Chapter 766 The Same Room, Different Beds (Part Two)

Terence candidly stated.

Carla opened her mouth. She wanted to say something. She wanted to argue with him. She wanted to tell him that yes, he was being unreasonable. How could he think that she would be fine living with him after everything that he had done? However, no matter how much she wanted to, no words came out of her mouth.

Sally was her weakness. Her daughter would always be her one weak spot. At that moment, she suddenly remembered that there was one time when her daughter had vehemently asked to be with her father. So now, if she forced her daughter to part with Terence, it seemed cruel to the child who just wanted to be with her biological father.

"Okay fine, but here's what I want as a compromise. First, the apartment has a lot of rooms so let's sleep in separate rooms. We can share the same house, but we'll have different beds. Second, we can only live together temporarily. And third, we're not going to interfere with each other's affairs," Carla resolutely stated when it dawned on her that she had no other choice in the matter.

Hearing Carla's answer, Terence relaxed his tight brows and said, "Okay. But, I don't want to let Sally know what's the true nature of our relationship right now. So, for the sake of our daughter, don't be too cold towards me in front of the child. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I know, you don't need to tell me. Well, I'm going to pack up Sally's things and also mine."

Carla rolled her eyes at him, stood up and left without another word.

Half an hour had passed.

When Carla had fi

om to go to. Nathan and Rainer will stay in a room, and another room will be used as storage for our things. This is the only room you can stay in."

Unlike the Seaview Villa, this apartment did not have a lot of empty rooms.

Carla paused to think about the situation she was in. If there was no more room for her, why did he even asked her to come and live with him? Then suddenly, an idea came to her.

"I will just go to sleep with⁠... "

"Sally's bed is for children. Are you sure you want to share that small bed with her?"

Before she could finish, Terence interrupted her.

"Carla, do you really want to draw the line between us so blatantly?

What happened to your eagerness and determination to be with me in the past? Was it not you who told me that you'd stay by my side forever? Did you really forget the promise you made?"

While she was still in a daze from his words or from thinking about another way out of that situation, Terence pulled her inside the room.

And then he instantly closed and locked the door.
