Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 257

"Not at all. I said that we would meet again five years ago."

"So, you've come to show off your happiness to me, right?"

"That's just your thinking. I never have to show off my happiness."

"Heh, then why did you come? To see if I'm dead? And see if I continue to linger on?"

"I bring this young lady here to get acquainted with you."

Karin points to Molly behind her.

"Who is she?"

Mia looks askance at Molly sharply and eyes her up and down.

"She is the one who wants to follow your suit. And she asked me to persuade Troy to marry her. I couldn't decide for a while. So I wanted to hear your opinion."

The look on Molly's face is gloomy. And she probably doesn’t expect that Karin will mock her like this.

"Hearing my opinion? Heh, what kind of advice can I give you? If you really want to listen to my opinion, then I won't be polite."

Mia hooks her hand at Molly, "Come here."

Molly, who is stunned, doesn’t go over.

"Come over. It's not like I'm going to eat you alive."

Since Molly has said so, if Molly didn’t go over, it would seem that she looked down on Molly. So she moves rather reluctantly and walks over.

"Squat down."

Seeing that she doesn’t move, Mia roars in anger, "I told you to squat down! Can’t you hear me? I do not like to look up to talk to others!"

Molly's heart trembles. Then she slowly squats down. As soon as she squats down, Mia presses her shoulders with her bony hands, "Listen to me, you have to steal Troy at all means. Don’t lose to that woman. Although I failed, it doesn’t mean you will fail. You surely can succeed. Because I will burn incense and pray for you every day, hoping that you can fulfill the wish in your heart as soon as possible as well as that in my heart. Hahaha..."

Molly, who is intimidated by her eerie smile, falls to the ground. And for a long time, she doesn’t come to her senses. After she does, she wants to leave this horrible place. However, as soon as she gets up, her hand is grabbed by Mia. And MIa says, "Did you hear what I had said? Remember to snatch him up. If you fail, then we'll all die together! I will be ashamed to live in this world."

"Let go of me!!!"

Molly struggles hard. And she has been convinced that Mia is crazy and mentally abnormal.

"Promise me. And I'll let go of you."

"Nuts. Let go of me!"

Karin coldly stands aside, watching the two of them being entangled together. And she isn’t moved in the slightest. From now on, she is no longer the silly woman who would only cry when she was set up by others in the past. And she will take the initiative to defend her lover.

Molly doesn’t expect that Molly, who is thin and skinny, will have so much strength. No matter how hard she struggles, she can’t pull her hand out of Mia’s gripping. In an instant, she, who is annoyed, leans forward and knocks Mia, knocking her and her wheelchair to the ground. Then she pulls her hand back. However, Molly’s long and sharp nails, which haven’t been manicured over the years, scratch her hands, leaving a long bloodstain.

Mia’s maid screams and rushes to pick up Mia on the ground. But Molly draws back her hand and runs out. She simply doesn’t to stay in this frightening place for a more minute.

Karin helps Mia’s maid pick up the girl on the ground and then coldly says, "I won't let her become the second Mia." Then she leaves without looking back.

Outside the door of the house, Molly doesn’t leave. Instead, she sits in the car, waiting for Karin to come out.

Karin isn’t surprised that Molly doesn’t leave. She knows exactly why she is still here. So she pulls open the car door and sits inside. Seeing her holding a tissue and wiping the back of her hand which Mia scratched, she casually says, "Is everything okay?"

Molly questions huffily, "Why did you bring me here?"

"Before I reveal the answer to you, don't you ever wonder who that woman is first?"

"As for who she is, does it have something to do with me?"

"Yes, it has nothing to do with you. But I'm doing it for your good. I'm afraid that you'll go down the same path as she did."

Molly is stunned, "What do you mean?"

