Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 236

Troy freezes for a whole minute, and when he comes to his senses, he quickly squats down, "What did you say?"

"My mother tells me she wants to find me a father, and a brother..."

He takes a deep breath to calm down and holds her hand, "Follow me."

The two enter the elevator and arrive at the sixth floor. Just in time they meet Karin who comes out of the shower to look for her daughter, and as soon as she sees Esme with Troy again, her face sinks at once.

"How many times do you want to make mommy worry about you?"

She angrily yanks Esme from Troy's hand.

"You come with me for a moment."

Troy pulls her by the arm and drags her towards the elevator.

"Let go of me."

She struggles fiercely, "Let go of me."

"I have something to ask you."

"If you want to ask me something, say it now!"

Troy gives a sideways look at Esme, "Are you sure you want to say it in front of Esme?"

Karin is stunned, glaring at him with hatred, then turns to her daughter and says, "You go in to the house first."

Esme nods nervously and trots into the house, and shuts the door of the house as well.

"I heard you're going on a blind date?"

"You are really well-informed."

"Esme tells me. But she is not happy with it at all, why not ask her consent first?"

Karin replies coldly, "It's not your turn to ask about our family's affairs."

"Your affairs are my affairs, you and Esme are my responsibility for the rest of my life!"

"Responsibility?" She looks like she hears the most ridiculous joke in the world, "Don't you think it is too late for you to take your responsibility?"

"Life is still long for us, maybe I am missing your last five years, but I can assure you that I can make up for you for the next fifty years as long as you want."

"What's the best way to deal with it?" She looks straight at him and makes her position clear word by word, "I-don't-want-to."

Karin finishes her words, angrily shaking off his hand, then turns around and enters her house, closing the door heavily.

She really wants to kill him when he talks about responsibility. When she was in her hardest time, when she needed him the most to fulfill his duty, he was not by her side, but now she doesn’t need his help anymore, he even dares to take the initiative to come to fulfill his duty, if she takes him back, then what does those pain she suffered for the five years mean to him? The pain she has suffered, the humiliation she has endured, the hard work she has done for her child and the gossip she has to swallow, all these can not be overlooked just because he wants to take back his responsibility!

Esme curls up in the corner of the sofa, apprehensively staring at her mother sitting beside her, for half an hour, she doesn’t say a word, the expression on her face is very gloomy.

"Mom, if you want to scold me just do it, don't act like this, okay?"

Finally she can not endure her mother’s coldness, Esme crawls over and tugs on her mother's sleeve.

She would rather be beaten by her mother than to be treated with silence.

"Esme, you are now becoming more and more naughty and makes me upset more often, do you know that?"

Karin turns around her head and stares at her daughter with a depressing expression.

"I'm sorry..."

"If you don't want mommy to find a father for you, just tell me, why did you promise mommy in the front, but behind my back run off to tell someone else that you don’t want a new daddy?"

Esme is very guilty, her two small hands helplessly twist together, "I am so wrong. I regretted agreeing with your proposal, but I doesn't dare to take back my promise, so I involuntarily wants to go to find "bad uncle" to talk about it..."

"What's the meaning of you coming to him? Don't you know that mom hates him?"

"I know, but I do not hate him like you..."

Karin is so annoyed but really does not know how to deal with her daughter. She gives a long sign, then falls into a deep silence.

"Mom, if you must find a father for me, do I have my own voice?"

"Do you want to choose William?"

"No..."

She shakes her head, and at that moment Karin knows clearly in her heart that her daughter wants to choose Troy, "the bad uncle". Although her choice is very unacceptable, but Karin still pretends to be calm and asks purposely, "Then who do you want to choose?"

"The bad uncle..."

Her heart rate increases. Esme really wants him to be her new father, gloomily lowers her eyelids, "That is impossible."

"I know that mom hates him, but Uncle Troy said that mom used to like him, if you could like him in the past, why can't you try to like him now?"

Troy Charlie... What exactly did you say in front of the child? Karin can't wait to take Esme away now, to somewhere that nobody knows them, as long as he can't find them.
