Capture Your Heart

Chapter 235 Crazy 4

Karin smiles bitterly, "I have lived in despair for five years. You can’t earn my forgiveness just with your sweet words - ‘I would love, honor, and cherish you, until death do us part...’"

She escapes from his embrace and runs towards the door, and when her figure is about to disappear from his sight, she hears a belated confession, "Karin, I'm sorry..."

At that moment, she takes off her persona, and her tears run down from her cheeks, it turns out that all these years, she has been waiting for, only his repentance, a sentence, "I'm sorry."

Hiding in the elevator, Karin cries hysterically. Having been apart from him for several years, she doesn’t shed a single tear, but their encounter at this night brings out all her tears that have been suppressed for five years.

Sitting alone until dawn, Karin has a plan in her heart. She is alone bringing up Esme for the last five years, and she is clear that she is not supposed to go back to live in the past.

In the daytime at the company, Isobel, Karin’s colleague, stares at her watery red eyes, and asks her surprisingly, "What happened?"

She shakes her head, "Nothing." She looks dauntingly depressed.

"It's not that Esme is sick again, is it?"

When Isobel says these to her, she feels even more heartbroken, remembering the late night of that winter five years ago, when she was about to give birth to a child with no relatives accompanying her, and finally she had to abandon her dignity to call William for help. Thinking of this, she can’t forgive Troy, but she is always grateful to William.

"Isobel, last time you talked about arranging a blind date for me, would it be too late for me to say yes now?"

Isobel is stunned and immediately nods, "No, it's not late at all, it's really good that you've figured it out, I'll set the time for you to meet now."

Karin smiles bitterly, "Okay, please."

Isobel is a warm-hearted woman. The first time she saw Karin, she knew she couldn’t ask her why she is a single mom. She also knew it is not easy to raise a child alone, so she had talked to her for several times that she could introduce a guy to her, Karin never takes it seriously. But after their encounter last night, Karin starts to think about her future seriously for the first time.

A woman who has passed her best time will no longer expect to have an intense relationship, but just want to find a man who can spend their lives peacefully and quietly. This is her simple wish about future.

If Troy does not appear, perhaps she will live alone with Esme, but he appears in her life again, he disturbs her peaceful life that she has worked for five years. Now she starts to think about looking for someone to marry, but the guy absolutely can not be Troy or William.

These two men are good, but they are not the right people for her.

The guy Isobel introduces to her is a university professor whose wife died in a car accident during a trip, leaving a seven-year-old son to him. He absolutely is the most suitable man for her, and she is no longer a young woman, and naturally does not want to find any young man.

The time and place of the blind date are set, Sunday afternoon at 1:00 in the Mingtien cafe.

In the evening, after Karin helps her daughter take a bath, they nestle together on the sofa watching TV, she ponders for a while and asks her daughter euphemistically, "Esme, do you want to have one more person in our family, oh no, two more person?"

"Are grandparents coming?" Esme asks casually while nibbling on an apple.

"No, it's a man."

“A man?" Her eyes turns bigger, "Could it be Uncle William or that “bad uncle”?"

"No."

"Then who is it?"

Karin clears her throat and says, "It's your future father..."

Suddenly, Esme freezes, the apple is stuck in her mouth. Seeing her reaction, Karin says to her daughter immediately, "In fact, it is also good to have a father, right? By then, the children in the kindergarten will no longer make fun of you that you do not have a father."

"But how many fathers are you going to find for me? Two?"

Esme lowers her head, showing a very unhappy look.

"No no, you misunderstand me, the other one is a child, that is your future brother, who can play with you in the future."

Seeing that her daughter doesn’t speak any words, she carefully asks, "Are you okay with it?"

In fact, as long as her daughter says no, she will give up this idea, but Esme is the kind of child who is very mature, she knows she will grow up one day and will leave her mother, thinking that in the future after she leaves her mother, her mother is likely to be alone, so she nods her head sincerely, "Yes, I would like to have a daddy and a brother in our family."

Karin gives a sigh of relief and kisses her daughter's forehead and says, "Thank you."

What she says is thank you, but in her heart she wants to say sorry. In order to avoid any further encounter with Troy, this is the best solution for her now.

As long as she is married, he will no longer have the opportunity and reason to approach her and her child, then their lives will be peaceful and everything will be fine.

"Mom is going to take a bath."

"Okay."

When Karin walks away, Esme falls into depression immediately. She thinks about it over and over again, the more she thinks, the more she feels distressed. It is very upset to take a stranger as your father!

She regrets the promise she made to her Mom, but she can not take back her words anyway.

She had no choice but to find the “bad uncle” who lives on the same building. While her mother is taking a bath, she secretly opens the door and goes out to Troy's house on the ninth floor, trying to tell him all her unhappiness.

She knocks the door heavily and after a few moments, the door opens.

Standing inside the house Troy surprisingly stares at the child standing outside the door, incredulously asks, "Esme, what brings you here?"

Esme’s tears come out before uttering any words, bawling and crying, "Uncle Troy, what should I do, my mother is going to find me a father..."
