Love is the Sunshine

Terence let Bonnie leave deliberately, because he didn't want her to be there at that moment. Otherwise, she would have sensed the close relationship that Terence and Carla shared between each other. And in the future she might seek revenge upon Carla.

Terence wasn't concerned about getting into trouble. He was worried for Carla, not wanting her to be in any danger.

After he carefully and thoroughly wiped the chili oil from Carla's hand, he raised his head to look at Carla's face.

There was a red cross drawn across Carla's flushed cheek. Terence smiled inwardly as he studied her face. She looked so sweet with her furrowed brows and flushed cheeks. And the red lipstick mark only made her look even more adorable. In Terence's eyes, she was lovely no matter what.

"Carla, now I am beginning to think that the chili is very becoming on you..."

Terence said affectionately. Carla reminded him of a little red hot chili pepper at the moment. She was indignant and so her face became red.

Carla looked up at him with sincerity in her eyes. She was surprised to see that Terence had stepped in and openly took action to care about her after tactfully asking his friends to take his fiancee away, which was a clever thing to do.

He wisely managed to avoid an ugly situation between Bonnie and Carla. Otherwise, Bonnie would never have let Carla off easily.

What was worse, if it had escalated then Terence would really have been in a dilemma.

Besides, Bonnie was after all his fiancee, so if he defended Carla in front of Bonnie, then people would make unkind remarks and accuse him of being a playboy.

However, the situation was different now.

Since Bonnie was no longer there, no matter what happened between them she wouldn't be a witness to it.

When Terence released Carla's hand, Carla remembered the lipstick mark on her face and was about to reach up to wipe it off.

"You won't be able to wipe it off. Your skin will just get irritated if you try to wipe it. I've figured out an easier way to remove it,"

Terence said in a low voice grasping Carla's hand before she raised it to her face.

"He's right! Carla, I have the makeup remover. You can use it to wipe the lipstick from your face. It's very useful."

Mrs. Xu took the bottle of makeup remover from her bag and held it out to Carla.

But before Carla got the chance to take it, Terence took it from Mrs. Xu first.

"Thank you."

Terence then took Carla's hand and led her to the bathroom.
