Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 174

He slowly squats down and presses on her shoulder, “What happened? Why are you hiding here and crying by yourself?”

“Billie was beaten.”

Troy frowns, “Why?”

“Because we are born to be inferior! So we deserve to be trampled underfoot.”

“Who said this?”

“Your cousin Gigi.”

After a brief astonishment, he quickly understands what is going on, “Is it serious?”

“The injury on the body may not be serious, but the injury on the heart is serious.”

“Are you sad?”

“Yes, I'm sad, shouldn't I be sad?”

He helps her stand up and gently wipes the tears from the corners of her eyes, “Don't be sad, leave it to me to fix it.”

“How do you fix it?”

“I have my way, so, just trust me.”

Karin looks at him quietly, can she really trust him? Can she really pin her hopes on him?

“Okay, then I will thank you for Billie in advance.”

“Don't thank me for her, because I am not doing it because of her, it’s because of you.”

Troy pulls her into his arms, hugs her tightly, and whispers to her ear, “What I fear most is seeing you sad, so Karin, no matter when, if you are tired, you can always rely on me.”

Karin's tears well up in her eyes again. His words really move her, at least, in the state of mind at this moment, hearing this, she is greatly comforted in her heart.

“Okay.”

Troy does what he says, and the next day, he goes to Robert's house.

Face to face with Rex, he straightforwardly says, “Cancel Robert's wedding.”

“Why?” Rex is dumbfounded.

“Because he already has someone he likes, I know your family value your promises. So I am here today in the name of my father to take back what he said back then.”

“But…”

Rex bows his head embarrassedly, “Your Uncle Emmanuel...”

“I will cope with it. You just need to take the initiative to cancel the wedding as I say.”

Troy sees that he still has concerns, so he walks up to him, pats him on the shoulder and says earnestly, “Perhaps it is important to be loyal, but isn't your son's happiness more important?”

After leaving the Gray’s, he drives to Emmanuel's mansion.

Seeing his sudden arrival, Emmanuel asks wonderingly, “Why is my nephew so free to come here today?”

“Uncle Emmanuel, I come to discuss something with you.”

“Oh, what's it?”

“It's about Gigi and Robert.”

“What’s the matter with them?”

“Do you think they are in love?”

Emmanuel pauses for a while, and nods, “They should be. After all, it has been settled down since they were just children.”

“Being Settled down does not mean that they must fall in love. At least, Robert doesn't love Gigi.”

“What did you say?”

“Can't you tell? He has no love for Gigi at all?”

“Did he say it himself?”

“He has been with me for so many years. I know better than anyone else what he is thinking. To tell you the truth, he already has someone he likes.”

Emmanuel's deep eyes stare at him straightly. He doesn’t speak for a while.

“I come here today, just to hope that you will cancel their wedding.”

“Do you think it's possible? The invitations have all been sent. Can our Charles family lose this face?”

“But compared to two people living together without love for a lifetime, our face shouldn't be that important, should it?”

Emmanuel lights a cigar and shakes his head, “Even if there is no love, this wedding cannot be canceled, because Gigi will not be willing to.”

“You can't spoil her anymore. Two days ago, she beat up the woman Robert loves and said something really mean. This is not venting the anger in her heart. This is tarnishing the reputation of Charles family.”

“Troy, Gigi is your sister.”

“I know she is my sister, but love does not equal to spoiling, or she will never learn to be tolerant.”

“Stop it. I can promise you anything, except for this, there is no room for negotiation!”

Emmanuel takes a long puff at cigar and spits out a thick smoke ring.

“Whether you agree or not, I won't let this wedding happen.”

Troy gets up to say goodbye, and within two steps, he hears a smash behind him, which seems to be the sound of a cup falling to the ground.

“Troy, I have always been proud of you, but I didn't expect you to disappoint me so much today!”

He slowly turns around, “I'm sorry, I know that you have cared for me since I was young, but regarding certain things, please forgive me for not giving way.”

Bad news has wings.

The news that Troy wants to break up the marriage of Gigi and Robert quickly spreads throughout Charles family, and the first one who cannot tolerate it is certainly Milan.

Even if it is dark, she is going out furiously. She drives to Ziteng Garden and shouts as soon as she walks in, “Troy, come out!”

Troy and Karin are having dinner. They suddenly hear the voice of Milan and he knows what is going on right away. He calmly says to the woman beside him, “Go upstairs, let me deal with it.”

After walking out of the dining room, he sees Milan sitting on the sofa. Seeing him coming out, she steps forward angrily, “Are you crazy? You asked Uncle Emmanuel to cancel the wedding of Gigi and Robert. You are blatantly provoking Dad’s will, aren’t you?”

“His will? What will? Do you think that the king's orders can’t be violated? You keep things that shouldn't be kept all the time. Do you feel happy when you see everyone else is not?”

“How do you know that they are not happy? Your own relationship is messed up, and now you want to intervene in other people's. Let me tell you, this time I will never indulge you again!”

Huh, Troy sneers, “What about you? Is your own relationship not messy? Don't you intervene in other people's? Not to mention your intervention in mine, now even my assistant’s. Are you too idle? ?”

“What I care about is my sister's love life, not your assistant's!”

They are arguing fiercely, and there are footsteps coming from outside the door. Karin has been hiding at the stairs. She takes a look hearing the sound. It is Sis Lily and Sis Arya. Even they are here. She can't help but starts to worry about Troy that he is outnumbered.

“You always care about things you shouldn't care about, and don't care about what you should care about. Your sister is so amazing, and she even beat others. Why don't you care?”

“She did it right. That vixen should be beaten. Others don’t know her; don’t I know her either? I wanted to teach her a lesson last time at University of Zurich. I just forgot because I was so busy with other things. This time Gigi did a good job. It seems that she also stood up for me!”

“Troy, I can't help you this time.”

Lily's expression is rather displeased, “Last time I was in the hospital, I was very surprised by the girl named Billie. How could she hug Robert unscrupulously in front of a bunch of people? Didn't she know that Robert is engaged?”

“What's wrong with being engaged? Can’t I like others if I'm engaged?”

Milan points at him with her finger, “How dare you to say that! Robert is influenced by such kind of idea. Where do your idea come from? It is obviously instilled by Karin. These two vixens are obviously in collusion. They have planned to seduce one of you each. It’s pissing me off!”

Arya, who has been silent for a long time, also speaks at this moment, “Troy, Gigi is our cousin. Who cares about that girl named Billie? She is not relatives to us, why do you help her go against Uncle Emmanuel?”

“I told you he has been bewitched by the vixen. You didn’t believe it. See? Since the vixen showed up, the whole Charles family hasn't rested for a day. Unfortunate things continuously happened. About Gigi's wedding, it must have been instructed by the vixen again!”

“Enough!”

Troy roars angrily, “Whoever says vixen again gets out of here immediately. Even if it's my sister, nobody can insult my woman!”

Karin watches this from a distance, and there are signs of the ice melting in her heart. She likes to see Troy protecting her. At that moment, she can forget all the injuries and the pain is slowly replaced by love…
