Chapter 324 First Fight For Her Love
Ca''s heartbeat doubled upon seeing Noah walked towards her. Subconsciously, she stepped back a
little.
"Ca, are you telling me that my fiancee is far less important than my friend?" Noah asked.
Seeing Noah''s dimmed face made Ca step back again. She then shook her head and stuttered, "No,
I didn''t mean that. I mean... What I''m trying to say is that I will try to avoid having conflicts with your
friends from now on.
Noah, please don''t..."
This was the first time she feared Noah. She had always thought that men who were not easily
angered had tendencies to be scarier than ordinary once they did.
Thus, she couldn''t tell if Noah would lose his control and resort to hurting her at the moment. As if it
had a mind of its own, one of her arms moved by itself covering her face to protect herself.
However, Noah just shrugged upon seeing her reaction and grabbed her arm. "Ca, do know how
much I''m ming myself for hurting you today?
I hate myself for not protecting you! You are my fiancee but I let you get hurt!

I was so used to being alone and I honestly don''t have any clue in taking care of a woman," Noah
shouted while gritting his teeth.
Over the past years, all he did was to people who would do him favors.
Putting his interest first whenever he faced something had been one of his habits.
Trina, as for a good example, was an influential artist who had helped him with his business in more
ways than one.
It was that bad habit that took the best of him earlier. Thus, he lost his control. There was that faint
voice inside his head earlier that was telling him not to make conflicts with Trina because he needed
her, for business.
"I''ll do my best to change myself little by little. Forgive me this time, Ca, please."
Noah''s voice became gentle as he tried to pull Ca closer to him.
What happened a while ago made him realize a lot of things.
He was fighting for Ca''s love against Terence and it was more than obvious that he had lost this
round.
Nheless, he promised himself to win next time.
Ca felt her heart quivered. She bowed her head, blinked her eyes, and then took a deep breath. She
reminded herself to stay acting naturally and said, "There''s no need to change yourself for me, Noah.
Really! It is clear to us that our engagement is just our father''s wish before he died. It''s just a ceremony.
You don''t need to take it seriously. It''s okay to be yourself, Noah. It''s not your responsibility to change
for me."
Noah''s grasp on her arm suddenly tightened. His face grew dimmer when he stared at her.
It took him some seconds to finally opened his mouth again. "Are you eager to leave me and go back
to Terence?
Maybe you are right. I am not good enough. He can do a lot of things that I can''t. I can''t do anything
withoutmitting mistakes, so you would just get hurt over and over just like what happened today.
I''m sure that you are ming me silently, Ca..." Noah''s voice faded.
He finally let go of her arm and then without any ado, turned away dejectedly.
A bitter smile cracked his lips.
He thought, ''Is this my karma?
I have been hurting her since we first met.
How did I grow so dumb that I hoped for her to love me without any rules or defense? I''m outright not
qualified for her...''
Regret instantly flooded Ca upon seeing Noah''s reaction. She wanted to take her words back but it
was toote. She shouldn''t have talked about their fake engagement that deliberately. She just wanted
to tease him.
It was just that she still couldn''t forget how Trina had looked down on her.
However, making Noah this sad resonated in her too. She also didn''t feel happy.
Ca stayed in Noah''s house until lunch.
She hadn''t seen Noah at home since he walked out on her earlier. She didn''t even have a clue on
where he was.
It might sound bad, but the absence of Noah around gave Ca a mild sense of relief. Since Noah
wasn''t home, there was no one to stop her from going out.
Terence came to pick her up that same afternoon.
Seeing Terence walking towards her immediately brightened her mood.
She was even beaming when she looked up at Terence as he fastened her seat belt.
"Where are we going?"
"I''ll take you for a ride," Terence replied. He then sat downfortably next to her and ced one of
his arms around her shoulders. He pulled her closer to him until she was gently pressing against his
body. He continued, "You know, HA City doesn''t have a lot of good ces, but the scenery along the
way is good.
I''ll go back to JA City tonight and I don''t know when I will be back here again. The only thing you need
to do while I''m away is to take good care of yourself, more so, your leg. Rx and don''t think too much,
okay?"
He gently pinched her nose.
"Okay, I know," said Ca as she buried her face against his arms. "I also want my leg to recover soon.
It''s really troublesome to carry a cane everywhere."
Being half immobile was depressing. She was like a wingless bird! She really didn''t like what she was
feeling at all.
"It will take time. You will get better. Don''t be in such a hurry," said Terence. He then gazed at the
woman in his arms and gently caressed her eyebrows. "Try your best to stay in the Hua family. Stay
close to Andrea as much as possible. I''ll be worried about you if you''ll stay living with Noah alone."
Terence thought that it would be best for Ca to live with the Hua family than with Noah. Noah
wouldn''t have the chance to hurt Ca while Andrea was around.
"Yes." Ca nodded.
However, she didn''t pay much attention to what he said since she believed that Noah wouldn''t do
anything excessive to her.
After a while, their car stopped at awn on the bank of the river.
Rainer leaped out of the driver seat andid a thick nket on thewn. He then ced drinks and
fruits on it, and then stood aside.
Ever so carefully, Terence lifted Ca to his chest and put her down on the nket. It was windy there,
so he took a thin nket and covered it on her legs. He then sat down next to her and handed her a
cup of hot drink to make herfortable.
Ca leaned in his arms and looked at the quiet river not far away.
The willow trees standing grandiosely next to the river were proud of their beauty. Sometimes the wind
made some willow leaves fall on the river, rippling upyers of ripples.
They didn''t go to other ces that day and just spent a quiet afternoon next to each other.
Terence sent her back to the Hua family before he left HA City.
He decided not to send her back to Noah''s house. He knew that Noah would definitely figure out who
Ca was with the whole afternoon even if she wouldn''t say a thing.
Moreover, he never wanted to hide anything. He was her man in the first ce. He got all the rights in
the world to date her woman anytime and anywhere.
Terence''s judgment about this was right. Noah indeed knew that Ca was with him the whole
afternoon.
HA City was Noah''s territory. He knew everything going on in his ce like it was the back of his hand.
Noah was having dinner with his clients that evening when he received some pictures from his
subordinates.
They were photos of Ca and Terence, leaning on each other romantically. He was instantly at rage
upon seeing the pictures that he almost broke his phone.
How could Terence be so bold to date his fiancee within his territory?
Noah could only guess how embarrassing it would be for him if these pictures were publicized!
The anger and pain made him drink a lot that night. He didn''t drive home after that and decided to go to
the Hua family instead.
Meanwhile, Ca was in a good mood at that time.
She was so worried that Terence might be angry at her before. However, he came today and stayed
with her to reassure that things were okay. She was more than relief.
She was lying on her bed while reading a book.
She wasfortable and beginning to enjoy the romantic novel in her hands when she heard someone
knocking on the door.
She heard the door opened shortly.
Since it wasn''tte-night yet, Ca hadn''t really thought of locking her bedroom.
Lazily, she turned to the door and was taken aback by what she saw.
It was Noah, who was looking a bit out of himself while staring at her. Thus, she asked, "Noah, are
you... are you drunk?"
