Chapter 837 The Vague Relationship Between Rainer and Carol

Eunice's headache worsened as she heard Rhys ramble, over and over again.

Wilma walked in at the right time and stood in front of Eunice to shield her from the tantrums Rhys was throwing. "What the hell do you want, Rhys?

You are solely responsible for my daughter's condition. Why are you yelling at her?"

She grabbed him by his shirt and pulled him aside and stared into his eyes. "Rhys, Eunice is sick; she is mentally ill. I don't want you to trigger her, please," she whispered.

"Get used to the fact that she is not OK. Don't push her off her limits; I don't want her overthinking. Do you understand? I am sure that she will get better in a couple of days. Please be patient till then; try to empathize with her."

Rhys closed his eyes and gritted his teeth in annoyance. He couldn't take it anymore. "Mom, aren't you afraid that she will remain like this forever?"

"That's impossible! She belongs to the Mu family and she is healthy as a horse. It is unfortunate that something like this has happened to her, but she will get better, trust me," Wilma said fiercely. "Rhys, I'm warning you again; don't make things worse for Eunice by provoking her."

Wilma quickly rearranged her expression, plastered a smile on her face and walked towards Eunice.

"Honey, are you feeling better? Does your head still hurt? Want me to call the doctor for you?"

"Mom, Terence ... I want to see Terence,"

Eunice cried as she held her head with her hands.

"Shh ... Shh... Terence is busy now. He will come and see you soon, OK?" Wilma rubbed her daughter's back to comfort her.

Rhys looked back and forth at Wilma and Eunice, lifted his hands in exasperation, turned around and walked out.

In the evening.

At the Seaview Villa.

"Brian, Kyle, I'm happy to introduce my darling wife, Carla Ji,"

Terence grinned proudly as he wrapped his arm on Carla's waist.

"It's a pleasure to meet you."

Carla smiled and reached out her hands.

Terence pulled her back before her hands rested on theirs. "Sit down. Dinner will be ready soon."

Brian and Kyle looked at Terence and Carla in bewilderment.

Carla rolled her eyes at Terence and looked away.

"Terence, why have you turned into a possessive husband? Won't let your woman touch another man, huh?" Kyle arched an eyebrow teasingly.

Terence sat down and shook his head. "Do you think I would have called you guys home if I wer

right behind them, watching them silently.

He saw the two of them gushing and flirting back and forth. He shook his head and walked towards Terence.

"Mr. An, Bryant is on the phone. Can you spare some time to go to the study? He's waiting for you to answer the video call," Nathan whispered into Terence's ears.

"Okay, yeah."

Terence put down his glass. "Honey, I'll be back in a minute," he whispered into Carla's ears.

He smiled at Brian and Kyle. "Guys, enjoy your food. I'll be back soon."

Terence strutted to his room.

Carla nodded and watched Terence leave. She turned back and continued talking with Brian and Kyle.

She had an effortless conversation with Kyle as he was a married man with children. She felt more comfortable as they shared something in common.

Carla noticed Brian stealing a few glances at Terence from time to time and her thoughts flitted to what Carol had reminded her of.

She was fidgeting with her hands nervously and was hoping to prompt Carol to keep a watchful eye on Brian.

When she turned towards Carol's direction, she saw her staring into Rainer's eyes and immediately understood what it meant.

However, Rainer glanced at Carla and understood what she had been thinking. He could read her helpless eyes and cast a reassuring smile. He was about to take a step forward when Carla shook her head, gesturing him to stay back.

She had not noticed it before, but the sparks of love between Rainer and Carol seemed evident now and she did not want to ruin the moment for them. She looked at them in adoration, trying to suppress her goofy grin.
