Chapter 166 Stay With Me III
Chapter 166 Stay With Me III
“What about you? Three years ago, if it weren't for my overflowing sympathy, could you stand here and tell me that this world is not as perfect as I thought?!”
“I am myself. I am different from others.”
Karin snorts coldly, “How is it different? Just because you are a rich boy from a prominent family, but Jacob is just a poor wild child? Yes, it's because you are rich and powerful, so you can't feel the same way those whose lives are not as good as yours do, you don’t have to worry about food and clothing, and you don’t have to do something desperate because you don’t have money to go to the hospital. However, you don’t need to worry about these troubles. It does not mean that others do not need to worry about these troubles either. Jacob just wanted to raise money to treat his mother’s disease. He had no choice but to do it. Perhaps what he has done was shameful, but his motive was forgivable. His sister passed away because she had no money to treat her illness, and then her mother fell ill. His feelings as someone’s son, are supposed to be more understandable to you, who wants to avenge your parents, right?”
Troy pauses for a while, but there is no sign of wavering, “It is a good thing to have filial piety, but it is not a good thing to take risks in order to fulfill filial piety. If Mike killed John, and Mike says that the reason for his murder is because John insulted his parents, do you think he can be forgiven?”
“How can this be the same? Parents will not die if they are insulted, but they will definitely die if they lie in bed and don't have the money to treat the disease. Besides, Jacob didn't kill anyone!”
“His behavior has no difference from murder, so you don't need to argue for him anymore. I can't let him go.”
Karin’s last hope is shattered, with tears rolling in her eyes, and she bitterly says, “Do it as you like. Anyway, I didn’t hold much hope before I came to you. How can a superior person like you imagine the helplessness of those living in the dust!”
After she finishes speaking, she is about to leave without looking back, but Troy grabs her arm, “I haven't blamed you for leading the wolf into the room, how could you argue with me for a stranger?”
“To you, he is a stranger, but to me, he is like a family!”
“Family? Your family is not only a stranger to me, but even an enemy.”
“What then? What do you want? Do you even want to take revenge on me?”
Troy pulls harder to get her closer. He holds her waist and says, “It's not impossible to make me save him.”
His gaze becomes scorching and blurry, and she knows clearly what he meant in her heart, but she still pretends and asks, “How?”
“Stay.” He bites her ear, saying word by word, “Stay by my side. From now on, you can't go anywhere!”
Huh, she knows he will say that.
Closing her eyes, thinking of Jacob’s desperate look, and his tragic fate, she is heartbroken, “Okay, I promise you!”
If she can save Jacob's life by giving up her dignity, she willingly agrees. No matter how Troy has hurt her, or whether the wound in her heart has been healed or not, as long as Jacob can be saved, everything else can be ignored.
Only those who have died once can understand the value of life.
“But I have one condition.”
“What condition?”
“Arrange a job for Jacob. He must be under your nose. I'm afraid that if he is arranged elsewhere, those who bear grudges against him will not let him get away.”
“Then I will arrange him to follow you 24 hours a day, to prevent you from running away, and also, it is considered to have agreed to your request. Not only that he is under my nose, but you are also under my nose.”
Karin raises her head angrily, “You...”
“Why? You don’t want it?”
“Are you treating me as a prisoner?”
“I am treating you as a prisoner. I want to imprison you by my side forever, so that you can't escape from me for your whole life.”
Troy walks closer and closer to her until she is forced into the corner, reaching out one hand to her elastic slacks. She instinctively reaches out to stop him, but sees him raise his eyebrows, “Don't you want to save him?”
“Are you threatening me?” She grits her teeth with hatred. However, she still drops her hand unwillingly.
“I am helpless. You don’t compromise easily.”
“Didn't I promise to stay?”
“What does it mean to stay? It means you have to cooperate with what I want to do now, doesn’t it?”
“Then what you mean is, you only need a sex partner?”
Troy leans slightly with his cheek against hers and says, “Even a sex partner must have love. How can you not love me?”
...
Karin is turned on and she almost can’t stand on her legs, gasping in a low voice with her mouth open, and says, “I'm just trying to save Jacob, so don't get proud...”
“Never mind, I can make you surrender.”
When the passion subsides, Karin picks up the clothes on the ground and puts them on piece by piece.
“Don't forget what you’ve promised me.”
“Where are you going?”
Troy stops her.
She glances slightly back at him, “Back to school, I’ll go back to Ziteng Garden when you get Jacob out.”
“Okay.”
Two days later, in the CEO’s office of Charlie Group, Troy is sitting on a leather office chair with his back facing the door.
After a while, Robert walks in with someone and reports to Troy in a low voice, “Mr. Troy, Jacob is here.”
He slowly turns around, looks over sharply, and asks in a deep voice, “Do you know why you survive?”
“Yes.”
Jacob nods heavily.
Troy walks up to him, “If it weren't for Miss Karin, I would have killed you. So, remember, you owe her two lives.”
“I’ll bear it in my heart!”
“You will stay here as a security guard in the future. As long as you behave yourself, I will not let you ever worry about food and clothing.”
“Thank you, Mr. Troy!”
Troy looks at Robert, “Take him to the administration department to complete the procedures, and then go to University of Zurich.”
“Yes sir.”
In the evening, Karin and Billie are talking about finding a job in the dormitory when someone knocks on the door.
Billie walks over to open the door and sees Robert standing outside, with a stranger standing behind him, and she asks in surprise, “Who is he?”
“His name is Jacob.”
Jacob? As soon as Karin in the room hears the name, she rushes over, “Jacob, it's really you!!”
“Karin...”
“Great, you are finally out.”
They cry so hard together, and Billie is dumbfounded, and furtively asks Robert who is standing next to her, “What's this about?”
“Come out and I will tell you.”
They quietly go out. Karin takes Jacob into the room, pours a glass of water for him, and asks how he has been doing for a long while.
“So, you will be a security guard in Charlie Group from now on?”
“Yep.”
“Then you must behave well. Troy is a wise boss. As long as you work hard, your day will come.”
“I will, Karin. Don't worry, I will never fail you.” Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
“Good.”
Karin takes some money out from her pocket and hands it to him, “Take it.”
“No, no, I have money.”
“Save it. Take it and just think that I lend this to you.”
The eyes of the Jacob turn red, and he nods and says in a choked voice, “Alright, when I get my salary, I will definitely pay you back!”
Robert and Billie return. He walks up to Karin and whispers lightly, “Mr. Troy said that he has kept his promise and wants you to return to Ziteng Garden tonight.”
Karin is startled for seconds, “I understand.”
“Then are you leaving now? Let me drive you?”
“No, I'll take a taxi by myself later.”
“Okay then.”
As soon as Robert leaves, Karin says to Billie and Jacob, “Let’s go, to celebrate what happened today. let's go get a drink.”
They come to a small restaurant near the school. Billie and Jacob drink a lot, but the person who suggested drinking to celebrate does not dare to drink, because the bitter taste in the mouth will make her want to cry.
Halfway through, her phone rings. She stares at the number for a while, and croaks, “Take your time, I'm leaving first.”
“Okay, bye…”
Billie is already drunk, so is Jacob. Everyone is drunk, except her, who is sober all alone.
When she returns to Ziteng Garden, Karin feels a little breathless. She stands in the middle of the garden, looking up at the bright window upstairs, her eyes gradually becoming wet.
Once there is a crack in love, even at the place where you have felt happy once will become a prison that cages you.
At this moment, she thinks that Ziteng Garden is like a cage to imprison her. It seems that she will be unable to fly out in her entire life.
