Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 144

Billie waves to Karin and says, "Come on. We climb down together."

Karin frowns since she doesn’t know what Billie means. But she follows Karin.

The rocks are like a ladder for them. They help each other and climb down to the foot of the mountain after half of an hour.

"Karin, we make it. You see, there is always a road out if we don’t give up."

Karin eventually knows what Billie means. She smiles and says, "You are very helpful."

"Indeed."

Billie sit on somewhere clean with Karin. She says, "Robert told me everything about you and Troy. At the beginning, I was angry. But later on, I can understand Troy. He marries Mia not because of love but revenge. If you don’t get rid of those bad people, you will be in danger. Troy or you may be killed one day. So, why not do something you dislike now to avoid being murdered?"

"What if he marries Mia? What should I do?"

Regardless of what others tell her, Karin only cares about what she should do if he marries Mia.

Billie shrugs, "Then let him marry Mia. If I were you, I could accept it. What I want is not a marriage certificate. Instead, what I want is the one I love loves me."

"So, you will be willing to have an affair with Robert if he marries Gigi?"

"Sure."

Karin mocks her, "Billie, you don’t know what I feel because you are not in my shoes. If you are in love, you will hope that he only belongs to you. When you are in my shoes, you will realize how foolish your words are."

"You might be right."

Billie doesn’t want to argue with her since she really doesn’t know how painful Karin feels.

"You promised you would stay, so please be stronger and happy. He will be upset to see you like this," Billie adds.

"Did him ask you to visit me?"

"It was Rebert."

Karin pauses for a moment and then she nods. She says, "I see."

"What do you see?"

"I see what I should to stop you feeling upset for me."

Karin tells herself, no matter how she is sad and agonized, she can’t show it. She chooses to stay and she should pay a price for it.

They climb up the summit of the mountain when the night comes. Billie calls Robert. 20 minutes later, Robert arrives at the Ziteng Garden by car.

"Karin, promise me you won’t isolate yourself again."

"I promise."

"Please remember, God shuts your door, often leaving a window for you."

"Sure."

"I should go. Please take care of yourself."

Billie gives her a hug and then gets in Robert’s car.

"How is it going?" Robert asks.

"Great. She says she will be happy soon."

"Thank you."

"You are welcome. She is my friend."

Then, the conversation ends. Robert doesn’t dare to say more, while Billie has too much to say and she doesn’t know what to say.

They arrive at the gate of University of Zurich. When she gets out of the car, she asks him hesitantly, "Do you have a fiancée?"

Robert is surprised by her question first. Then he replies, "Yes".

"Do you like her?’

"It is not your business."

He is often shocked by her straightforwardness.
