Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 102 Entertainment On The Way

Carey was already waiting for them outside.

He was familiar with BH City so he picked the quickest route to Sean's school. They were lucky that

they had a good run with the traffic lights.

And that Sean's school wasn't far away from their home. So when they did arrive at the gate of the

school, they were right on time.

When Carla saw the bus still parked at the curb, she breathed a big sigh of relief.

Sean was pleased as well.

Everyone was already on the bus ready to go except for Carla and Sean.

The two teachers that would accompany them to JA City were waiting outside of the bus for Sean and

Carla. They helped Carla put their suit cases in the luggage compartment and then they all boarded the

bus.

Once everyone was settled and took their seats. The bus set off.

"Sean, you are so late. We were all waiting for you!"

It was a boy named Jeremy who was sitting in front of them. He turned around to grumble to Sean.

Jeremy was from a wealthy family. His grades were only average but his family managed to arrange for

him to go on this trip.

Only the top students were supposed to go on this tour since they were traveling to JA City's best

school to further advance their studies.

Unlike Jeremy, Sean had actually earned his spot for this tour. He studied very hard and the results

showed. He was also very good at sports. Sean was always polite and thoughtful, all of the teachers at

his school liked him.

Since Sean knew that he was one of the select few to be chosen to take this tour, instead of buying his

spot he felt proud of himself and just ignored Jeremy and didn't say anything.

"All right, that's enough Jeremy. Just stop it.

He is Terence An's brother-in-law. Not someone we can afford to provoke," Jeremy's mother, Mrs.

Jiang, said with a tone of sarcasm in her voice. She didn't like the poor, like Carla and Sean.

People on the bus heard what she had said and burst into laughter.

Even the teacher who was sitting in the front shook his head and laughed. He did like Sean because he

was a smart student, but he also thought that Sean was too stubborn.

Sean had been going around claiming that he was Terence An's brother-in-law even though Terence

was already engaged to another woman.

Carla lowered her head feeling hurt and embarrassed after hearing the laughter. She was getting used

to being the laughing stock of the city these days. Since everyone had heard of the news of Terence's

engagement.

But Sean wasn't giving in that easy. He was being stubborn again. Once Sean had made his mind up

about something he just wouldn't give up.

"I didn't lie to you! You will see, one day, that Terence An will be my brother-in-law and he will only

marry my sister," he said defiantly with an angry frown.

Carla covered Sean's mouth with her hand and said in a low threatening voice, "That's enough Sean.

Stop it, please."

"Ha! Ha! Mother, did you hear that? He's still dreaming about it! Terence An has got engaged and will

most likely get married soon. And Sean, still thinks that he'll marry his sister. That's so funny!"

Jeremy laughed hysterically as he made fun of Sean. Everyone knew, that Terence An was engaged to

another woman. And not to poor Sean's sister.

It was probably the funniest story that Jeremy had ever heard, though Sean still couldn't accept it.

But that was exactly what made it so comical to Jeremy.

Terence An's engagement had proved without any doubt that Sean and his sister were lying.

"Carla, if your brother insists that you are familiar with Terence An, then why don't you give him a call

since we are all going to JA City? He does live there, doesn't he? It doesn't matter whether you are

going to marry him or not. As long as you can invite him to meet you once we arrive. We'll believe what

you said. Is that fair enough?"

Mrs. Jiang said as she turned around to look at Carla and smile cynically at her.

"Yeah, Carla. Your brother has been spreading the rumor around the whole school. If you can get in

touch with Terence An after we arrive in JA City, then it will at least prove that your brother wasn't lying

about everything. Don't you agree?"

another parent of a student echoed with a smile.

Sean was about to open his mouth again and defend himself and his sister, but, Carla held him back.

"Don't take it too seriously. We do know Terence An, but we are not that familiar with him to be able to

call him to meet us when we arrive there. Sean is just a kid. I apologize for what he has said.

I hope you won't take it too seriously."

Saying that Carla bowed to the rest of the people submissively.

Sean bit his lips to stop himself from saying anything. He squeezed the bracelet painfully hard in his

hand that Terence gave him.

It seemed that only through this way he could prove to himself that Terence really did exist in his life.

And that it wasn't just a dream.

Some of the parents did believe what Carla had said, whereas others still didn't.

Such as Mrs. Jiang, who just wouldn't let it go.

"Well, Carla. So you mean you do know Terence An, right? Have you got his number?"

Mrs. Jiang asked.

Carla remained silent.

Carla certainly did have Terence's number, but she wouldn't give it away or make a phone call to him

just to prove a point to those ignorant people.

"I guess you don't have it then, do you?

What if I were to give you a chance to prove that you do indeed know him personally? Do you dare

take the challenge?"Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Mrs. Jiang took out her cellphone and found a number.

She spoke to the other parents and teachers on the bus as if she was about to put on a show. "I have a

friend who works in JA City. He knows the director of some institute in JA City. The director's best friend

happens to work in the AJ Group.

And the best friend is familiar with the manager of the AJ Group and was able to get Terence An's

number.

I just received it a moment ago."

It took her quite a while to explain how she came in possession of Terence An's number. But she took

great pleasure in telling the story, because it was her chance to brag about her stature as well.

Upon hearing her words, Sean scoffed. Why would she spend so much effort to get Terence's number,

which he already had a long time ago?

Terence even wrote the number down himself on Sean's notebook.

He had made many calls to Terence from home before. What was the big deal?

"Carla, my challenge to you is I make this phone call to him now and if you dare to answer it and

Terence acknowledges that he knows you in any way, then you win, okay?"

Waving the cellphone in the air, Mrs. Jiang added with a cruel smile, while looking at the other parents

on the bus, "After all, we've got plenty of time before we arrive in JA City. Why don't we entertain

ourselves a little? Also, it will prove whether Sean was telling lies in school or not. So, will you do it?"

"Yeah, right. That's a good idea. Mrs. Jiang, you are such a capable person since you can get Terence

An's number. I'm afraid only you could have those sort of connections to be able to do that. None of us

in the school would be able to do that. Am I right?" another parent said flattering Mrs. Jiang.

"Yeah! You are so capable!"

the rest of the parents echoed with a smile as well.

The teacher who was sitting in the front of the bus turned around and glanced at Carla, who was sitting

silently with her head down. He cleared his throat and said, "All right. Forget it. Let's have some rest

since it's still early in the morning."

He felt bad for Carla and was trying to get them all off her back.

After all, if they did call Terence An and he didn't remember her, then she would definitely be the joke

on the bus. All the way up to JA City and all the way back to BH City and everyone was already giving

her a hard time.

As a teacher, he felt that it was his responsibility to maintain peace and harmony and avoid

embarrassment.

"Fine! Make the call and I'll take it!"

Sean stood up suddenly as he couldn't stand it any longer. His voice was so loud that it startled

everyone on the bus.
