Chapter 212 Have You Ever Wondered Who Your Are


    As soon as they returned from their beach trip, Terence grabbed breakfast together with Ca and then


    he headed back to thepany immediately.


    That was on a Sunday. So, Ca just decided to stay at home and hang out with Sean. And even


    though she wasn''t any good at ying basketball, she still wanted to y with him anyway.


    Basketball was the only pastime Sean was truly interested in. With Ca being his sister, she thought


    that she should at least give his favorite sport a chance, otherwise, they could end up having nothing to


    talk about in the future.


    Initially, she could barely even hold the basketball well, causing her to beughed at by Sean.


    Sean used to look up to her, but now that Terence was around, it seemed as though he had taken her


    ce in Sean''s life.


    "Hello? Noah..."


    Her mobile phone suddenly rang, so Ca flung the basketball toward the court and picked up the


    phone, a little bit out of breath.


    Noticing that she was panting, Noah''s eyebrows furrowed in an instant. "Ca, is now... a good time for


    you to be taking a call? Because if not, I can just call youter. That''s totally fine."


    It looked as though Noah got the wrong idea about what she was doing. He actually thought she was in


    the middle of having...


    Realizing that, Ca was cracking up so much, and she said, "Noah, what was it that you thought I was


    doing? I was out on the court ying some basketball with my brother!"


    "Oh, so that''s what was happening." A grin crept up on Noah''s face, feeling quite embarrassed as he


    had utterly misread the situation and took her gasping for air as being due to something else. "Ca,


    are you busy right now? Would you be able toe and see me? I''m actually in JA City at this


    moment."


    Ca looked at the watch and checked what time it was. It was barely just ten in the morning.


    "Okay, sure. Where would you like to meet?" Right after deciding on the time and the ce, she


    headed straight toward the vi to get dressed and get ready.


    Upon her arrival at their designated meeting ce, she saw that Noah was already waiting for her and


    had already taken a seat at one of the tables.


    "Sorry for beingte. Did you wait too long?" Ca nced at her watch. Due to the fact that she had


    been sweating all morning after ying basketball with Sean, she needed to take a shower and put on


    a fresh change of clothes. To add to that, she also got caught in traffic.


    "It''s totally fine. No need to worry about it," Noah reassured her, letting out a gentle smile as he


    watched her looking a bit uneasy.


    Ca could tell he was just being nice. Taking a seat across him, she took a sip of the water and asked,


    seeming to be so worried, "How are you? How are things going? Are you already feeling any better?"


    "Certainly. I''ve been doing fine. I''ve already gotten discharged from the hospital, haven''t I?" Noah


    replied, with a smile still glued to his face. But she noticed in an instant there was a shadow underneath


    his dark eyes. Wasting no time at all, his tone abruptly turned serious and he asked, "Ca, There''s


    actually something that I''ve been meaning to ask you. Forgive me, but I''m gonna have to cut to the


    chase. To tell you the truth, I''ve been implored to ask about it."


    Seeing him suddenly getting serious, Ca gathered herself together.


    "What''s the matter? Why did you get serious all of a sudden? If there''s something you wanna know,


    you can go ahead and ask," Ca responded.


    Noah lowered his gaze a little, but her response caused him to smile even if just a little.


    "Ca, have you ever wondered where you came from?"


    The second she heard his question, Ca had gotten caught so off guard that she instantly stopped in


    her tracks as she held a white cup of coffee. When she finally came to her senses, shaking her head,


    she answered, "No, I haven''t really thought of that. Why are you asking about it?"


    Noah had always been so kind and sweet, much like a warm gentle breeze. Upon hearing her answer,


    he shook his head ever so slightly and took a quick sip of his coffee.


    "Oh, I was just wondering. There''s this friend of mine who happened to see you one time. She


    mentioned how you were the spitting image of her daughter, someone who had been missing for many


    years now. For that reason, she asked me to look into it."


    Everything happened so fast. Noah''s questions were surprising, but he brought up the topic into the


    conversation as swiftly and reasonably as he could, making it somewhat easier to understand.


    Ca bobbed her head and remarked, "Then your friend would most probably be disappointed. Despite


    the fact that there''s a significant age gap between Sean and myself, I can say for certain that I wasn''t


    adopted. Without a shadow of a doubt!"


    Else, how could anyone have kept this secret going on for so long? If she were really an adopted


    daughter, she surely would''ve heard something about it by now.


    "Moreover, given that the friend you mentioned had lost her daughter so many years ago, how could


    she even know what she would look like at this point? Just where did she get the idea that I looked just


    like her long lost daughter? That makes zero sense to me."


    Noah simply smiled at her reaction and nodded. "You have a point. However, blood ties couldn''t ever


    be severed. There would be cases where even though you hadn''t met yet, you would still be able to


    somehow feel it."


