Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 192

“Brown-nose…”

Troy is contemplating Karin’s words as she stares at him and asks, “What?”

“Your dad wants your fiancé to brown-nose him?”

“It seems so.”

“Okay, I’ve got it.”

“What?”

“How to make your father like me.”

“How?”

“Butter him on in his presence and let his daughter please me in return…”

“How dare you!”

Karin coyly throws her fists at his shoulders. Troy can’t help but laugh out loud.

“I’m kidding, okay?”

“But I’m not your servant.”

“Stupid girl, I want you to please me in the bed…”

Karin bashfully blushes and clenches her fists to hit him again, but Troy quickly catches her hands and twist them behind against her back as he bends down to kiss her.

“Hold on!”

Troy darkens his face. “What’s wrong with you? You haven’t made love to me since yesterday.”

He looks pathetic and disappointed.

She won’t make love with him unless she gets the simple words from him.

“No…”

“What else do you want? I’ve allowed you to take a trip on your own.”

He arches his brow. “I swear to kill you if you have more requests…”

“No more requests. Just want to tell you something.”

“Good. Say it.”

“Can you kiss me on my forehead?”

Dumbfounded as he is, he immediately presses his lips against her forehead.

“Do you remember its meaning?”

“I Forgive you.”

Karin’s tears trickle down her cheeks, and Troy gets shocked. “What’s the matter? Why to cry?”

“You just kiss my forehead, which means you’ll always forgive me no matter what I’ve done, will you?”

“What do you want to tell me?”

“Just answer me.”

Troy sighs, “Yes, I will. I’ll always forgive you.”

Karin smiles at him through the veil of tears and whispers to his ear, “What I want to tell you is…I love you.”

Troy feels exhilarated. Cheesy as it might be, it’s the first time that she has told him she loves him.

“I love you, too.”

“Promise me, Troy, you’ll never abandon me…”

“Okay, I promise…”

After the pleasant and wonderful sex, Karin stretches out beside Troy, feeling loose-limbed.

Troy has fallen asleep while she can’t. She’s under huge pressure, so she wants to hide away like a coward.

Hiding in a place where nobody knows her, she can focus on the deliberation. She once joked with Troy that she’d leave him alone at home to reflect on his past and present. She can’t believe she’s under the same circumstance now.

At the dawn of the next day, Karin secretly gets up and walks to the window to open them. The morning breeze caresses her cheeks as her hair is dancing in the gentle wind.

Karin stands in front of the window, facing the rising sun to enjoy the peaceful serenity for the time being. When the sun has already risen above the horizon, she can’t help but reaches out to grab it as if she has the whole world in her palm.

Then she thinks of a cheesy line for no reason. “When you grab something, you’ve got nothing in your hand, even air can slip away; but when you stretch your palm, the world is in your hand.

She turns around and flashes a bitter smile at the sleeping man.

Troy never thinks that she can leave for the trip so fast as he wakes up to find her packing her suitcase. “Are you leaving?”

She slowly looks up at him. “Are you going to break your promise?”

“No, I just wonder why are you in a hurry?”

“I’ve already booked my flight ticket.”

“Where?”

“India.”

“A month?”

“Yep.”

Troy nods. “You’re a dead body if you’re not cured in a month.”

Troy drives her to the airport after breakfast. Karin calls Billie before boarding.

“Hello?”

“Billie, will you temporarily stay here, out of Britain? I’m leaving here for a while.”

“Leave here? Aren’t you getting married?”

“We get the wedding delayed. I’m not in the mood, and I’ll take a trip by myself to get relaxed.”

“Because of that thing?”

“Yep.”

Billie sighs, “What do you worry about?”

“To lie to him forever or tell him the truth. Anyway, I have to figure it out first before the wedding.”

Billie knows she has made up her mind. “…Well, take care!”

“Thanks.”

She adds before hanging up, “Remember our motto. Go for it, and we’ll be happy!”

“Go for it…”

It’s time for the boarding. Karin walks slowly to Troy and takes the suitcase over from his hands. “I’m leaving. Take care.”

Troy holds her tight in his arms. “I’ll call you every day. Don’t forget it.”

Tears welling up in Karin’s eyes, she nods in his hug.

With her suitcase in her hand, Karin goes ahead step by step, not looking back. Every time they get separated, it hurts so much…
