Love is the Sunshine

Sherry touched her pale face with a slight grimace. "I'm going to the bathroom."

Carla watched Sherry leave and sensed that something was wrong judging by the look on her face. She glanced at Noah who was casually pouring a cup of water for her brother and passed it to him.

"Mr. Noah, what's wrong with Sherry? Did you two argue?"

The waiter carrying two plates of food approached and placed them on the table.

"You don't need to call me Mr. Noah. Just call me Noah. My full name is Noah Hua. But my friends just call me Noah," he said quietly.

Carla was startled for a brief second. She thought that he would never tell her the truth.

"I'm sorry. But I don't usually like to tell people my full name when I just meet them because I don't want any unnecessary trouble. But we are friends now. If I didn't tell you my full name now, then it would appear that I was an insincere person."

Noah smiled amiably and pushed the plate of food on the table closer to Sean.

Sean was so hungry, and his mind was only on the food in front of him. He wasn't paying much attention to their conversation. He picked up the chopsticks and began devouring the food.

"You don't need to explain. I fully understand. It's very acceptable for people of your social status to feel that way," Carla said with a smile. She didn't expect that he would be so candid with her.

A long time had passed when Sherry had finally returned.

She sat at the table with her eyes downcast.

Sherry was feeling frustrated. She went to the bathroom to save herself from creating an embarrassing scene. She had barely entered the bathroom when she burst into tears. It took her a while to finally calm down and although she put a thick layer of face powder on, it was still obvious that she had been crying.

Sherry became quiet and focused on eating, barely saying a word.

After dinner, Carla suggested that Noah and Sherry go together, while she and her brother catch a taxi home.

However, Noah insisted on taking them all home himself. Carla and Sean first and then dropping Sherry off on his way back to the hotel.

Carla didn't refuse since it was safer to have so many people together.

When Noah had dropped Carla and Sean off, he turned to Sherry and asked, "Where do you want to go?"

Sherry shifted uncomfortably in the front passenger seat.

She kept her gaze straight ahead and said stiffly, "Go to the hotel."

Noah paused while looking at her for a moment and then turned the car into the direction of the hotel.
