Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 272 Callie Hua

For the past two days, Carla had been lying still on the bed. Her leg was still in a cast, hanging from the

ceiling. In all honesty, she felt dull and suffocated.

The only good thing about the rest and treatment that she had been receiving was that she was feeling

much better. The pain in her head had subsided and she had managed not to think about any

bothersome matters.

Though she was physically getting better, she felt somewhat helpless because she needed to stay on

the bed all day. She was eager to get up and walk around but she wasn't allowed to do so. Besides, it

was not like she could.

To distract her mind, Noah filled the cabinet in the ward with books that she could read and games that

she could play on the television set. However, she couldn't concentrate on one book for a long time

because sitting for too long also gave her pain.

That day, while she was sitting idly on the bed, she suddenly heard a gruff voice from outside of her

ward.

"I was wondering why my brother kept on going to this floor. Now I see that it's all because of you," a

young pretty woman sharply told her as soon as she opened the door to the ward.

Bonnie was about to visit her father upstairs when she found out that Noah had been visiting this ward

frequently. She was curious so she followed him to check it out.

What she didn't expect was to find Carla in there.

"Your brother?" Carla asked, obviously unaware of what Bonnie was talking about.

Carla observed the woman in front of her from head to toe, trying so hard to remember who she was.

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remember her at all. All Carla knew was that this woman

was familiar.

With her head held high and her high heels clacking the hospital floor, Bonnie approached Carla. When

she saw Carla's leg in a cast, she burst into a chain of derisive laughter. "Whoops! You really got hurt

this time. Ah? How about your head? Did you hit it? Is it all right?" Bonnie mocked her while she

laughed loudly. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Then she continued, "How many is this? Can you even count with your brain right now?"

She waved her fingers in front of Carla's face.

Although Carla couldn't remember her, she decided then and there that this woman must be an enemy.

So Carla adjusted her posture. She then raised the corner of her lips and retorted, "Don't worry. I'm

perfectly fine."

Bonnie eyed Carla and she realized that she was fixed on the bed and couldn't move. Then she

smirked and stated, "Your quick tongue can't help you now. Look at yourself. Do you think you can win

over me this time?"

With that, Bonnie took a cup of water and held it near Carla's bed. Then, she shook it violently and the

water spilled on Carla's hospital gown.

"What are you doing?"

Carla cried, scowling at the crazy woman.

"What am I doing? Can't you see it?" Bonnie pressed on her words. Then, she poured the remaining

water in the cup on Carla's face. "I'm giving you what you deserve, bitch! How do you have the nerve to

stay in HA City?" Bonnie screamed at her. Carla could see the rage in her eyes as if she was really

mad at her. Then, Bonnie continued, "What are you doing here? Are you trying to seduce my brother

again? You slut! You want to take both cities with your dirty hands?"

Carla didn't say anything. She just closed her eyes as water ran down on her face and clothes.

Staring at the crazy woman in front of her, Carla gently wiped her face with one hand while she

stealthily reached the other hand under her pillow.

Despite her current brain impairment, Carla was still Carla.

Carla would never allow herself to be humiliated or bullied by anybody.

Under the pillow was a knife which she had found in her bag. If this woman dared to hurt her, she

would destroy her face.

"Bonnie? What are you doing there?"

As soon as Carla got hold of the knife, she heard Noah's voice from the door. She immediately pushed

the knife back.

"Noah?" When Bonnie saw Noah enter the room, she immediately stepped back from the bed. Her face

was unexpectedly tense.

Noah quickly examined the situation in front of him. When he saw that Carla's clothes were drenched

with water, he immediately knew what had happened. He furrowed his brows and turned to Bonnie.

Dropping her head and instinctively avoiding Noah's accusing eyes, Bonnie stepped a few steps back.

Although Bonnie was the closest to Noah in their family, she feared him the most.

Fully aware that Noah was about to burst in anger, Bonnie took the chance to slip away swiftly.

Noah watched as Bonnie ran out of the room. He sighed deeply before turning back to Carla.

"Sorry, Carla. I apologized for her," he sincerely said.

Carla tugged at her drenched hospital gown that was starting to cling onto her body. She smiled bitterly

and stated, "That's alright. I can change. Although, could you please ask the hospital for more gowns.

Just in case something happens next time. I'd better have another one to change into."

Noah called the nurse's station and then they were silent after that. After a few seconds, Carla said,

"Well, I saw on my ID card that I'm from BH City. How about this? Transfer me to the hospital in my

hometown. I probably have a family there, right? I can't stay here and bother you anymore."

