Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 181

He still doesn't say anything. Sighing, she no longer asks the reason. She just takes one of his hands and puts it directly on her chest. She says firmly, "Take it."

Troy's hand rests on her chest, feeling her heartbeat. The corners of his lips gradually appear a relieved smile.

"I give you my sincere heart. If you don't need it in the future, don't give it back to me."

"I can never live without your love. I just want more."

Troy gently hugs her, kisses her hair and says, "Karin, you know what? In the entire Charles family, no one make me feel the love. My sisters, Milan, Lily and Arya. None of them are happy. Even the parents I always thought they loved each other very much still betrayed their marriage. Only you can give me the hope. No matter when, I thank God for sending you to my side. If you don’t come to me, I won’t know what my life would be like. Maybe I have lived for responsibilities and promises all my life. Therefore, promise me never leave me, never betray me and always love me."

Karin is shocked. She has never known that Troy is so longing for love and afraid of being hurt. Her two hands slowly go up to embrace the man next to her.

"Troy, I promise you that I will not leave you all my life, let alone not love you."

Love without memories and without true heart is illusory, which is that her Grandma has told her. So at this moment, she can understand Troy's longing for sincere feelings better than anyone else.

So does she. She does not want the illusory love. She wants the true love.

The New Year's bell is about to ring. Karin has specially prepared a gift for Troy. On New Year's Eve, there are only two of them in Ziteng Garden. Although there are just them, the atmosphere is quite good.

Yuma went home for celebrating New Year two days ago. In the past few days, it’s Karin who has prepared meals by herself.

In the romantic and cozy dining room, she has made a lot of dishes. Troy walks in with two bottles of red wine and praises her, "Not bad. That’s like the New Year."

Karin takes off her apron and sits down at the dining table. She is resting her cheeks in her hands and asks, "How did you celebrate the New Year before?"

"Just like that."

"What?"

"Eat and then sleep."

"Who did you eat with?"

"Sometimes, I eat alone. Sometimes, I will eat with my three sisters."

Karin nods, as if she has got it. Troy chuckles, "Do you still want to ask me who I sleep with?"

"Humph, who would ask such a boring question?"

Karin glares at him angrily.

"By the way, I have prepared a gift for you."

Troy raises his eyebrows, "Really? I have also prepared a gift for you."

"What is it?"

Karin asks curiously. When he came back in the afternoon, he carried a beautiful paper bag. She has known it’s a gift to give to her at a glance, but she doesn't know what it is.

"Guess it."

"How can I guess out? Can you guess out what I want to give you?"

Troy shakes his head, "No."

"That's it. Why don't we give each other gifts when the New Year's bell rings?"

"Okay."

Karin takes her gift and puts it in front of her. Troy also puts the gift which is ready to give to her by the table. Looking at each other, the two are sitting at the table and drinking the red wine.

"Remove the outer wrapping paper."

"What?"

"The gift. You can see it right away when the bell rings."

Troy smiles, "You can't wait?"

"Of course. When I think about it’s my New Year’s gift, I’m so excited."

"Well."

He rips off the wrapping paper of the gift in front of him. Then he gets up and says, "I have to go to the bathroom."

"Go ahead."

Karin waves her hands and stares eagerly at the gray wooden box opposite.

"Don't take a peek."

"I won’t. But anyway, it's mine in the end."
