Karin raises her chin and asks, "What's the matter?"
He ponders for a few seconds, "Do you sympathize with Mia?"
"If you just talk about what happened to her, I really sympathize with her."
"Then if I don't marry her, do you think she will give up? Or, can I have a clear conscience with her?"
Karin is startled, and she asks uncertainly, "Troie, what do you want to say?"
"I want to say that I have a way to make her completely give up on me, but it requires your
understanding. Would you like to understand me?"
"What way?"
Her heart is trembling, her hands on his arm slowly retract, and the smile on her face disappears in an
instant.
"The way is..."
"If this way involves marriage, I can't understand you."
Karin interrupts him in time. Her solemn expression shows her firm position.
Because she can't afford to lose, she won't give him a chance to make her lose.
Troy looks at her and his words are stuck in his throat. He turns his head, and a trace of sadness
flashes through his deep eyes.
"Troie, what on earth do you want to say?"
His sexy thin lips muster a wry smile. He gently puts her hairs behind her ears with his fingers, and
shakes his head, "Nothing."
"But…"
His cell phone rings. He glances at the number, gets up to connect it, and says coldly, "What's the
matter?"
"Let's meet in your private club."
Hanging up the phone indifferently, Troy walks to Karin, "Karin, I am going out to deal with some things
now. You go to bed first, don't wait for me."
“Okay.”
She nods and sends him to the gate of the garden.
Troy drives to the club, where Paul has already been waiting. Entering the box, Troy asks bluntly,
"What's the matter?"
"I went to see Mia in the afternoon. She was in a bad mood. Did you tell her something?"
"She has always been in a bad mood. Why do you think it’s because I told her something?"
"Because only you can affect her emotions."
"If you come to me only to question me about these things, I am leaving. I don't have so much time to
listen to your nonsense."
Troy gets up and is about to leave, but Paul stretches out his hand to stop him, "Don't you want to
know the cause of your parents' death?"
"Of course I want to know, but will you tell me?" He glances at Paul mockingly.
"As long as you promise me that your wedding to Mia will be held as scheduled, I can tell you now."
He smiles blankly, "Even if you don't say it to me, the wedding will be held as scheduled. This is what I
owe her."
"Well, I hope you keep your words!"
Paul breathes a sigh of relief, "I will tell you the truth now. The woman who had an affair with your
father is actually my sister Gloria."
"What did you say?"
Troy turns around in shock and pinches Paul’s neck.
"The disc in my hand was recorded by a detective. At that time, I only had some suspicions about it.
Later, they were proved to be true. Your father did have an affair with my sister, and it lasted a long
time."
"Give me the disc."
"I won't give it to you now, because I don't want Mia to know about it. I don't want her to know that her
mother has betrayed her father."
"If what you said is true, I won't be able to marry your niece. This is caused by her mother's fault!"
"If what I said is true, you must marry Mia!"
Paul pauses, then he grits his teeth and says, "Because the murderer is your mother Evelyn!"
With a sound, Troy suddenly slams Paul's face with a punch, and smashes him on the ground, "Don’t
you dare to slander my mother! Are you seeking death?"
"I didn't slander her. It was her plan to make the two families travel together. She couldn't stop your
father's extramarital affair, so she thought of dying together. My brother-in-law was the most pitiful. He
was the only one in the dark about the whole thing. It was your mother who installed the detonator on
the ship and killed them overnight! The misfortune of the previous generation and the next generation
were all caused by your mother! She was the source of all misfortune!"
"Nonsense!"
Troy grabs Paul's collar, and smashes his face with punches until his mouth is full of blood, but Paul
doesn't ask for mercy, let alone take back what he has said.
"You must be very curious about why I know the truth. Don’t forget that Eira was my sister’s personal
maid. She was the only witness to the tragedy. After the accident, she ran to me and told me the truth. I
told her not to tell anyone about it, and threatened her that once the truth was revealed, she would
definitely die."
Troy is shocked and angry. He takes out the gun from his arms and points it at the man on the ground,
"I will give you one last chance to say that it is not true!"
Paul sneers, "Even if you kill me, the truth will not change!"
He slowly pulls the trigger and the muzzle is about to fire, but at the last second, he raises the gun
above his head. With a sound of “bang”, the bright chandelier falls down, and the room is instantly dark.
"You dare not shoot me. It means you still want to know the truth. You begin to believe that your mother
is the murderer."
"No matter whether my mother is the murderer or not, Mia’s family deserved to die. Those who
intervene in other people's marriages will have to pay heavy prices!"
"It was your father who persecuted my sister! When your father had his eye on my sister, he used the
Charles family's power to force her to become his woman. He suppressed my brother-in-law’s business
and plunged it into a financial crisis. My sister was helpless, so she could only compromise with him.
Later, your mother learned about this. She and your father quarreled many times, and she tried every
means to make your father change his mind but it still didn’t work. That's why the tragedy happened ten
years ago. How pitiful were my sister and my brother-in-law! Because their weak power couldn’t
compete with the wealthy Charles family’ strength, they could only become victims of tragedy..."
"Do you think I would believe what you said? If what you said is true, why didn't you take revenge for
your sister when you knew the truth? Why did you choose to stay in Charlie Group and work hard? "
"I do want to take revenge. But I was worried about my sister's reputation. Since she is dead, there is
no need for others to misunderstand her as a mistress. If it is not for Mia's strong desire to marry you, I
won’t say it until I die of old age. With my ability, I can’t resist the power of the Charles family at all, so
the only thing I can do is keep my sister’s innocence!"
Troy's tall figure is like an iceberg in the dark, exuding extreme chill. He turns around and walks slowly
towards the door.
"After your wedding ceremony, I will give you the disc, so that you can recognize what a despicable
villain your father was!"
Troy drives the car to Charlie Mansion frantically. His heart is numb. After experiencing the shocks of
the truth one after another, he is completely numb.
He enters the living room with a poker face. Mary asks him in surprise, "Mr. Troy, are you looking for
Miss Karin?"
He doesn't speak, and goes straight upstairs into the room his parents once lived in before their
deaths.
