Chapter 349 I Don’t Believe You


    Noahughed hard and looked away. He focused his eyes on the road ahead and then said in a low


    voice, "I don''t trust you, Ca."


    Caught unguarded, Ca bit her bottom lip for a second and cleared her throat. She badly needed to


    rebut. Thus, she answered, "The feeling is mutual."


    She quickly turned away from Noah and didn''t dare to look at him anymore.


    Noah''sughter went louder with what she said. He gave her a glimpse and added, "I don''t trust you.


    Just like now. I don''t believe that you are not here for him. It''s just that I can''t turn you down.


    And do you know what''s worse?


    Although I know that I can''t trust you, I can''t control my heart from believing you. Uncertain trust is


    dangerous."


    Ca was speechless for a second. Blinking her eyes, she smiled and asked, "So you''re saying that


    you''re still believing me, right?"


    Her eyes were clear and gorgeous. Thus, Noah couldn''t help but look at her one more time. He


    withdrew one of his hands from the steering wheel and then held her hand. He replied in a tender


    voice, "I don''t care about what happened in the past. I love you now. That''s the only thing I''m certain


    about."


    It was the basic reason why he could tolerate all her behaviors.


    Lifting the corners of her lips, Ca didn''t say anything. She discreetly pulled her hand from Noah''s


    hold instead and then looked out of the car''s window. Lost in her thoughts, she unconsciously held her


    chin.


    She was smiling with her eyes glimmering. However, only she knew that she wasn''t happy at all.


    She might have Noah''s love but she didn''t love Noah the same way.


    Love was always a selfish thing anyway. She could just sense that she and Noah were heading for a


    tragedy.


    The scenery outside the car was passing by like a panorama. It was about an hourter that they


    reached HA City.


    Meanwhile, in JA City, Terence just sent Rena home.


    However, Rena wouldn''t let go of Terence.


    She had him locked inside her arms as if someone would steal him any time.


    "Shall we visit your house, Terence?"


    Hearing the woman, Terence patted her shoulder tofort her. He then replied, "It''s toote. You


    need to get inside now or your parents would get worried."


    Displeased with his answer, Rena lowered her sight,nding on Terence''s lips. She requested in a timid


    voice, "Fine. Kiss me and I''ll leave."


    Terence furrowed his eyebrows slightly. It was good that no one noticed how his expression changed


    for a while. Then, as if obliged, he lowered his head and kissed Rena on her forehead. "Done. Go


    home now."


    "No! Not on the forehead. Here!"


    Rena protested and pointed to her lips. She was clearly dissatisfied with what Terence did. It was


    obvious that she wouldn''t get out of the car unless he did what she wanted.


    "Ahem." Rainer broke the embarrassing moment by faking a cough. He checked the time and then


    reminded, "You promised Mr. Nichs that you would visit him this evening, Mr. Terence."


    Left with no choice, Rena slowly removed her arms around Terence and opened the car door


    sluggishly. She wasn''t happy at all. She couldn''t even believe how this night ended up. "I''ll text you


    "Sure. Goodnight." After Terence said goodbye to Rena, who had gotten out of the car, Rainer


    immediately drove the car away.


    A deep sigh escaped Terence''s chest as soon as Rena was out of sight. Thank goodness that he didn''t


    need to pretend anymore. He suddenly looked drained.


    Noticing that, Rainer passed a towel to him. Terence quickly grabbed the towel and wiped his lips hard.


    His fingers were gripping the towel hard as if he was dumping all his frustrations on it.


    "Mr. Terence, should I send the painting to Mr. Nichs now?" asked Rainer. It was toote to interrupt


    Nichs, who must be sleeping already by that time. The only reason why he had said they would visit


    the old man was to give Terence an excuse to leave as soon as possible.


    Terence just coldly looked at Rainer upon hearing him. He was clearly annoyed.


    Rainer didn''t dare talk anymore and chose to shut his mouth.


    "You know what, Rainer? The Seaview Vi gets this perfect ce for the painting. How about we put


    the painting there temporarily? We can just wait for the right time to send itter?"


    said Nathan as he tried to lighten the ambiance inside the car.


    "Yeah. You are right,"


    Rainer answered while wiping the sweat off his forehead. He could still remember how Ca bid for the


    painting. It was the reason why Terence went all out in the auction. It was clear that Terence only


    wanted the painting because Ca loved it. He took it because he wanted to show her how he would


    give it to another woman. However, it was more than obvious now that he couldn''t betray Ca at all.


