Chapter 409 Terence''s Anecdote


    Ca was wiping the car. Her beautiful short hair was bouncing naughtily apanied by her brilliant


    smile.


    Terence stared at the energetic woman before him and instantly felt his world brighten up. She was


    radiating so beautifully, making the air around them cozy and serene.


    His lips gradually cracked into a slight smile as his heart flooded with so much warmth.


    He just couldn''t help but imagine his future with her, pleasant and sweet. He just loved her so much.


    He was certainly willing to do everything to live a happy life with her.


    "Miss Ca, you don''t need to do this! You are our mistress now. Cleaning the car is not even my job,


    and it definitely isn''t yours!" Rainer tried to stop Ca from cleaning the car any further.


    But Ca just scrunched her nose and said, "Rainer, do you really think I''m such a pampered person?"


    She then continued to wipe the dusty part of the car with a piece of cloth. After making sure that the


    spot was clean, she turned around only to see Terence staring contentedly at her.


    She trudged towards him and Rainer rushed to grab the cloth from Ca''s hand.


    It was then that Terence voiced out, "Maybe you were not pampered before but things are different


    around here. You will not just be pampered, you are also the most precious woman in JA City now."


    Dotingly, he took her hand and held it in his. He added, "So, don''t do the dirty and tiring jobs anymore.


    They will roughen your hands."


    Stepping closer, Ca hugged his waist and looked at him. She frowned andined, "Why are


    you scolding me?"


    "All right, Ca. I''ll stop. But don''t forget that you''re going to try your wedding dress on today. Let''s get


    out of here, okay?" reminded Terence in an amused tone whilebing her short hair.


    Rainer, who had finished cleaning the car when Ca and Terence were talking, immediately opened


    the door and let them in the car.


    Shortly after, they arrived at the wedding dress shop.


    This was the top wedding dress shop in JA City, which was famous for its premier service.


    It was famous for its custom-made designs and was the most sought after when it came to wedding


    dresses. Each wedding dress was a masterpiece. Moreover, the ce was also famous for catering to


    just one couple per day.


    Terence had arranged for someone to design Ca''s wedding dress a few days before, so all they


    needed to do now was to measure her size. Ca wasn''t even worried about the design of her gown.


    Knowing Terence, he had already picked the best for her.


    There were already some news going around the city that their wedding wouldst for three days. That


    didn''t even include the previous subsidiary banquet.


    She was also aware that the An family would be inviting different people, probably from all over the


    world, during these three days.


    From what she heard, the first day would be for the top clients who had been working with the AJ


    Group for a long time. For close rtives who had regr interaction with the An family, the second


    day was solely reserved for them. The third day, which was also thest day would be for distant


    rtives and acquaintances.


    In addition to the wedding dress, Ca also needed to order nine more dresses since she was


    supposed to change every morning, afternoon, and evening. Repetition should be avoided since that


    would be very bad for their image.


    Ca had no choice but to agree to all these since she was to marry the grandson of the An family. She


    was now bound to abide by their rules as one of the family.


    It was just now that she finally understood why Terence arranged the whole day to choose her dresses.


    She was too naive to think that they would only spend their morning in that shop.


    However, what Terence needed to do was also not less than Ca''s duties.


    Terence, on the other hand, needed to check his suits and make sure that his clothes would match


    hers. Thus, the designers had to customize both their clothes at the same time.


    It was already dark when they came out of the store and Ca knew that her ordeal had just begun.


    Thinking about it, she thought that she should grab the opportunity to psychologically prepare herself.


    She was now encountering theplications far more than she could imagine, just because the one


    she was going to marry was from the An family.


    After getting into the car, Terence watched this womanzily lying on hisp. She was obviously


    exhausted and didn''t want to move. Carefully, he caressed her short hair.


    "Are you tired?" he asked in a gentle tone.


    Cay on hisp and looked up at him. "It''s okay. Umm... Terence, will there be many people


    attending our wedding ceremony?"


    "Of course, there will be a lot of people. Invitation cards have been sent out, and everyone rted to


    the An family is expected to attend, whether they''re here at home or abroad. So yes, there will surely


    be a whole lot of people," Terence exined.


    Getting married was considered as one of the most important events within the An family, especially for


    Terence.


    His wedding will have an effect in different levels of society, which were all out of Ca''s grasp.


    In addition, the An family was a noble family that had their own tradition, making their weddings much


    moreplicated and extravagant than anything done by ordinary families.


    The more she thought of it, Ca began to get nervous. She was a little unustomed to having a lot


    of people watching at her. She could just imagine how her wedding day would be. A nightmare.


