Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 226 Ask For Help

Theo was sound asleep when he was woken up by Carla's call. It was merely 8 in the morning. He

asked, "Carla? Wait, why do you have my phone number?

So—are you feeling alone? But Terence has only been gone for a month! I'm telling you, even though I

think you are a beautiful girl, I won't betray my friend and—"

Carla interrupted his nonsense chatter. She said anxiously, "Theo, I couldn't get in touch with Terence

since yesterday! Can you help me contact him?"

Theo fell silent.

He was trying to digest what Carla just said.

"What? You couldn't get in touch with Terence? Did you had a fight? Then why did you call me?"

Theo asked. He just assumed that they had a fight and Terence might be mad at her so that he refused

to answer her calls.

"No! Theo, Terence is in NF. How could we have a fight? He hasn't answer my calls since yesterday,

also Rainer's calls. I haven't called Nathan, but I'm afraid the answer might be the same!"

Carla said in a panic voice, "I'm worried that—"

She stopped and took a look at Noah who stood patiently beside her. Then she went into the other

room and whispered, "I'm worried that his brother might hurt him again—"

She didn't want Noah to hear it not because she wary of him, but because it was a family shame in its

nature. How could two brothers hate each other?

It was until now that Theo realized how serious the situation might be.

"Got it. Carla, relax. My father has some friends in NF. They might know something. I'll ask them for

help.

I'll contact you as soon as I have any update.

But you have to take care of yourself first. Don't worry about this too much. You know how tough

Terence is. He had been sent to the military for five years, and he had been trained professionally.

Even if he is in a dangerous situation, he is capable of solving it. You need to trust him!"

Theo started to comfort Carla.

He and Terence had been best friends since they were little. He cared about Terence's safety for sure.

"That's great! Thank you, Theo!" Carla was relieved to say the least. Finally someone would be able to

help locate Terence!

Otherwise, she would be desperate in helplessness.

How she hoped that everything was just a false alarm! A miscommunication! The only thing she wanted

and prayed for was that Terence was safe and sound.

Noah waited for her in the living room. When he saw her out, he filled a cup of water for her and

pointed at the sofa.

"Take a seat. Since you have contacted Theo, I know he will help you. Terence will be fine. You don't

need to worry about him," Noah said reassuringly. Noah had pretty much the idea of what had

happened according to her call.

Carla was in such a hurry that she didn't even drink anything during the whole morning after she woke

up. She took the cup and drank all of it. She didn't realized that she was that thirsty!

"Thank you for your help, Noah! I don't know anyone who could be able to help except you. That's why

I came here abruptly," Carla said sincerely as she held the cup in her hands.

"I'm glad that you trusted me. I'm also happy that I'm able to help. That's what a friend should be. We

help each other and rely on each other, right?" Noah smiled softly and filled her cup again.

"Carla, I can see that you love and care for him deeply."

'Terence has been missing for merely one night, but she is so worried about him. She must have been

to other places this morning looking for help before she came to me, ' Noah thought jealously.

Carla lowered her head, brushed her messy hair away from her face and replied, "I feel so lucky to

have met him. He made me understand how beautiful and exciting life could be. He opened up and

showed a new world to me."

Noah fell silent. Carla looked up at him and found his face filled with frustration. She then added

quickly, "Well—In fact, I think every person I have met in my life means the world to me! For example,

you, Noah, you are such a blessing to me! You have helped me so many times in critical moments. I

really feel grateful that I have a friend like you."

Noah's eyes lit up for a second as he heard her reassuring words. Then he smiled bitterly and shook

his head.

"Don't say that, Carla."

Someday, he was sure of it, in the future she would think exactly the opposite.

Carla didn't argue with him but smiled back. She drank off the water and stood up. "Noah, I have been

taking you so much of your time this morning. Thanks for your help. I must get going now."

Noah nodded, without trying to let her stay. He said, "Carla, if you need any help, you know that you

can come to me. You are always welcome here!"

"I know. Bye Noah!" Carla said thankfully and waved goodbye to him.

After she took her leave, Noah closed the door behind him and got into the room.

His expression turned cold immediately, far from the warm, inviting Noah that Carla saw earlier. He

entered his bedroom, took out a secret burner phone from his bedside table, and dialed a phone

number.

"Mr. Noah! You are really an impatient person to wait for the result!"

It was a strange man's voice on the other end of the line.

Noah lighted up a cigarette and walked towards the window. "Mr. Marcus, you should know that I don't

like playing games. I have done what we agreed. Since we have the same goal, you don't need to hide

anything from me," Noah said coldly.

"Ha-ha. Mr. Noah, you are quite frank, and direct to the point. I like doing business with frank people,

even though I still don't understand why you proposed to cooperate with me in the first place," Marcus

smiled in a vicious tone.

"I paid off some of his staff, and they did something in his plane. Just a few hours ago, the message

came that the plane has crashed already."

"That's all?" This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Noah asked unsatisfactorily, his eyebrows frowned with disappointment.

Marcus smiled again. He replied pleasantly, "Of course not! All the safety equipment in the plane was

replaced into useless things. Moreover, I hired a group of mercenary to search a few kilometers around

the crash site. They didn't find anyone alive. I can guarantee you that Terence didn't stand a chance to

survive this time!"

He would never let Terence alive!

As long as Terence was alive, it was impossible for him to have his victory.

Noah and he happened to have the same view regarding their own situation.

Both of them cared not a bit about brotherhood. If brotherhood really mattered, the executive power of

the An family should be bestowed to him, the eldest son!

But now, people only knew Terence, the heir of the An family. Who knew him? What about him?

"Mr. Marcus, I hope what you said is true. Don't let him return back home anymore. Bye." Noah ended

the phone furiously and threw it on the window. He took a drag on his cigarette and stared outside at

the dark, rainy sky.

'Terence, you could have lived a happy life with my sister. But you spoiled the chance and chose the

girl I want.

Then don't blame me for this!

Whoever messes up with me will have to pay the cost! No matter what!

I will get whatever I want.

Nobody can stop me from getting everything!' Noah thought.
