"As long as you stay with me, except marriage, I can give you everything, my love, my heart, and
everything about me."
Karin laughs sarcastically, as if she has heard the most ridiculous joke in the world. It is not until tears
of laughter flow over her face that she constricts her smile and says sadly, "What I want is something
you can't give. Troy, one day you will understand how important marriage is to a woman!"
She flees in the direction of the door angrily. She just wants to leave this sad place even if she has to
give up everything...
How could Troy let her leave? He pulls her back to the house, closes the door fiercely, and yells, "Why
must you leave me?!"
"Because you let me down! You said that you would never give up on me. You said that as long as I
bet, you won't let me lose. You also said that the same experience does not mean that there will be the
same destiny. Everything you have said is a lie, and none of them are fulfilled. Why should I stay by
your side and be deceived by you?"
"I have never lied to you. My feelings for you are real. Do you need me to show you my heart?"
"No!"
Karin struggles, "I just want to leave. I don't want to stay here for a minute, let me leave!"
"I won't let you go!"
He pushes her down on the bed, leans down and kisses her lips. The savage and cold kiss falls on her
face like. She suddenly remembers what he had said that night on the boat. She is extremely ashamed
and angry, she roars hysterically, "Get away!"
Troy stuns. He looks at her in pain. Does she really hate him so much?
"Do you want me to have a baby for you again? Do you want to tie me up with a baby again? You are
so smart, thinking that if I have your baby, I can't bear to leave again?" Karin turns and sits up. She
says incisively, "Never think about restraining me with a child again! I will never have your child if I am
not your wife! Never think about it in your life!"
"You…"
Troy is finally irritated by her last words. He raises his hand, but he can't bear to slap her.
Karin looks at his hand coldly. The hand she used to draw circles there, the hand carried her many
expectations and fantasies, but now...
"Do you want to hit me? Just do it! Hit!"
The hand falls slowly, and finally does not fall on her face, but takes her into his arms.
Troy says in a humble tone, "Karin, you are like a hedgehog. When I hold you and blood drips on you,
you say I hurt you, but you don't know that blood is mine."
Karin feels her consciousness fade. She just feels very tired, and then she loses consciousness...
When she wakes up again, she does not open her eyes immediately, but listens to the people around
her. A strange man says, "It's not a big problem. She just fainted because she was under too much
pressure. I'll give her a few pills to relieve the pressure and she'll wake up soon."
"Okay, thank you."
Troy tells Yuma, "Send Doctor Peter downstairs."
As they walk away, her hand is held by him. She is clearly awake, but she doesn't want to face him. So,
she pretends to be asleep. He sits beside her for a long time, but doesn't say a word from beginning to
end.
After he leaves, she turns over and sits up. The first thing she does is pack her bags and prepare to
leave. Her determination to leave is just like Troy's determination to avenge. In fact, they both are very
stubborn.
When Yuma sees her going downstairs with a suitcase, she is scared, "Miss, what are you doing?"
"I want to leave here," Karin says lightly.
"You can't leave!" Yuma drags her, "Mr. Troy ordered not to let you go."
"Yuma, let go."
Karin is frustrated. She is no longer as vigorous as she said she wanted to travel with her luggage. The
ruthlessness of fate has polished all her strength.
"You can't go, there are six people outside guarding the door. You can't escape even if you can fly..."
Yuma is unbearable. She really doesn't want to say something that makes her sad.
Karin doesn't believe it. She rushes to the door. But as Yuma said, six men in black suits reaches out
and stops her, "Miss Karin, please don't embarrass us."
Turning around blankly, she doesn't make them embarrassed, but she starts being so hard on herself.
She goes on a hunger strike, neither eating nor drinking. She locks herself in the house without seeing
anyone.
Yuma has no choice but to call Troy. He is on a business trip, and when he receives the call, he
immediately asks Robert to book the return ticket.
When he arrives at Ziteng, it is already the next evening. He asks Yuma in a deep voice, "Is she still not
eating?"
"Yes, since you left yesterday morning, she hasn't even drunk water."
Troy goes upstairs sadly and knocks on the door, "Karin, open the door."
There is no reaction in the room. He becomes nervous and slams the door.
Karin stands in front of the French window. She looks so thin that it seems she would fall down in a
gust of wind. However, she is helpless and stubborn. Seeing that she doesn't take her own life, he
sighs with relief.
"Why hunger strike?"
Walking behind her, he asks angrily.
"If you want to put me under house arrest, then wait to collect the body for me!"
She turns around. Her face is as pale as a piece of white paper. She has nothing now. The only thing
she can keep is this last dignity.
"Karin, don't you be so stubborn, OK? I don't put you under house arrest. I just want you to give me
one month, just one month. One month, okay?"
"I can't believe you again and again, it's impossible..."
He stares at her up close. There is no love in her eyes. In addition to the bottomless despair, there is
only hatred, full of hatred.
"Well, I promise you that if I fail in a month, I will let you go!"
"It is simple to say it. Let me go if you fail in a month? Then in this month, am I going to wait for the
result with fear every minute? You make me bet again and again. Have you ever thought about me?
What else can I bet on? I have nothing left!"
"Since you have already gambled, why can't you gamble again?" When Troy sees her refusing to
agree, he feels sad.
"I'm not as strong as you thought. I lost this time. I still have the courage to live. If I lose again next
time, I won't even have the courage to live!"
"You won't necessarily lose, you may win. If you give up now, then there is really no hope..."
"I no longer look forward to the beautiful bloom of love. I just want it not to tear my heart again! Troy,
please let me go!"
Troy has never been so painful. He finds a sharp dagger from the bedside cabinet and hands it to her
calmly, saying, "Stab me, I will let you go now."
He points to the position of his chest.
"Do you think I dare not?"
Karin's tears roll in her eyes, but she tries to keep it from falling.
"Then poke me."
He takes a step forward, she steps back. He still goes forward, and she has no choice but to retreat.
When she finally cannot retreat, she grits her teeth and says, "Troy, don't force me..."
She leans against the wall, trembling slightly. The tears accumulate more and more in her eyes, and
her eyes are blurred. Just when she is about to put down the hand holding the knife, he slams into it by
himself and the dagger stabs his chest. The bright blood instantly dyes his white shirt, and her tears
finally fall.
The poppy red blooming on his chest, just like three years ago, when she first met him...
