Capture Your Heart

Chapter 95 An Enchanting Night 5

"Are you from Shanghai?"

"Yes."

"Do you have brothers or sisters?"

"No, I am the only child in my family."

"It's not easy for a girl to live abroad. Do you miss your family?" "Yes, very much."

"How many years have you been in Zurich?"

"More than three years."

As they chat, they reach their destination. Arya stops her car in front of Lily’s villa. When Karin gets out of the car, Arya waves to her and says, "See you later. I'm leaving now."

"Oh, don't you go in?"

Anyway, they are sisters. When she is at her door, she should go and comfort her.

"No, I take no interest in asking about her love affairs."

With that, Arya starts the engine and leaves instantly.

Remembering that Arya never mentioned anything between her and Troy on the way, then Karin knows her character. But she still walks to the door of the villa and rings the doorbell.

The door is opened. The woman standing inside is beautiful, but she looks unhappy.

"Karin..."

Lily is slightly surprised and asks, "Why are you here?"

"Your brother asked me to see you."

Karin walks in and looks at the messy living room in shock because wine bottles are everywhere on the floor and the house is full of the wine smell.

After rolling up her sleeves, she nimbly picks up all the rubbish on the ground and draws back the curtains. In a very short time, she makes the house clean.

Reclining on the sofa, Lily watches Karin busying herself with the job without stopping her. When Karin finishes the cleaning, Lily says with a wry smile, "What a virtuous girl! No wonder my brother shows special favor to you."

Karin sits next to her with her head shyly bowed and asks softly, "Sister Lily, what happened to you?"

"Now you admit that you are my brother's woman, and you even call me Sister Lily."

She becomes more embarrassed and lowers her head shyly.

"I'm fine, but I feel a little unhappy."

Lily sniffs, and her eyes are red.

"Crossed in love?"

In the simple world of Karin, a man and a woman either fall in love or just break up, and there will be no other complicated factors.

"No, I just quarreled with my boyfriend."

She is relieved immediately. It is just quarreling. No lovers won’t quarrel.

"I love him so much. I love him with my heart and soul, but he is always neither affectionate nor aloof to me..."

"Doesn't he love you?"

Lily sobs and shakes her head, saying, "No, he loves me."

"Since he loves you, why does he have to be neither affectionate nor aloof to you?"

"Because he has concerns. He is just an ordinary man with no outstanding family background. He feels so much pressure to be with me."

Karin says a little angrily, "What's wrong with that? True love can transcend the secular world. If he is concerned about the marriage based on equal social ranks, it means that he is a coward and is not worthy of your love."

"You don't understand. I have been with him for almost ten years. Ten years! We broke up and got back together numerous times, but only this time, he broke my heart so deeply."

"Why?"

"Many years ago, when I loved him, I proposed to marry him. He said, ‘Wait a while. You are still young. Let’s talk about this when you are mature in a few years.’ I agreed. Then I waited and waited until now I am not young anymore. I proposed to marry him again, but he said that two people who live together don’t necessarily have a marriage, and there is nothing wrong with the current living status."

"I thought he was still worried about unequal social ranks of our two families and the disparity in status, so I promised him over and over again that I would not let anyone in the Charles family look down upon him, but he still didn't want to marry me. When he got drunk last night, I heard him say the true answer: The reason why he doesn’t want to marry me is just that he dislikes being bound by marriage..."

"He has gone too far!"

Karin can't bear it and says, "This man is a liar indeed. He has been fooling you!"

"No, he's not a liar. He truly loves me. He is just like all other men. He doesn't like to be bound by marriage."

Lily cries extremely helplessly.

"Sister Lily, don't be sad. We don't need men who don't cherish what they have. You are so beautiful, so you are sure to find a man who is willing to marry you."

"Oh, after having loved for so many years, do you think I still have the energy to begin a new relationship? It's impossible. In every country dogs bite. 99% of men don't like to be bound by marriage."

If 99% of men don't like to be bound by marriage, then her man Troy must be among the 0.1% of men.

Karin thinks and firmly believes this idea.

Lily opens a bottle of wine and ignoring Karin's obstruction, drinks decadently until she gets drunk.

"Karin, my brother loves you…right?"

"Yes."

"But I don't think… he really wants to marry you..."

"It won't be so!"

"You should believe me. I have experience... I've dealt with quite a few men. Men don't like just one woman to bind their freedom, especially men like my brother. He has many ambitions, and he has

many dreams to be realized. He is quite ambitious, so he won’t propose to marry you before he achieves anything. If you mention it first, he will let you wait for him, and then... you will be like me, waiting year after year until you become a sentimental old woman from a heartless little woman. In the end, you will find that you have lost your best years, but you won't get anything..."

Stunned, Karin denies it desperately in her mind, "It won't be like that. Troy Charlie is not a man like that." But she can't utter a word.

"If you don't believe... you can ask him... haha...haha..."

Lily Charlie falls asleep while smiling and crying.

Karin looks at her sleeping face quietly, feeling quite uneasy.

When she met the woman the first time, she only thought that she was beautiful and charming, especially her extremely seducing eyes.

When she observes her closely at this moment, she sees thin wrinkles at these seducing eyes. One can wait for the coming of love, but time waits for no man. Time will leave its marks mercilessly on every one as it passes.

Troy calls her and says, "Karin, what is the situation?"

"She is asleep. Come and pick me up." C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Her voice is calm, but she is not calm. It is obvious that Troy’s decision of asking her to come here is not the right decision because she did not adjust Lily’s mood successfully. More seriously, she gets herself affected by her and ends up in a bad mood.

The person who finally comes to pick her up is not Troy but Robert.

She is depressed when she is in the car, and Robert explains gingerly, "Mr. Troy was going to pick you up in person, but several important clients came unexpectedly, so he had to ask me to replace him."

"Well, it doesn't matter."

She answers absent-mindedly, her thoughts drifting far, far away...

When she is back at Ziteng Garden, it is evening. At that time, the afterglow of the setting sun makes half of the sky red, and the scenery is beautiful.

Lying in bed, Karin tries not to think about what Lily said, but a few bothersome scenes keep appearing in her mind, making her upset.

That's her brother, her biological brother. How could she give such comments to her brother? She’s gone too far. She’s gone too far...

She objects to it in her mind over and over again. She doesn’t like anyone to criticize Troy, even if the person is his sister.

Troy calls her and says gently as soon as he opens his mouth, "Karin."

"Well, what?"

"If I tell you I can't go back to have dinner with you tonight, will you be angry?"

She is startled but replies insincerely, "No."

"Really?"

"Yes..."

"If you are unhappy, you must tell me. Although these clients are quite important, they are nothing compared with you."

Then he implies that she is the most important.

"I'm fine. I will understand you. I mean it."

Troy pauses and says, "Well then, I'll try to get back as soon as possible."

After hanging up the phone, she covers herself from head to toe with a quilt. It's more meaningful to sleep than to fill her head with nonsense!
