Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 404 Talking About The Marriage With His Future Mother-In-Law (Part Two)

Everything was of a different range now since Carla was destined to be a part of An family. More so,

she was about to become the future female master of the family as well. Regardless of what Carla

learned before, Andrea still felt responsible to educate her about the basic rules of such a household.

After dinner, Andrea and Terence went to the living room and talked about a lot of things related to the

wedding.

Carla on the other hand, was enjoying her after-dinner fruit while sitting next to them. Both the Hua

family and the An family were distinguished and well-known, so there were a lot of rules and protocols

to consider when holding a wedding. Carla didn't know anything about this, so she decided not to

participate.

In her mind, a wedding was nothing but a small party held within the family. Although there were still

rules to follow, they were just not that important to her. Her main idea about the ceremony was a

honeymoon after the banquet and that was all.

It was rather complicated to hold a wedding ceremony in JA City. Besides, the An family had its own

special rules. The difficulties multiplied after the two kinds of rules combined. Thus, it was quite

understandable to see the puzzled expression on Carla's face as she was listening to them.

Also, there was an unwritten rule in the An family that once the two got married, they couldn't get

divorced easily unless something serious happened.

Such a rule must be strictly observed in the An family, while their collateral relatives had the freedom to

choose whether to observe it or not.

Carla finally understood why Terence's father hadn't had the willingness to get married when he was

young. Only after Terence's mother bore two children for him and he got bored with the high life of

drinking and sleeping around that he finally married her.

Suddenly, an idea popped into Carla's mind after listening to them for so long. She thought, 'Why am I

in a hurry to marry Terence? Why not delay it for a while as we try to reconsider everything?'

She was in the middle of these thoughts when she remembered that Terence once said that she

wouldn't be just idling at home even after marrying him.

It was already midnight when the talk between Terence and Andrea ended. They then went back to

Carla's room.

"What's wrong? Is there something bothering you, Carla?"

Terence asked while walking out of the shower. He wasn't wearing anything but a towel around his

waist. Drying his hair with another towel, he walked to Carla's bed and sat. She seemed to be deep in

thought.

Noticing that Terence was beside her, Carla sat cross-legged and pulled him closer.

She then said with a serious look, "I think that we have to postpone our wedding, Terence. What do you

think?"

"No way!" Terence immediately frowned and answered. "I have already discussed everything with your

mother and we decided to hold the wedding at the beginning of spring. We only have a month to

prepare but that should be enough."

"Terence, don't you think that we are deciding on this too fast? I think we have to talk about this further. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

You are just twenty-nine and I'm only twenty-four years old. We are both so young. Why are we in such

a hurry to get married?" pleaded Carla.

She got even closer to Terence and leaned against his chest. She was looking at him with full sincerity

as she spoke.

Sighing, Terence placed the towel he was using on his hair on the chair next to him. He then turned

and looked at Carla's eyes before asking, "What's the matter, Carla? You didn't hate getting married

before. What's with your sudden change of mind? Why are you hesitant to marry me now?

Don't tell me that you don't want to marry me anymore."

When he said the last sentence, his tone was so ghastly that it even frightened Carla.

"Not at all. I just...Well, how to say this... It just suddenly popped into my mind that I want to be free for

another two years," blurted Carla. She had longed for marriage before and thought that it was romantic.

However, being in this situation when she was about to get it, she hesitated and found that it wasn't as

easy as she first thought. There were just so many rules to follow in the An family and all she wanted

was a casual life.

One wrong move from her during a high-level party and she could cause the An family's reputation to

be marred. She would have to marry Terence together with all the An family's outdated rules. In short,

she would lose her beloved and cherished freedom.

She got scared after listening to Terence and her mother talk earlier.

"We cannot change those rules that easily, Carla. Of course, there would be rules during our first month

living in the An's Manor. But once we move out, you wouldn't need to keep all those rules in your mind

at all. We will live in the Seaview Villa and you can be whoever you want there. You just have to endure

the first month."

Terence held her hand tightly as he explained. He then continued in a gentle voice, "We've already

suffered a lot together. I don't understand what made you feel like this after hearing all the rules.

They're nothing compared to the hardships we have gone through. Besides, you will always have me

beside you. Don't cower, please."

Carla let out a long sigh and then leaned in his arms. She replied in an exhausted tone, "Even if you

will be with me, you can't chime in when I'm rebuked by the elders. It is me who will have to face all

this."

"Carla, you have to remember that it was my future mother-in-law who lectured you today. I didn't

interrupt her in order to show my respect for her and make her satisfied. I've done this all for you. Can't

you understand? When we are at the An family house, things will definitely be different. It's my duty to

protect you there. Moreover, do you think that I can take seeing you suffer in the An household?"

Terence knew that she was concerned about such matters so he patted on her back and tried to

comfort her. He was now smiling while talking to her.

"Most importantly, I'm the heir of the AJ Group and also the future master of the An family. So only my

father and grandfather dare to scold me. You are my wife and also the female master there. You will

only find others flattering you. Who would dare to find faults with you?"

Hearing what Terence said, she suddenly felt relieved and smiled happily. He was right.

"Really? Don't lie to me," exclaimed Carla.

"Of course. I never lie,"

Seeing her innocent expression, Terence answered her firmly and seriously.

He knew that she trusted him.
