Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 255

"It's me, you're not blind, I'm Karin."

Karin reaches out to hug Yuma and bursts out crying. Everyone tends to be sentimental. Upon seeing familiar people and familiar things, Karin feels particularly upset in her heart, feeling that those years seem to have slipped away unknowingly and quietly.

"From the day you left, I thought you surely would come back. And it turns out that you indeed came back. I can see you again before closing my eyes. I have no regrets in this life."

"What are you talking about?"

She raises her head and carefully eyes the woman in front of her, only to find that Yuma is indeed aged. Half of her hair is gray. And there are many wrinkles on her face. Seeing her this way, Karin feels even more upset. She seems to see how the relentless time has engraved its exclusive marks on Yuma’s face one after another.

"By the way, did Mr. Troy know that you came back? He will be very happy if he knows. Over these five years, he has looked forward to your return all the time..."

"We've met and made up."

"Really?"

Yuma reveals a pleased smile as she can’t be more excited, "Great, God bless. At that time, I thought, if God did separate you and Mr. Troy, I would doubt whether God had gone blind or not. I have lived most of my life. And I have never seen people who love each other more than you do."

"It's true. We met in Edinburgh and later went to my home together. And my parents acknowledged our love."

Yuma asks carefully, "What about the child you… were carrying that year?"

After all, back then, because of that child, Karin and Troy broke up with each other.

"I gave birth to it early. It is a girl. And she is as cunning as her father."

The two of them laugh in unison. Seeing that it is already dark, Yuma hurriedly pulls her back into the living room, "Did you just come back today? Rest quickly. I'll cook something delicious for you."

"Well, yes. I came straight here after I got off the plane."

"So, you and Mr. Troy haven't met yet, right?"

"Yeah, not yet."

"Well..."

Yuma sighs heavily, "Mr. Troy has recently been haunted by some murder cases. And he is busy all day long. He used to come to the garden a few times a year. But this year so far, he has not come here once."

"Call him to come over for dinner." She pauses, "But don't tell him I'm here."

"Then he probably won't come here, okay?"

"Say so to him..."

Karin whispers a few words to Yuma. And Yuma nods, "Okay, I know."

She walks to the telephone and dials Troy's cell phone. A moment later, the other end is connected. Yuma says, "Is that Mr. Troy?"

"Yes."

"Can you come over and have dinner with me tonight? It is my birthday today. I feel so lonely by myself."

Troy is silent for a moment before replying, "Okay. I'll come over later."

Yuma has taken care of his mother as well as Karin. Because she has taken care of two people he loves. It is not excessive for her to make such a request. Over five years, she has been silently guarding the Ziteng Garden. And never does she have any complaints or dissatisfaction, let alone putting forward any greedy request. And she rarely makes a request tonight. In that case, however busy Troy is, he won’t refuse her.

At 7:30 p.m., he drives to the mountain. And Yuma has been waiting for him at the door as she says gratefully, "Thank you for honoring me, an old woman, Mr. Troy."

"Don't say that. You watched me grow up. Setting aside accompanying you to dinner, it is my duty and obligation to support you in your elder years and see you off after you decease."

"Ouch, your words overwhelms me. I can’t take it." Yuma waves her hands in a hurry, feeling moved and warm-hearted in secret.

"Happy birthday."

He hands a gift to Yuma and says guiltily while walking to the living room, "I'm so ashamed. You watched me grow up. But I don't even know your birth date.”

"In the past, I did not like to celebrate birthdays. Of course, you don’t know about it."
