide at the woman. She then
pretended to cough and strategically brought the topic back to their lunch. "Just tell the people in the
kitchen to prepare a simple lunch, Sophie. I don't know what to eat now."
Talking about Terence always gave Sophie a sense of pride. It was as if he were her own son.
Sophie said to Carla, "That's fine. I will just ask them to prepare whatever you would like to eat. If you
come up with something you want to eat, let me know and I will prepare it for you."
Right after she finished her words, Sophie turned around and walked to the elevator.
Carla found comfort in watching the scenery from the third floor. Thus, she stood up from the sofa while
sipping her cup of tea.
She then walked to her drawing board.
She was about to sit down before her drawing board when the elevator inside her room opened again.
Carla had no doubt that it was Terence. After all, he had been coming home several times a day now.
Thus, it was not difficult for Carla to guess who it was.