    He didn''t even let Rena touch the painting once.


    On the other hand, Nathan already knew all about it before. That was why he couldn''t help but roll his


    eyes when he heard Rainer ask about the painting earlier. He just couldn''t believe how stupid Rainer


    was sometimes.


    Terence took a shower as soon as they arrived at the Seaview Vi.


    There were a couple of new messages on his phone when he stepped out of the bathroom.


    Most of them were from Rena. It even included two selfies of her in nothing but a bath towel. Along with


    the pictures were pink hearts and a good night message.


    Terence immediately deleted the selfies without any hesitation. Wiping his hair, he sat down on the


    couch and opened another message.


    "Could you give me half a year please?"


    It was from Ca. Terence froze for a while as he couldn''t move his eyes away from his phone screen.


    Eventually, he replied with two words, "No way."


    At HA City, Ca just arrived home.


    She had taken a shower and was lying on her stomach on the bed. She was thinking about what


    Terence had said earlier. She couldn''t sleep.


    Although she was certain that her thoughts were unlikely to happen, she still couldn''t stop worrying


    about it. What would she do if it did?


    It was then that a message arrived on her phone. She picked it up and saw Terrence''s reply.


    Frustrated about what she read, she decided to persuade him. However, texting him would take a lot of


    time. Thus, she dialed his number instead.


    She realized that her number was still on his cklist. She couldn''t get through the line at all.


    "Terence, there must be other solutions, right?"


    Ca texted him again. She was stuck staring at her phone for a while as she waited for his reply.


    However, the phone didn''t receive anything anymore.


    Three hourster, Ca was already pissed off. She threw her phone away and then went straight to


    sleep.


    She woke up with dark shadows around her eyes the next day.


    Needless to say, she didn''t sleep well at all.


    Noah was waiting for her downstairs. He had nned to eat breakfast with her and go to thepany


    with herter.


    On the way to thepany, Ca fell asleep. Thinking about Terence marrying another woman


    tortured her too much. She couldn''t even keep her eyes closedst night.


    Nheless, it was clear to her that she should undo her engagement with Noah first. More so, she


    had to be sure that the Hua Group wouldn''t suffer from her decision at any cost.


    She forced herself to calm down at the moment as she needed to think of a resolution.


    She couldn''t afford to lose Terence in her life. Otherwise, she would hate herself forever.


    But then, the most urgent thing to her now was to earn Noah''s trust.


    The man''s trust was essential to her n.


    She just couldn''t do what she needed to without him.


    The world was unfair. Noah used her first. Hence, Ca didn''t feel bad about her n at all.


    They were already at the underground parking lot of the Hua Group when Ca woke up. The moment


    she opened her eyes, she noticed her head leaning against Noah''s shoulder.


    Moreover, Noah didn''t wake her up and just let her sleep beside him.


    "Are you awake? Let''s go. We''re alreadyte for ten minutes,"


    said Noah upon feeling her move.


    "What? Oh, God! Why didn''t you wake me up? It''s my second day for work but I''mte. This doesn''t


    look right!" Ca rubbed her hair in a hurry upon hearing Noah. She grabbed her bag in a hurry and


    then got out of the car.


    She hadn''t revealed her real identity yet as the legal heir of the Hua Group. Thus, her colleagues only


    knew her as a regr employee. She was scolded by her leader that day for beingte.


    She went to the restroom and washed her face with cold water right aftering out of her leader''s


    office.


    Then she raised her head and looked at herself in the mirror.


    "You are very gutsy. It''s your second day here and you dare to bete. The rest of us have even


    considereding to work an hour earlier. How dare you bete?


    What? Are you looking down upon your job? If you are so outstanding, then why don''t you go to better


    departments?


    Don''t forget that you are just from BH City, a small ce. You are lucky enough to get into the Hua


    Group. Face it."


    The person talking was Wendy, one of her colleagues. She was obviously displeased with Ca being


    Ca didn''t say anything about Wendy''s words. She got no ns of bringing more trouble to herself.


    Thus, she took a piece of tissue and silently wiped the water off her face. She then walked out of the


    restroom silently.

    Since she waste today, she worked harder to make up for the time. She almost did all the work of her


    department this morning.


    She even ended up sending water to other departments.


    It was only after she sent the water that she sat on her spot.


    However, Wendy came in and pointed to another pail of water even before Ca could rest. "Since I


    can see that you are utterly tired right now, I brought you another cushy job.


    Mr. Noah''s office is out of water. Go send it."
