Chapter 250 The Restless Terence (1/2)

Johnny sent so many people to look for Carla but he still failed. He was wondering whether or not she could come back safely on her own.

Carla paused and turned slightly to look at the emerald lake then answered, ”Grandpa Nicholas sent his men to find me.”

She hid the fact that Terence was the one who found her to protect him.

Terence was Nicholas's favorite grandchild and Carla was Terence's girlfriend. It was only natural for Nicholas to protect her after Terence's death. The whole thing totally made sense to everyone.

Carla glanced at the river bank and saw two boats sailing after them.

Terence arranged some bodyguards and they were waiting on both the bank and the boats to protect her anytime if she needed them.

Johnny bought what Carla said, that Nicholas was the one who sent people to save her. It was no wonder that she came back that quickly.

However, he was a little unhappy that she was still close to the people in the An Family. He frowned and asked her, ”Are you still constantly in touch with the An Family?”

”Yes. Grandpa Nicholas was hoping that Terence would marry me. He told me that I am like one of his grandchildren already. He promised me that he would always protect me. Grandpa Nicholas also said that even though Terence already passed away, he would still take care of me like I am his own grandchild.”

She answered while she glanced at Johnny. Johnny then curled his lips and said, ”I don't think it's the right thing to do. Terence isn't here anymore. You have no right to keep on being involved with that family. Unless you don't want to get married for the rest of your life just to show your loyalty to Terence.

Carla, I love you. Please be with me. I'll do everything to protect you for the rest of my life.”

Johnny confessed his love to Carla. He moved closer to her and suddenly took her hand.

However, Carla immediately shook him off as if it was an insect that touched her hand. She refused him and said, ”No way, Johnny. You think that after all the things that you've done to me that there would still be a chance that I would love you? You should just forget about it because it's never going to happen!”

Seeing that she hated him so much, Johnny got really upset. His lips trembled lightly while he defended himself, ”I am not the one who killed Terence! I'm not the one that you should hate.”

However, he only met a snort of suspicion and disdain from Carla. Johnny was lucky that the boat they were on didn't have oars. Otherwise, she would have smacked him with it using all her might to vent her anger.

”Johnny, do you know how to swim?”
