Chapter 123 The Crafty Couple


    With these words Terence sat down and crossed his legs. He stared at Bonnie with a sullen face. There


    wasn''t a hint of a smile on his handsome face.


    "Ca, I know Sean''s suffering was torture for you. But Bonnie didn''t mean to do it, as she said. And


    she wasn''t aware that you had saved my life.


    For my sake, just allow Bonnie to serve you a cup of tea as a humble apology and let bygones be


    bygones. What do you say?"


    On the surface, it appeared that Terence was on Bonnie''s side. But Ca knew that he was rooting for


    her. A nice hard punch to Bonnie''s face would have been much more satisfying for Ca, but, she had


    to make do with a cup of tea as an apology instead.


    But would Bonnie be willing to do that?


    A cold and subtle smile appeared on Ca''s face. "Oh, will she? But I''m afraid that Miss Bonnie''s


    dignity may not allow her to apologize to a nobody like me?"


    At her words, Terence smiled in silence casting expectant eyes to Bonnie.


    Bonnie gave a slight cough. She stood up picked up a cup of freshly poured tea and walked to Ca.


    "Miss Ca, it was all my fault. You saved Terence, so you are also my savior. This cup of tea is an


    apology. I would appreciate it if you could forgive me and ept it."


    With these words, Bonnie bowed and held the teacup to Ca.


    Ca raised her eyes from Bonnie to Terence, who was watching her with a warm smile on his face.


    She was in no hurry to take the teacup. Compared to what Sean had suffered, holding a teacup for a


    while was nothing. Bonnie deserved it.


    It was not until Bonnie''s arms started trembling that Ca took the cup from her hands slowly.


    "Since you have shown your sincerity, I forgive you," Ca said in a tolerant and generous tone.


    Standing in the corner, Rainer lowered his head in silence.


    He wanted to correct what he had just said. Miss Ca was just as devious as Mr. Terence. They were


    very suited to each other.


    Bonnie took a deep breath. Her eyes were filled with hatred and resentment. No matter how much she


    hated Ca, she would have to endure this indignity for the moment.


    Bonnie stretched her back slightly and glided over to Terence. "Terence, I feel tired. You will let me stay


    here tonight, won''t you?"


    Bonnie said in a cutesy manner as she sat beside him and gazed at him with pouty lips.


    Now that she had made an apology, as Terence''s fiancee she was supposed to be allowed to do what


    she wanted.


    Terence looked away ignoring her. He simply patted Bonnie''s hand and said, "Don''t be so childish,


    Bonnie. Ca and Sean have just moved into the house. Your presence would only remind them of the


    unpleasant incident that you caused.


    We''ve got lots of time. You''d better just go home now. I''ll see youter."


    Bonnie burst into tears because she didn''t get her way.


    "You are such a sensible girl, Bonnie. You will always conduct yourself properly, won''t you?" Terence


    continued without falling for her crocodile tears.


    The tears of a pretty girl were achingly beautiful, indeed.


    As an ancient poem goes; "Just like a pear blossom bathed in the rain, a beauty weeps."


    Bonnie was an extraordinarily beautiful girl, especially when she was in tears. But those tears were


    insincere and rehearsed used only for one purpose and that was to get what she wanted. The tears on


    Bonnie were controlled and so she still managed to look elegant even with tears. Terence got great


    pleasure from seeing Bonnie''s tears.


    However, the pleasure had nothing to do with affection. On the contrary.


    Whereas, Ca, she was also a beautiful girl. However, she didn''t look elegant when she cried. Ca''s


    tears were candid and heartfelt. Her tears were from her soul and unforced.


    Terence''s heart would break when he saw Ca cry.


    His heart would be filled with sorrow and pain. And how could he see how beautiful she was when he


    would have her enveloped in his arms?


    Bonnie knew that she had lost this game tonight. But it didn''t matter, just as Terence said, they had


    time.


    "Well then, I''m leaving now." Bonnie forced herself to stand up. She nodded to Ca and was just


    about to say something to Terence.


