Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 235

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."