    For sure, she would melt into a puddle while walking down the aisle.

    "You will get used to these things in the long run. As the An family''s daughter-inw, you will have to


    attend all kinds of banquets and face all kinds of people. Once you get yourselffortable with it, you


    will realize how other people''s opinion of you are not important at all," Terence said, giving her a


    shoulder rub.


    Actually, he understood Ca''s every reaction since he had been there before. He had long been


    ustomed to all kinds of people casting him judging looks since he was in a position everyone would


    want to look at.


    Therefore, he thought Ca just needed time to get used to this lifestyle. And gradually, it would also


    be normal to her.


    "What about you?" Ca got up from hisp and asked curiously. "Have you ever been nervous when


    facing so many people? Have you ever made a fool of yourself?"


    Terence thought for a short while and then shook his head. "No, because I''ve been used to receiving


    other people''s opinions about me since I was a child. There have always been many people around


    me. Whether I knew them or not, they would all rush to appear in front of me.


    Those things helped me get used to getting so much attention."


    Hearing his words, Ca asked again, "So have you ever lost yourposure before many people? Or


    have you ever gotten mad at someone in public?"


    Terence became silent, thinking about her question.


    Suddenly, Rainer, who was driving, opened his mouth.


    "Mr. Terence, do you still remember that time? It was your birthday. There were a lot of peopleing


    to attend the party. And Mr. Theo said that he had prepared a big surprise for you, and then he took


    you to a dark room…"


    Rainer burst intoughter even before he could finish.


    The scene was just too funny as he remembered it.


    However, he swallowed hisughs when he looked up and saw Terence ring at him through the


    rearview mirror. He immediately shut up.


    "Why did you stop talking? Rainer,e on! Keep going! What was in that dark room?"


    Ca was listening carefully and Rainer''s sudden shutting up made her curiosity burn inside her more.


    "Umm.. Mr. Terence, I think it''s okay to tell Ms. Ca, right?" Rainer asked with a grin.


    Terence did not answer Rainer and just turned his sight elsewhere. He couldn''t help but think, ''Damn it!


    Theo! What a foolish thing you did!''


    "Terence, just tell me, okay? What was Theo''s surprise for you?" Now Ca was even more curious.


    She had gotten bored in the car as they were driving to a restaurant for dinner.


    Thus, she couldn''t stop herself from wanting to know what funny thing happened to Terence! She badly


    wanted to hear this anecdote!


    "Nothing. Do you think Theo would prepare something valuable for me?" Terence hummed, not


    intending to continue this topic.


    Ca gave Terence a nce, knowing that she couldn''t get any answer from him. Then she leaned


    forward, getting closer to Rainer. "Hey, since it is you who made me so curious, you are responsible for


    telling me the whole story! If you don''t tell me now, I''ll keep asking you about this thing every time I see


    you!"


    Ca threatened.


    ''Ah... no. Sorry but I''m more afraid of Mr. Terence''s punishment," refused Rainer while shaking his


    head.


    "He wouldn''t dare get back at you whenever I am with him. If he threatens you,e to me and I''ll


    protect you," Ca vouched.


    Rainer nced at Terence who didn''t speak, and then he posed, "Well, Miss Ca! Since it''s you who


    are forcing me to say it, you should promise me that you won''t mind hearing the whole story. This story


    was already ten years old anyway, so it''s quite old."


    "Well, stop beating around the bush. Tell it to me now!" Ca urged.


    Rainer couldn''t help butugh upon remembering what happened.


    Then, he began to tell the whole thing to Ca. "That year, Mr. Terence was only seventeen years old.


    Many people came to celebrate his birthday.


    And Mr. Theo said that he had prepared a special gift for Terence, so he took Terence to a dark room


    with the lights off.


    Unexpectedly, when Mr. Terence entered that room, Mr. Theo immediately locked the door from


    outside."


    Rainer paused for a moment and then checked on Ca through the rearview mirror.


    He chuckled upon seeing Ca''s impatient stare. More so, she shrugged her shoulders and shouted,


    "What! Go on! Please! What was in the room? Was it scary? What was in it!"


    "Okay! Okay! I''ll continue!


    When Mr. Terence entered that room, the lights turned on. Mr. Theo particrly selected six


    supermodels and these models were dancing in bikinis when Mr. Terence came in…"


    Rainer burst intoughter again.


    He nced at Terence who was still frowning. Truth be told, that story had been the funniest thing for


    him and he couldn''t stop bursting intoughter every time.


    Ca felt a bit impatient with what she just heard. Her eyes had widened when she asked, "And then?"
