Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 556 Carla, How About Getting A Room Tonight (Part One)

The glass William was holding in his hand fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.

This caused the smile on Violet's face to become frigid in an instant as well.

As Theo sat next to Violet, he couldn't help but look back and forth between her and William in

confusion. For a moment there, he was a bit baffled as to why the two of them would be reacting the

way they did. But after a while, he thought that their relationship might not have been as simple as he

thought it was. When he came to that sudden realization, he quickly sprung up from his seat.

"Umm... William, it's just that there was no other place for me to sit down, so I took the one beside her.

Believe me. I've only been here for a moment!"

Theo tried to clear things up as he walked farther away from Violet to avoid conflict.

"Violet..."

Carla called out to her, sounding a bit anxious. The truth was that she was also unaware that William

frequented this place at all.

Putting down his glass on the table, Terence grabbed Carla's hand and proceeded to stand up as well.

"Carla, would you like to go for a walk with me?"

In just a second, Terence pulled her away from the table before she could even give him an answer.

As they walked away, Carla's gaze was glued to Violet, feeling quite worried.

That being said, Violet still stared at the man standing in front of her in astonishment, so she failed to

notice that the people around her had already left one by one.

"It's been so long... Mr. William..."Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Violet greeted him when she finally came to her senses. At that moment, she held back what she

actually felt inside, and tried to put on a relaxed smile as best as she could.

William kept staring at Violet whom he had not seen for five long years as he walked closer to her in

excitement. Then, he stretched out his hands and wrapped his arms around her and told her, "Violet,

what took you so long to come back?

Do you have any idea how much older I've become as I waited for you?"

Even before, William was already much older than Violet. Now that five years had passed, even though

his appearance wasn't really showing any obvious signs of him getting older, he could clearly feel that

his heart had truly grown a lot during these five years.

"Oh? That reminds me. You're thirty-nine years old this year. That means you're about to turn forty,

right?"

Violet deliberately messed around with him, thinking that he was twelve years older than she was.

Actually, Violet was the same age as Carla, so right now, she was only twenty-eight years old.

With that in mind, she considered herself as still relatively young compared to William.

"I think it's already a bit too late for you to be bothered about how old I am. After all, when we first met,

you already knew that I was much older than you, isn't that right? So, age shouldn't be problem

whatsoever," William refuted as he held her tightly in his loving arms.

He had no choice but to accept the fact that, no matter who he was, time and tide waited for no man.

Apart from that, the older he became as the years went by, the more he longed for his former lover—

Violet.

"Oh? Mr. William, now that you understand you are much older, shouldn't you have also realized that

an old man isn't supposed to be acting so unseemly? So, please get your hands off me! Let me go!"

Violet blurted out as she tried to push him away, only to find out that she didn't have the strength to go

against a man.

She was actually well aware of that. William was fit as a fiddle, so her strength could be likened to a

mere drop in the ocean compared to his.

"Violet, please forgive me! My lust for power really got the better of me back then. It was only when you

left me that I finally realized how much you truly meant to me. But, I did my best to change for the

better and never made sure not to make that same mistake again...

After all these years, I never married that woman! I'm still single even now! I have been eagerly waiting

for you to come back these past five years!"

William didn't have it in him to set her free. Truth be told, he was nowhere short of women, but he had

always been missing and longing for Violet and their child.

Whenever he thought of Violet living a different life with their child—despite not knowing where they

could be at that moment—he would still feel somewhat at ease knowing they already had a home of

their own.

"Mr. William, whether you are single or not doesn't mean a thing to me! It's none of my business! I'm

quite contented with the life that I have right now. And let's say that I do want to fall in love at some

point, I wouldn't be interested in looking for someone who is old enough to be my uncle!" said Violet.

After telling him that, she struggled to push the man away from her. She grabbed the two bottles of

liquor which were supposed to be given to Carla. Then, she turned around, intending to take her leave.

"Wait just a second! Aren't you looking for someone to drink with? I'd like to keep you company!"

William quickly grabbed a hold of Violet's hand, stopping her in her tracks and pulling her to sit back

down. Then, he promptly took the two bottles of liquor in her hands and put them back on the table.

William proposed, "How about we play a game? I'll down three glasses and you're free to drink anytime

you like. And for every three glasses I drink, you'll let me say one sentence to you. Deal?"

Violet had no choice but to take a seat on the sofa when William forced her to do so.

"Mr. William, I think that a man at your age shouldn't be forcing himself to drink a lot!"

Disregarding her sarcastic remarks, William sat down as well. Then, as he said, he immediately poured

three glasses of liquor and drank them without a bit of hesitation.

Meanwhile, Terence decided to take Carla out of the Phoenix Club.

As for Theo, knowing that there was no longer a chance for them brothers to have a decent chat

together, he opted to just head straight back home for the night.

In that beautiful moonlit evening, Terence and Carla went for a stroll, walking hand-in-hand on the

street.

"Terence, I would like to visit BT Village," Carla suddenly blurted out.

It had already been a number of days since she came back. For that reason, she thought that it should

be about time for her to pay them a visit now that she had already settled down.
