Chapter 861 They Had A Fight (1/2)

”Yes, Mr. Terence,”

Nathan replied and immediately turned around to pass on his orders.

”Wait!”

Carla stopped Nathan. She continued to face Terence while speaking to Terence, ”Nathan, please stop the boat. I want to go ashore!”

”What?”

Nathan looked at Carla awkwardly and then at Terence. ”Mrs. An, Yu Sea City is a special area. We will need a pass to dock, and we didn't prepare for one before coming...”

”Really? Can't we just apply for one from here?” asked Carla, turning back to look at him.

She thought there might be a special procedure to follow in times like this. Since they had come all the way, she thought it was best to push a little and do whatever was needed to make it happen.

Nathan looked at Terence again, implying that he was the only one who could do something about Carla's request.

With Terence's status, he could make a phone call with a government official and they could go through without a pass.

That was the only way to make this happen.

Carla looked at Terence expectantly but the truth was Terence didn't want her to go there.

”Well, honey. I'm not God. My reach in only limited to JA City, I can't get you ashore without a pass,” Terence said, shrugging his shoulders. He looked into Carla's dark eyes. He didn't like lying to her but he had to this time, since Carla had a tendency to get into trouble every now and then. Sometimes, he wondered how she could be so reckless as a grown woman.

”Then let's figure it out after we disembark. As the saying goes, you can only cross the bridge when you get to it. I mean it really doesn't hurt to have a look,”

Carla said, while looking up at Terence with one of her eyebrows raised. Carla wasn't someone who got convinced against her desires easily.

”Oh, honey. You are too optimistic! Yu Sea City is quite a violent society, and the people there have some really weird customs. For the sake of your own safety, let's just leave!”

said Terence, trying to talk Carla out of her wish patiently.

”Well, what if I insist on going?” said Carla, taking a step forward and looking up at him since he was much taller than her. Every time they talked, she would end up with a sore neck. Usually, he would either sit down or she would stand up on something. But this time he made no such effort.

Soon, Carla got tired of straining her neck.

”You can't. Nobody dares to go ashore unless I allow them,” Terence spoke calmly, without sounding too authoritative.
