Capture Your Heart

Chapter 215 The True Identity of William 4

Karin asks indifferently, "Don't you plan to explain who you are?"

The man walking ahead of her pauses and turns around, "Ten years ago, I ran away from home because of some conflicts with my father. Then I went to Zurich. Fearing that my father would find me, I have been using the name of William."

In Karin’s opinion, when it comes to others’ family matters, she neither needs nor has the right to ask for too much information about them. Whatever the man in front of her is William or Caleb Shelton, it has nothing to do with her. So as for whether what he said is true or not, she won’t bother to get to the bottom of it.

"Got it."

Karin's indifferent attitude surprises William. So he says, "Aren't you planning to ask me why I left Zurich?"

"You surely had a reason to do so. And it has nothing to do with me."

"If I said I left Zurich because of you, would you believe me?"

She snorts coldly, "I have long stopped believing you. You have implicated me to such an extent. How dare you ask whether I believe you?"

William smiles dejectedly, says goodbye to her, and leaves gloomily.

The room is quiet as it used to be. Karin goes to the window, gazing at the bright moon outside the window. It is said that despite the many stars, there exists only a unique moon in the world. At this moment, Karin wonders whether someone else is watching the moon as well.

Originally, she was eager to get an answer. However, after meeting William in the end, she suddenly doesn’t want to know the answer, thinking that since the situation has come to this point, it doesn’t make any difference at all as to whether she knows the answer or not. Even if William says the child wasn’t his biological child, never can she and Troy go back to their previous days. The way Karin sees it, after one suffers some psychological traumas in a relationship, one won’t recover right away after the misunderstanding is resolved. As she was in a relationship with Troy, she felt so worn out that she got tired of their relationship and that she didn’t have any courage to make fences with him anymore...

A long, long time ago, people like Karin cry and suffer as they are in a relationship. A long, long time later, because of the ones they love, they learn to brace themselves to go forward. So in the end, they figure it out that they can only tend to find someone they love after many hardships and sufferings. In that case, even if they are no longer together with the ones they love, they won’t regret that they once fought hard and laboriously for the ones they love.

Karin goes back to work and works hard every day as she is neither too close to others nor too distant from others. As her belly bulges day by day, some gossip about her pops up as well.

She has long moved out of the Star River Community and no longer enjoys the dining treatment. Despite this, she can’t stop others from judging her haphazardly. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

When it comes to her unmarried pregnancy, others make up a lot of stories about it. Upon hearing the rumors, Karin is sad as well. However, in the company, she never shows her emotions. Because she understands that when it comes to some things, the more she explains, the more complicated the situation will be. She remembers the second story an old monk told her during her trip to India, thinking that as long as she has peace of mind, as for how others think, it won’t affect her.

On a night over the weekend, she lies in bed early and reads a book. Hearing the text-notification sound from her cell phone, she casually takes a look at the sender ID, only to find that it is an

unfamiliar number, which reads, "Go your way regardless of how others judge you. You probably will have a harder time in the future. Even so, I believe that you will be the strongest mother in the world."

She is stunned. It isn’t until a long time later that she edits a text, which reads, “Who are you?” But after deliberation, she deletes the text and puts her cell phone back to the table.

Karin thinks to herself, “As for who the text sender is, I know it in my heart. So why do I have to make an unnecessary move?”

Over the past six months, she deliberately avoids meeting William. But he has been secretly keeping an eye on her, which she is clear about all the time. Even so, she isn’t moved at all.

Glancing at the cell phone on the table, Karin sees that there is a call from the strange number just now. So she hesitates and answers it, "Hello?"

"Can you come out for a moment? I'm outside your house."

"I'm already in bed."

She hangs up the phone indifferently and isn’t in the mood for reading anymore. So she turns off her cell phone, turns off the lights, and falls asleep.

During the night, feeling a little thirsty, she gets out of bed to get water for drinking. Holding a glass of plain water, she habitually stands by the window and is surprised to see that William's car is parked not far away and that he is leaning against the car door.

Karin thinks, “Hasn’t he left yet?”

Feeling incredulous, she frowns and ponders on it for a moment. Then she puts on a coat, walks out of her house, and walks to the front of William, asking indifferently, "What are you doing here?"

"I'm waiting for you."

"Didn't I tell you that I'm already asleep?"

"Then are you sleepwalking now?"

As William retorts teasingly, Karins senses the smell of alcohol on his body. And his eyes are a little red, indicating that he seems to be sad.

Karin asks reluctantly, "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing. I just want to see you. Now that I've seen you, I am much more comfortable in my heart. You should go back to sleep. I'm leaving."

William opens the car door shakily and doesn’t immediately sit in the car. Then he sighs and asks in a hoarse voice, "You surely hate me very much in your heart, right?"

"Did you realize it just now?" Karin hums rudely, turns around, and walks away without ever looking back.

In the blink of an eye, winter is here. And the due date for Karin is getting closer and closer. The weather of the winter days in the north is particularly cold. And Karin, who is accustomed to the warm climate in the south, finds that she is indeed having a hard time, especially at night when she feels cold almost all night while cuddling in the blanket.

Because of her pregnancy, she can’t use an electric blanket and can only hold a hot water sack in her arms every night. Although the heating is on in the house, she still feels cold. And when she feels the coldest, she will fail herself and remember the days in Zurich the last winter when the man she loved most held her tightly in his arms every night...

She will never forget that the thing that can make people the warmest in this world is the body heat of one’s lover.

On a late night in December, Karin is awakened by a stabbing pain as it snows heavily outside. Then she hurriedly turns on the light and lifts the covers to check her situation, only to find that her water has broken and that a large part of the quilt is soaked wet.

She is so shocked that she is in a burst of cold sweat. Yesterday, she went to an agency to find a nanny who said that she would come to work for her the day after tomorrow. Now there are twenty days to go before her due date. How can there be signs of labor?

The pain in her abdomen is getting worse and worse. So she hurriedly takes out her cell phone and intends to call Isobel. However, after she dials the number, unexpectedly, the voice lady over the phone says it has been turned off...

All of a sudden, she is in a panic. Because there is only Isobel’s phone number in her phonebook. As the pain is getting stronger and stronger, beads of sweat are seeping out of her forehead.

She grits her teeth, gets out of bed, and gets dressed quickly, intending to take a taxi to the hospital on her own. It isn’t until she opens the door that she realizes that it is snowing extremely heavily outside and that the cold wind is howling.

In desperation, she suddenly thinks of the fact that William sent her a text last time. Although she didn’t save his phone number, the text is still there. So she hurriedly calls William back. Fortunately, his phone isn’t turned off.

"Hello?"

A magnetic voice rings over the phone, which is tinted with hazy sleepiness, indicating clearly that the speaker has been woken up by the call.

If it hadn't been out of absolute necessity, Karin surely wouldn’t have intended to make this call. After all, she remembers who has put her in such a difficult and helpless situation today.

"I'm going to deliver a baby. Can you come and help me..."

Feeling stunned for a brief moment, the one over the phone immediately says, "I'll be right over!"

Twenty minutes later, William arrives at Karin's place, carries her, who is sitting on the ground in pain, to the car, and quickly rushes to the Maternal and Child Health Hospital.

Before Karin is about to be pushed into the delivery room, she has been pale with pain. Holding her hand, William pants and says, "Come on. You have to come out of there safely. Keep our agreement in mind, that is, after the baby is born, I will tell you the truth..."

Karin bursts out in tears. It is not that she has been moved by William. Instead, it is that she finds out in the most critical moment of her life, the one who is with her is another man instead...
