Chapter 243 Promises Calling (Part Two)
It was also the perfect ce for Terence since he was injured. It allowed him a period of time to get
better and had his matters handled undisturbed.
"Hey sweetheart, you''re back!"
As soon as Ca walked inside, Terence immediately put his phone down and greeted her with a grin
on his face. If it wasn''t the drip he had attached on, he would''ve jumped on her and hug her dearly.
"Why the drip is still on? I thought it would probably end by now. Have you eaten yet?" Ca walked
straight up to him after she changed into her indoor shoes.
Staring at Ca with a seductive smile, Terence replied, "It was put on just not long before so it might
take some time."
Sniffing around her shoulder, the unused arm of his curled around Ca''s waist as he spoke. Suddenly,
he stopped his hand and frowned a little bit.
A moment of hesitation hit him in and he suddenly grabbed Ca''s arm with another hand.
"Babe, did you go out to see another man? Without telling me?"
Ca went puzzled. She tried to not show her frustration but no effect. ''Was it really so obvious?'' she
thought.
"Hmm, it looks like I''m being a burden now. Who would want a man that is sick and staying at home all
day doing nothing? Even my only love is going to leave me..."
Terence stressed on the "only love" part pretending to be hurt by the fact that Ca was seeing another
man. Then he looked away from Ca andid against the sofa, looking helpless and devastated.
"Hey! What are you even talking about? How could you me me for something without knowing the
details? It''s not what it looks like,"
Ca exined nervously, thinking that she was caught. Yet she didn''t know that Terence was just
teasing her.
When Terence had his suspicion confirmed, his face suddenly darkened. He replied with a deep voice,
"Oh, so you did meet some guy before youe back!"

Theplicated look on Terence''s face confused Ca. She wasn''t sure if he was really mad at her or
not, so she made herselffortable on the sofa and started telling Terence what happened before
she came back.
She gave him every details and left nothing hidden. Ca told him all about how she came across
Johnny on Marcus'' turf, also how she had been using Johnny''s power to regain connection with
Terence again.
For Ca, there was no need to hide anything from Terence. The reason why she waited till now to
confess everything was just because he didn''t really asked.
She promised all that to Johnny because she was out of options and she desperately needed to find
Terence. She would do anything she could to see him again, even making promises that were against
her will. For her, it worth the price.
"Remember when I told you that Johnny was also involved in the whole thing back in NF? This is why. I
almost forgot all about it after my return until he found me today and mentioned this to me..."
One thing she didn''t know was that Johnny considered her promise seriously when it was meant to be
perfunctory.
"How dare he im my woman?" Letting out a cold sneer, Terence clenched his fist slowly until blue
veins stood out on the back of his hand. He uttered with painful sarcasm in his voice, "A man who
doesn''t know a storm ising his way yet has the nerve to touch my woman."
Ca was looking at him with pain and love. It''s a feeling so deep that her eyes would drawn in it.
"Terence, do you trust me?"
Disturbed by her sudden move, Terence put his hand on her chin and met her eyes. He chuckled, "Why
don''t you tell me?"
Ca locked her eyes onto his and held his hand.
Looking determined, Ca whispered, "Okay, I will take that as a yes. If you trust me, why don''t you let
me handle Johnny. He colluded with Marcus to kill you! That I could never ever forgive! I wouldn''t be so
mad if he just let it be and leave. But, he came to me instead. I can''t let him get away that easily this
time with what he has done."
Diving in deep thoughts, Ca bit her lower lip. It was a blessing when she saw Terence came back
alive. The memory oh his helpless body was still so vivid, she had to wake up every night and make
sure he was beside her.
If anything unfortunate happened to him, Ca would go insane. He was her life.
"Oh my dear, risking your life is never an option I would take. I want you to stay out of this and be safe,
for me. Revenge should be handled by men. I can''t let you do this."
Holding her shoulder tightly, Terence made a promise to himself that he would never risk Ca''s safety
or let her alone, ying against a dangerous man like Johnny.
How could he?
"Listen to me, Terence. I just want to help you. I know women are weak in power but I think I am
capable on more than what you''ve imagined. I promise you that I won''t risk my life. Why don''t you just
let me be and see how it goes? I wouldn''t mind if you jump in and help when I''m in trouble tho," Ca
shared her thoughts with the angry man, lyingfortably on his chest.
"Fine. If that''s really what you want to do, then do it. How can I even stop you?" Terence was
impressed by her stubbornness, ''If she want to show her ws, then should it be, '' Terence thought to
himself. The least he could do was cing more protection just in case something might happen.
He paused for a moment and continued, "But you know what? Johnny has a great taste for women,
choosing you exactly. Pumpkin, I am so d that I made my way back to you. I don''t know what would
happen to you if I showed up a minuteter. Those horny wolves might just eat you alive."
Smiling and whispered tenderly, Terence nted a soft kiss on Ca''s silky smooth hair.
He knew that Ca''s beauty might be attractive to those men out there. With Noah being the first and
Johnny as the second, greedy and hostile, he would have lost himself if anything did happen to the one
and only love of his.
"You better carve that into your brain just in case you forget it someday. Also, if you don''t want other
men''s hands get to me, you better behave yourself and live until you''re a thousand year''s old!" Ca
faked a serious voice and gave him a fierce look. Not waiting for his next move, she got up from his
chest and asked the maid to bring the food over to the table.
When all the dishes were ced, Ca took a bowl of soup and walked back to Terence. Since there
were still some time left for the drip to finish, she fed him patiently.
Lyingfortably on the sofa, Terence looked at the woman who was feeding him with his eyes full of
love.
Joy consumed him and he could just die right now without any regret. Right in her arms.
