Chapter Chapter117 I Want You to Marry Me 4

"Mia had a car accident."

"What?"

Stunned for a few seconds, Billie laughs, "Did she have a car accident? That's great! A bad woman like
her deserves to be punished. How did she curse you last time? She said you would go to hell, right?
She is actually cursed herself with her bad heart, she deserves it!"

"Billie."

Karin glares at her sadly, "You don't understand the situation, don't talk nonsense."

"What? What’s the matter with you? It's your rival in love not your relative who has the car accident.
You shouldn't be so distraught. You are reacting like a stupid, do you understand?"

"She was in a car accident because of Troy. She lost both legs! The question that exists in front of Troy
and me is that she must have someone responsible for her. Do you understand?"

Billie becomes surprised with her mouth wide open, and she suddenly can't speak.

After a while, she asks in frustration, "Then what are you going to do now?"

"I don’t know."

Karin rubs her hair in annoyance. Those words that Milan said have kept echoing in her ears, and she
can't drive them away. She is really annoyed.

"What did Troy say?"

"He said he would not give me up."



"That's fine. Since he has promised you, what else do you have to worry about?"

"You don't understand. Things are not as simple as you think."

"How complicated is that?"

"Mia had such an accident Do you think Mia’s family will let it go easily?"

"Hey, her family just has a small business and doesn’t border on the noble. Will Troy be afraid of
them?"

"Even if her family will not make trouble, the Charles family will be targeting us, not to mention that it
would be difficult to deal with Troy's sister Milan alone."

Billie rolls her eyes, "Why is Miss Milan so annoying? Does she have hatred against you? Why does
she keep picking on you?"

"I don't know."

"Well, don't be unhappy. I will call William. Let's go for a drink and forget all the unpleasant things."

After speaking, she takes the phone and dials William's number, but she frowns, "Damn, he turns it off.
Forget it, let's go by ourselves."

"No, I want to go back."

Karin doesn't have the mood to go out to play. She wants to go back to Ziteng Garden quickly and ask
Troy about Mia's situation.

She hurried back without a stop, but Troy does not come back. She has to sit in the garden and wait for
him.



Afraid that he is in a bad mood, she doesn’t dare to call him.

After waiting for more than two hours, she runs out quickly when she hears the sound of a car outside.

As soon as Troy gets out of the car, she rushes forward and asks, "Was Mia awake?"

"Yes."

"How was she? Was she still blubbering?"

He shakes his head, "No, she was quite calm."

"Has she stopped making trouble?"

Karin is a little surprised, "How can she stop making trouble?"

"Maybe she has accepted the reality, or maybe she needs some time to accept it."

Troy takes her hand and they walk into the garden together. When they go upstairs, he stares at dark
circles around her eyes and says, "Don't think about anything tonight. Just sleep well."

Feeling quite disturbed, she asks, "Then what did you tell her?"

"I said I would take care of her like my own sister."

"Did she agree with you?"

"She didn't speak."

Karin is frustrated, "Then she must be unwilling."

"Whether she wants it or not, I can only give her such a promise. As I have said, I will make a clear
distinction between responsibility and love."



Troy holds up her face with his hands, "Well, don't worry about it anymore. I don't want to see you
unhappy."

He goes to work in the study, and she goes to the bathroom to take a shower. After taking a shower,
she lies down on the bed. Maybe she is really too tired. After a while, she falls asleep deeply.

When she wakes up, it is already more than two o'clock in the morning. She finds that the place next to
her is empty, so she gets up abruptly and shouts, "Troy..."

Is he still working? Karin puts on slippers and runs all the way to the study. She opens the door only to
find that there is no one in the study.

She rushes downstairs and searches everywhere, but she can't find him. She can't help being a little
worried. It is so late, where did he go...

She hurried back to the bedroom to call him, but the ringtone comes from the sofa. His phone is in the
pocket of his coat and the coat is thrown on the sofa.

He shouldn't have walked far without his coat. She calms down and thinks about it, and suddenly thinks
of a place, and then she runs to the rooftop.

In the dark night, the moon hangs halfway up the mountain, and everything is in tranquility around. He
just sits alone on the chair they made out with each other in the rain.

Staring at him quietly for a moment, she walks over and leans on his back, and asks softly, "Why are
you sitting here alone?"

Troy's body trembles a little. He puts her hands into his palms, and gently explains, "I can't sleep, so I
am going to see the sunrise."



"It's too early to watch the sunrise now." She sits next to him, leaning her head on his shoulder, "It will
take at least three hours to see the rising sun."

"I am afraid of missing it, so I come early."

"Why do you want to watch it suddenly?"

He stiffens for a while. After pondering for a moment, he replies with a trembling voice, "Because today
is the 10th anniversary of my parents’ death."

Karin is stunned. She doesn't know what to say suddenly.

Sometimes you can’t feel the pain of others, even if the person is your lover.

"I will watch the sunrise with you next year, okay?"

He lowers his eyes, "Okay."

"Then let me accompany you the year after the next, okay?"

"Okay."

"What about three years from now?"

"Okay."

"Can I stay with you for the rest of my life?"

"...Okay."

She cries suddenly, "Troy, are you sad?"



"A little."

"Are you just a little sad? I know, you heart hurts deeply now."

He stretches out his hand to wipe away her tears, "Sweetie, my heart doesn't hurt. There is no
rehearsal in life. Live broadcasts are played every day. Whether it is good or bad, we must face it with a
strong heart. If we are not strong, then we can only face life cowardly."

Karin blinks blankly with tears, and nods vigorously.

"Do you want to be a strong person?" he asks.

"Yes."

"Okay, then you have to remember..." He pauses and straightens her shoulders, "If you want to be a
strong person, you can't let others know how painful you are. It would be better if you can cheat
yourself."

Karin is stunned for a long time, but she doesn't quite understand what he means. Until many years
later when she experiences the pains of growth and the changes of love, she has suddenly realized
how far she has to disguise to cheat others and herself.

"Well, let's stop talking about these unhappy things."

Troy pats his leg, "Come on, I will hold you to sleep for a while."

"No, I want to watch the sunrise with you."

"I will wake you up at sunrise."

She thinks for a while, "Okay."



Sitting down, she grabs one of his hands and strokes it carefully. He lowers his head, "Why don't you
sleep?"

"You have to give me time to sleep. I can’t fall asleep immediately."

He puts on a light smile, "If you can't sleep, you should count the stars. Don't keep drawing circles in
my palm."

"But I like to do that. Have you heard of a legend?"

"What legend?"

"It is said that as long as a woman draws nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine circles in the
palm of a man she likes, the man will never get away for the rest of her life, he will belong to the
woman who draws the circle forever."

He smiles, "So you will trap me this way, right?"

"Exactly."

"Then how many circles have you drawn?"

"I have only drawn a few hundred circles." She pouts, "You are so busy every day, and I have limited
time to see you. Even if I see you, I rarely have free time to draw circles. So, it’s still a bit far from the
goal."

He pats her shoulder, "It's okay. You have enough time to draw in the rest of your life."

Encouraged by his words, Karin continues to draw. After more than an hour, she suddenly raises her
head and says, "Troy, when will you fulfill your promise to travel with me?"

"Any time, or tomorrow."



She thinks for a while and shakes her head, "Let's wait until Mia's condition gets better. I guess you are
worried about her now. If you are not in the mood, I will not be in any mood to travel."
