Chapter 208 Confrontation


    "Terence, what did you just say? You want me to meet Erica?" Ca asked just to make sure that what


    she heard from him was right.


    Terence walked towards her and ced his hands around her waist. Then he whispered to her, "Yes. I


    want you to meet Erica. Since you got so angry with what happenedst night, I think it is necessary for


    me to reassure you that the real rtionship between Erica and I right now is purely about business.


    Anyway, let''s go and have some lunch. After that, I''ll take you to a great ce where I''m sure you will


    have a good time,"


    said Terence while leading her into the dining hall.


    Just as the old proverb said, ''Seeing is believing.'' Terence was afraid that Ca would get the wrong


    idea if he didn''t show her that he had no feelings for Erica anymore.

    That day, Terence took Ca to a club. When they got there, she realized that it was exactly where she


    met Ericast time.


    The club was very big and apparently, what she saw thest time she was there was only the the tip of


    the iceberg.


    Sean had been there before so he was already familiar with the ce. When he got out of the car, he


    immediately rushed to go inside.


    Theo was a real party boy and by the time Terence and Ca arrived at the club, he was already there


    with his new girlfriend, Ashley. They were happily sharing a cup of dessert while waiting for Terence.


    They didn''t stand up until they saw that Ca and Terence were walking towards them.


    "Took you long enough. We''ve been waiting here for you all day!"


    Theoined to Terence and Ca and then said, "Why didn''t you get an early start? Our schedule


    is pretty full today. After our activity here, I''ll go bungee jumping with Ashley. We also have a lot of


    ns for tonight. Let''s have dinner, drink wine and sing in a KTV! How about you promise to


    apany me until the end of the day, Terence?"


    "Okay. That sounds exciting. Let''s have fun all day!"


    Terence replied while looking happily at Ca.


    Ca finally came back from BH City so he was not alone anymore. He was in an extremely good


    mood.


    The four of them headed towards the shooting range with Sean.


    Just then, a woman descended from the stairs and was now walking towards the five of them.


    Ca recognized that the woman was Erica. She still couldn''t believe that the call girl that she met in


    the Entertainment Club had that kind of rtionship with Terence, her boyfriend.


    However, Erica didn''t look like the call girl from the Entertainment Club at the moment. In fact, she


    looked like a weather-beaten girl who just wanted someone to love.


    She was like a plum blossoming in December. Even if it was freezing, she still managed to look


    beautiful. There was an asional sad light twinkling in her eyes and it made her look more soft and


    stunning.


    Theo froze for a short while when he saw that a beautiful woman was walking towards them. Then


    when he was about to say hi to her, she moved towards Terence. He sighed and thought. ''Why do all


    the women I am interested in always turn towards Terence?''


    "Terence, Miss Ca, it''s nice to see you again."


    After greeting Terence, Erica faced Ca and said, "Terence, do you mind if I talk to Ca for a


    second?"


    Terence nodded his head in agreement and nced at Ca. "Ca, I''ll head inside with Sean first."


    We''ll wait for you beside the shooting chamber, Erica and Ca sat by the window. They could see the


    shooting chamber if they turn their heads a bit.


    Erica, who was sitting across from Ca, suddenly stood up and solemnly bowed to her.


    "Ca, I''m so sorry that I failed to help you in the Entertainment Club before."


    When she saw that Erica bowed to her in apology, Ca quickly stood up and held her hands. "Erica,


    please don''t say that. I understand that you were just working. There is no reason for me to me


    you."


    Erica had no choice but to do what her boss told her to and Ca knew that as well.


    Erica stood up and looked at Ca. She felt very guilty at what happened. "Ca, just as I thought,


    you''re not a simple girl. At first, I just thought that you just had a good rtionship with Mr. Noah but it


    turned out that you are actually Terence''s girlfriend.


    If I had known that you were Terence''s girlfriend, I would have tried my best to help you," Erica said.


    That time, two important persons appeared in Entertainment Club. One of them was Noah and


    the other one was Terence. As soon as Ca left the Entertainment Club with Noah, Terence came


    looking for her.


    When Terence arrived at the club, Brooke had already gone to the hospital with Noah and Ca, so


    Erica was the one who met with him. When she saw Terence, her first boyfriend, she was utterly


    shocked.


    "Erica, please don''t stand there. Let''s sit down and continue our talk," said Ca while urging Erica to


    sit down.


