Troy doesn’t tell Robert what his plans are, he only tells him to book a flight as soon as possible and
returns to Charlie Mansion in the evening. Before he walks into the house, he smells the aroma of
dishes, only it doesn’t smell as good as he likes in his heart.
"Mr. Troy is back."
Mary comes forward to take his coat and says delightedly, "Miss Lee is also here and is cooking for you
in the kitchen."
"Oh."
He nods, but he is not surprised, because although Molly has found her father five years ago, she has
visited here often in the past few years, so he is used to it.
He walks straight to the kitchen and stares at her back, thinking five years ago he would always think of
Karin when he saw Molly, and at this moment, watching her preparing the dishes, he thinks of that
woman once again.
"Are you hungry?"
Molly unintentionally turns back, looking at Troy who seems distracted, reveals a big bright smile in her
face.
"Why did you come without any notice?"
"When did I ever come and notice you in advance?" She raises her eyebrows in triumph, "Could it be
that Troy is hiding a woman at your home and I have to get your permission when I come to your home
in the future?"
Troy laughs lightly, "That's not true, it's just that I often don't come back for dinner and I'm afraid I'll
waste your time in cooking the foods."
"Do you think I will do something that I am not sure of? I've already confirmed your schedule with
Robert."
Molly spats her tongue mischievously and points outside, "Take a break in the living room, there's a lot
of cooking smell here."
"Okay."
Troy walks out and sits on the sofa in the living room, closes his eyes and falls into a false sleep, he
didn't sleep well last night and soon falls into a half sleep, he dreams of Karin, she is walking towards
him and is about to grab his hand when he hears a loud sound, she falls down slowly in front of him,
behind her two men with sinister faces are standing there, laughing evilly.
"Karin... "
He wakes up suddenly, his heart is beating fast that is about to jump out of his throat. It turns out that is
is a dream, but his is so uneasy. He then takes out his cell phone in a panic, and is about to call her to
confirm her safety when Molly’s voice comes from behind him, "Having a nightmare?"
He is stunned, he puts the phone back on the table and nods with a sigh.
"Is everything okay?"
Molly goes around to sit in front of him, takes out a soft handkerchief from her pocket, and is about to
wipe the cold sweat from his forehead when he reaches out and stops her, "I am okay, is the dinner
ready?"
"Yes."
"Then let's eat, I'm hungry."
He gets up first, and Molly follows him over, the two sit down at the table face to face, Troy doesn’t say
a word. It is obvious that he has something hiding in his mind.
"Aren't you hungry? Why do you look so absent-minded."
Molly puts a piece of ribs into his bowl, "How does it taste? I learn it newly from the old nanny at home,
my dad hasn't even been lucky enough to taste it yet."
"Yes, it is good."
Troy pretends to taste it, although he is sitting here, but his heart already goes somewhere.
"I hears that you are going to Edinburgh again?"
Molly puts down the chopsticks in her hand, having lost her appetite because of the absent-minded
man in front of her.
"Yes."
"Why? Your company is in such a mess, it's not a good time to leave, do you know?"
"Yes."
"Then why do you still want to leave?"
"I have my reason to leave."
"Because of that woman?"
Molly asks excitedly, her eyes revealing an indefinable complexity.
"It's a personal matter for me."
"After cooperating with you so many times, this is the only time I regret. If I has known that this is the
result of my doing, I would not have gone to Edinburgh with you."
After listening to her words, Troy falls into thought for a moment and raises his eyebrow and says in a
serious tone, "Molly, to tell you the truth, that woman is of immeasurable importance in my heart, we
separated five years ago due to a misunderstanding, but I have never forgotten her for one day in
these five years. Even if you don’t propose to develop our business in Edinburgh, one day I still will go
there on my own. It’s a result that will come sooner or later."
Molly looks at him in shock, although she has long known that he loves a woman in his heart, but she
has never thought that he would one day face up to his feelings, does this mean that the secret she is
hiding in her heart will be kept secretly for the rest of her life?
"Hurry up and eat, I'll send you back when we finish our dinner."