Noah carefully listened to her but he didn't respond. While waiting for his answer, Carla reached for a

tissue and slowly dried her face and neck.

She honestly felt upset at what happened to her. That woman just came into her room, called her

names, accused her of things she couldn't understand and threw water on her. All the while, she had

no idea what she was talking about.

What made it worse was that the offender simply left without even an apology.

"Carla..." Noah spoke up, but Carla cut him off.

"If it's too much trouble for you, I can do it myself. You don't need to do anything," she said. With that,

she picked up her phone on the table and tapped on the screen, pretending to look for a person she

knew in the contacts list.

Unfortunately, she couldn't remember any of them.

But since she had their numbers, they must be her friends or family. They might do her this favor.

Noah leaned forward and took the phone from her hand. Then, he said, "Give me a few minutes,

Carla."

Without an explanation, he left the room. Carla didn't have any idea where he went off to or what was

he about to do. Five minutes later, he came back with Bonnie behind him.

"Bonnie, say sorry to Carla!" he demanded.

"The past is the past. I said we shouldn't bring it up again. Carla was injured because she wanted to

save me. How could you make fun of her?" he scolded Bonnie. "If you really are my sister, apologize to

her right now!" he added.

With disdain, Bonnie looked at Carla for a moment. Then, she turned to Noah and said, "Noah, you

don't know her motives. She flirts with men everywhere. She's just playing with you. How could you be

such a fool to take the bait?"

Thwack! A slap landed squarely on her face.

Bonnie and Carla froze. She stared at Noah in disbelief while she caressed her aching cheek.

"Noah, did you just..."

Bonnie tried to speak but she was too dumbfounded to continue and even believe what just happened.

Noah narrowed his eyes at Bonnie. He clenched his fists and said, "I suppose it's my fault why you're

so spoiled. If you keep on behaving like a child from here on, you have no idea what I'll do to teach

you. Don't make me do that."

He looked at Bonnie's reactions before he continued, "Carla is going to stay here for a while. If you're

smart, you'll try to get along with her. If you keep on giving her troubles, I will send you abroad right

away. Who do you think Father and Mother will listen to?"

After that, Noah stepped out of the room while he dragged Bonnie with him.

Watching them leave, Carla felt relieved. She leaned back while she exhaled deeply and picked up her

phone.

Meanwhile, in the VIP room upstairs, Andrea was weeping with joy beside Allen's hospital bed. In her

hands were the DNA test results.

"Allen, it's been 23 years but we finally found our daughter... Thank gods we can see our daughter

while we're still alive," Andrea slowly stated with tears in her eyes.

On the bed, Allen coughed while he reached out his shaking hand to take a look at the paper in

Andrea's hand. The moment the words that warranted the father and daughter kinship came into his

eyes, tears streamed down his face.

Gasping, he turned to Andrea and asked, "Where is she? Help me up. I want to see her right now!"

Andrea wiped away the tears on her face while she said, "Do you remember the time when Noah was

hospitalized a few months back? Remember the girl that was with Bonnie in the hospital?

Back then, I felt that she looked like me when I was young. My intuition was telling me that she might

be our daughter. Later on, I sent people to find out more about her. The more I know her story and

where she came from, the more I was certain that she was the one we had been looking for.

Noah told me that he had done some research and was convinced that Carla was our daughter Callie.

That's why they were on their way here. Noah wanted us to meet her. Unfortunately, they got into an

accident.

Thank goodness, it's not fatal and it also gave me a chance to prompt a DNA test."

Andrea had tears in her eyes while she narrated.

She then added, "Thank the heavens that her adoptive father gave her the name Carla. It sounds like

Callie. Don't you think this is fate?"

At that moment, happiness filled their hearts. They felt delighted and excited to think that Carla Ji and

Callie Hua was just the same person.

"Andrea, help me up. I want to see her right now. I want to see my daughter!" Allen urged again.

He couldn't allow himself to delay a minute. They lost her over twenty years ago. Now that she had

shown up and was just lying in the room downstairs, he couldn't wait another second.

"Calm down, Allen. Callie hit her head in the accident and she couldn't remember anything right now.

The doctor said that she needs some rest. She shouldn't have extreme emotions and stresses at the

moment. So we have to wait for good,"

Andrea suggested, holding him back to the bed.

Hearing that, Allen nodded in disappointment. With a sharp exhale, he said, "You're right. We have to

take it easy. She needs some time to take in the whole story. After all, it was our fault back then..."
