Chapter 392 Let’s Register Our Marriage Certificate!
The next morning, Terence returned home.
He asked for the household register from his father, Edmund. In truth, he had been waiting for this
moment for a long time.
Carla's condition was delicate due to her pregnancy. He deliberately didn't mention anything about their
wedding or the marriage certificate so that she wouldn't feel stressed out.
However, when she took the initiative to bring it up in conversation last night, Terence immediately took
action. He undeniably felt delighted with the idea. In fact, only when Carla's name was finally printed on
his household register, that he felt entirely secure.
Edmund was initially dissatisfied with Carla, but he no longer opposed their union when Terence
showed him her B-mode ultrasound. Therefore, with no objection from his family, Terence finally got the
household register.
Although Carla was still in the early stages of the pregnancy, Edmund had to admit that the baby was
his grandchild. And with his own blood residing and growing in Carla's belly, he had lost his strength to
oppose the marriage.
On their way to the Civil Affairs Bureau, Terence and Carla decided to get some photos taken for their
marriage certificate.
The both of them looked pleased by the photographs. They were just like any other couple about to tie
the knot and live under the same roof.
"Look, how handsome I am!"
Terence lovingly put up his picture against a red backdrop.
Carla, on the other hand, smiled coyly. Unhappy with the outcome of her photo, she teased her
narcissistic husband-to-be and said, "Of course, you're handsome! Why else would I agree to marry
you?"
Terence knew that she was only teasing him. When he looked at the silly girl smiling in the photo, he
could not help but flash a cheeky smirk too. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
He took one of the photos, folded it and stuffed it in his wallet, which was a display of affection.
"Terence, I hear cross-dressing is quite popular now. Why don't we try that when we get married?"
asked Carla with a grin.
Then, she safely stashed away the photos into a file.
"Cross-dress? What's that?" Terence asked, seemingly puzzled. His confusion was proof that the term
did not ring a bell.
"It means that the groom is going to wear a wedding dress while the bride will wear a suit. How about
that? Let's try it at our wedding, okay? I want to see you in a woman's clothes."
Just as Carla finished her sentence, Rainer, who was driving, couldn't help but burst into laughter.
'Cross-dressing?
I really look forward to seeing what Mr. Terence will look like in a wedding dress! It would be hilarious!'
he thought to himself.
"No, a marriage between a man and a woman is a sacred matter. Moreover, I'm looking forward to
seeing you walk down the aisle in your wedding dress!" Terence refused indirectly after glancing at
Rainer, who was trying his best to keep himself from laughing again.
'You are just afraid of losing face!' Carla scoffed at him in her mind, feigning disappointment.
When Terence saw her disappointment, he stretched out his hand to pinch her nose. "Carla, a lot of
famous people in JA City will attend our wedding. Don't you think it's a little inappropriate to make your
husband wear a dress in public?"
"Sure. I guess it would be a little inappropriate," Carla compromised after understanding what he had
said. However, before long, another silly idea popped into her playful head.
"I have another idea. How about we exchange our clothes when we get back to our room after our
wedding ceremony? There won't be any guests inside, and you can finally let me see what you look
like in my wedding dress! What do you think about that?" Carla proposed with an extremely expectant
look.
"No, no, no, Miss Carla! It won't be fun if only you get to enjoy such a hilarious moment! I want to see
Mr. Terence in a wedding dress too!" Rainer immediately refuted after hearing Carla's proposal. Even
with his eyes on the road, Rainer couldn't help but interrupt the couple's frivolous conversation.
After all, Terence's humiliation wasn't something he could witness every day. The man would only get
married once, so Rainer could not allow this opportunity to slip from his fingers.
However, when Rainer saw how Terence glaring at him, he immediately shut his mouth.
All of a sudden, amidst their chatter, Terence's phone rang.
"Hello, Theo. What's the matter?" he answered.
Theo's voice sounded anxious. "Terence! Something terrible has happened! Rena went up to the roof
of the hospital by herself! And she said that if she doesn't see you in half an hour, she is going to jump
off the building! Please come here at this instant and see for yourself!"
