Chapter 248 Ask Her Out (1/2)

Terence had a sullen look on his face. How could he pretend otherwise? Johnny was putting the moves on his woman right in front of his face.

”Afternoon? Sorry, I can't. I'm not available,”

Carla replied almost instantly. She wanted to make it very obvious that she didn't want to go out with him.

”Really? Well, where are you now? I can come by to see you,” Johnny asked, determined not to give up.

Johnny was different from Noah. Noah was always gentle. And he'd never rush her or be so blunt.

But Johnny was the opposite and he could be too curt.

Terence, who sat beside her, had closed his fists into a tight ball. The veins under his skin threatened to pop out. He might be silent but he was loud with rage.

Carla wanted to take the call off the speakerphone but Terence would get even angrier. She had to keep it on.

”Johnny, I'm not in the mood to go out,” Carla reasoned and followed it with a forced cough.

This man was shameless! First, he and Marcus conspired to set up Terence. And now, he wanted to pursue Carla. How despicable!

”You can't avoid me forever, Carla, I'll wait for you at Otter Bay in the afternoon. If you don't show up, you know what's gonna happen.”

Johnny hung up the phone before she could reply.

”What? Johnny! What do you mean, Johnny?” Carla shouted over the phone.

”Carla! Forget about him,” Terence reassured her. He took Carla into his arms and wrapped her in an embrace. He used his finger to lift her chin and said, ”He's using Sean to threaten you. I'm not going to let that happen.”

Sean was her only weakness, Terence knew that.

Carla opened her mouth to speak but Terence held his finger against her lips.

”You're not going to see him, Carla. I've sent my best men to look for your brother. And once he's under my men's protection, nobody can touch him. Johnny will definitely try. And it's going to end real ugly for him,”

Terence snarled. Did these people really think he was dead? How dare Johnny! How could he say something like that to Carla?

All he wanted to do right now was tear Johnny into pieces.
