Chapter 314 A Nightmare In A Luxurious Room


    Rainer inhaled deeply when he saw that Terence entered the room. Gathering his courage, he wiped


    his tears and walked over to him.


    "I''m sorry, Mr. Terence. It''s all my fault. I couldn''t persuade Miss Ca to stay. Anything that you think I


    deserve as punishment, I will dly ept!"

    Rainer stated while he pped himself on the face.


    But Terence only ignored him and instead, stared into the distance where the car disappeared. His


    eyes were downcast in a second, looking dull and colorless.


    He sighed deeply and said, "Forget it! If she insisted, I couldn''t have stopped her either way."


    After all, Andrea was her biological mother. How could Ca turn her down, especially when Andrea


    came to ask Ca in person?


    There was nothing Terence could do to stop it.


    "But, Mr. Terence, how could you possibly endure even the idea that Miss Ca is going to get


    engaged to another man?" Rainer stated and then blew his nose with a tissue and took another to wipe


    his tears.


    He felt sorry for Terence. He had been with them through their ups and downs. He was a witness of


    how they fell in love with each other.


    And just when Terence and Ca were about to have a happy ending, Noah came out of nowhere and


    ruined everything.


    "Stop crying! Act like a man!"


    Terence eximed with determination while he turned to Rainer.


    "Go and get all the information that you can about the Hua family. If Noah dares to take my wife, I''ll let


    him know what he has to lose," he then ordered Rainer.


    Giving up?


    It didn''t exist in Terence''s vocabry.


    Just as Ca said, it was just an engagement. But even if she did marry Noah, Terence was certain


    that he could win her back.


    Ca was bound to be Terence''s woman. He wouldn''t allow anybody to take her away from him. That


    was his end goal. It was what he envisioned and decided for his future and no one could change that.


    And now that Noah had stood in their way, Terence would go at any lengths to take him out.


    At his master''smand, Rainer immediately stopped weeping and nodded at him before exiting the


    room in a hurry.


    ''Right, it''s just an engagement, not a wedding. Miss Ca even epted it reluctantly in the first ce.


    Besides, Mr. Terence always gets what he wants. There was no exception.


    What a pity it would be if he gave up right now!'' Rainer thought to himself.


    Meanwhile, when Ca and Andrea arrived at HA City, it was already ten o''clock in the evening.


    But no matter howte it was, Noah was waiting at the door.


    As soon as the car pulled over, Noah stepped forward and opened the car door to greet Andrea.


    "Mother, wee home," he said with a smile.


    "You must have been waiting for a long time," Andrea greeted back.


    Noah smiled even wider then responded, "Not really. I just came out." He then turned to Ca who was


    sitting beside Andrea and his smile couldn''t get any wider. He walked to her side and opened the door


    for her.


    "Ca, wee home," Noah greeted her warmly and held the car door for her. When he saw Ca


    was reaching for her crutches, he embraced her and held her off the car.


    She forced a smile and nodded. "Thanks, Noah," she said with a tint of sadness.


    "It''s my pleasure," Noah responded. He turned to Andrea and stated, "Mother, Callie must have been


    tired after the journey. I''ll take her to the room."


    Andrea had already gotten off the car on her own. She was smiling while she looked at them and


    replied, "All right. Go ahead. I''ll have Zo prepare some food and have it brought up to you. Callie


    must be hungry." Noah nodded at her and stated, "Thanks, mother!" Then, he focused on Ca and


    walked upstairs, holding her tight in his embrace.


    It was the first time that Ca was seeing the Hua family''s mansion. The interior decoration was very


    vintage. Most of the furniture was made of luxurious wood, so the whole room smelled like it.


    Noah smelled just the same.


    When they reached upstairs, Ca saw a lot of rooms lined up in the corridor. She wondered which


    room was Bonnie''s.


    "Don''t worry, I have sent off Bonnie abroad. She won''t be back so soon," Noah said gently as if he


    knew what Ca was thinking about. Then he opened one of the bedroom doors and took her in. He


    then asked, "This is your room. Do you like it?"


    Ca took a careful look at the room. As to be expected, it was spacious and well-lit. All the sheets and


    curtains looked new. "Is this Bonnie''s old room?" she asked.


    The furniture looked new but it didn''t smell. It must have been there for a long time.