"What?" Terence frowned and glanced at Carla, who was sitting next to him. Then he said, "I'm busy
now. Just take care of it yourself!"
Just as he was about to hang up, Theo's desperate voice stopped him again.
"Terence! Her life is at stake! There's nothing more important than this! As long as you can persuade
Rena to come down first, I can deal with the rest."
"Are you being serious? I can only try to change her mind once or twice. But if she attempts to commit
suicide every day, I can't come to her rescue every time?" Terence's impatience was clear over the
phone.
"I know what you're worried about. Look, she just tried to commit suicide yesterday. Maybe you should
give her some time to calm down and make all things clear?" Theo rushed his speech.
"Come on, Terrence! This is your mess! You can go on with your own life once you have persuaded
Rena to stop this nonsense!"
Theo immediately hung up the phone before Terence could say anything else.
Terence sighed and slid the phone in his pocket.
Carla, who was sitting right next to him the whole time, ended up over-hearing his conversation with
Theo. Without any hesitation, she said, "It's okay, Terence. The Civil Affairs Bureau does not close until
5pm or 6pm. Let's go and see Rena first!"
Terence nodded and then said to Rainer, "Take us to the hospital as fast as you can."
When they arrived at the hospital, they saw a lot of people standing by the inpatient department.
Carla squinted her eyes at the top of the building and saw Rena sitting on the edge of the top floor, still
wearing her patient clothes.
"Rainer, look after Carla. I'll go up and try to talk to her!" said Terence. Terence glanced at the top floor
and frowned before walking towards the inpatient department.
Meanwhile, Rainer noticed that a crowd was starting to form outside.
"Miss Carla, let's go inside first. There are too many people outside. I'm afraid that they'll bump into
you. As for Rena, you don't have to worry about her. Mr. Terence is there. He can deal with her
properly!" he softly said.
Carla also felt concerned with the surrounding as more and more people stopped to watch what was
happening. Without further delay, she nodded in agreement and followed Rainer inside.
At the same time, Terence had just reached the top floor.
Rena, who originally wanted to jump off the building, miraculously decided to get down as soon as she
saw that Terence had come to her rescue.
She ran towards Terence, greeting him with a tight embrace.
"Terence, you're here!
I knew it! I knew you still cared about me. Terence, I've missed you so much!"
Rena held Terence in her arms, flashing an innocent smile as if she wasn't the girl who was thinking of
jumping off the building a few seconds ago.
"Rena, this is the last time. If you ever pull something like this again, even if you really jump off the
building next time, I won't come to see you again!!"
Terence's face grew gloomy when he looked at Rena, who was still laughing like everything was a big
joke to her. He felt even angrier thinking about how he had to stop on his way to get the marriage
certificate with Carla.
"But you're still here, aren't you?"
Rena held Terence's arm, not minding the rage that was slowly boiling in his head. She then said, "Now
that you're here, can you keep me company for a while. I get so bored in this hospital!"
Meanwhile, Rena's parents were standing in one corner, both helpless as they witnessed how messed
up their daughter was.
Theo was also speechless. He could not understand how Rena had turned into such a crazy woman!
Fuming with rage, Terence did not accompany Rena back to the ward as he didn't want to waste his
time anymore.
He got on a different elevator, but much to his chagrin, Rena's elevator reached the ground floor at the
same time his did.
"Terence! Where are you going? Can't you just stay here with me for a while? Why are you leaving so
soon?"
Rena's parents tried to stop her from running towards Terence, despite her struggling. She ran after
Terence, but as soon as she saw Carla waiting on the first floor, she suddenly stopped on her tracks.
Carla, who was sitting on a chair, saw Terence coming down. As soon as she was about to stand up,
Rena, who was also running after Terence, appeared at her sight.
Terence gazed at Carla from afar, with starry eyes filled with an apologetic light.
When he noticed Carla's eyes piercing right through him, he turned around to see what she was
looking at.
And gradually, his face turned stern and stiff at the sight of the one person he hated more than anything
in the world.
