Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 270

As Karin, who is already like a walking corpse, suddenly hears the shout, she is revived. She stumbles downstairs and sees Robert standing in the middle of the living room. Then she pounces on him and asks, "Where is Troy?"

Robert's face is sullen and painful. It seems that after just one night, he has aged a lot. His navy blue beard is faintly visible. As he clenches his hands into fists, anger shows up in his eyes.

Karin shouts, "I ask you where Troy is!"

"Young Master Troy is missing..."

“Did Troy disappear?” Her legs go limp. if Yuma hadn’t held her discerningly, she would have fallen to the ground.

She asks, trembling, "Do you say he's missing?"

"Yes, we..."

She roars hysterically, "You were with him. You came back. How could he have disappeared?"

"Madam, calm down. Hear Mr. Robert out first."

"How can I calm down? He said Troy is missing. Yuma, did you hear that? He said Troy is missing. Did you hear that..."

Karin is in tears. Yuma hugs her heartbreakingly, "Yes, I did. But it's okay. The young master will be lucky. And he will be fine."

"Tell me the details." She cries.

Robert's voice is hoarse as he begins to tell Karin what happened, "The cruise ship I was on with Young Master Troy broke down on the way and didn’t reach the shore in time. There were six killers, no, it should be seven. I don't know if they were lurking on the ship or boarded the yacht midway. One of them disguised himself as a waiter to confirm my room with Young Master Troy. Young Master Troy found that he had a murder weapon. So he shot him and killed him, alerting the accomplice outside. I, who was suffering from knife wounds, couldn’t move. Fearing that he would implicate me, Young Master Troy went out of the room alone. At first, I could hear some gunfire and the sounds of fighting. Later, because of excessive blood loss from the wound fainted, I didn't know anything..."

Karin's body trembles greatly. And she asks dumbly, "You don’t know anything. How do you know that Troy is missing?"

"Young Master Troy called for rescue. But they came late. Before they came, Young Master Troy had been in trouble. According to an eyewitness on board afterward, Young Master Troy jumped into the sea. And the killers shot towards the sea. But I don’t know whether he was wounded. I have arranged for people to dive into the bottom of the sea to look for him. And from this morning until now, they haven’t found anybody. So Young Master Troy surely is still alive. It is just that I do not know where he is..."

Hearing that Troy jumped into the sea at that moment, Karin feels that her brain instantly goes blank. When she hears that the killers were shooting at the sea, her eyes go black. And then she completely loses consciousness.

She has a dream, a long dream. In the dream, she and Troy live in an isolated place full of purple dandelions and two houses with green brick and green tile in them. The house is surrounded by a wooden fence. She is sitting in the courtyard and writing some calligraphy as she is surrounded by a group of children. Troy is lying in the sun leisurely, reading a book. Instead of reading financial magazines, he reads some folk stories. This scene has been hovering in her mind for a long time. So she has had such a dream for such a long time that she knows it is a dream and yet doesn’t want to wake up. Because waking up means that she has to face the cold world. Only the scene in her dream is the warmth of her life pursuit...

"Madam, Madam… Wake up. Wake up..."

Yuma calls her anxiously after another. Finally, she wakes up reluctantly and opens her eyes. For a moment, she only feels that the sunlight outside is dazzling. Robert guiltily confesses to her, "I'm sorry, it's me who failed to protect Young Master Troy, I'm sorry..."

"Is he just missing?" Karin staggers and jumps off the bed, grabbing Robert's collar, "Or is he dead? Tell me honestly?!"

"Young Master Troy won't die. I can assure you. He definitely won't die!"

"You promised me. With what? With your life?"

Karin angrily pushes him and fails to control her emotion momentarily. Robert bows and covers the waist with his hands with fine beads of sweat overflowing on his head. The expression on his face indicates that he seems to be in pain. Yuma, who is stunned, immediately comes to her senses, "Madam, Mr. Robert is still injured."

Karin glances at the place Robert is covering with his hands where something crimson seems to be seeping out. And it looks exactly like the one seeping out of her heart.