"Do you know why she has become what she is now? Previously, she looked more beautiful than you. She is a nobler lady from a rich family. And she was Troy's fiancée. But then because of various reasons, Troy broke off the marriage with her. Since then, she had been psychology disrupted, creating one trap after another, which all failed. In the end, she lost her legs. See her in the way, don’t you think it is more painful for her to live than to die? Do you know why she, who is in so much pain, is still alive? Because she wants to see me have an unhappy life. Because only if I am unhappy will she feel happy."

Molly, who is shocked, opens her eyes wide. She never expects that such a tragedy will have happened five years ago.

"I have known Troy for seven or eight years, no, I should have truly known him for ten years. I have saved his life. So if you say you like him, I can understand. Because he also likes me because of this. But I can only understand you. Never will I give him to you. No matter how you try to persuade me in different ways, it is impossible. You don’t have to try to use any method to make us break up. The reason why I brought you here to see Mia is that I want to let you know that a woman who used all the methods to separate us five years ago failed. And five years later, are you confident that you can succeed where she failed? If you appreciate that Troy saved your life, put away the thoughts you shouldn't have in your mind. And as long as you stop walking along the lost path, I can pretend I didn't hear what you had said to me today."

After Karin finishes her words, she pushes open the car door and gets out of the car. At this moment, Molly surely needs enough time and space to organize her thoughts and to think about whether she needs to do some unnecessary struggle and take some useless paths.

"Oh yes, don't call him Troie again. You can’t call him like this."

Bending down to the car window to emphasize the last sentence, Karin turns to leave. Molly stares at her fading figure from the rearview mirror. And for the first time, a frustrated expression appears on her face, which is always confident...

By the time Karin goes back to Ziteng Garden, it has been in the evening. Yuma has prepared the dinner, asking if she wants to eat dinner first. Karin refuses, saying that she will wait for Troy to come back and have dinner together.

It isn’t until eight p.m. that Troy goes home. And Karin has been waiting for him. On the table of the dining room, there sways a red candle with orange fire dangling on it.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, she hurriedly turns around. And then, a soft smile blooms on her face.

"Are you back?"

"Yeah."

Glancing at the untouched meal on the table, Troy asks in surprise, "Haven't you eaten dinner yet?"

"I am waiting for you to eat dinner together."

He reprimands her angrily, "You don’t have to wait for me in the future. When it's time, eat by yourself first."

"Okay."

Although she promises verbally, she doesn’t think so in her heart.

After eating dinner, Karin proposes to sit on the rooftop for a while. Then the two of them hold each other’s hands and goes to the rooftop. The lounger is still there. And they gaze at the familiar night sky, breathes the familiar air as they hold the familiar lover in each other’s arms. No matter how much unpleasantness they experienced during the day, at this moment, it all dissipates.

She suddenly says without any signs, "Let's get married."

Troy is stunned, "Now?"

"Yes."

"It seems it is a bit inappropriate now. Wait for me..."

"I don't want to wait any longer."

Karin tilts her chin, "I don't need a grand wedding ceremony or a honeymoon. I want nothing. I just need you by my side."

"Why do you suddenly want to get married now?"

"I want to stay by your side in a little more legitimate excuse."

Troy ponders on it for a moment and nods, "Okay, I agree."

She reaches out and wraps her arms around his neck, smiling in satisfaction, "Then we'll simply do it. Get a marriage license and call a few familiar ones to have a meal together. As for others, let’s not bother with them."

"Won’t you feel aggrieved?"

"Not at all. We are a couple for many years. Why should I be aggravated?"

"Okay, all is up to you."

"Then which day do you think is better?"

Troy thinks about it, "Next Monday, okay?"

"Okay, you don't have to care about the details of the wedding ceremony. I'll do it all. You just need to attend."

She is distressed by the fact that he is now tied up. If Molly didn’t say those words today, she wouldn’t propose so at this juncture, Troy is caught up by so much trouble now. And he can no longer afford to let the tragedy of Mia happen. So she has to get rid of those unnecessary troubles for him, vowing to defend her marriage and her family.
