Capture Your Heart

Chapter 226 The Most Unexpected Reunion 3

Karin clearly feels sad tears falling on the pillow, so cold. She closes her eyes and pretends that she doesn't care. When the heart full of thoughts can no longer withstand any waves, no one is allowed to approach the love that they can't understand even with their heart, so that she can be in peace. And she doesn't want to choose to move on, drawing a full stop here. Then she has nothing to do with love, and nothing to do with him.

Karin calls Robert the next day. When they met yesterday, he left his phone number so that she could contact Billie in the future.

The call is quickly connected, and Robert doesn't know who is calling, "Hello? Who?"

"Hello, Robert. This is me, Karin."

"Oh Miss Karin, what's the matter?" Robert is surprised.

"I want to ask why Troy comes to Edinburgh this time?"

"He wants to open a branch here."

"Then where does he live?"

She prays that he will not say those three words, but the result is not as expected. Robert replies quickly, "Star River Community."

All of a sudden, Karin's hair stands on end, and she is stunned.

"What's happening?"

"It's okay, will you stay here for a long time?"

"This is difficult to determine. At least we have to be here until all the preliminary works are arranged."

"I know…"

She is about to hang up, and Robert yells anxiously, "Wait a minute."

"If you want to meet Mr. Troy..."

"No, I don't want to see him!"

Karin takes a deep breath and says, "I hope you don't tell him about my call to you, please."

Hanging up the phone, she already has a plan in her heart.

In the evening, when she returns home from work, she takes off her coat and sits on the sofa in the living room. She puts her arms around her daughter who is watching cartoons and says, "Esme, we may be moving again..."

"Why?" Esme is puzzled.

"Because the rent here is too expensive."

"Isn't mom the section chief? Isn't your salary very high?"

"But mom wants to save some money for Esme to study abroad in the future."

Shen Esme rolls her eyes, "That should be a long time from now."

"Don't you want to move?"

"Yes."

She nods frankly, "I like here. At where I used to live, the big yellow dog in the house next door always stares at me, and I hate it..."

"We don't move to the original place. I will find another place."

"Do you have to move?"

"Yes…"

"Well, OK. Anyway, I am the most obedient child in the world."

Karin kisses her forehead heartily and her eyes fill with guilt. Usually, as long as Esme likes, she will satisfy her, but now, she has no courage to live in the same apartment with that man, and no courage to meet him by chance.

Karin calls a colleague. Her colleague says that there is an empty house near her house that might be rented out, so Karin immediately decides to take a look after dinner. The sooner she moves away, the better she will be. As a result, she will never have so many worries in her dream. No, it should be that she can sleep at night. Since knowing that Troy lives here, she can't sleep at all at night. When she closes her eyes, all she thinks of is him, and she can't drive it away...

After dinner, she tells the nanny to look after Esme, and then takes the bag out of the apartment.

She lives on the sixth floor now, and as soon as she gets out of the elevator, she sees a person standing outside the elevator. That person is the one she doesn't want to see and is most afraid to see at this moment.

When they meet for the second time, Karin finally believes how right she chooses to move.

They have met twice in the same apartment in just three days, and the frequency of such encounters is beyond her acceptable range. If things go on like this, Troy will see the panic in her eyes sooner or later.

She still pretends not to know him, and walks past him silently. Troy doesn't enter the elevator immediately. He ponders for a moment, then turns his back to her and asks, "Isn't William living here?"

She stiffens, and says, "This is my personal business."

"Why do you come here to find him after you leave me? Don't you believe that the child is not his?"

He finally can't hold back, turns around and asks angrily.

It's been five years. He has asked this question countless times in his heart, but he only asked it in his heart. He never thought they would meet again, so he never expected he could listen to her answer.

Karin sneers and irritates him deliberately, "You don't want my baby, it doesn't mean that others don't. He says that no matter whether the baby is his or not, he will take it as if he has."

"You mean William, right?"

"Since you understand, why bother to ask?"

As she expected, Troy's eyes burst out with raging fire. No matter how had he has practiced his poker face in the past few years, facing this woman he once loved so much, he can't control his emotions.

He steps forward and squeezes Karin's wrist. He asks, "Is the child really his?"

"What right do you have to ask if this child belongs to him? It doesn't matter whether this child belongs to him or not, it has nothing to do with you, right?"

She resists the sorrow, bites her lower lip, and does not allow herself to shed half a tear in front of this man.

There is something that is a knot if you don't mention it and is a scar if you make it clear. However, when you unite that knot, you will realize that a flower has already bloomed there. Feelings are sometimes just a person's own business, and have nothing to do with anyone. Love, or not to love, can only be decided on its own.

"If it is none of my business, why are you afraid of meeting me? Why do your eyes blink when you see me?"

He finds it, he still finds it. Karin's tears finally couldn't help falling down. She hates herself. She tries so hard to cover up, but her disguise is easily torn by this man. Looking at his provocative eyes, she wants to tell him, yes, the child is his. But she can't say that. She sacrifices her best years to entangle with him in the past, and in the years to come, she doesn't want to continue to entangle with him because of the child.

"Don't dream, that child has nothing to do with you! She is William's child."

Troy's heart is suddenly like being cut by a knife. The fact that he has long deliberately ignored is said by her. He cannot accept it.

"I'm not interested in who the child's father is. Karin, don't think I haven't forgotten you. I don't love you anymore. So, don't think those cruel remarks will hurt me! I'm not the Troy who loved you deeply!"

He releases her wrist and opens the elevator. The woman behind him bursts into tears. She would rather bite her lips and bleed than cry. If meeting again means to hurt each other, then she would rather not see him in this life.

"Mom…"

A childish voice comes from the elevator, and Esme sprints to her mother, "You forgot to bring your phone."

Karin wipes away the tears on her face quickly and says in a hoarse voice, "Why do you run out, where is the nanny?"

"Auntie is washing the dishes. Your phone is ringing. It is your colleague who says the house has been rented out and let me tell you."

She winks at Esme and motions her not to talk. Troy has been standing at the elevator entrance, listening to their conversation clearly. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

"Why? Knowing that I live here, you feel ashamed of me, so you want to move out?"

"What am I ashamed of you?" Her tears came again.

Troy doesn't speak, just moves his gaze to Esme. With just such a look, she understands what he means.

"For you, I have had a clear conscience."

Raising her daughter's hand, she walks into the elevator with a blank face, and presses 6 heavily.

The elevator door is about to close, but Troy blocks it with one hand, "Since you are not ashamed, then don't try to escape. Let me see your clear conscience!"

Karin looks at him angrily, and after a long time she says, "Don't worry, I will never run away again!"

Troy releases his hand and the elevator door slowly closes. Finally, they can't see each other. Finally, they no longer have to attack each other to hide their love for each other.

She feels really uncomfortable. Like being blocked by something, Karin doesn't want to cry in front of her daughter, so she endures it desperately. Then, she cries after her daughter falls asleep like countless nights.
