Chapter 61 New House


    Terence frowned, hugely turned off and thought crossly, ''If she hadn''t said that, I would have made love


    to her and taken her virginity right here and right now without any hesitation.''


    Either way, Ca would belong to him sooner orter. When he took her made no difference to him.


    However, when he thought of the reason why she was giving herself to him, it extinguished all the


    zing passion that he had felt just a few moments ago. He wanted her to love him back, instead of


    doing this just to show her gratitude. It didn''t feel right. Terence thought that Ca had learned her


    lesson and would see how much she truly needed him, in her life.


    But in fact, she was still untamed at heart.


    "No, I mean it. Otherwise—


    Why would I prepare this for you?" Ca''s beautiful eyes twinkled. She reached out and opened the


    drawer of the nightstand, pulling out a condom.


    "Come on. Don''t be disturbed. Let''s continue, shall we?" Taking the initiative, Ca reached out to


    unfasten his belt, only to be pushed aside bluntly.


    "It''s gettingte. I''ve got business to do. I''lle and see youter."


    Terence straightened up and fastened his belt. He grabbed his shirt and strode away from the bed.


    Picking up the tabletputer from the living room, he quickly left the room.


    "Ha—Ha!"


    Cay back on the bed and burst intoughter after his departure. She smiled as she nced at the


    condom wrapped in silver foil in her hand.


    ''Why did he run away?


    Wasn''t he the one who wanted this so badly before?'' she wondered.


    In a room of the hotel next door, Nathany the files out that were just sent to them from the police


    station on the desk in front of Terence.


    "Mr. Terence, they are really traffickers. The only problem is that someone had sent them the


    information and asked them to kidnap Sean. But they don''t know who it was that sent them the


    information. This person is so deeply hidden. We haven''t been able to find their identity yet, in such a


    short time. But we''re still working on it."


    Terence crossed his arms and nced at the files.


    "The time is too short? You haven''t found him yet?"


    Nathan lowered his head at once and said, "We have started with JA City. For the moment, Johnny and


    Marcus can be excluded. The trouble we brought them before wasn''t too serious but was enough to


    keep them busy for a while.


    As for your father, we don''t think he was the one, after the investigation. He doesn''t have motive."


    "So?"


    "So, there''s only Miss Megan left. You drove her out of the vi and she probably feels humiliated. She


    would hold a grudge against you. Every time she wanted to see you, you refused. It''s more than likely


    that she wanted to vent her anger out on Miss Ca."


    Terence held his chin in his hand and stared thoughtfully at the affidavit on the table. There were


    surging currents hidden in his seemingly peaceful eyes.


    "Megan hated Ca so much that she burnt Ca''s house. I believe that. But, I don''t think she would


    be that insane, to harm a kid."


    Something was off. He must have overlooked something.


    "How many people knew that I wasing to BH City?"


    he asked.


    "You came here on the spur of the moment. Very few people would have known about it. I don''t believe


    your whereabouts would have been leaked out. But— Many might have noticed that now. Mr. An, the


    director of the BH city''s public security bureau has sent his undercover people to secretly protect you,"

    Nathan said.


    Terence took the files of the three suspects and leaned back on the chair, scanning through their


    individual statements quickly. He frowned.


    "No! We thought the arson and the kidnapping were carried out by the same group of people. But now,


    it appears that we were wrong. It was Megan who set fire to Ca''s house. She did it purely out of


    revenge, with no intention of harming anyone.


    However, the ones that ordered Sean''s kidnapping have no ties with Megan. They weren''t expecting


    our arrival. That is to say, their ns have been set back temporarily."


    Terence had a satisfied sparkle in his eyes, knowing that they managed to foil the kidnapper''s ns.


    "Nathan, go and interrogate the three traffickers again. Make sure to find out, when and where they


    were going to take Sean to next!"


    He had a gut feeling, that something deeper was hidden behind all of this and it was about to reveal


    itself. If there was a clue, he could track it down and find out the truth.


    ''However, someone had leaked out information about Sean, a ten-year-old boy, to the kidnappers.


    Why?'' thought Terence.


    "Yes. I''ll do it immediately. But Mr. Terence, you should go and rest. You haven''t slept all night. There''s


    a meeting this morning and dinner party in the evening. Don''t exhaust yourself,"


    Nathan said, trying to persuade him.


