Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 131

"No way." Karin grows more and more frightened. If so, then she will be done for.

Will Uncle Lennon just leave her alone?

Karin arrives at Uncle Lennon’s mansion in fear. Charles Family is indeed one of the richest families in the world. The house is extravagant and grand, even more so than those of the local authorities.

When she gets out of the car, Karin grabs Troy’s arms and enters in. She thinks, is this all rich people live for? Having a party every day? This means they are more superior and noble? How boring!

"Troy, you are here."

Lily says hello to Jessica and Troy, smiling. Beside her is a middle-aged man with a square face who has big eyes and brush eyebrows. He seems serious and looks melancholy.

Karin knows for sure that this man is the one who makes Lily cry last time. He does not want to be trapped by marriage.

"Yes."

Troy nods at that man as a greeting. He does not call his name or exchange the usual pleasantries with the man.

"Hey, why don’t you talk to your brother-in-law?"

"He is not. They haven’t been married."

"But almost?"

"What?"

"They are getting married soon?"

"You can ask them yourself."

Troy just says it casually. But Karin takes it seriously. She turns around, trying to make her inquires. Troy stops her, "You really want to ask them?"

"It does not matter."

"Have anyone told you that you are a busybody?"

Karin shakes her head, "No."

"Then I’ll tell you. You are."

Troy stares at her, and then grabs her arms. They walk into the central hall hand in hand.

As expected, Karin clearly feels the hostility around even though she is with Troy now. It seems that even a family banquet is not easier than a business dinner.

Troy greets his uncles one by one. Standing by his side, Karin also gives her greetings. Although they do not respond fervidly, this is the best she can thinks of. However, Uncle Emmanuel greets her warmly.

"Hey, Miss Karin looks very beautiful today. Even the ladies of our family cannot compare with you."

Emmanuel exclaims from his heart. He does not call her Karin. Instead, he adds Miss, calling her Miss Karin.

Karin blushes, saying, "Thank you, Uncle Emmanuel."

She moves her eyes after seeing Gigi’s mutinous look. But before that, she gives Gigi a smile.

"Uncle Emmanuel?"

Gigi raises her chin arrogantly and says, "Dad? Has Brother Troy gotten married? Why does she call you uncle?"

"Gigi, behave yourself."

Emmanuel glares at Gigi, scolding.

And then he turns to Karin, "She is spoiled by me. Please forgive her."

"I don’t mind. I like Gigi. She is straightforward and outspoken, just like me. But this also makes it easy to offend people."

"I am not like you." Gigi retorts back, "Don’t put feathers in your cap."

After she finishes her words, Gigi immediately rushes towards somebody, saying, "Hey, Robert."

Karin turns around, only to find Robert in a suit, going towards them. Gigi has affectionately taken his arms. Karin feels sorry for Billie when she sees this.

"Mr. Troy and Miss Karin."

Robert nods in greeting. Karin gazes at him with a meaning look and says deliberately, "I haven’t expected that Robert is Gigi’s boyfriend."

"He is my fiancé, not boyfriend."

Gigi corrects the title Karin uses. She tries her best to tell the world that Robert is hers.

There is gloom in Robert’s eyes. But he says nothing.

"Let’s walk around."

Knowing Karin is in a bad mood now, Troy leads her to somewhere else.

"Hey, Arya."

"Wow, is this Karin? You are so beautiful that I even failed to recognize you."

Arya looks up and down at the stunning Karin with surprise.

"Are you envious? No need. You are also very beautiful when you are young."

Troy tries to make fun of her. Arya pretends to be angry, "You mean I am old?"

"No, I dare not. Lily does not get old. How could you?"

"Oh, stop it."

"By the way, have you seen Milan?"

This is what Karin want to know. She fears most about Milan but strangely, she has not seen Milan since she arrived.

Devoted to the family, she should have been there on such an occasion.
