"No."
"Then it doesn't matter, if they never look for your trouble, you don't need to feel sorry for anyone."
Karin stares at him meaningfully, trying to see if there is any panic on his face, "By the way, how come I've never seen your parents?"
"You want to meet my parents?"
William is surprised, but he doesn't panic at all, and even jokingly says, "You do not intend to be with me, why do you want to see my parents?"
"No, I am just curious."
"Oh... it's been five years and only now are you starting to be curious about me? I can tell you usually never pay much attention to me."
He sighs sourly, "My parents had immigrated to Canada four years ago."
Immigrate to Canada?
Karin doesn’t expect him to answer her in this way and is tempted to be skeptical, but seeing the naturalness of his answer, it doesn’t look like he is making it up, so she nods, "Okay, no wonder I never see them before."
She leaves the manager's office listlessly, and she actually wants to ask him what relationship he has with Emmanuel Charlie, but she beats her curiosity, thinking that she doesn’t talk too much with him, and suddenly she becomes so curious about him, he may be suspicious and may find out that she had been to his office this afternoon and had look through his files that she shouldn’t know.
She leaves the office with a lot of confusions. The distance from the office to her home is not far. She keeps her head low and falls into a deep thought that she even doesn’t notice she runs into a wall of flesh at the corner that leads to the elevator, and before she could look up, she hears a low sexy voice that sounds so similar in her dream, "Do you pick up the money on the ground?"
She is frozen, and only after a while does she slowly look up, staring at the man in front of her in shock, "Why are you here again?"
"Aren't you welcome me?"
Troy smiles cynically and raises his wrist to look at the time, "I've been waiting for you for half a day."
"What do you want again?"
"This time, I come back, not for business, but for you."
Karin has calmed down from her shock and sneers, "Me and Esme are not a sticky note, when you need us we are there and when you don’t need us, you just toss us away!"
"What you're saying? I would rather throw myself away than leave you guys behind."
Troy sighs, "Last time I got an emergency in the company, otherwise I would not have left in such a hurry, I asked Robert to call you, the guy has been tortured by Billie’s miscarriage in recent years, his brain is not as good as before, so he forgot to call you... "
"Why should he call me? You don't have a phone yourself?"
"I'm going to say I am afraid if I hear your voice I can't leave, do you believe it?"
"Do you think I'll believe it?"
"I think... you'll believe it."
"Sorry, I don't believe it at all!"
Karin glares at him and walks straight to the elevator, and as soon as she steps into the elevator, Troy follows her in.
"What are you doing?"
He raises his eyebrows, "I'm going home, you must have forgotten that I also live in this building."
Karin is speechless, her body turns aside, and she no longer talks to him.
The elevator stops at the sixth floor, she doesn't look back and walk out of the elevator, but Troy follows her again.
This is her turn to raise her eyebrows, "Doesn't you forget that you live on the ninth floor?!"
"No, I doesn’t."
"Then why are you following me?"
"I'm looking for Esme."
When he mentions Esme, she gets angry, "Troy, I warn you, do not appear in front of Esme again, since you can not give the child any hope, do not always let her down!"
He gives a long sign, "But what can I do? I've already met Esme... "
"What?" Karin is stunned, "You two have been met before?"
"Uncle Troy... "
Hearing Esme’s calling, the door of her house opens and Esme runs out excitedly and jumps into Troy's arms.
"Tell your mother when we met."
Troy hugs Esme, his eyes are full of pride.
"It was Uncle Troy who picked me up from kindergarten. I know it, Uncle Troy will not break his promise to me!"
"Didn't nanny go to pick you up?" She questions with a cold face.
"Yes, we come back together."
Karin steps forward and takes Esme from Troy's arms, then enters the house, and closing the door heavily.
"Mom, Uncle Troy he... "