    Terence nodded and waved to dismiss him.


    In the suite of the hotel next door.


    Ca had a nap. When she woke up she made a call to Sean''s teacher to excuse him from school for


    two days. That would give him time to have a good rest and allow them enough time to move into the


    new apartment Terence had prepared for them.


    After tossing about all night long, she had a lot of things figured out. Her gloomy heart had also cleared


    up.


    Maybe people wouldn''t be enlightened until they went through some desperate moments.


    "Miss Ca, are you awake? Sean is still sleeping in his room. How about having a bite to eat


    downstairs?"


    Rainer greeted her with a smile as she came out of her room.


    Ca opened the door quietly to Sean''s room to check on him. Just as Rainer had said, he was


    sleeping soundly. She closed the door behind her and went downstairs.


    In the dinning hall downstairs.


    Ca fetched a bowl of millet congee, a breakfast roll, and some delicious cold dishes. She sat down at


    a dinner table.


    She lost her appetite yesterday because of Sean''s missing. She hadn''t eaten anything up until now.


    Millet congee is very delicious on an empty stomach.


    When she looked up from her bowl, she noticed a man sitting diagonally opposite her.


    Some people just stand out in a crowd, whether you know them or not, because there was some sort of


    attraction drawing your eyes there.


    Just like Terence. He would be the most eye-catching one, even in a crowd of a thousand.


    Having noticed her gaze, the man raised his head and looked at her. He nodded to her gently, in the


    most polite manner.


    Ca paused and smiled back.


    He was quite a gentleman. Although at first sight, he wasn''t very handsome, but he did have a warm


    and friendly face. There was a certain charm about him.


    Terence was different. Every part of his body was exquisite and he had an inborn noble temperament.


    Shortly after, someone walked up to him and said quietly, "Sir, the car is waiting outside for you."


    "Okay," the man responded. He continued eating his breakfast elegantly but hastened the pace slightly.


    Once he had finished, he stood up and left.


    It was such a brief encounter, of which Ca had soon forgotten about entirely.


    But, what she didn''t know, was this man, whom she considered to be a polite gentleman, would be


    closely rted to her and that he would lead her, step by step to a startling discovery. Of a dreadful


    secret!


    After breakfast, Ca went back to her room upstairs.


    Startled and exhausted, Sean didn''t woke up until noon. He had lunch in the hotel. Rainer then drove


    Ca and Sean to their new apartment.


    The house was selected by Terence. It was a block away from their old apartment and was under


    constant camera surveince.


    The flow of people there wasparativelyrge. Especially during the day when parents drove their


    children to and from school. Policemen would be there to regte the traffic. It was perfectly safe.


    The apartment itself was muchrger than their old one and it had a nice big balcony for Ca and


    Sean to enjoy.


    Terence must have devoted a lot of time and effort to find such a suitable house in so short a time,


    especially in the school district.


    "Miss Ca, from now on, this is yours and Sean''s new home. The designer hase this morning. If


    you have any ideas about the decor or furniture, please let me know.


    As for the cost of the furniture, you can rest assured that Mr. Terence has taken care of that. Anything


    that may appeal to you or Sean please feel free to let me know and I will arrange it. Pleasee in


    and make yourselves at home."


    Saying so, Rainer showed her around the house.


    "What a big beautiful house, Ca! Terence is so amazing! He found us such a wonderful new home in


    such a short time!" Sean said as he looked around in awe. His voice filled with adoration.


    "Ca, this is your room and this one is mine. And this one, is for Terence. He won''t have to sleep on


    the sofa anymore,"


    Sean said in excitement.


    "What..." Rainer looked at Ca in disbelief and then bent down to ask Sean curiously, "Sean, did you


    just say that Mr. Terence slept on—On the sofa in your old apartment?"


    Having been raised up like a prince, Terence had lived in seascape vis that were worth billions since


    he was a child. He rode in luxury cars such as a Rolls-Royce and Maserati. How could he possibly


    sleep on the sofa in someone else''s home so shamelessly?


    Sean blinked up at him with those ck and innocent eyes of his and nodded without hesitation.


    "Yes. Terence always slept on the sofa, because Ca wouldn''t let him sleep with her!"
