Chapter 304 I Want Your Life


    Ca cast a nce at Terence. Then, she raised her chin and turned to the woman who was trying to


    seduce Terence with her eyes. After looking at the women for quite some time, she turned to Terence


    and asked him deliberately, "She''s inviting you for a drink. Why aren''t you going to respond to her?"


    But Terence didn''t even look at that woman. He said with a frown, "I don''t have time for that."


    They both didn''t notice that the woman had strode over to them. "Mr. Terence, I''m Julissa Zou,


    Chairman Zou''s daughter. We have met before. Do you still remember me?" the woman then candidly


    introduced herself. She knew that Terence didn''t even take a nce at her. She felt a little upset but


    she refused to give up.


    Ca pulled at Terence clothes lightly, prompting him to greet her at least in order to show courtesy.


    Upon noticing Ca''s gesture, Terence finally looked at the woman. He raised his lips to show a small


    smile and then stated, "Miss Julissa! Yes, I remember you. But my girlfriend is not feeling well right


    now, so I need to apany her."


    "Well... In that case, I''ll just wait for you then," Julissa Zou said. The disappointment was apparent in


    her voice. She didn''t wait for them to respond and just left. But before she could do so, she made sure


    to look at Ca from head to toe, jealousy pouring out from her eyes.


    "Wow, did you notice how upset she was?" Ca said sarcastically when she saw that Julissa Zou left


    being very disappointed.


    Terence held her waist with one hand, leaned closer to her and stated, "Don''t be jealous. Sometimes,


    we just need to exchange courtesies with people who we don''t like for etiquette."


    With Terence''s identity and position, it was inevitable for him to interact with some women in public.


    What happened just now was a perfect example of basic etiquette for him.


    After a short while, Rainer came towards them and immediately bent down. He reported, "Mr. Terence,


    Mr. Rhys is inviting you over."


    "Okay, I see," Terence responded. Then he whispered to Ca, "Wait for me here. I''lle back soon."


    He turned to Rainer and said, "Rainer, stay here. Take good care of her."


    After Terence left, Ca remained in her seat for a while, feeling a little bored.


    When she finally had it, she stood up and took the crutch beside her. Then, she walked towards the


    door in front of her and said, "Rainer, let''s go outside to watch the stars!"


    Rainer immediately came to help her and they went outside together.


    "Miss Ca, slow down. Stay here and wait for me, please. I''m going to get a chair for you," Rainer


    said. He thought that it would be inconvenient for her to stand there. Since it was windy on the deck, he


    also thought of getting a coat for her.


    "Okay, thank you," Ca answered.


    Ca stood on the deck alone, watching the waves as they rolled their way towards the shore while the


    stars shining upon them. However, no matter how majestic the scenery looked, she didn''t appreciate


    them that much. Because she thought that she could also watch a scene like that at the Seaview Vi.


    What amazed her though was the faint view of the city on the other side, with its countless bright lights


    like fireflies in the sea. She felt that their reflection on the water was really magnificent.


    "What''s wrong with your leg?" a question interrupted her indulgence with the beautiful scenery.


    Ca looked back to see Johnny approaching her. He was looking at her crutch curiously.


    "I got into a car ident and became disabled," Ca answered casually.


    She then leaned on the railing with both hands as she continued to watch the night view of the city in


    the distance.


    Stunned by her words, Johnny asked, "Do you mean to say that your leg could never go back to


    normal forever? You can''t walk like normal forever?"


    "Yes, no matter what treatment I go through, I''ll just be a cripple," Ca responded quite


    straightforwardly. She then turned to Johnny who looked like was in deep thought. She then burst into


    foot."


    After considering his words for a while, Johnny said, "I know a foreign doctor who is good at


    orthopedics. I can invite him to JA City so he can take a look at your condition."


    Ca stoppedughing and then she paused for a while. She asked, "Johnny, why are you still so


    concerned about me?"


