"Are you serious? Do you really mean it? Will you listen to all my decisions in the future without opposing me?" Carla arched an eyebrow.
"Are you sure that you won't regret the promise you've made today?" A smile tugged on the corners of her lips.
"Yeah, of course, I'm very sure. I'm not one to break promises." Terence looked at her intently. "Like I promised, I will do everything I can to make you happy."
Terence held Carla's hands and smiled at her, his eyes staring into hers, revealing the intensity of his promise.
"But, hey, why does it have to be so serious between us? Do you want me to swear on something to prove it to you?" Terence teased. Carla glanced at him and picked her phone. She had recently joined a yoga course, which was exclusively for pregnant women.
Suddenly, an idea came to mind. She had recently come across an experience class, and she had been thinking of enrolling. It required couples to participate together.
The experience class seemed new to her and she had wanted to go in person to find out about it. Now, she felt that it was the perfect opportunity to find out whether Terence would keep his promise or not.
Carla quickly made an appointment with the coach. She bit her lips to suppress her laughter when she cast a glance at Terence. "I'm going to take you somewhere."
Terence knitted his eyebrows when he saw the mysterious look on Carla's face. He went with her without saying a word.
When they arrived at the club, Terence saw that people were busy doing something that he couldn't comprehend. His gaze settled on a man who was clumsily changing diapers on a baby doll.
A frown had lined on his forehead. When he turned towards Carla, he saw that she was grinning, looking pleased with herself.
"Honey, do you think we must join the class?" When he saw Carla raise an eyebrow, he quickly changed his choice of words. "Well, alright, is it necessary for me to join the class? I'm smart and I don't think that I would need to attend classes to learn the basics,"
Terence groaned as he did not understand why Carla brought him to a strange place like this. He felt that she was overdoing things. Even if Terence couldn't take care of the baby, they had servants who would cater to all his needs, from feeding the baby to changing diapers.
"You need to understand the basics. You didn't have a chance to take care of Sally when she was an infant. You've no idea how difficult it is to take care of a newborn baby. And I think that's exactly why you should join this class. Look, there are many inexperienced dads like you and there's no need for you to feel embarrassed about it,"
Carla said, looking intently at Terence as she pictured how he would look when he d
Terence frowned and was hesitant to take a bite. Just when he was about to refuse, Carla arched an eyebrow, which made him immediately heed her request.
Terence usually disliked anything sweet or sour, but to his surprise, he actually enjoyed it.
Carla was having a great time and her face settled into a happy grin. They were wandering on the streets and Carla immediately stopped when she walked past an open-air restaurant.
Her gaze settled on a table where two men were sitting opposite each other, discussing something animatedly.
An uncomfortable feeling formed in the pit of her stomach when she saw them.
"What's up, Honey? What are you looking at?" Terence asked when he saw Carla staring at something. When he followed her gaze, he saw the two men in the restaurant.
He frowned and wondered how Brian knew Steven.
Terence stepped forward to greet his friend, but Carla quickly grabbed his hand and stopped him. "Where are you going?"
"What? I'm going to go over to say hi to my friend. By the way, aren't you tired? Don't you want to go over and talk to them?" Terence held her hand, ushering her into the restaurant.
"No, we should not interrupt them. They're in the middle of a conversation and it will be inappropriate to disturb them," Carla said.
Terence was confused. He couldn't understand why Carla stopped him when he just wanted to say hi to them. It was the polite thing to do and did not know why Carla considered it as an interruption.
He finally sighed and cast a meaningful glance at his wife.
"Oh, I get it. It is because of Steven, isn't it? I found you very resistant to my talking to him." Terence smiled and continued to walk in the opposite direction.
Carla knitted her brows.
She hesitated for a moment and finally grabbed Terence's hand and stopped him.
