Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 109

"OK."

"So, when are you coming back?"

"Almost."

Mia screams before Troy finishes his speech, "Hey. It’s Ms. Eira. She is there."

Karin hears what Mia says. Her voice is so loud that even Eira hears something. Eira looks back, only to find Troy and Mia. Her face turns pale and she runs away immediately.

"Are you together with Mia?"

Karin asks in surprise.

"Yes. I have something important things to do. I will contact you later."

Troy hangs up the phone and goes after Eira at once.

But they lose track of Eira in the end even though they are quick enough.

Troy curses seeing the alleys before him. Mia also felts angry. But she is angry with Karin.

"It is her phone call that puts all our two-hour efforts in vain. Her phone call really comes at a bad timing."

Mia stops complaining when seeing Troy’ sullen look.

"Go. We will come tomorrow."

Troy goes directly to his car. Mia follows him. She feels a little bit grateful for Karin because at least Karin gives her a chance to be with Troy.

Karin’s words crosses Troy’s mind when he passes a shop in his way to the mountain top.

He pulls up and goes in. But he forgets to ask what her favorite brand is, so he chooses to pick one of each.

Tonight is nothing special, just like every night before when she is waiting for him. Karin sits quietly on the swing, her legs dangling.

But she feels lost somehow.

"Karin."

Troy comes close to her, kissing her on her forehead.

"Now you are back."

"Yes, I am back. Have you been waiting long?"

"It’s fine." Karin jumps out of the swing, asking, "Where is my bread?"

"I don’t know which one you like, so I bought a lot."

He gives her a big bag of bread, which contains buttered bread, sandwich bread, fermented bread and so on.

"Oh my god."

Karin feels speechless. She says, "Not this kind of bread."

"Which kind of bread?"

Troy still feels a little bit puzzled. After all, he is a man. He does not know what girls mean by saying "little bread".

"I mean the thing that girls use during period."

"Sanitary pad?"

"That’s the thing."

"…"

She asked him, a CEO, to buy sanitary pad for her?

"Then, why don’t you just tell me?"

"I thought you knew."

"How would I know? I never buy this sort of thing before."

Troy takes out his phone and says, "Don’t worry. I will call someone to buy it for you."

"No need."

She pouts and glares at him.

"Why are you with Mia?"

"Go upstairs. I will tell you."

Troy tells Karin all the details about the clues Mia provided, about how he and Mia spot the whereabouts of Eira and how they let her run away before their eyes.

"So, tomorrow you are going with her again?"

"Yes."

Karin feels unhappy when she thinks about the nasty words Mia said several days before in the banquet Emmanuel held. But she says nothing.

But Troy can still tell she is unhappy. He puts his arms around Karin’s shoulder, comforting, "Don’t worry. As long as I find out the truth, I will cut off contact with her."

The beautiful moonlight casts on the bed through gauzy curtain which is blown by the wind. Looking at Troy’s sleeping face, Karin feels everything is just so unreal.

But the arms around her is so real, the embrace around her so warm, the heartbeat in her ears so peaceful and strong. All these things are declaring that they are together.

But why she still feels worried?

The next morning, Troy and Mia go to Ehle Cloth Mill but they don’t find Eira. Eira doesn’t come to work.

For three days, they keep waiting, but find nothing.

They ask the man in charge for the absenteeism list and they get to know Eira’s another name, Kyle Byrne.

Therefore, they start a new round of searching.

Troy devotes himself to find Eira every day. Karin could bear his behavior at first, but one day she fails to.
