Waiting For a Girl Like You - Chapter 1039 Carla's Smart Decision
“Please don’t worry about it, Mrs. An. You have done everything you could,”
Rainer said as he continued to follow her.
Everyone was already aware of Steven’s love for Carla.
Love always pushes people out of their boundaries. It is a magical feeling that sets people onto unexpected journeys.
It was Steven’s love for Carla that made him help her and risk everything for her.
Even after witnessing Steven’s generosity, some people called him a selfish man.
But it was justifiable for him to be selfish.
He had done everything he could to win a place in Carla’s heart. But he was also a man with dignity and pride. He only wanted Carla’s love, not her sympathy.
Carla sighed. She looked up at the blue sky and stretched her sore muscles.
“You are right. I’ve said everything that I needed to say. It’s up to him to decide what he needs to do.”
Rainer then got a call from Terence. He quickly answered it and looked at Carla, “Ma’am, Mr. An is done with his work. He’s now waiting for you.”
“Okay, I want to take the Ferris wheel. Let’s go!”
It was a quiet night with the occasional rustling sound of the leaves swaying in the wind.
It was late when Steven got back to his apartment.
He entered the room, closed the door, and leaned against it. He felt suffocated and was gasping for breath.
He wanted to punch himself. He wanted to scream loudly until the stress withered from his body.
His heart had been thrumming wildly in his chest the entire time Carla had talked to him. His mind had wavered for a moment when he heard Carla’s offer. He wanted to forget everything and go back with her. He wanted to leave this place and go back to wherever she was. Nothing mattered to him as long as she was by his side.
He knew that he was a loser. He knew that Carla had said all those things only to pacify him.
However, it took every bit of his strength to resist the temptation.
“She deserves better, not a loser like you. She has already been through a lot because of you. Stay out of her life,”
he muttered to himself.
Steven didn’t mean any of the words he had said to Carla.
He just felt that she would be happy and peaceful without him. He didn’t want to be selfish and crawl back to her.
Steven bit his knuckles to suppress the rage that was simmering in his stomach. He was mad at himself for loving Carla, and mad at fate for keeping her out of his life. Tears streamed down his cheeks. He quickly wiped his tears and grabbed a cup of insta
lives here. It will only take thirty minutes to go to her place if you take the subway. It will be a convenient place for you to work. You can earn money, as well as take care of your mother.”
Carla smiled and quickly dialed a number.
Linda opened her mouth but Carla did not give her a chance to talk.
“Just a minute, I’m calling my friend now!”
She stepped aside and made a call.
Terence suppressed his laughter and smiled proudly at Carla. ‘Wow, she is getting smarter every day, ‘ he thought.
She had not only helped Linda but also gotten rid of the unnecessary trouble.
“Okay, it’s settled. You can start working there anytime you’re ready. I’ll text you the address,”
Carla said happily as she sent Violet’s address to Linda.
She knew that Linda was not satisfied with this plan.
Linda wanted to refuse but she was dumbfounded and couldn’t say a word.
“Linda, do you have anything else for us? We are leaving now. You can call me if you need anything.” Carla waved and held Terence’s hand as they walked towards the exit.
Once they got into the car, Terence smiled and kissed her forehead.
“Honey, you have become smarter.”
Carla shrugged and pulled out a packet of snacks from her bag. She had brought the snacks to eat in the hospital. Now that he was discharged, she decided to finish them right away.
“I don’t have a choice, do I? My husband is a handsome hunk and I’ve got to be smart to keep him away from the eyes of hungry women,”
she said, happily munching on the chips.
Moreover, it wasn’t appropriate for Terence to have Linda at his house when she was clearly in love with him. So Carla decided to settle the matter for him.
