Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 423

Upon seeing that he had left the room, Carla smiled faintly. She picked up a pen and started listing relatives who should be invited to the wedding.

After her parents passed away, she had barely visited those relatives. But since this marriage ceremony was just once in her lifetime, she thought that it was proper to invite them to the party to celebrate with her.

She even planned to invite all the relatives whose names she could remember.

Uncles, aunts, cousins, and even grandparents.

But she wanted to make sure that her relatives must not sit at the same table with the Hua family. They never knew her real identity. More importantly, she didn't want Sean to know.

So she must be cautious about it.

After Terence came out, he saw that Carla was writing her list while she still wore the face mask.

He walked to her and tore that sheet of paper away from her hands. He lifted her up in his arms and carried her towards the bathroom.

Carla ripped off the mask away from face and glared at him with full of hostility.

"What the hell are you doing? I'm almost finished!" She shouted at him.

Terence only snorted and replied, "I'm giving you one minute to wash your face. If you are late, don't expect me to show any mercy in bed tonight. And I'm afraid that you won't be able to get out of bed tomorrow morning."

"What the hell, Terence? Ugh. Alright already! Just give me a second!" Carla kept herself busy with the list and it slipped out of her mind that she was supposed to spend some time with Terence. After she had washed and dried her face, she finally walked out of the bathroom.

The moment she stepped into the bedroom, she felt as if a strong hurricane had enveloped her.

Terence filled her with kisses as he drowned into the intense fires of his burning passion and love for her.

Carla smiled bitterly and thought that she should satisfy this wild man more often. Otherwise, she would end up being sore in bed.

As their bodies swayed together during the kisses, they found themselves lying in bed. Both of them gasped for air.

Even if Terence tried to be tender and soft to her, her body was still sore.

Then she turned to look at Terence who was lying on top of her and softly whispered, "Terence?"

"Yes?" Terence replied. Then he threw his arms around her and gave her a peck on her lips. "I'm sorry, Carla, I should have gone easy on you. But I just couldn't help it. You're so beautiful."

"I'm fine, Terence. There's something I wanted to tell you though." Carla stroked his soft hair and continued, "My mom wants me to go home to the Hua family.

And I think it's best for me to go home and prepare for our wedding too. What do you think?"

Upon hearing what she had said, Terence's eyebrows furrowed deeply. "You're going to go back home? To the Hua family?"

"Of course. Otherwise, how can you pick me up from my home on our wedding day?" Carla replied, nodding her head.

Terence only went silent and tightened his grip around her shoulder.

Then he opened his mouth after a short pause, "I know that but I don't want to be apart from you even for a single second."

Carla laughed amused at him and stroked his handsome face with her soft hands.

"Don't worry. After we get married, we'll have plenty of time to be with each other. I'm just afraid you might get bored once you have to see the same old silly face every single day for the rest of your life.

What's wrong with letting you miss me for a few days?"

Terence looked deeply into her eyes and held her wrist. "Carla, you know that our time on Earth is limited. I want to be with you every chance I get. I don't want to regret it in the future.

We don't exactly know what will happen the next second. There is no guarantee that we will lead a long life and everything will be smooth sailing after we get married.

Every moment with you is precious and invaluable, so I want to seize every chance to be with you."

Carla felt a pang of sorrow in her chest and gently pinched his cheek, "What's wrong, love? Why did you suddenly say something like that? That's really sweet of you, you know. How could I not know that you are such a big romantic from the inside?"

"What I said aren't just empty words. I really meant them. I learned it from my grandfather. When he underwent the operation, he would always talk about those things and feel there wasn't much time left for him in the world." Terence tightly held her hands and kissed them.

He reminisced the time before his grandfather's operation. It was true no one knew what would happen the next second.

His grandfather taught him a lot of things during that time and he would never forget those teachings for the rest of his life.

That night, the couple realized that they couldn't fall asleep.

The next morning, Carla thought that Terence had allowed her to go back home that day.

Andrea said as she mentally counted the days in her mind. She didn't think about this before since they didn't have many chances to gather together at home like that.

After all, they were all adopted by Andrea a long time ago, so there might be some slight differences in their birth dates.

"Oh really, Mom? I'm so happy to have a little brother!" Carla exclaimed, clapping her hands. She raised her glass and clinked it with Tristan's.

"Sister, I've heard that you also have a little brother aside from me. Can you introduce me to him?" Tristan asked.

Tristan had a light, delicate face complemented by his bushy eyebrows and thick eyelashes. His golden curly hair complemented his handsome face very well. He might as well pass off as a doll.

It was no wonder on how he kept attracting girls' attention. Andrea once complained to Carla that Tristan would always be hanging out with girls and barely went home.

"Of course. His name is Sean and he's eleven years old. I'll introduce him to you guys when the time is right!" Carla replied as she smiled.

"Why the long wait? You're going to get married next week, aren't you? I think it's the perfect time for us to meet him. What do you think, mom?" Tristan asked, turning to Andrea.

Andrea nodded in agreement. "Callie, I've been meaning to tell you about it. Ever since your parents passed away, no one could take care of Sean. Why not bring him here? I'll look after him. We're a big family and your mother is really good with children!

Callie, rest assured that I will treat him like my own son and make him feel at home."

Carla slightly shook her head as her eyes went downcast, "Mom, I really appreciate the thought. When the time is right, I'll tell him about it. But for now, I don't want him to know about it yet. He's still too young to have this kind of pressure."

Sean had always thought that Carla was his biological sister. Even though he had grown older, she was still afraid that it would be a hard pill for him to swallow.

If he found out that she had another family with her biological parents, with a lot of brothers and sisters, he would get heartbroken and feel lonely.

She couldn't bear to put to him in that position and make him suffer.

"Callie, you're right. He's still too young." Then Andrea turned to Tristan, "And you, Tristan, should behave yourself and watch your mouth during the wedding." She was totally understanding of Callie's worries.

After all, he was only eleven years old. Family meant a lot to him as a little child. He might be crushed if he found out about it.

As they were enjoying their little chit-chat, the sound of footsteps coming from outside suddenly caught their attention.

When Tristan laid his eyes on the man in the doorway, he waved and shouted, "Big brother, you're finally back!"
