Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 36

Karin runs back to school in a hurry, quickly changes the cheongsam, and determines not to wear it again.

She washes her head, stands by the balcony, and looks at the dark night outside in confusion, holding a dry towel in her hand, but she doesn't know what to do, and lets the water drops on her back.

The mobile phone on the bed has rung for many times, disturbing her thinking. Turning around and slowly turns her eyes to the caller ID.

The word Charlie is strange, just like his position, out of her reach...

"Hey."

After a short hesitation, she presses to answer.

"Why did you leave without telling me?"

He is obviously questioning her, but the words coming from his mouth, are so gentle.

"Sorry, I have something else to do."

"Can you come out now?"

“What? Where?"

"I'm at your school gate."

Karin bites her lips and ponders for a few seconds, "Well."

Hanging up the phone, she breathes a sigh of relief. Just take this opportunity to make it clear what should be said.

Charlie leans against the car, holding a cigarette in his hand, and the little sparks of light fly up and down like a naughty firefly in the dark night.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

"It's ok."

He wipes out his cigarette and pulls the door, "Get in the car."

"No, I don't want to go too far. There is a river ahead. Let's talk over there."

Charlie has no objection.

The two walk together side by side. Karin is very confused, not knowing how to raise up the topic.

"You haven't told me yet. Why do you leave suddenly?"

"I have said so, something happened suddenly..."

"Impossible," he says firmly to her, "If anything happens, you won't even tell me."

"I don't know much about etiquette, and every time I am in a hurry, I am a bit stupid. And I have poor self-control ability."

Charlie is interested in her words, "Oh, for example?"

"Like what?"

"Which aspect can reflect your poor self-control."

She blushes, "No, I won’t tell you. I don't want to expose all my shortcomings in front of a good man."

"Do you think I'm a good man?"

"Aren’t you? You are the ruler of the Charlie’s family. You are famous, and there is nothing in the world that is not under your control."

He smiles, "You beautify me like God."

The two sit on a lounge chair by the river and stare at the sparkling river. Charlie says unfathomably, "In fact, I am more eager to be an ordinary man than being admired by thousands of people."

"Why?"

"There is no reason, not everything has a reason."

"You really don’t know how happy you are. You don’t know the worries of ordinary men. They live and work hard all day for their livelihood. If they like you, rich and having a beautiful girl, they may dream with a smile."

Karin says without noticing Charlie is surprised by her words.

"Do you know I have a girlfriend?"

She is stunned and nods, "Well, I do. It's the one who danced with you tonight."

Charlie does not deny, but says in a very bland tone, "She is my fiancee."

"Oh..."

Karin tries her best to keep calm.