    She watched his reaction before continuing, "You should know that we are not friends. You could even


    say that we''re inpletely opposites sides right now. And we both know that it''s not going to change


    in the future. So I don''t think you need to waste your kindness on me."


    Johnny turned his back to avoid the sea breeze and lit a cigarette. Then, he looked at the vast sea and


    asked, "If your leg couldn''t be cured, do you think Terence would still marry you?"


    It was his turn to watch Ca''s reactions before continuing, "Even if he was still willing to marry you, it


    would be the biggest joke when the news about this spread out. How do you think people would react


    when they find out that the heir of the Ans married ame woman?"


    Ca didn''t how to respond to him for a while. She just wanted to tease him at first, but she didn''t


    expect that he would take her words seriously.


    She knew then that this man wasn''t funny at all.


    "I don''t need your concern," she finally said.


    In fact, she never liked it when others showed concern to her for no reason. She also didn''t like


    epting others'' help and owing others anything.


    As soon as she finished her words, she felt a little warmer than before. She looked down and found


    that Johnny had taken off his coat and put it on her shoulder.


    She was wearing a one-shoulder dress that night and the sea breeze was indeed cold. But she thought


    it was inappropriate to wear another man''s coat.


    When she was about to open her mouth to refuse Johnny, she heard a sarcastic voice behind her.


    "Mr. Terence, did you see that? I''ve already told you again and again but you didn''t believe me!" the


    voice reverberated through the deck.


    Then, with the same sarcastic tone, the person continued to say, "Now, you can see it by yourself. Your


    girlfriend is with another man! Wow, this man is so considerate! It''s so cold outside but he was still


    willing to put his coat on her!"


    Ca turned around to see Julissa Zou, who invited Terence to have a drink just then. This woman had


    her hand on Terence''s arm which looked like she just dragged Terence right there.


    Terence looked at Ca who was standing with Johnny. Ca could see that he was beginning to


    be upset.


    He took Julissa Zou''s hand off him and adjusted the wrinkled sleeve.


    And then he walked towards Ca.


    Johnny brazenly threw his cigarette butt into the sea and turned to look at Terence who wasing


    towards them. He deliberately put his hand closer to Ca which was originally on the railing.


    So it seemed like he was holding her waist.


    But the reality was that his hand was just behind Ca.


    Johnny then spoke, "Mr. Terence, you have a lot of women. How about giving her to me? I''ll pay you


    whatever you want as long as you give her to me."


    Johnny looked at Terence impassively and then turned to the woman who forced Terence in there.


    Ironically enough, Terence seemed calm when he was finally in front of them.


    However, that changed in a second when he suddenly grabbed Johnny''s shirt cor.


    He stated firmly, "I want your life as payment. Can you afford that?"


    Johnny leaned back a little but he wasn''t mad because of Terence''s statement. He responded, "Really?


    Okay, sure! I''ll give you a chance to have my life. If I win, she will belong to me. Deal?"


    Ca stared at them while she was bing more and more enraged with their conversation. She


    took off the coat and threw it to Johnny.


    She shouted, "Stop!"


    Then, she red at Johnny and said, "Johnny, I think I''ve made it clear to you. I don''t need your


    concern! I didn''t need it before! I don''t need it today! And I certainly won''t need it in the future! As for


    whom I belong to, both of you don''t have the right to make that decision for me!"


    Who she chose to be with should be by her own will. It should be her choice and her choice only.


    "Right, we both can''t make that decision for you. But can you give me a chance topete with him


    Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g


    and show you that it''s me who actually deserves you?"


    Johnny stated while he adjusted his cor, looking straight into Ca.


    "Terence, how about making a bet with me? Let''s both jump down from here. If I can swim to the other


    side faster than you, I win!" Johnny said as he turned to Terence.


    He then continued, "If I win, you need to give me a chance topete fairly with you. After all, you


    haven''t gotten married yet. I can still pursue her. Are you brave enough to make a bet with me?"


    Johnny looked at Terence with defiant eyes, waiting for his answer.
