Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 253

She pouts, "It seems that I'm not very important to you."

"No. It's because I know that no matter how much I have to do, someone will be always there for me."

Her heart softens as she says, "How is it going on with your Uncle? Did it implicate you?"

"Although the murderer has not been found, it has nothing to do with me. Who am I? I am Troy."

"Troy is also a human being. Troy is not omnipotent."

She knows that even if something has gone wrong, he won’t tell her. Because he loves her. And he will only report the good news rather than the bad ones to her.

"It's okay. Don't worry about it. Did you go to Edinburgh?"

"Yes, how do you know?"

"Esme called me this afternoon."

Karin grunts, "She didn't even call me. But she called you. I've been raising her for five years for nothing."

"Daughters are closer to their fathers. And when we have a son in the future, he will certainly be close to you all day long."

She unconsciously blushes and laughs, "I don’t want to give you a son. I'm not a tool for you to pass on your legacy."

"What are you talking about? Children are the crystallization of a couple. And the more children they have, the more it proves that they love each other."

"Is that so?" Karin says in a skeptical tone, "Your parents delivered many children. But I can’t see how much they love each other..."

Troy interrupts angrily, "Don't hit where I hurt."

"By the way, all the time, I want to ask you about something. I forgot it before. And it suddenly dawns on me now."

"What is it?"

"Last time, I came to Edinburgh with you. Who was the woman who held your arms and called you Troie?"

He is suddenly stunned. and then he hurriedly explains, "Oh, you are talking about her. Her name is Molly Lee. She came to Zurich five years ago to look for her relatives. And she was almost defiled by a gang of gangsters. Fortunately, I saved her and later helped her find her father. She has always regarded me as her brother."

"What kind of brother? A man she loves?"

"Nonsense. I've always treated her like a sister."

"She deliberately called you Troie in front of me. It seems you get along quite well with her. Are you sure she only sees you as a brother? Does she have feelings for you?"

"I'm sure. She is a girl who knows how to act according to the actual situation. Knowing that I have someone I like in my heart, she isn’t going to have unrealistic thoughts on her mind."

Hey… Karin sighs, "You indeed don’t understand women. Sometimes, they don’t reveal what they are thinking about in their hearts. Because she isn’t completely confident, fearing that you can’t even be friends in the end. if there is no love between you, why did she deliberately call you Troie? Tell me honestly, do you often condone her calling you like this?"

"No..."

Troy dares not to tell her the truth, fearing that Karin surely will be unforgiving if she finds out that he had taken another woman like her.

"Then how did she call you Troie?"

"For the word you can figure out, other women surely can figure it out as well. It's not a particularly intimate word. Don't dwell on it, okay?"

"No way. With a woman's natural intuition, I know that she called you so intentionally."

Troy reprimands her in a good-natured manner, "Are you bored without any love rivals? You should be happy that I don't have a woman. Instead, you insist on concluding Molly as my woman."

"I am understanding what the fact is. Well, it is strange. Rather than saving others, on usual days, don’t you dislike others save people? How come you acted differently to Miss Molly? Is it my leaving that awakened you? Or is it that when you encounter someone asking for help, you think to yourself, ‘if that woman had seen someone like this, she would have been overwhelmed with compassion again.’ Is that so? Is that what you thought at that time that you saved her back then?"

"Yes."

"Heh, then I indeed have to thank you for carrying forward the traditional virtues for me."

Troy senses the sour tone of her voice and puffs out a smile, "You are jealous, right?"

"What do you say?"

"I just saved a person. And it's been a few years. It is not a big deal, okay?"
