Capture Your Heart

Chapter 101 Crazy in the Rain 3

"Okay, you have a strong personality. I admire spirited people. For this, you can rest assured that I will unconditionally support your relationship with Troy."

Looking suspiciously at the opposite man, she can't fully believe what he said. After all, he looks so unfathomable.

"Thank you, can I go back then?"

"Okay, be free to come here. Just treat here as your own home."

Emmanuel shouts, "Young, send Miss. Karin back."

Karin comes out of the villa. She is a little confused. She can't believe that someone in the Charles family would support her to be with Troy. Thinking of the large group of killers who rushed up the mountain before, Karin thinks Emmanuel seems too different...

Soon after she returns to Ziteng Garden, Troy also comes back.

As soon as Troy enters the garden, Karin greets him, grabs his arm and says, "I have something very serious to tell you."

"What's up?"

"I was invited by someone from your family today."

Troy looks serious, "Who?"

"Emmanuel."

"My Uncle Emmanuel?"

"Yep!"

He smiles, "It's him."

"What? Emmanuel is a good person?"

"Does he look like a bad guy?"

"No. I feel scared because of this. "

"Why?"

"All the elders in your family are fierce and evil. Only your Uncle Emmanuel is kind and easy to talk. Isn't this too abnormal? As the saying goes, a danger is hidden in a smile. The kinder one looks, the more dangerous he might be."

Troy chuckles and touches her head, "Well done. You keep what I said in mind."

He pauses, "We really can't trust others casually, but Uncle Emmanuel is an exception. He has companied me from childhood. He is the mentor of my life and a person who exists like a father."

"You have a good relationship with him, don’t you?"

"Well, among my four uncles, I have the best relationship with him."

"But didn't he also oppose you and Mia's dissolution of marriage before?"

"Yes, he opposed it. But I didn’t obey him and he couldn’t force me."

Karin shrugs, "Well, if you say he is a good person, then I will believe that he is a good person for the time being. In fact, regardless of his relationship with you, my first impression of him is pretty good. At

least, he seemed to be easy to get along with and he didn't say insulting words to me like ‘Don’t you expect pennies from heaven’."

Troy squeezes her nose, "Don’t tar everyone with the same brush. In fact, besides my eldest uncle, there are still many people in the Charles family who are sensible."

"I don't know if there is anyone in the Charles family who is sensible, but I know like attracts like."

She makes a funny face, then turns and runs back to the room.

Karin is upset when help Troy his luggage at night. She wants to remind him several times that tomorrow is her birthday, but the words die on her lips. She doesn't want to delay his major events because of her.

She can celebrate her birthday every year, but chances are often only once.

"Why are you so unhappy?" Troy finds Karin upset after taking a shower, he asks with concern.

"You are going on a business trip, should I be still very happy?"

He hugs her, "How about going with me?"

"Forget it, you are going to talk about business, not traveling. It's not appropriate for me to go."

"We can take a trip after business."

"No, I don't want to live a life of ease."

Troy really leaves. He leaves early in the morning. He says it is the earliest flight.

Karin doesn't have classes at school today, so she stays in the Ziteng garden boringly. The weather suddenly changes at noon. First there is a strong wind, and then comes a heavy rain.

Billie calls her, "My dear, happy birthday!"

Karin smiles, "Thank you."

"You must have a great time today, right?"

"For what?"

"Are you not happy to have Troy with you on your birthday?"

"He is on a business trip……"

"What! He is on a business trip on your birthday?"

"He doesn't know today is my birthday..." © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

"Shucks! He doesn't even know your birthday?!"

Billie is filled with righteous indignation. Is he really a lover? He's too fuckin’ incompetent.

"Oh, it doesn't matter. He is busy with work. I can understand." Karin defends Troy.

"Well, you always stick up for him. Come down the mountain this afternoon and let’s celebrate your birthday."

Karin glances at the heavy rain outside the window, and say lazily, "If the rain stops, I will go. If it doesn't stop, we’ll meet another day."

After hanging up, Karin mumbles, "I don’t know if you have arrived yet? Why don't you even call me."

It rains all afternoon. It doesn't show any sign of stopping. Instead, it gets heavier and heavier.

Naturally, Karin hasn't gone down the mountain either.

In the evening, she gets up early after dinner and sits in front of the small window, feeling very lonely. Why hasn't Troy called her? He has said that he will call her when he arrives.

Why, why does he let her down every time...

She throws the phone aside and resists the urge to call him. Some famous author once said, 'After a man thoroughly understands a woman, he will not love her. Therefore, she should not let him think that she can't do without him.'

"I'm having a good time with no worries now. My days are like a leisurely water plant, and I'm not afraid of being disturbed by memories...."

The phone suddenly rings. Karin is only surprised for a second. The next second, she is upset, because it is not Troy.

Picking up the phone, she finds it is from her family. She cheers up and answers quickly.

"Hello?" she says in a timid voice, not sure if it is her mother or father who is calling her.

"Karin, it's me."

"Mom--"

Karin chokes out. This is the first time she hears her mother's voice in one month in Zurich.

"Today is your birthday. I just want to say happy birthday to you."

"Thank you, Mom, thank you." Karin’s eyes are full of tears, "How are you and dad?"

"We are fine. You called back the last few times. Your dad hung up when he heard your voice. He was stubborn and couldn't let it go, but he stopped trying to go to you anymore. So, just give him more time.

He will forgive you one day."

"Yes, I know."

"Has Barry called you? He seems to be unwilling to give up on you and keeps coming to our home."

"Yes. But I didn't answer it."

"Well. I can see it clearly now. His mom is bloody-minded and difficult. If you really marry him, you won't have a good life."

"Did she go to make trouble again?"

Karin’s mother signs, "She came here twice when you first left. Then she found we ignore her and didn't come anymore."

Karin bites her lip and tries her best not to let her shed tears. Even if her mother doesn't say it, she knows that Barry's mother must have said something awful...

"Well, I take advantage of your dad to go out to buy cigarettes to make a call. He might be back soon. I will hang up first."

"OK. Take care of yourself!"

Jane holds the phone tightly, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Is he... good to you?"

"He is very nice to me." Karin replies softly with her heart jolting.

"That's good. Take care of yourself."

The familiar beep echoes in her ears. It is not an illusion. When her mother finishes speaking, she cries...

So, Karin also cries.

Mom, I didn't lie to you. He is really good to me, but occasionally, he would not remember me.

The door is knocked, Karin wipes away her tears and shouts, "Come in."

"Miss, someone outside is here to send flowers, and you need to sign for them yourself."

"Flowers?"

She looks extremely surprised. Who would give her flowers in this dark night with heavy rain?

Is it Billie? Karin can only think so.

Karin goes downstairs in confusion and Yuma holds an umbrella for her. They walk straight towards the door.

"Hello, here are a hundred red roses, please check and sign."

"A hundred..." Karin is startled, "Who bought it?"

"I don't know. I'm a flowers delivery guy."