"So you're going to Edinburgh this time to get her back?"
He lowers his eyelids, "If she is willing, I am planning to it."
Molly is completely losing hope, she loses control and says, "Several of your uncles are now using that
woman as their weapon to fight against you, why are you still wanting her back? Aren't you giving them
more opportunities to attack you?"
"It doesn't matter."
Troy says with a firm attitude, "I'm not the kind of man who gives up love for his career, that woman is
an integral part of my life, not to mention that there is a child between us. I have given up on her once,
and I will not give her up this time."
Whatever it costs... he says to himself in his heart.
After Troy leaving them, Karin's life goes back to the way as it is from the very beginning. She goes to
work at nine in the morning and comes home at five in the afternoon every day.
William is still very nice to Esme. When Troy appeared in her life at that time, he was very smart not to
get close to her, because he knew that the man is more qualified than him to stand by the side of the
child.
The company's crisis has been overcome by his hard work, perhaps he is clear who does this to his
company, and he doesn't want anyone to take responsibility, but every time he sees Karin, his eyes are
full of mixed emotions.
On Friday afternoon, Karin has a financial statement that needs William's signature. Usually, she would
leave such work to her assistant because she doesn’t want to meet him too often, but today her
assistant is off work, so she has to hand it to him in person.
When she arrives at the manager's office, she knocks the door and no one answers, so she walks in
directly and puts the file on his desk and is about to leave. But she returns to look at the files on the
desk, and accidentally finds a file is stamped with the postmark of Zurich.
She looks around, although she knows it is not good to do this, but she could not resist the curiosity
and open the file.
After checking through a few pages, there is nothing special about it, but when she turns to the last
page, she suddenly sees the legal representative's signature, and she freezes...
Emmanuel Charlie...
How could it be him? How could the legal representative of Hankseuk be Emmanuel Charlie? Karin's
brain is about to explode and her whole body freezes there.
She doesn’t come to her sense for a long time, and only when hearing footsteps coming from outside
the door does she finally come back from her confusion and bewilderment, she puts the documents in
her hands back in place, and picks up her own documents, and leaves the office quietly.
When she returns to her office, she still could not come out of her shock and begins to wonder deeply,
what is William's relationship with Emmanuel Charlie? Hankseuk Group is obviously William's family
business, why would the legal representative be Emmanuel Charlie?
A family business... thinking of it, she realizes that after five years of working here, she has never seen
William's parents, and this discovery makes her even more confused and distressed...
She really does not want to live in the world that is full of deception all the times.
Before leaving the office in the afternoon, she calls the manager's office, it is answered by William, to
make sure he has returned, she retakes the files to find him to sign.
"Mr. William, please sign this file for me."
She hands the files to him, desperately restraining the urge to question him, before things are clear,
she doesn’t want to be too suspicious, nor does she want to create any misunderstanding, five years of
living alone, she has learned to be patient.
"Huh, the sun really comes out of the west today, why do you come over in person?"
William signs while looking up and smiling warmly at her.
Looking at his smile, Karin is falling into a momentary bewilderment. Although this man had concealed
things that should not be concealed before, but his care for her and Esme over the past five years has
long made up for his previous mistakes, she would rather believe that he is a good person, and doesn't
want to consider his five years of dedication and sincerity to them as another evil plan.
"My assistant takes a leave of absence."
She explains calmly, wondering how to ask him about his parents.
"Oh, I wonder, should I consider to remove the assistant position in the finance department, so we
should have more opportunities to meet each other in the future."
He is teasing, and the atmosphere is rarely delightful, Karin takes advantage of the situation and says,
"I know how you feel about me, but I also tell you my feelings to you a long time ago, it's impossible for
me to be with you, so you should stop waiting for me, you are not too young, it's time for you to start a
family."
"Oh, now you are concerning my own happiness, it's okay, you should not feel stressed, waiting for you
is my own business."
"But I feel sorry for you if you keep waiting for me, not only feel sorry for you, but also feel sorry for your
parents."
"Why are my parents involved in it?" William stands up and walks to her, "Did my parents ever get you
in trouble?"
