Chapter 280 I'm Not Your Ex-boyfriend!
The man who suddenly kissed Carla was none other than Terence!
"Shh, don't yell. There's nobody in the restroom," Terence said.
Then he lifted Carla to his chest and then walked into the restroom.
There were usually a few people in that floor but he had arranged for Phyllis deliberately to tell the
people that the restroom on that floor was under maintenance so that Terence could make sure that no
one would bother him and Carla.
Carla refused him, "Thank you. But I don't need your help. Put me down, please. I can do this myself."
Carla calmed down gradually then she attempted to push his hands away from her. However, her
actions were ignored by the man.
He opened one of the doors then he placed her back down. Then he held her waist with both his hands
to help her stand stably.
Then he asked her, "Do you want to take your pants off yourself or do you want me to help you?"
His bold action made Carla a little embarrassed. In such a narrow space, she could only say, "Could
you please go out first? I can take them off myself."
When she was finished with her words, Terence began undoing the buttons on her pants. She
immediately tried to stop him but failed. He pushed her hand that was stopping him away.
"Carla, I'm not your ex-boyfriend! You are still my girlfriend before the accident," he said in a low voice.
He didn't stop from helping her unbutton her pants and continued, "Our relationship allows us to do
something more intimate than just helping you unbutton your pants!"
Terence said with a frown, "I originally wanted to wait for you until you remember me and our love
yourself but I can't wait any longer!"
Then he kissed her pink lips and continued to say, "Listen to me. Noah is the culprit of your car
accident. Don't be deceived by him.
Your younger brother Sean and I are waiting for you in JA City this whole time. I hope you will come
back to us immediately after finding your family!"
Carla was shocked when she heard his words. What he said was too much for her to process so she
became stunned for a while. Even if this man was hugging her and even kissed her, she didn't have the
courage to refuse him. She just wanted to hear more about her identity before the accident.
"Carla, you are my woman. As long as I'm still here, I won't let any other man have you," Terence said
in a hoarse voice. He gently touched her injured head. Then he remembered what her attending
physician said. The doctor reassured Terence that she would recover soon.
Three or four days had already passed since she got into an accident and he realized that he was
beginning to be anxious and impatient.
She just hurt her head and it led to a temporary blank memory and confused consciousness. It could
not be counted as amnesia.
He needed to be more patient. He should give her some more time to remember her past.
"... Terence?" Carla called his name. When she looked at his face, a lot of memory fragments suddenly
appeared in her mind. However, she could not put them all together.
"Yes, I'm Terence. Carla... Please remember that in this world the only man who will really love you
completely is me—Terence An!"
Terence stared at her warmly while finishing his words. Then he stepped back from the narrow space
and closed the door for her.
When Carla got out from the stall, she found that her crutch was placed within her reach.
She walked out of the restroom wanting to continue her talk with Terence but as soon as she got out,
she saw Noah was waiting for her.
"Carla, are you all right?"
Noah had been waiting for Carla for a long time and he got worried that something wrong might have
happened to her, so he decided to come to the women's restroom and wait for her outside. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Carla shook her head and gave up her desire of continuing her talk with Terence.
"Noah, I'm all right," she answered him.
Noah helped her back to her seat.
There was some confusion in Carla's heart. She didn't know whether Terence's words were true or not.
She actually didn't see any deception in his eyes just then.
She just saw a strong, obvious, undisguised fervent love in his eyes. She could also feel that he really
did love her very much.
She could feel that his love was without any adulteration and hiding.
That was totally different from what she could feel from Noah.
She didn't know whether Noah liked her or not. However, she was sure that Noah was hiding a lot of
things from her. She was guessing that there was something that Noah was deliberately hiding from
her in particular.
Noah saw that Carla was not eating too much and it was quite different from her usual good appetite.
Noah felt a little strange and decided to ask her, "Why are you always absent-minded? Are you still
thinking about Phyllis?
Carla, I'm not as bad as you think. I promise you that I will be self-conscious starting from tonight. I
won't be touching any other woman when I'm with you. Are we good now? Are you feeling better?"
Noah promised while placing down his chopsticks on the table. Actually, their dinner had already lasted
for a long time. Since they both had no appetite, he decided to just give up on the food.
Carla was still feeling a bit confused. When she heard Noah's words, she was slightly stunned. She
told him, "Noah, you don't need to change yourself for me."
She looked down and added, "If you don't like me, you don't need to force yourself..."
Shocked by her words, Noah suddenly pulled her hand to his heart and said, "Carla, feel this. Can you
feel that my heartbeat is accelerating?
If I don't like you, do you think my heart will beat so fast?" Noah asked.
Carla's palm could clearly feel his accelerating heartbeat. It also made her palm tremble.
"Let's go. It's already getting late. We should go back to the hospital now or else the nurse will call us to
make us return," Noah said after a while. He released her hand and helped her put on her coat. Then
he lifted her to his chest and walked towards the elevator.
When they got in the car, Noah gently embraced her shoulder with one arm and said, "You should
sleep. I'll wake you when we arrive at the hospital."
Carla rarely opened her mouth on the way back to the hospital because she was still thinking about
what Terence and Noah said. She was trying to make a correct judgment of both of them herself.
After a while, they finally arrived at the hospital.
Noah didn't let the nurse in but instead, he took care of her personally. He sat down only after she was
done with all her preparation for bedtime.
"Noah, are you not going home tonight?"
While lying on the bed, Carla looked at Noah and asked him in a low voice.
"I won't go home tonight. I have nothing to do tomorrow so I'll stay here instead to accompany you,"
Noah said. Then he took her hand and held it gently, "Close your eyes and sleep, Carla."
Carla nodded and closed her eyes slowly.
Noah stared at her and sighed. He was feeling that Carla, the one who belonged to him now, was
gradually disappearing in front of him.
He didn't expect that her injury would recover so soon. His happiness did not last a long time. He
couldn't even enjoy it properly but its end was fast approaching.
While looking back on his whole life, he thought that the days when her heart belonged to him might be
the happiest in his entire life.
That was why he wanted to cherish the rest time of being together with her before she completely
regained her memory. He didn't want to miss even a second of when her heart beat for him.
Carla fell asleep in the middle of the night. A feeling of soreness and numbness in her leg was
beginning to wake her up. However, she felt that someone suddenly started kneading it softly and it
made the feeling of soreness disappear.
She lightly opened her eyes and saw Noah. He was only wearing a shirt and kneading her leg in
concentration.
Although she was still half asleep, she could still feel his touch.
Her leg was not very comfortable so her sleep was always being disturbed. When she woke up at
dawn, she found that he was still kneading her feet.
The past few days, her injured leg was getting a little swollen. The attending physician said that she
should take more leg exercise.
"Noah..." Carla called him. She pulled his hand away from her to let him rest. Then she leaned on his
shoulder and said, "You should sleep too."
"I'm not sleepy. You should sleep some more," Noah answered her. Then he hugged her shoulder and
helped her adjust the blanket.
"No, you should sleep," Carla said while staring at him with sleepy eyes.
When he saw her sleepy and cute appearance, Noah smiled and kissed her forehead gently, "Okay, I'll
sleep. Let's sleep together."
When the next day came, Carla touched the other side of the bed and found that Noah was not here.
She opened her eyes in shock.
What...What happened?!
