Chapter 148 He Was Her Humble Servant
Terence frowned and put on aforting smile. He held her hands firmly and added, "I''m willing to do

anything for you, but on one condition, you have to promise me that you will never leave me."
"Okay. Are you sure there''s nothing else?" Ca asked impatiently.
"No," Terence shook his head with certainty.
"You have my word then," Ca''s beautiful eyes twinkled as she reassured him. "As you''ve said,
everything that happened yesterday was merely a nightmare. I''ll forget it. We won''t talk about it any
more."
Taken aback by her words, he paused for a moment.
Terence raised his brows into a furrow as he inquired, "Everything?"
"Of course. Don''t worry about me. I have nerves of steel. Moreover, I''m fine now, and I''ll be careful in
the future," Ca shrugged casually. She touched her empty belly as she started to feel hungry.
As his girlfriend, she had prepared herself for whatever consequences that would befall in the future.
As long as Sean was safe, she wouldn''t mind at all.
Terence gazed at her cautiously. He picked up the phone and ordered the servants to bring in the food.
Ca''s stomach was letting out a weird noise. She was so hungry that she felt as if she could eat a
horse right then. She grabbed the bowl and gulped it down instantly. She belched with a contented
smile on her face and took a sip of the orange juice.
"I''ll go for a nap in my room."
Having eaten her fill, Ca stretched herself and trotted to her own room.
Terence blinked and raised his eyebrow. Something didn''t feel right.
He snapped his fingers at the servants gesturing at them to clear up the table. He then followed her
spontaneously.
"Ca?" "Ca!"
Ca had just gotten back to her room. Hearing his voice, she opened the door and peeped out at him.
"Yes?"
Terence squinted his eyes and smiled at Ca, who was as vignt as before, "Ca, open the door
and let me in."
Now that she had given herself totally, and his happy days had finallye, how could she pretend as
if nothing had happened earlier?
No man liked to let go of that good feeling once he had tasted it.
She couldn''t forget it. She just couldn''t. He wouldn''t allow that.
"So? What do you want?" Ca stared at him, confused and nervous. She left the door ajar and
stepped aside—since she wouldn''t be able to stop him if he insisted oning in.
Terence walked into the room and shut the door. He strode forward and wrapped his arm around her
slender waist, gazing at her lovingly all throughout. "Ca, let''s just forget those bad memories, but as
for the good ones, why don''t we keep them? Why do we have to let them go?"
"Did anything good happen yesterday?"
He was so nervous that his face turned pale and his palms were sweating profusely. Ca tittered.
Just like a kid who had lost the candy that he just got, Terence was terrified and clueless.
"Of course! For me, that was one of the best nights ever!" Terence replied without hesitation. He held
her closer to himself a whispered, "Ca, if you''ve forgotten it, why don''t we try again?"
Terence asked anxiously. He had to strike while the iron is hot or he may never get another chance. He
must impress her and even make her rely on him.
After all, she was druggedst night. Her first intercourse with him was involuntary. That wasn''t a
record he wanted to keep.
Her reaction was no surprise.
"Terence, you promised me. You can''t break your words." He had promised her that he wouldn''t force
her to do anything that she was ufortable with. But now, he was holding her so tightly as if he
would swallow her up in one gulp.
"That was a mistake,"
murmured Ca. She was drugged and hadpletely lost control on herself. She would never have
done such things if she was sober-minded.
Terence sighed and forced a smile. He pressed her hand against his chest and let her feel his
heartbeat. "Ca, you are wrong. That wasn''t a mistake. Cupid had heard my prayers and was moved
by my sincerity.
So he gave you to me and my dream finally came true!
How can you be so cruel to forget it and deprive me of the happiness?"
He gazed at her with widely opened eyes, just like a kid begging for his candies. Ca could feel his
heart beating hastily.
"And besides, Ca, it was you who started it. You should take the responsibility. How can you
consider abandoning me after doing such things to me?"ined Terence in a bid to win her favour.
Ca''s bright eyes twinkled. She raised his chin with her fingertip and put on a sly smile, "Who said I''ll
abandon you? You are my man now. Of course, I''ll take the entire responsibility."
Terence was visibly amused by her words.
"Oh really? So has my queen finally made up her mind, and decided to take me in?"
His hands caressed her waist gently and slithered down little by little taking his own sweet time. They
weren''t in a hurry.
"Yes!" Ca replied in a loud and determined voice, "But, from now on, you shall not approach my bed
without my permission. Did I make myself clear?"
Ca pulled his hands from her hip firmly, opened the door and pushed him out without mercy.
"Terence, I want to take some rest now. Mind your own business and leave me alone for a while."
Everything had finally gotten back to normal and she was not a flower grown in a greenhouse. She
could take care of herself. She was wilder than most people around.
Terence had been banished disrespectfully.
Nathan and Rainer were waiting by the door.
"Mr. Terence, we''ve found something," said Nathan.
He was concerned about his boss''s future.
Estimating from the direction in which things were going, Terence would definitely be his wife''s
humble servant sooner thanter.
Just look at them. He did whatever she asked him to do. He was obedient as a puppy.
Terence was Nichs''s favorite grandson, and he had served in the army for five long years. He was a
man of iron. But he seldom mentioned his past experience to others, so Ca might still be ignorant
about it.
After all, he was a soldier with a strong mind and plentiful chivalry to his credit. But now, faced against
a girl, he was willing to take a back seat and obey like a subordinate.
"Yeah? We''ll talk about it in the study." Terence himself waspletely unaware of the worries of his
subordinates. The moment he stepped out of the door, he regained his proud way of conducting
himself. He strode forward, hands tucked in both pockets.
Nathan and Rainer exchanged looks, remaining speechless throughout.
In anyone else''s eyes, Terence was the noble, handsome and well-bred young master of the An Family.
As long as—
As long as— Miss Ca was not by his side.
"Mr. Terence, the head of the gang was caught and we confiscated his cell phone. There were two
people in his contact list." Rainer showed him the data stored in theptop.
"One of them disguised her voice whenever she contacted him."
Rainer yed the audio and said, "We restored the voice and narrowed down the line of potential
suspects. And after using the positioning system, we are sure that it was Miss Bonnie.
But Miss Bonnie''s n was to ruin Miss Ca''s integrity but not to kill her. Maybe Miss Bonnie''s
intention was to disgrace Miss Ca, so that Miss Ca would be so ashamed and disgusted on
herself that she would choose to leave you voluntarily,"
summarized Rainer.
Terence smiled drily and leaned back in his chair. He skimmed through the information and grasped the
gist of it, "And who''s the other person in his contact list?"
Nathan exined, "Mr. Terence, this man is deeply hidden. We tracked down on every clue we had and
found an ordinary man. He was only working for someone else who he didn''t know."
Terence nced at him, apparently unsatisfied with his answer.
Even if there was no clear evidence, he wanted them to render him a possible suspect.
Nathan lowered his head and added, "But I think he may well be a member of the Hua family, since
Noah had also attacked Miss Ca in BH city.
We were thinking, Mr. Terence, maybe we could no longer keep Miss Ca''s real identity a secret,
since it has been known by many."
