Chapter 253 I Would Rather Die Beside You 2


    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 andughs, "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 exins, "Oh, you are talking about her. Her name is


    Molly Lee. She came to Zurich five years ago to look for her rtives. And she was almost defiled by a


    gang of gangsters. Fortunately, I saved her andter 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 ording 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’tpletely 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 particrly


    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? Howe 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 withpassion 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?"


    "Then why did you act differently when I saved Jacob?"


    "Can we not mention the past?"


    "I did something you were unhappy with. You''ve been mentioning it all the time. However, after you did


    something I was unhappy with, you insisted that we should stop talking about it. The way you see it, it


    is so unfair. Shouldn’t I mention it?"


    Troy sighs, "I know. You are not calling to be concerned about me tonight. Instead, you are deliberately


    arguing with me, right?"


    She grunts, "Let''s talk about it if I am there."


    "Are you done arguing with me? Can you hang up the call and rest now?"


    "Ok, let’s hang up the call."


    She purses her lips, "By the way, remember to watch out for your second uncle. I always think he is not


    a good person."


    "How does my second uncle offend you?"


    "I submitted my resignation letter to William today. And he said a few words, making me feel that he


    and Emmanuel''s rtionship is extraordinary. In any case, keep a watchful eye on him."


    "well, good."


    "That''s it then, good night."


    As she is about to hang up the phone, Troy suddenly says, "Karin, in this world, I only trust you."


    Her heart gently trembles. And she softly says, "Me too. I only believe in you in this world too."


    The call tonight is the longest call they had ever made. And after hanging up the phone, Karin can’t fall


    asleep anymore. And she keeps thinking of the person across the ocean involuntarily, constantly


    praying in secret that they should solve all the trouble as soon as possible so that they don’t have to be


    separated in different ces like this.


    She carefully counts the days. Although she and Troy have known each other for many years, the time


    when they are together is few. And most of the time, they are in separation Their current situation is like


    this. And they live in different cities of different countries.


    Three days have passed. And she is going to officially leave Edinburgh and go for a better future. After


    all, in the lowest mundane time of her life, she spent her time here. As she is about to leave now, she is


    more or less reluctant, feeling that she is attached to this ce.


    The night before the farewell, the colleagues getting along with her in thepany join her for a


    farewell meal. William also shows up. The two of them don’t say a word. After the dinner, he proposes


    to send her back to Star River Community, she wants to refuse. But he says this is hisst request. So


    she has to agree.


    When she gets out of the car at the entrance of the residential quarter, she says goodbye, turns


    around, and leaves. She can''t bear to see the look of despondency in his eyes, which she has seen in


    the car.


    "Karin..."


    William shouts. She pauses and doesn’t turn back. Then William says, "When we meet again, I will not


    have any slightest feelings for you anymore."


    "Very well."


    She waves her hand and walks away without looking back, thinking that if they would meet again, she


    indeed hoped that he would not have feelings for her anymore.


    Sometimes, love is a burden as well.


    The frequency of Troy calling her is getting less and less. Originally, it was one call per day. And now it


    is one call every three days. ording to Troy, if he calls them too frequently, the enemy hiding in the


    shadows will find out their location through satellite signals. And then they are most likely to use them


    as a bargaining chip to threaten him.


    Hearing his exnation, Karin is convinced as well. In the end, he calls her every other week. Karin


    has long returned to London, working in a securitiespany. As for whatever he says, she believes


    him. Because in this world, they can only trust each other.


    If Karin didn’t receive a call from Billie suddenly and unexpectedly, Karin would have been waiting for


    him in the old ce.


    Looking at the unfamiliar number, which is yet from Zurich, she hesitates briefly and presses the


    answer button, "Hello, who is it?"


    "Karin, it''s me..."


    A choked call rings over the call, which is with a little sadness and a little sorrow. Karin is stunned,


    "Billie?"


    "Are you okay?" Billie’s voice sounds very haggard. And Karin has a bad feeling as she says, "You,


    who are pregnant, can''t use the cell phone, right? Howe you''re calling me?"


    "I am okay now."


    "What do you mean?" She holds her breath.


    "The child is lost again. It is the fourth child I have lost..."


    Billie wails on the phone. And her crying upsets Karin in her heart. She wants to say some words of


    comfort to her, only to find that she doesn’t know how she shouldfort her. For a moment, she feels


    that her throat is choked and that she is like a mute.


    "I heard from Robert that you are doing very well now. I am happy for you. Do you remember the


    agreement we made in the university dormitory? If I have a son in the future, I will let him marry your


    daughter. If you have a son, you will let him marry my daughter. Now it seems that this wish is no


    longer feasible."
