Chapter 123 A Secret 2
Chapter 123 A Secret 2
Paul is Mia’s uncle, so he knows the grudge of the two families. He is clear that his niece becomes a cripple because Troy needs to find Eira.
"If it's not as a last resort, I will not bring out the CD. I am ready to take the disc into my coffin when I am death. And it will be a secret forever. Last night, I dreamed about my sister. She scolded me I didn't take good care of her daughter, so today I have to do it. Think about it before you answer me."
When Troy comes out of Paul's study, his face looks like an ice cube in a cold day.
He drives to the company and walks into the office in a hurry. He makes a call to ask Robert come in.
"Have you found Eira?"
Robert freezes, lowers head and keeps silent.
"I'm asking you a question, do you hear me?"
"In fact, there was news yesterday."
"Why didn’t you tell me yesterday? Where is she?"
Troy is suppressing his anger, and asks in harsh voice.
"She is... dead."
The atmosphere suddenly falls to the freezing point. With a snap, Troy fell all the items on table to the ground.
"What did you say? She's dead? How could she be dead!!"
"When my men found her, she was lying in a dilapidated building in the suburbs. Then I went to see her son, who cried and told me that his mother had called him the day before and said strange things..."
“What words?”
"He said that she will be found sooner or later. She is afraid of compromising her son, so she has to sacrifice herself."
Troy is unbearable. He feels pain in heart since Paul told him that thing. At the moment, another clue is completely broken. He is angry and can no longer suppress the pain in the heart, smashing the items in the office into pieces.
Robert has followed him for more than ten years. It is his first time to see him get out of control. He rushes forward to embrace him, “Mr. Troy, calm down. We can find another clue, calm down please!"
"Why didn't you tell me she is dead at the first time?!"
"Because you are annoyed about Mia..."
Originally he wants to tell him when things get better. He does not expect he asks today.
Troy finally calms down and is silent for a moment. Then he tells Robert that Paul has found him. He adds, “Do tell others.”
"Mr. Troy, what do you plan to do?"
"Do as he wants."
"What? No, you can’t. What should Miss Karin do?"
"I have my own plan."
Troy returns to Ziteng Garden in the evening. Karin sees the gauze wrapped in his hand and asks in surprise, “Troy, what's wrong with you?"
He smiled, “I am fine." Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
"Ok? What's the matter?"
"Your hand is injured, so I want to be the same with you."
"Don't make fun of me. I'm so sad, but you're still teasing me."
"Ok, I am sorry. I accidentally touched a sharp object in the office."
“Is it serious?”
Karin holds his hand and checks it carefully. Seeing her worried expression, Troy feels painful in heart. He hugs her and whispers in her ear, “I love you, so I don’t want to hurt you. Karin, remember, no matter what will happen in the future, I love you.”
His words make Karin uneasy, “Troy, what is going on? What happened?"
"Nothing."
“Then why do you say such strange words?”
"I just wanted to tell you, I love you, very much."
She breathes a sigh of relief and shows a bright smile, “I love you too, very much."
Mia is about to discharge, Troy picks her up. Since three days ago he gave her the answer, she became happier.
"Where are you going to take me to?” She asks.
"Charlie Mansion, Mary will take care of you."
She has wanted to move to Charlie Mansion, because it is a symbol of a mistress, but now she has changed her mind.
"I don’t want to go to Charlie Mansion."
"Where do you want to go?"
"Ziteng Garden."
"No."
Troy refuses directly. Karin lives in Ziteng Garden. Even if she does not live there, he will not let Mia live in.
"You said you will grant me anything I want."
“But don't go too far!”
"Then I won't leave the hospital, and I'll stay here!"
Mia turns her back in anger and does not give him room to discuss.
"Suit yourself."
Troy turns out of the ward and drives away.
In the afternoon, Karin receives a phone call from Mia. She does not understand why Mia asks her to go to the hospital.
But she agrees, sin she does not want to refuse a patient's request.
Surprisingly, Mia’s attitude changes greatly. She is no longer hysterical, no longer speaks sarcasm, and no longer regards her as an enemy.
"Miss Mia, what do you want from me?"
"Have a seat."
Mia motions her to sit down and says earnestly, "I made a mistake before. I want apologize to you. You know, after I get disabled, I feel painful and lost control on many things.
"I know. I don't mind."
“So you forgive me?”
"I never hated you, so I have no need to forgive you."
Mia gratefully takes her hand, “Thank you, you are a kind girl. You are better than me."
"Don't say that, everyone has their merits. Just be yourself."
"I will discharge today."
Karin is puzzled, “Why are you still here?"
"Troy came to pick me up in the morning, but he left."
“Why?”
"Because I said I wanted to live in Ziteng Garden, but he did not agree, so he left."
Slowly pulling back hand, Karin finally understands why Mia’s attitude suddenly changes so fast. She wants to use her to achieve her goal.
"If you want to live there, I can help you talk to him, I'll just move out."
She does not want to argue with her, a disabled person. As long as she has Troy, she can give up anything.
"No."
Mia shakes her head, “He won't agree, and if you move out, I don't want to move in."
“Why?”
"You may have me misunderstood. I have no intention to take your position, but because I'm too lonely and I want someone to chat with me. Troy wants me to live in Charlie Mansion. Although Mary can talk to me, she is the elderly; there is a gap between us. We don’t have too many topics."
Karin does not believe her words. Although she is disgusted, she says nothing but nods, “Ok, I will talk to him."
"Thank you, then I assume that you agree."
"It is useless even if I agree. The house is not mine, it needs Troy’s agreement."
"Never mind, if you agree, he will!"
Karin does not expect that before she tells Troy about it, Mia has been asked her uncle to drive her up the mountain to officially live in Ziteng Garden without permission.
When she is back from school, she hears arguments coming from the garden and rushes into the house. When she sees Mia sitting in the wheelchair, she is so surprised that she can not speak for a
long time.
"Karin, you're back. Tell Troy you agree me to live in?"
Troy turns around with a sullen face, waiting for her answer.
Karin swallows her saliva, steps forward and says, "I only promised to discuss with him, but not to agree you to live in the house. I have told you clearly that this house is not mine and I have no right to let you live in it."