    "Is that so? Then where''s this friend you''ve been talking about? If she truly thinks that I look an awful


    lot like her daughter, I wouldn''t mind hanging out with her every now and then. After all, I could


    understand just how much a mother could miss her lost child," retorted Ca, being so deep in thought


    about it.


    Since it was one of Noah''s trusted friends, she was probably a nice and trustworthy woman. At least


    that was what Ca was thinking.


    It was not like Noah really agreed to it or anything, but he simply said, "Okay, I''ll make sure to tell her


    you said that. If she says yes and she''s interested, then I''ll let you know right away."


    Ca didn''t say a word and simply nodded along. Despite the fact that she wasn''t really taking his


    words seriously, in a way, it was able to nt a seed well beneath her heart.


    There were times when things wouldn''t go the way you''d expect them to, but if you gave it some time,


    the influence it had on you could get stronger and stronger.


    When they were done having lunch, Ca was nning to head back to the vi right away, but Noah


    unexpectedly proposed that they go y a round of golf.


    She said yes to his invitation since she had nothing else better to do in the afternoon anyway.


    Even if she wasn''t really fond of the sport, she could just go for a walk around the course.


    Never in her life had Ca ever had any experience ying golf.


    So, upon their arrival at the golf course, all she did was watch as Noah yed.


    It was breezy and the sky was a bit cloudy, making the sunlight look a little bit faint.


    Leisurely lounging on the chair, Ca had been enjoying a cold ss of lemon iced tea, as she


    watched Noah put his fancy golf skills on disy.


    It seemed apparent that an elegant man such as Noah would be a natural golf yer. Rich and


    handsome, and he was even talented as well. The world could be so unfair sometimes.


    All of a sudden, someone appeared on the course to y, riding a golf cart.


    Johnny got out of the cart and checked the surroundings with dull nces. Grabbing the club from his


    caddie, he casually headed into the court holding his head up high.


    Kelvin, who was also there along with him, immediately waved at Ca upon noticing her from a


    distance.


    She was quite a capable equestrienne, and top it all off, she had actually defeated Johnny when they


    went horseback riding. So, for that very reason, Kelvin had be wary of Ca ever since, knowing


    full well that she shouldn''t be underestimated in any way.


    In any case, Ca just politely smiled back at him and simply carried on sipping on her lemon iced tea.


    In all honesty, she really couldn''t care less about Johnny''s cold nces at all.

    "Ca, would you like to have a go at it?"


    Noah inquired, noticing howid-back she seemed, having quite a good time leisurely sitting there.


    Putting down the ss she had been holding on the table next to her, Ca sprung up from her seat


    upon his encouragement. ''They''re just hitting the ball with a club. How hard can it be?'' Ca seriously


    thought.


    So, with that in mind, she approached Noah, grabbing the club from his hand, and began to swing it.


    On her very first attempt at swinging the club to hit the ball, she couldn''t even graze it.


    "Don''t give up yet. It''s just your first time doing this. Focus your attention on the ball, and give it another


    try," Noah patiently instructed her.


    Ca forced out a cough to clear her throat and adjusted her form, bearing Noah''s instructions. Then,


    making sure her eyes were fixated on the ball, she took a deep breath and swung on it again.


    On her second attempt, she was able to hit it right away. The moment the club came into contact with


    the ball, it produced an audible loud sound. Ca screamed out feeling so exhrated.


    Barely a few secondster, they heard a howling sounding from the direction where the ball just


    flew.


    "Shit! Who did that?!"


    Johnny yelled as he rubbed the part of his head where he got hit by the ball. Looking into the direction


    where the ball came from, he saw Ca standing there, who was now holding a golf club.


    Ca couldn''t hold back herughter, but she immediately walked over to where he was. It looked like


    she was somewhat getting the hang of it already. Just on her second attempt, she had already hit


    something.


    "I''m really sorry, Mr. Johnny. I had no idea it would hit you. It wasn''t on purpose. I guess that maybe the


    ball got a little bit jealous of your handsome figure,"


    Ca apologized, albeit yfully, as she was walking closer to him. The caddie was already holding in


    his hand the ball that hit Johnny.


    Johnny had his eyebrows deeply knit as he red at her. His handsome face would be tense and


    serious all the time by default. "I have no time to argue with a woman. You can leave as soon as you


    retrieve your ball."


    "Huh?!" Ca snickered. That was so typical of Johnny.


    "So, Mr. Johnny would never argue with women no matter what, wouldn''t he?"


    teased Ca, ying with the ball, tossing it upwards and catching it. "If my ball identally hits you


    one more time, I truly hope you can forgive me as always."


    Giving her a cold stare, Johnny didn''t bother humoring her with a response, thinking it wouldn''t be


    worth it. Besides, he knew full well that she wouldn''t be able to hit him a second time. After all, her first


    time was nothing but a fluke.


    Of course, she was just bluffing. There was no way she could pull that off again.
