Waiting For a Girl Like You

Moreover.

There was a man ten years younger than he was, gawking at Carla, waiting to take over his place. Terence hated that Carla had to spend half of her time in Yu Sea City. He couldn't help but feel insecure about it.

A frown creased his forehead. He knew that Steven had adopted a daughter who thought that Carla was her mother. Although Terence felt bad for the little girl, he was still annoyed about it. He didn't understand why Carla was serious and actually went through with it. He hated that Carla lost track of time and stayed in Yu Sea City longer than she was expected to.

Terence sighed loudly and dialed her number.

"Hello?" a chirpy female voice answered.

"Carla..."

Terence opened his mouth to say something but decided against it. It wasn't Carla who had answered the phone.

"Is this big Daddy? Mommy is sleeping. I'll ask her to call you back later,"

Selina said cautiously as she glanced at Carla who was fast asleep.

Terence groaned and looked out of the window. It was still dark outside. The frown on his sullen face deepened.

"Who am I speaking to?" he asked, annoyed by her response.

Although Terence knew who she was, he didn't know her name.

"Big Daddy, I'm Selina." Selina said sweetly. She had woken up early and was playing with Carla's phone.

Terence was irked by Selina who constantly called him "Big Daddy".

He hung up the phone without saying a word.

Terence wondered if Carla was up to something behind his back.

"Mr. An, what's wrong?"

Nathan asked when he saw the sudden change in Terence's mood.

"Book a flight. I need to go to Yu Sea City right away."

He needed to bring Carla and his son back. He was frustrated that his wife and son were having fun without him. How could they forget that he was waiting for them?

Nathan stifled his laughter and shook his head. A lot of things had changed in the last couple of years. Nathan's son had grown up and Rainer's wife was

and wanted to forget about everything and get some rest.

There was a soft knock at the door when she was busy going through one of the construction plans.

"Steven, thank God, you are back!" she answered without lifting her head. "Come on, we need to find out if this plan would be feasible. I'm losing my mind. God, I finally understand how difficult it is to be the head of Yu Sea City..."

Carla trailed off. A gust of cold wind brushed her hair. A shiver ran through her spine when she looked at the door.

"Terence? What are you doing here?"

She could feel the cold sweat gliding down her back.

Carla's words were still lingering in Terence's ears. The way she called Steven's name was constantly ringing in his ear.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you,"

he said coldly.

"Honey, what are you talking about? You must be tired. Come and sit here!" Carla put the documents aside, poured a cup of tea, and passed it to Terence.

"So, according to you, I'm a guest who needs to be treated with respect,"

he said, glancing at the cup of tea in Carla's hand.

"……"

Carla looked at him and took a sip of tea.

Carla understood that she had stayed in Yu Sea City longer than expected. Terence had missed her and had come all the way to check on her because he was jealous of Steven.
