Chapter 926 Let's Exchange Partners

"I requested Mr. An to bring me along. Steven, do you have any idea how worried I was? I couldn't stop thinking about you. I was so worried and it was driving me crazy. I was scared to death, Steven. I couldn't sleep. I have been getting nightmares about all sorts of horrible things happening to you."

Cindy pulled Steven into a tight embrace as a line of tears streaked her cheeks. "Steven, you scared me to death. Please, please, don't ever come to Yu Sea City again, okay?

Come back with us to JA City. We don't have to return to this barbaric place again!"

It is the 21st century and people have come a long way. Men and women are equal but the traditions in Yu Sea City had been strictly preserved. They were still living their lives following age old customs.

Steven had almost lost his virginity to a local woman but Cindy would never believe that.

Not far away from Steven and Cindy, Carla and Terence were still hugging each other and happy tears were rolling down Carla's cheeks. Every minute seemed like an eternity when they were apart. Carla was glad to be back in his safe embrace. How much she had missed it.

Carla wanted to get down from her locked embrace with Terence but he was holding her with all his strength, almost as if he was afraid that she might disappear if he let her down. "Don't you have any plans of letting me down?" Carla asked, chuckling. "All right, let's see if you can carry me all the way to that place!"

she said, arching an eyebrow as her finger pointed at the palace, atop the mountain.

''You're doubting my strength, huh? I can easily carry you there." Terence kissed her lips and smiled softly. It was such a relief for him to finally hold her in his arms.

Carla's gaze flitted to Cindy and Steven who were also hugging each other. She was too busy kissing her husband and did not realize that Cindy' had also come.

"Terence, is that Cindy? I didn't know that she came along with you,"

Carla snapped her head to look at Terence and asked curiously.

Terence glanced at Carla and Steven. "Yeah, she called me and was very insistent about coming along with me. I could see that she was crazy about Steven and was dying to see him. So I brought her along with me."

But Terence had a bigger motive.

He was aware of what had happened in Yu Sea City. Steven had been in love with Carla for a very long time. He thought that Cindy's arrival would distract him and make him forget Carla.

Carla nodded and pulled herself from his arms.

"Put me down. I want to talk to her."

Terence smiled and dropped her down but his fingers were gently cla

Carla's mouth became dry and she broke into a cold sweat. Lucia was always a pain in the neck. She should have left early. What was she still doing here?

It was a waking nightmare for Carla. It wouldn't be long before Terence found out everything.

"Hey, what's your name? Are you married?"

Lucia sauntered up to Terence and a seductive smile stretched across her lips.

"Fuck off!"

Terence said coldly and his jaw tightened with disgust.

Nathan and Rainer formed a shield in front of Terence, protecting him from Lucia.

Carla cleared her throat awkwardly. "Lucia, this is your brother-in-law."

Carla knew that Lucia was a horny beast. Men and sex were all that mattered to her. She couldn't wait to ravage handsome men. Carla wondered if other women in Yu Sea City were also like her.

"What? Brother-in-law?"

Lucia's mouth dropped open in shock as she stared at him with wide eyes.

"What? What do you mean?" she muttered as her brows furrowed with confusion.

Lucia remembered her mother advising her not to offend the An family in JA City. Therefore, she could not make a move at Terence and piss him off.

A long time ago, Nicholas from the An family had fought along with his troops to suppress the riots in Yu Sea City. He had played a major role in restoring peace in the city. The people of Yu Sea City were forever indebted and grateful to the An family because of this.

Therefore, the JA group was the only company that had the power to establish a branch in Yu Sea City.

Lucia shuddered and gulped loudly before turning to look at Steven. She dared not to disrespect Terence anymore.

"Steven, let's go down the mountain together," she mumbled and her cheeks were flaming with embarrassment.
