Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 217

After she finishes speaking, she meekly waits for him to express his attitude, but Troy says nothing and continues to drink.

"Stop it. Do you think your heart won't hurt anymore if you are drunk? Using the alcohol to numb yourself can't help with anything. You should get her back; don’t you think so?"

Troy still doesn’t speak, but he drinks more and more in a faster way.

"Enough, are you going to endure it forever?"

Robert snatches his wine glass.

"Don't worry about me, go out to greet the guests."

Seeing that he doesn’t intend to waver at all, the new couple sighs helplessly and leaves the box.

Troy continues to drink by himself. He can’t understand why the woman chose to abandon him. He keeps thinking about it every day, and he gets too tired, but he still can’t think of an answer. This makes him very upset. What makes it even harder for him to bear is that he hasn’t spent a day without missing her so bad for the past year...

Although wine can no longer numb his broken heart, it can still confuse his consciousness, making him not think about her so frequently, and allowing him to breathe even for a while.

The people who come to the wedding leave one by one. In the end, only Troy is there. He pats Robert on the shoulder, says nothing, turns and leaves.

"Can he drive like that?" Billie asks her husband beside her worriedly.

"I'll drive him home."

Robert runs out and gets into the driving position first.

Troy frowns in confusion: "What are you doing?"

"I worry about you, so I will send you back."

"I’m okay. It’s your wedding day today. The wedding night is invaluable, so you don't have to do your job today."

"You're drunk."

“Huh”, he laughs at himself. Actually, he hopes he is drunk, but unfortunately his mind is clearer than ever.

Sitting in the car, Robert starts the engine. Troy no longer lives in Ziteng Garden. About that place, it makes him feel breathless even by just looking at it. If he stays there, he will be suffocated sooner or later.

"Should I send someone to London to find out about Miss Karin?"

Troy shakes his head, "No need."

His gaze moves out of the window, and the expression on his face is cold and forbearing. After being silent for a moment, as if he is talking to himself, he says, "Her baby should be born..."

Robert is overjoyed, thinking that he finally shakes his determination not to find her back, "Shall we send someone to investigate and we will find out?"

"No need, why should we force her to come back since she has already left, don't mention it again in the future."

The hope that rises difficultly is shattered again. Robert glances deeply at him from the mirror, and shakes his head helplessly.

When the car is about to reach Charlie Mansion, a woman's voice calling for help comes from an alley. Robert immediately turns off the engine, and when he is about to push the door open and get out of the car, he hears him say, "Leave it alone."

The leg he has just stepped out is taken back abruptly, and he turns his head in surprise, "It seems that someone is calling for help."

"There are too many people in this world who need to be saved, can you save them all?"

Troy says these ruthless words coldly. How could he be so cold-blooded if it hadn't been because his heart is hurt.

Just because that woman is always so sympathetic, he and she have come to this point, so after she leaves, he is getting more cold-blooded.

"Should we leave it alone, for real?"

"Should I say it again?"

Robert swallows his saliva, closes the door sullenly, and restarts the car.

Troy casts his gaze to the alley indifferently, and can still hear the woman shouting and struggling, but he is unmoved.

Closing his eyes, he shuts himself into another world, in that world, there is no emotion, no love, only darkness.

"Pull it over."

Suddenly thinking of something, he opens his eyes blankly.

"Why?"

Troy doesn’t speak, but pushes the car door open and walks straight to the alley. Before Robert can react, he hears a cry of pain coming from the alley.

He understands immediately, rushes over and joins the fight.

Both of them are masters of Aikido, and in a short time, the gang either flee or are knocked out.

In the darkness, a woman curls up in the corner and weeps. Although her appearance is not seen clearly, one can tell her body is trembling violently.

"Miss, are you okay?"
