Capture Your Heart

Chapter 289 Ending of the Story 4

She doesn’t expect that Troy and Molly will come.

"Troy..."

She calls out his name blankly. After a brief shock, she suddenly understands the purpose of the meal today. She understands it at the moment when she sees Troy step into the room.

Fortunately, she reacts quickly enough that her enemies don’t see her weird looks. Hearing her calling, Troy walks in front of her indifferently and sits beside William.

All of a sudden, Karin gets up and walks up to him. She shakes his shoulders, "I am Karin. Look at me, do you still don't know me?"

Troy takes away her hands on his shoulder and says coldly, "Don't touch me."

Troy’s fourth uncle and Troy’s fifth uncle are taken aback by Troy's indifferent attitude. Feeling shock, they look at each other and then continue to stare at Troy, as if they want to see something from Troy's eyes.

Karin's shed. She turns her back, covering her face with her hands. Then she runs out of the room while crying. After a long time, she comes back again. When she comes back, her both eyes are red and swollen because of crying. Sure enough, she sees the surprise and confusion in Emmanuel's eyes.

Her acting skills are getting better under the pressure of the enemies. She successfully confuses the enemies.

"Troy, do you really remember nothing? She’s your wife!"

Emmanuel's acting skills are not bad. If Karin doesn’t know about his real face, she will be deceived by his sad looks now.

"I've said it many times I don't know her, including you guys. I don't know anyone present here."

He turns his head to Molly beside him, "Why are you taking me here?"

"They are all your uncles and your families. They want to see you, so I have to agree."

Molly explains helplessly.

Troy looks up and sweeps around coldly. Then he stands up and says, "Let's go, in my eyes, my only family is you."

"Troy."

Karin stops him, "Since you’re here, shall we have a meal together?"

She stops him with the pleading look in her eyes. But Troy indifferently refuses, "I don't like dining with so many people, especially strangers."

"We are not strangers."

"In my eyes, she is not a stranger. As for you, I don't know or don't want to know who you are."

He points to Molly.

Emmanuel sighs and says to Molly, "Since my nephew only gets close to you, please persuade him to have a meal with us. Maybe he stays with Karin for a while, he will recover his memory a little sooner."

Molly nods and holds Troy's hand in front of Karin. She says, "Troy, please stay here for a while and have a meal with them. If you don't agree, your uncles will blame mine."

Troy hesitates for a while, and says, "Okay, I’ll listen to you."

William looks at the two meaningfully and slowly moves his gaze to Karin. Compared with the confusion in Emmanuel's eyes, his eyes seem much calmer. Karin couldn't help feeling a little flustered.

They are seated. Emmanuel lets the waiter serve the dishes. After the dishes are ready, he casually asks Molly, "Miss Molly, I am very curious how you found my nephew. We had no news even though we’ve searched him for a long time."

Molly smiles and answers earnestly, "You also know that Troy saved my life five years ago, so we are just like brother and sister for the past few years. He encountered danger on the boat that day, so he called me and asked me to find someone to support him. When I went by the yacht, the tanker had not driven away. A sailor on the boat told me that Troy jumped into the sea. At that time, he was shot. We searched for him according to the bloodstain he left. Finally, we really found him."

"Oh, well."

Emmanuel asks with concern, "How is he now? Does he get hurt?"

"He's much better now. His left shoulder got hurt, but it's nothing serious." Molly replies.

"That's good. Thank goodness."

The meal spends in an embarrassed atmosphere. Countless times, Troy wants to look at Karin, but he’s stopped by the strong will in his mind. He can’t let his plans fail for a momentary impulse.

After the meal, Emmanuel says to the waiter who is cleaning up the tables, "A few cups of coffee, please!"

Karin is quite surprised. She has come here to have meals with Troy a few times before. She has never known that they provide coffee. Is it a newly added benefit?

After a while, the two waiters walk in with the trays and deliver the coffee in the trays to the guests one by one. When they walk in front of Karin, a cup of hot coffee falls down on Karin’s body. The hot coffee splashes on the back of her hand. Karin suddenly screams in pain. The back of her hand swells in the blink of an eye.

Troy, who is sitting next to her, is just about to get up. Karin hurriedly signals Troy with her eyes. Troy looks away and put on an indifferent expression.

"So sorry. I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to..."

The waiter’s face pales with fright. He’s wiping off the coffee with a tissue, and keeps apologizing.

"What are you doing? Spill the coffee on the guests! It's still such hot coffee. Is this W Restaurant's service?"

Emmanuel slaps the table, which makes the waiter's face paler. Except for a more sincere apology, the waiter almost kneels down to Karin.

William walks over, grabs Karin's burned hand and says, "Don't just apologize. Go to take some scald ointment."

"Okay, I'll go now."

The waiter runs quickly. William carefully checks the back of Karin’s swollen hand. The concern looks in his eyes are obvious. Emmanuel looks a little unhappy, but he does not stop William. Troy’s fourth uncle and Troy’s fifth uncle stares at Karin and Troy, wanting to see if they will make eye contact.

After the waiter brings over the ointment, William squeezes a little bit onto the back of her hand. Just when he wants to apply it evenly with his fingers, Karin withdraws hand, "I can do it myself."

Because she knows she is acting, she doesn't want to make Troy feel uncomfortable. He watches her hand burned, but he can only pretend to be indifferent, which is already a cruel and painful thing. If he sees another man holding her hand and applying medicine evenly on her hand, he will be more uncomfortable and painful. She’s reluctant to make him sad. Although she will be sad too when she watches Molly holding his hand.

"Don't force yourself."

William stubbornly grabs her hand, and holds tighter to prevent her from having the chance to withdraw her hand. He carefully applies the ointment to her hand.

The atmosphere in the private room suddenly becomes very weird. Everyone has their own thoughts. Although Troy's expression is still cold, Karin can feel his body shivering.

After William applies the medicine evenly, Karin gets up and says, "I'm going to the bathroom."

She stays in the bathroom for a long time. But she is actually standing next to the sink in the bathroom and panting. It’s too thrilling just now. Troy almost rushes over instinctively. Fortunately, she is calm enough and stops him in time. Otherwise, Emmanuel's trick will success.

There is the sound of footsteps behind her. She comes to her sense and turns on the faucet. Then she is washing her hands in a daze.

Suddenly, a hand reaches out and turns off the faucet.

She looks sideways and sees it is William. She asks angrily, "Why did you turn off the faucet?"

William sighs and points to her hand, saying, "Even if you don't like the medicine I applied to your hand, you don’t need to be so eager to wash it off."

Karin is shocked. She forgets that there’s still the medicine on the back of her hand. She is suddenly embarrassed and speechless. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

"What do you think of me?" He asks nonsensically.

"Not good." She replies irritably.

"That's right. Do you think it’s worth it if you can't get along well with a bad person like me?"

"I do not have…"

"No? Maybe I see it wrong? Even if I see it wrong, the water on your hand hasn't dried yet."

Karin is dumbfounded by his teasing. She flushes and says, "Boring." She turns and walks out of the bathroom.

But after she walks two steps, her arm is suddenly pulled by William. She turns her head and asks angrily, "What are you doing?"

"He hasn't lost his memory, has he?"

A light sentence is like an airborne bomb, which instantly makes Karin feel dumbfounded. She tries to calm the panic. She stammers, "You...you don't need to mock me."
