Chapter 199 Small Inconvenience


    "Noah, please listen to me. We have gone through so many hardships together. I can promise you that


    I won''t interfere with anything! Even if you have other girlfriends, it won''t bother me. Will you please let


    me stay by your side?" Julie''s gaze lowered and her eyes twinkled with tears.


    Noah mmed the book shut, startling Julie.


    He put it on the table as his eyebrow furrowed.


    He would let Julie stay a little longer.


    But the situation had changed. He needed to concentrate.


    All he wanted was power and influence. He should be the head of the Hua family! If he failed to get that


    position, what was the point of the other things?


    "You know what? I''m tired. Please leave," Noah sighed.


    Julie decided not to push on. She stood up. "Noah, I won''t change my number. If you need me, you can


    always find me, okay?


    Have a good rest. Goodbye."


    Then she turned around and left.


    When she was finally gone, Noah took out his cellphone and looked at the time. He decided to scroll on


    the contacts in his cellphone. After pausing for a while, he dialed a certain number.


    He asked gently once the line was connected, "Ca, are you already at the hotel?"


    "Yes, I just arrived," she replied. She just received his call the moment Rainer pulled up the car at the


    hotel.


    Noah smiled, "That''s good to hear. Take care of yourself. Have a good sleep tonight. If you have any


    problems, feel free to call me. I can always offer you some help in HA City."


    Ca smiled as she made her way to the elevator. "I''ll keep that in mind. But it would be good if you


    keep your sister away from me. She''s being a pain at my neck."


    "Don''t worry. I''ll deal with her. I promise," Noah said. He took a look at outside and saw Julie talking to


    Bonnie.


    "Very well then. Noah, I hope you have a good rest. I''ll visit you tomorrow. Oh yeah, do you like


    porridge? I can make some for you when I visit tomorrow evening."


    She finally gotten off the elevator and walked to her room.


    Rainer also booked a room beside Ca''s in order to protect her.


    "That would be lovely. Thank you, Ca." Noah couldn''t help but smile.


    The smile remained on his face after he ended the call. He could recall how she rushed towards him


    like a scared fawn when he found her.


    At the moment, he was scared.


    She was helpless. Her clothes were almost torn apart and barely covered her body. She was desperate


    to run away from those men.


    His heart was filled with pity and concern for her.


    However, when she hid behind him, something bloomed inside his heart.


    His heart started beating fast and it made him tender and soft. It was rather a strange feeling.


    The only thing in his mind at that time was protecting her. He wanted to protect her from any harm. The


    feeling was so strong that he suffered the stab for her without any hesitation when she was in danger.


    It was a first for him. No other woman nor Julie ever made him feel that way before.


    It was Ca who filled his heart with so much tenderness. He sighed to himself as he clutched the


    phone in his hand. He felt so confused with what he was feeling. Maybe he could indulge himself for a


    while.


    Meanwhile, at the hotel, Ca was taking a long shower. She kept rubbing her skin until it turned red.


    She felt so filthy all over when she had left the entertainment club.


    Once she had finished, she went to her bedroom and took out her iPad. She made a video call to


    Terence.


    After three rings, he immediately answered, "Why did you left today? Where were you? I didn''t even


    get a chance to see you!" Ca pouted her lips like a child as she saw Terence''s face.


    Even though they had been apart not long ago, she had missed him badly.


    Terence chuckled, "Well, I didn''t want to be of disturbance between you and Noah. It''s proper you


    should thank him. After all, he saved your life."


    Ca couldn''t believe her ears. She squinted at him skeptically, "Ohe on, Terence. Don''t tell me


    you''re jealous of us?"


    Terence shrugged as he smiled smugly, "What should I be jealous about? I''m not that narrow-minded."


    Noah did so many things behind Ca''s back. Terence believed that it was only fair that he owed Ca


    this.


    Since he was the Hua family''s adopted son, Ca was also his sister. A brother was obliged to put his


    sister above himself.


    "Wow. Since when you have been so generous? Is that really you?" Ca teased. She propped up her


    chin with both hands and looked at Terence in the screen. She really did miss him.


    Her grin turned sweeter when she saw the wooden-fish bracelet on his wrist.


    None of them uttered a single word. They stared at each other lovingly in silence.


    Suddenly, a voice cried out, startling both of them.


    "Hey, Terence, if you don''t have anything to say to her, let me talk to her!" Sean appeared in the


    screen, pushing Terence aside to make space for himself.


    "Alright." Terence obliged, giving Sean more space.


    Ca''s eyes sparkled in happiness when she saw Sean''s little face.


    "Sean! I missed you so much! How are you doing?"


    It was almost wee hours in the morning when they had finished the call.


    Ca felt so exhausted. She fell asleep the moment her head sank onto her pillow. After all, she didn''t


    manage to sleep a winkst night.


    The next morning, Rainer drove and apanied Ca into the factory.


    Suddenly the factory director was acting hostile towards her. When she proposed to take a look at the


    store, he immediately refused.


    "But sir, haven''t we agreed on this before?" She couldn''t understand why did he suddenly changed his


    mind.


    "I am sorry, Ms. Ca, I couldn''t heed your request since I am very busy today. Pleasee back


    tomorrow." The director waved at her politely.


    Ca wanted to argue but Rainer held her shoulder to stop her. "Ms. Ca, let us not waste our time


    here."


    Once they have left the factory, Ca decided to vent out her frustration. The director promised her that


    the sample would be ready and she could finally take a look for herself. But he went back on his word.


    How unprofessional!


    "Ms. Ca, I''ve seen so many cases like that. I have a hunch that someone was behind this. Someone


    pitched in with the director to change his mind,"


    Rainer told her.


    She suddenly felt enlightened by his words.


    She thought of telling Noah about this matter. She was going to visit him in the evening and he


    promised to help her anyways.


    Once she came back to the hotel, she asked the staff if she could use their kitchen. When they had


    agreed, she started making porridge as she told Noah.

    "Ms. Ca, I have a suggestion. Why don''t you tell Mr. Terence and ask him for help?"


    Rainer asked while they were on their way to the hospital.


    Ca shook her head. "No need. I think it was Bonnie who messed it up so I guess the Hua family can


    fix it up for me. This is just a small inconvenience. No need to bother Terence about this."
