Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 192 The Entertainment Club

"Mr. Brooke, please, I have obeyed all your orders. What are you going to do to me now?" Carla asked.

Brooke pushed her into the room and thrust a phone into her hand.

It was her cellphone.

"Someone called for you. Call them back and tell them you were in the shower. That's why you missed

their call. Tell them. Now! Call them!"

Brooke commanded. He chewed on his gum while he took a sharp knife from his men. He pressed it

against Carla's throat and threatened, "Don't say a word about us. Or I'll slit your throat! Your friend

won't be fast enough to save you!"

Carla held back her tears and assured him, "I won't try to do anything stupid, Mr. Brooke. I promise I

won't tell them anything about this and about you. Please, just don't hurt me with the knife, please!"

But Brooke kept the knife against her throat. She fought back her tears and lifted her cellphone to eye

level so she could check her calls. There were five unanswered calls.

Four were from Terence, and the last one was from- Noah? What!

Carla took a few deep breaths to calm herself before she talked to Brooke again, "Mr. Brooke, please,

can you move the knife away while I make the call? The knife is making me nervous. And my friends

will hear that I'm nervous while I'm talking to them. They'll know something is wrong."

Brooke thought for a minute and removed the knife from her throat. He knew she couldn't escape

anyway. And even if she told them, she would be dead before they could find her.

Carla took several more deep breaths to calm her nerves. She turned to her phone while she fought

back tears. She was about to press Terence's name when her phone rang.

"Answer it, now! And use the speaker!"

Brooke commanded in a panic.

Carla accepted the call and answered, "Hello?" She tried to make herself sound normal.

"Carla! Where have you been? I have been calling you several times!" Terence's voice boomed on the

speaker. He was worried when Carla didn't answer his call immediately.

Carla cleared her throat to clear the nerves. She bit her lower lip before she answered, "No need to

panic, Terence. I was just in the shower; that's why I wasn't able to answer your calls."

"Are you all right, Carla?" Terence continued to ask. He had been worried when she didn't answer but

he was relieved when he finally heard her voice.

He called her five times and she only answered on the fifth call. He was ready to organize a search

party for her.

"Yes, yes, I'm fine. Hey, did you like the pig that I drew for you?" she asked. A smile formed on her lips

unconsciously as she remembered her small gift for Terence. Tears threatened to fill her eyes.

Terence chuckled, "Of course I do! I loved the painting below it, too. They're both mounted already.

Actually, Sean loved the pig drawing. So I let him keep it in his room."

"I'm really glad you like them. I need to go now, honey. I'm visiting the factory early tomorrow morning

so I need to go to bed now."

Carla ended the call before Terence could say anything else. She knew that if the conversation

continued, she would break down and give away her situation.

Brooke nodded at her when Carla ended the call. She knew her plan worked because Brooke didn't

say anything. But then he pointed to the other caller and commanded, "Call this one back!"

Carla was dumbfounded. 'Call Noah?

Should I call Noah?' she thought.

In JA City, at that same moment, Terence stared at his cellphone. Carla ended the conversation so fast

that it shocked him.

And honey?

She had never ever called him honey. And in such an intimate way. But her voice was very normal like

nothing was wrong. Something was going on.

"Nathan, arrange for your men to visit Carla's hotel. Check if she is in her room or not. If she is in the

room, make sure everything is fine. Keep an eye on everything happening around her and for anything

unusual!"

Terence instructed as soon as Nathan arrived.

Back at the place Carla was being held, Carla stared at her phone while she thought of a plan to delay

the command. Nothing came to mind and she had no choice but to call the number.

Brooke and his men wouldn't know who the callers were since she used different nicknames when she

saved their numbers on her phone.

Terence's name was saved as Prince T.

Noah's was saved as Big Wolf.

She thought of Noah as an unassuming but cunning wolf. He seemed kind at first but turned out to be

very dangerous.

"Hello, Mr. Hua, I received a call from you today. Did you want something from me? I already gave you

what you asked," Carla asked with ice in her voice. She stole a glance at the kidnappers and

suspected they were connected to Bonnie or other member of the Hua family.

Noah responded to Carla's icy, formal tone and asked, "Carla, what's wrong? Are you still mad at me

from that day?"

She had already started to call him Noah but, now, she suddenly called him Mr. Hua. She must be

angry because of what Lily said.

Carla sneered, "Just get to the point, Mr. Hua. What do you want?"

Noah couldn't figure out why Carla was being so unfriendly. He continued, "I just arrived at HA City. Are

you available tomorrow? I want to show you around."

Carla kept an eye on Brooke and his men while she talked to Noah. Something was up with them, she

definitely felt it.

Brooke, who stood beside her, wiped the sweat that appeared on his forehead. She could hear him

hold his breath every time Noah spoke.

Beside Brooke, his men reacted the same way.

Right then, she was sure that Brooke and his men were connected to the Hua family.

"Thanks to you, Mr. Hua, I am not available tomorrow and even any day after tomorrow!"

Carla hung up the phone before he could talk.

Bonnie could have given her brother's men the instructions to kidnap her. And from their phone

conversation, Noah would figure that out soon.

But as soon as she hung up the phone, Brooke had his knife against Carla's throat again.

"How do you know Mr. Noah? Do you have a relationship with him? Tell me! Now!"

Carla's heart started to beat faster. She closed her eyes and held her breath. She felt the cold steel of

the knife on her throat and she tried her best to stay still. She managed to choke out one word, "Wait."

Brooke loosened his grip on the knife and removed it from Carla's throat. Carla exhaled the breath she

held and massaged her throat. She opened her eyes and faced Brooke. "He rushed back to HA City Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

when he found out I was here. What do you think?"

Carla sensed that Brooke was afraid of Noah.

And it looked like Noah didn't know anything about this kidnapping. Brooke's reaction gave that away.

And if she was right, her chance for survival would be greater. Noah would be able to save her since

Terence was too far away.

"What? That's not possible. Why would Mr. Noah take a fancy to you?" Brooke asked. He was

confused and shocked while he assessed Carla's looks. He found it hard to believe but it was Noah's

voice that he heard on the phone.

Noah held strong power in both legal and illegal channels. Nobody could and would dare to offend him,

especially in HA City.

"Mr. Brooke, please. I know you took me here because someone ordered you to do it. But you need to

think about what you're doing now. Whose side are you on? Who is more important? Mr. Noah or this

other person?"

It might not be against her throat anymore but Brooke still kept the knife near and ready to attack in

case Carla did something he didn't like. She tried to pacify him and reason with him instead.

Because now, she was sure it was Bonnie who asked Brooke to kidnap her. There was no one else

who could hate her that much.

Bonnie did it all behind Noah. Noah had no idea that Bonnie had done such a thing or he wouldn't have

called her.

Brooke didn't answer Carla. He didn't know what to say. But, before he could answer, one of his men

called him.

"Brooke, you got a call from the boss!"

One of his men handed him the cell phone.

"What's going on now? Is everything going according to plan?"

Bonnie demanded on the other side of the line as soon as Brooke answered.

"Yes, you can rest assured. Everything is going according to plan," Brooke answered with a tremble in

his voice.

"It better be. I want you to use your cellphone and take a video of her. Make sure I can see her face

clearly. And make sure it's a long video. Then send it to me. Once you send it, I'll give you what I

promised. You have my word,"

Bonnie reminded Brooke.

She thought that Carla had someone film her in a sex video in the past. And today, Carla must go

through a similar event.

The video would be sent to Terence, her brother Noah, and all the people who knew Carla.

She needed to let them know what a shameless dirty cunt Carla was!