    "Of course not. Mother and father had been keeping this room especially for you. They didn''t allow


    anyone else to upy it. Every time that Bonnie asked for it, father would always turn her down,"


    Noah exined while he helped her sit on a rattan chair covered with a mat. He then ced her injured


    leg on a soft stool.


    After which, he went to pour her a ss of honey water before stating, "It''s your room now. If there''s


    anything that you don''t like, please tell me and I''ll get it changed."


    It took a while before Ca couldprehend that


    Allen and Andrea had already prepared the room for her.


    She nced around the room for a few more moments before looking back at him. She held on tightly


    to the ss of lukewarm honey water and said, "Everything''s fine. Thank you, Noah."


    Noah sat beside her on a stool and stared at her with soft eyes. "It''s nothing. For all the years that we


    have lost you, we owe you so much. Now that father''s gone, I''ll take the responsibility and make it up to


    you."


    Ca just smiled a little and took a sip of the sweet honey water. "Um...it''s delicious," she said, trying to


    avoid the subject.


    "I know you like lime honey water, so I prepared it for you." Then he pointed to the door opposite the


    room and said, "Right there is my room. If there''s anything that you need, you can just knock on my


    door or call me."


    Ca nodded at that.


    "Also, the dress for tomorrow is ready. You should try it on. If it doesn''t fit, I''ll have the tailor fix it


    tonight," he said before he stood up and opened the closet.


    From where she was sitting, Ca could see that the whole wardrobe was stocked with various


    garments.


    There were different types of luxurious dresses which would be a necessity since she would have to


    attend dinners and parties. As the daughter of the Hua family, she would need to socialize after her leg


    recovered.


    Noah hung the dress that she would wear tomorrow on a hanger for her to try on. Although Noah asked


    her to try it on so she could see if it fitted, it was impossible that it wouldn''t.


    All the dresses were precisely customized in her size. They would fit her perfectly well.


    "Okay, I know. I''ll try it onter," Ca said. She looked at the beautiful blue dress, trying hard to look a


    little happy.


    "Okay then, I''ll leave you so you can rest. Have a good night, Ca," Noah stated. He took onest


    look at her before walking outside and closing the door.


    After he left, the smile that Ca tried to put on immediately fell on the floor.


    She put the ss on the round wooden table beside her and walked around in this extravagant room.


    She felt like she was dreaming.


    But instead of a daydream, she was in a nightmare.


    What''s worse, everything had only just begun.


    Before long, Andrea walked in the room.


    "Callie,e and have some food. You haven''t eaten anything. You must be really hungry right now,"


    she smiled sweetly at Ca.


    Then, she gestured for the servant to bring in the dishes. Andrea walked towards Ca and stated,


    "Callie, look at you. You are as thin as a match. Now that you''re home, it would be mother''s personal


    mission to have you gain some weight, 20 pounds at least."


    Ca exhaled and forced a smile. Then, she eximed, "Twenty pounds!? Please don''t. I''m going to


    look like a round ball."


    "But you look better with some extra weight!" Andrea said, smiling happily. She sat down and ordered


    the servant to ce the dishes. "Come, have some food while it''s still hot. You can''t sleep well with an


    empty stomach. Tomorrow, you''ll meet a lot of people. You need to have all the energy that you could."


    Looking at the delicious dishes on the table, Ca unwillingly took up the chopsticks. She didn''t really


    have an appetite.


    Meanwhile, Andrea couldn''t help but stare at Ca who looked exactly like her younger self. Her smile


    looked like it could reach her ears. No one would be able toprehend her happiness because after


    all these years, she could finally see her daughter.


    She had been waiting for this day for twenty years. Now that her dream came true, she felt like the


    happiest woman in the world.


    However, if it was like a sweet dream to Andrea, it was more like a nightmare for Ca.


    "What''s wrong? You don''t like the dishes?"


    Andrea asked when she noticed that Ca had stopped eating.


    Ca shook her head and replied, "No, it''s delicious. It''s just... I''m not really that hungry."


    In fact, Ca could have taken more bites but with Andrea staring at her, she felt really ufortable.


    Andrea eximed immediately, "How could it be possible that you''re not hungry? You must eat


    something or you''ll get hungry at night. I insist that you should eat.


    If you feel ufortable while I''m here, I could leave."


    Ca meekly nodded.


    Andreaughed and stood up. She took onest look at Ca and finally walked towards the door.