    After taking her seat, Erica added while looking through the window at Terence who was teaching Sean


    how to shoot, "Several years ago, my mother worked at Terence''s mansion and I stayed there with her.


    That was where I met Terence.


    But don''t get me wrong, Ca. We broke up a long time ago and we haven''t seen each other since


    then. There is no romantic connection between us now"


    After hearing Erica''s exnation, Ca felt terrible for judging her rtionship with Terence. She


    thought, ''I am really narrow-minded. How could I be so mad at Terence without even hearing the whole


    story?


    I''m lucky that Terence loves me so much. I''m thankful that he took the time to patiently exin


    everything to me.''


    "Ca, actually, I feel that I should thank you. Because of you I got the chance to meet Terence again,"


    said Erica. Then she nced at Terence with her face full of emotions, "When I was young and life was


    really hard, he gave me hope. He was the one who gave me the reason to keep on living.


    I admit that I loved him very much when we were young but right now, the love I had for him was just a


    precious memory."


    Ca realized while listening to Erica that her love for Terence was just a thing in the past now and that


    it had be just good memories for her.


    It did not surprise Ca to hear that Erica loved Terence.


    Terence was always very popr with the girls. Besides, they both lived in the same house for many


    years when they were teenagers and young people had a natural curiosity about love.


    "Ca, as a matter of fact, whether in the past or the present, nothing will ever happen between me


    and Terence. Do you want to know why?" asked Erica while fixing her sad eyes on Ca.


    Then she added, "It has nothing to do with who I am."


    Ca nced at Terence who was ying with Sean and then looked back at Erica.


    "Then why?" she asked.


    ''Since it has nothing to do with who she is now, then what''s the reason?'' Ca thought to herself.


    Erica kept her head down and forced a smile.


    "He was nice to me and cared about me but he never looked at me the way he looks at you. There was


    no love in his eyes whenever he looked at me. When we were still together, although I was his


    girlfriend, I was sure that I was not the life partner that he was looking for.


    The moment he found out that I got myself in a really bad situation, he arranged a ce for me to live


    without even saying anything. Then he negotiated with the boss of Entertainment Club to get me out of


    there. I can tell that he still cares about me and that he didn''t despise me even if I worked as a call girl.


    He is still the same as before but right now, he finally met the girl that he wants to marry."


    When she finished speaking, Erica looked up at Ca with eyes that showed that she was envious of


    her.


    "Ca, you are lucky to be Terence''s girlfriend. People may hate you and even do something to hurt


    you because of that, but you should believe that you will have a happy and bright future with him


    because he really loves you and you deserve to be together!"


    Erica said while gently taking Ca''s hand. She looked at her with sincerity in her eyes.


    Just outside the window, Theo walked towards Terence with a gun in his hand. "Terence, do you know


    what they are talking about? Are you dating both of them? Are they confronting each other face to


    face?"


    After loading a shot, Terence took off his earplugs and goggles to re at Theo.


    "Just mind your own business," replied Terence.


    Compared to Terence, Theo had more girlfriends than he could count.


    "I have my own principles and that is to fall in love with only one woman at a time. This way, I don''t


    have to deal with any trouble concerning my girlfriends," Theo said confidently.


    His girlfriend at the moment was Ashley and she was shooting on the other side of the room so she


    couldn''t hear what they were talking about.


    "Really? Then please tell me what happened with Ivyst time you saw her?" asked Terence while


    pushing Theo away. He nced behind Theo to see Ca who was walking towards them with a smile


    on her face.


    Theo coughed to hide his embarrassment. He wondered, ''When and how did he know that I slept with


    Ivy recently?''


    Just a few days ago, Ivy came looking for Theo and she told him tearfully that she wanted to get back


    together with him. He felt terrible whenever women cried in front of him so heforted her and tried


    to cheer her up but it ended with him having sex with her.


    "That was an ident. There are so many beautiful women waiting for me and I just want to keep my


    options open. As for you, I think you should also keep your options open. I admit that Ca is pretty


    amazing but don''t forget that no matter how perfect she is, she is just a woman and she can be easily


    reced,"


    suggested Theo. He didn''t notice that Ca was just a few steps away from them.


    Instead of stopping, Theo added, "A man is just like a teapot, and he can have countless of teacups. If


    you always pour water into the same cup, what''s the fun in that?"


    Theo turned around when he was finished speaking and saw that Ca was behind him.
