Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 598 An Island For You

When Carla heard what her husband had just said, she couldn't help but chuckle. With a wide smile,

she asked, "You miss me? So am I your puppet, dear husband? I have to run over to meet you

whenever you miss me, is that right? What if I don't miss you and I don't want to come to you?"

"Well, I'll just come get you right now if you don't want to come,"

Terence threatened her in a low voice. He too, chuckled a little because he knew well enough that he

got endless ways to make her come to him.

"Fine, come and get me. Do you even know where I am right now?" At this moment, Carla was already

on her way back to the Seaview Villa but they were stuck in heavy traffic. It was going to take a while

before they could reach any destination.

"You're currently on the Feng He Road, waiting for the traffic light to turn green. But there is some traffic

jam so it'll take you ten minutes to get through," Terence stated with a gentle smile on his face while he

was looking at her location on his phone.

Carla froze when she heard what Terence had just said. She looked outside the car window and saw

the blue road sign indicating that they were in fact, on Feng He Road.

"Are you following me?" Carla immediately asked as she suspiciously looked at their surroundings. She

was so surprised by how accurate Terence knew their location.

"Oh, babe, you don't know, do you? Every car in our house has a GPS tracker."

The trackers were installed long ago so Terence could find any of the cars in the house if they ever got

stolen.

He then continued, "Tell the driver to turn around in the next intersection. A few meters from there is a

shortcut to the company."

Now that Carla knew Terence could see their exact location, Carla curled her lips and relayed to the

driver what Terence had stated.

In about 20 minutes, Carla arrived at the entrance of the company.

Sally had been sleeping since the moment they got into the car. So with so much effort, Carla held the

little girl in her arms as she got out of the vehicle. However, she immediately saw a person's strong

arms reaching out to hold Sally. Obviously, Terence had been waiting for her.

"I thought you were busy. Don't you have work to do?"

Carla asked Terence as she got out of the car herself.

Before he responded, Terence turned to Nathan and transferred Sally into his arms. He then took off

his coat and placed it over her in case she caught a cold.

"Eh, I'm not busy at the moment.

Come on, let me show you something."

On their way to his office, Terence asked Nathan to take Sally in his office so that the little girl could

sleep soundly. Then, he led Carla into the design room at the end of the corridor.

"Come on, have a look," Terence beamed with a huge smile on his face. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Carla walked a little closer, looking at the draft which covered half of the wall.

"Is... Is this BT Village?" Carla stuttered. She couldn't believe what was in front of her.

"Yeah, this map covers about 20 miles around the village." Terence gently said while he embraced her

from behind. "This is just a preliminary draft, so it's going to take at least a year to finish the design

before construction could start."

"And right here, I'm going to buy this island and develop it." Terence pointed at a spot on the map.

Carla stared at him. She then laughed while she asked, "Why would you buy the whole island?

You have too much money to spare?"

Terence flicked her forehead as he grinned widely. "Well, if you say so. I want to name the place, 'Carla

Island'. It's my gift to you."

Carla's heart was beating very fast. She was stunned. After being with Terence for so long, she knew

that Terence had an inkling for grand gestures so she couldn't imagine that the man could still surprise

her but he just did.

She couldn't help but reach out and feel his forehead. "Are you okay? Do you feel feverish or

something? What are you talking about? Why do you want to give me an island?

If you really have too much money, let's just give it to charity."

"You don't have to worry about that. We have our own charity foundation." Terence pulled Carla closer

to him by her waist. Then, he lifted her chin so she could look at him. With that, he could finally gaze at

her affectionately.

"I want to build a private island for you, which would have anything you like, flowers, grass, me and

you."

Looking up and staring at his beautiful eyes, Carla's eyes were brimming with tears.

"Honey," she softly stated.

"Yes?" Terence responded.

"Are you serious?"

"Of course!"

"Since you're giving me an island, I feel like I have to give you something in return."

Carla's eyes twinkled brightly. She couldn't help but feel so overwhelmed for receiving such a wonderful

and extravagant gift.

"You are my wife, so I'll do everything for you. I know it's a cliché but even if you want the stars, I'll

definitely try my best to get you one. And you know me, you know that I'm really going to do it for you."

Gazing at Carla's serious face, Terence couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"No, just let me think about it. I'll definitely give you something extravagant as well."

Carla tried to think really hard what she could give to Terence.

"If you really want to, just give me a kiss." Terence was also trying to think of something that could

make her accept the gift without having an ounce of guilt.

"No, that wouldn't be enough... "

But the thing was, it had not always been easy to convince Carla once she had decided on things.

And this time, she was determined to give him something in return, even though he was her husband.

"Well, if you really want to give me a gift, it must be something that I want, right?" Terence asked after

contemplating about it for a moment.

Carla's eyes glistened when she heard what he had just said, so she nodded immediately. "Of course.

Tell me what you want."

"I want... "

Looking at Carla's sincere eyes, a menacing smile slipped into Terence's face. With a little rush, he

took a piece of paper and a pen from the table. Immediately, he started writing down several things.

"What's that?"

Carla asked. She was a little confused when she saw that Terence was writing out some random

things.

"What are those? Cable car? Beach? Roof? I don't understand." Carla mumbled.

Terence suddenly took her hand and pulled her over. He then made her press her finger on the ink pad

and helped her create a red fingerprint on the paper. Then, he wiped her hand clean with a tissue.

"You don't need to understand now, you'll know when I need it."

Terence mysteriously said as he gently blew on the ink on the paper. Then, he folded it neatly and

carefully placed it in his wallet.

Obviously, Carla was so innocent that she didn't even know what was going on.

"By the way, Babe, I'm going on a business trip the day after tomorrow. Come with me?"

Terence put away his wallet and continued, "Oh, also by the way, there's no room for discussion

because you have no choice."

Carla was stunned for a few seconds so it took her a moment before she could respond. "What? So

why did you bother to ask me if I had no choice on the matter?"

Carla pouted in anger.

"I just wanted to give you a heads up so you'd be ready in time." Terence gazed at her with a smile and

placed his arms around her waist.

"Babe, why don't we let Nathan take Sally home tonight, so we can go for a ride?" However, as soon as

Terence finished talking, the door was pushed open and a high-pitched voice was heard.

"Daddy! Mommy!"

Sally came rushing into the room and stopped in front of her parents.

"Daddy, I don't want to go home. I want to go for a ride with Mommy."

Sally had already woken up in the office a few moments ago and rushed to find her parents. Now, she

was staring at Terence out of discontent.

Terence laughed, looking at his lovely daughter and lifting her into his arms. "Alright, let's go for a ride."

"Yes! Daddy is the best!"

Sally immediately turned to look at Terence and kissed him on the cheek.

"Dad, what are we riding? Horses?

But I didn't bring any riding suit with me. Should I go home and change my clothes?"

As she spoke, Sally worriedly touched her lovely dress which was not even close to a riding suit at all.

Carla was amused by her daughter's reaction, so she laughed.

"Don't worry, sweetheart. Mommy has brought one for you."

Carla didn't hurry to explain what ride truly meant as she tried to comfort her lovely daughter.

Sally was relieved and couldn't help but giggle. She then exclaimed, "Alright. But Mom, it's getting dark.

Could the horses see in the dark?"

"Well, we'll see then," Carla gently replied.

Looking at his wife and his little girl talking innocently, Terence could not help but grin from ear to ear.

He was just supposed to take Carla to watch the night view and enjoy some private time together.

But now he could only sigh and ask Nathan to drive the sports car over.
