Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 59

The whole street was filled with police cars, blocking all the exits. Flashing lights and sirens blared in all directions. The minivan was surrounded by police and the kidnappers had no other choice but to get out of their vehicle and surrender themselves.

They hadn't anticipated such a grand scale of police to come so they gave up the fight, coming out of the van with their hands in the air.

The police quickly jumped upon them, restraining them all in handcuffs and led them away.

Carla arrived at the scene and waited anxiously for clearance from the police. Once she got the OK sign she hurried out of the car and ran towards the minivan where Sean was. She waited as the police carried her brother out of the van. Carla was beside herself with worries. She kept repeating her thanks and gratitude to the police, "Thank you! Thank you so much!" The ambulance took over and put Sean gently onto a stretcher so that they could check his vitals. "Don't worry, Miss. I have just checked your brother. He's unconscious but he will be all right."

"Sean!" She couldn't help crying out when she saw her brother's pale face. However, she felt greatly relieved when the paramedic told her that he would be okay.

"Thank you very much. I don't know what to say to express my gratitude. Thank you."

Carla caressed her brother's hair and gently kissed his cheek. 'Thank God, he is okay.'

Terence followed Carla and shook hands with the police commissioner. "Commissioner, thank you, for bringing your whole squad team."

The police commissioner saluted Terence. He replied with only the slightest smile in his eyes, "Mr. Terence, not at all. You are the grandson of our military leader from headquarters and that makes you our leader. Your words are the orders we must answer to. You don't have to be thankful, sir."

Terence nodded at him. As quickly as the squad team had come, they were just as quick to disperse. Once again the street had fallen silent.

Carla followed the ambulance to the hospital.

She waited for the doctors to run a full body check on Sean.

Since the very beginning of the rescue, Terence had stayed by her side the whole time. She didn't have to ask him for help. He voluntarily offered to solve issues that had arisen to allow her to rest.

After a series of tests on Sean, the results had shown that he didn't have any injuries. The doctors simply informed her that Sean was lacking in some vitamins and asked her to get some from the drug store.

Carla could finally rest knowing that Sean was fine. She looked at her dear little brother and breathed a sigh of relief while she held his little hand in hers.

"Terence, I don't know how to thank you. You saved my brother, so you saved me as well." She gazed up at Terence who was standing beside the bed. 'If it wasn't for you, I don't know what would have happened next. I really don't know, ' she murmured in her heart.

Sometimes, God's plans were not for humans to understand. When she had finally put everything behind her, burning the bridge to Terence, wanting to completely disappear from his world, the kidnapping happened. Fate had yet again conspired against her. She had to drop her guard and was compelled to ask for his help.

This somehow brought her deep shame. She lost her shield and her fragile state opened in front of his eyes.

Terence looked at her. Over the past days, she had grown thinner since the whole ordeal had taken a toll on her. He decided to cheer her up and teasingly said to her, "You're welcome, Carla. But, I prefer actions over words. Do you know what I mean?"

A moment ago, he was about to say that taking care of Sean was his responsibility since Sean was going to be his little brother-in-law.

However, he reminded himself how Carla wanted to get away from him. The words stopped short in his mouth. He wanted Carla to continue her gratification towards him so that their relationship might be fixed. Also, he didn't want to become one of her worries at the current moment, as Sean had yet to wake up.

Carla listened and replied quietly, "Okay, fine." A feeling stirred up in her heart at the same time she replied.

Terence only said it in jest. He raised his eyebrows in surprise as he stared at Carla. He wasn't expecting a response like that coming from her, especially since she always kept her integrity.

Suddenly, Carla felt Sean's little finger move inside of her hand. She quickly pressed the buzzer to summon a doctor.

The doctor soon arrived inside the VIP ward. He took out his stethoscope and checked Sean's heart rate and breathing. Shortly afterwards he nodded and turned to Carla and said, "Miss, don't worry. He will soon be awake. He is only ten years old and the dosage of anesthetic injected in him was enough to put down a strong adult male. That's why it may take a little more time for him to regain his consciousness. Other than that, he is all good."

After he finished speaking, he passed the medical report over to Carla and continued, "Miss, I need you to sign at the bottom. If your brother shows any signs of pain or illness, you can find my name and number in the record and contact me anytime."

"Thank you so much doctor. I really appreciated it."

Carla's eyes were filled with gratitude and she nodded her thanks repeatedly to the doctor. She took the pen and paper and signed her name at the bottom. She felt fortunate to have Terence by her side because of his power, many things that were hard in normal life had become suddenly easy.

When she scanned through the record again, something had caught her eye. She furrowed her brows puzzled and asked the doctor, "Excuse me, doctor, why is Sean's blood type AB?"

The doctor simply replied, "Yes, that's the result they got from his blood sample. This kind of analysis is very basic, so the results are very accurate. Did you leave out anything from your brother's health record that we should know about, Miss?"

Carla felt some uneasiness in her heart. She remembered that her blood type was O from when she donated her blood. 'How can Sean's blood type be AB if mine is O? Could the result be wrong?' she thought to herself.