    But Terence stopped her abruptly, "Rainer, see Bonnie out for me!"


    Bonnie was about to ask Terence to apany her, but she swallowed her words.


    Without saying anything, she turned and left in a huff.


    The moment Bonnie had left, Terence sat down beside Ca and wrapped his arm around her slender


    waist kissing her tenderly on the cheek. "Bonnie has learned her lesson. Do you feel a bit better now?"


    He couldn''t do anything radical for now, but he was sure that Bonnie would no longer bully her.


    Ca heaved a heavy sigh and then nced at him. "Are you sure she won''t try to take her revenge


    out on us after this humiliation?"


    His hand slithered up from her waist and he looked at her with an enchanting smile. "She can try all


    she wants. I couldn''t care less. The more mistakes that she makes will only give me more reasons to


    break the engagement off."


    Ca raised her eyebrows and gave him a little nudge. "But really, aren''t you at least just a little


    worried?"


    "Not in the least. We''ll deal with it. Let her do as she will. I''ll just collect all the evidence and show it to


    her father,"


    Terence whispered in her ear. His hand slid around to her back and undid the sps of her bra with


    one fluid movement. "Ca, why don''t we go swimming tonight? I want to see you in a sexy bikini."


    Ca noticed her bra go ck and shot him a nce while she pushed his hand aside.


    "Can''t you just behave yourself? There are people here."


    The servants passed by from time to time and they would see them. Terence could be as shameless as


    he wanted, after all, he was a man and this was his house. But Ca, she had her pride and wanted a


    bit more discretion. She was well aware of how people liked to gossip.


    "Don''t worry too much about them. I''ve already warned them when you camest time. Their lips are


    sealed. They''ll see nothing. Just rx.


    Besides, you will be the hostess here in the future. They wouldn''t dare risk offending you."

    Terence nibbled her earlobe yfully. Every time she was near him, he wanted to swallow her up in


    one gulp. She was just so irresistible to him.


    Unfortunately for him, his Ca was too conservative.


    He had spent countless hours daydreaming about how he would seduce her. But she always managed


    to resist his allure.


    Poor Terence. When would Ca give herself to him totally? That day may still be far away.


    Or perhaps, Cupid had passed by and heard hisint


    because Terence''s dream seemed to being true.


    The night fell.


    Nathan picked Sean up from school in person.


    Sean had been upset all day long because of the ident. But when he realized that he was sent to


    Terence''s house, Sean''s gloomy heart cleared up. He even thought his injuries were a blessing in


    disguise.


    Had he not been injured, Terence wouldn''t have insisted on bringing Ca and him to live with him.


    Nathan had told him that Ca refused firmly when Terence raised the idea.


    But in the end, Terence gave up on asking and used another method of persuasion. He threw Ca


    over his shoulder and carried her like that downstairs. Later on he asked the servants to pack her


    things up and bring them to the house. That was how Ca moved into Terence''s house.


    Ha—Ha! Terence was quite a man!


    "Wow! This mousse cake is so delicious! Ca, it''s much better than the cheapie made in the bakery


    near our apartment."


    Gobbling down the cake, Sean was full of praise. "Yummy! It''s so sweet!"


    "Oh Sean, look at you. Mind your table manners. If you were somewhere else, people wouldugh at


    you." Ca chuckled and wiped the crumbs from his mouth with a napkin.


    Sean grinned shed his straight pearly white teeth. "I''m not afraid of beingughed at. And you know


    what Ca? I''m going to make a fortune in the future and buy you the most expensive cakes and a


    beautiful house for you."


    Terence, who was having his dinner sitting beside them tapped Sean''s te with his spoon.


    "Sean, all you have to do is to work hard and provide a good life for your future wife. As for your sister


    I''ll take care of her. You don''t have to worry about that."


    Terence filled a bowl of delicious mushroom soup and passed it to Ca.


    Ca enjoyed Chinese food so he told the cook to prepare all kinds of Chinese food for her.


    When they had finished dinner, Rainer approached them.


    "Mr. Terence, there''s a phone call for you. It''s your father."
