Capture Your Heart

Chapter 196 Opposite of “I Love You” 4

She shrugs her shoulders. “I’ve got enough circles.”

“What? 9,999 circles?”

“Yep. I’m the best.”

“Why didn’t you tell me?”

“I finished my last circle when you were sleeping.”

“I was sleeping? Troy narrows his eyes. “You didn’t sleep for the circles?” From NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yes, but I slept late at night.”

She doesn’t tell him she has stayed up for three whole nights to draw the circles.

“Now I see.”

“What?”

“I see it that you don’t care about me now because you’ve known for certain that you’ve got me in your pal, don’t you?”

She smiles. “I wish I could do so.”

“Don’t you? I won’t be so angry if you can love me harder.”

“Come on, Troie, you know how much I love you. She circles her arms around his neck and looks at him affectionately, saying, “Every time I visited a temple on my trip in India, I prayed to the Buddha that I wish I’d marry you in all my reburns.”

“What if you only have this life?”

“I’ll marry you in this life.”

She’d appreciate it if she could spend her lifetime with him for once.

Troy kisses her. “You know what? I’m touched by the way you look at me at the moment. I’m drown in your eyes.”

Her tears begin to well up as she buries herself into his hug, silently looking at the moon.

Troy breaks the silence first and asks her, “Can you tell me the stories you heard in India?”

She apologizes, “Sorry, but I’ve forgotten them all.”

“What?”

“As soon as I see your face, I forget them all.”

“You mean I’m more charming than the monks?”

“Maybe.”

Troy is rendered speechless. “Guess it’s time to go to bed.”

“Wait for a while.”

Troy closes his eyes. “Fine.”

Karin nudges him. “Are you sleeping?”

“No, what’s the matter?”

“I want to tell you something I met on the trip.”

“Okay.”

“I met a woman of my age, and she loves her boyfriend very much but she cheated on him by accident. She wanted to tell her boyfriend the truth, but she was afraid that her boyfriend would break up with her. If you were her boyfriend, would you forgive her?”

Troy sighs, “Has she slept with another man?”

“Maybe…”

“I don’t know. I’m not her boyfriend.”

“What if you were her boyfriend, would you forgive her?”

Karin looks at him with anticipation. Her heart beats faster than it when Troy first kissed her.

“I wouldn’t.”

Karin’s heart stutters as he answers without any doubt. Billie and Robert are right. Troy won’t forgive her. She should’ve known the answer since Troy is a man hates all the people betrays him.

“Despite all the things, cheating a kind of betrayals. Women can’t sleep with other men when she’s in a relationship with her lover.”

“But it was an accident, and she really loves her boyfriend. She was set up by bad guys.”

“Then she should have told her boyfriend and believed he’d forgive her.”

Troy asks again, “How could she be set up? Did she have an enemy?”

Karin shakes her head. “She didn’t know…”

“How could she tell you she was set up?”

“I didn’t ask her for details…”

“Well, it’s hard to say. Lucky you are not her.”

Troy’s last words breaks Karin’s heart…

She rises to her feet. “Let’s go to bed.”

“Your hands are cold.”

“Staying outside for too long tonight.”

He hugs her tighter. “Told you not to get outside.”

It is just another sleepless night for Karin as her destiny is way too cruel. When she decides to tell Troy everything, for some reasons, she has hide them away again.

She sits in the Ziteng garden on the next afternoon, upset about the words last night Troy said.

Yuma walks to her with a bowl in her hand. “Miss Karin, have some porridge, please.”

Karin thanks her and takes over the bowl.

“Are you worried about something? Is there anything I can do to help you?”

“No.”

She asks gently, “Yuma, is your husband in Zurich now?”

“Yes. Three generations of people in my family have been hired by the Charlie family. To some extent, we’re local people.”

“So you fell in love as you attracted each other?”

“Yeah, and we knew each other when we were young.”

“Have you ever had a fight?”

“No.” Yuma knows what she implicates and gently smiles. “Don’t be worried. Nothing will change after you get married. Troy will always love you.”

“Do you have some secrets you can’t tell your husband?”

“Of course.”

She slightly sighs, “Close as we are, I can’t tell him everything about me.”

Karin gets more disappointed as she wonders if love can be so fragile that it’d be destroyed by a little secret.

Upset and gloomy, she clicks into Chongwa Talent Network and applies for all the jobs she’s qualified for. She tells herself that as soon as she gets a new job, she’ll leave here.

There’s no denying that, at the moment, she wants to run away from Troy.

Then she spends the whole afternoon applying for jobs.

In the evening, she waits for Troy at the doorway as she has promised him.

Before she leaves the house, she practices her sweet smile time and time again until she’s satisfied.

Staring at the stars, she is standing at the doorway to wait for Troy when her phone vibrates in her pocket. She takes it out and finds a new message from a strange number. She’s shocked when she clicks it open…

She’s so weak that her loose legs can’t support her, and she falls down to sit on the floor.
