She smiles and intwines her arm with his. âCome on. Iâm hungry.â
They step into the dining hall together as Yuma has already got the dinner prepared well. On the table is a vase with some roses in it, fresh beads of dews covering it.
âHappy Valentineâs Day!â
Troy hands her an exquisite jewelry box. It takes a moment for her to realize what happened. âIâm so sorry. I donât have any gifts for you as I forget itâs a special day.â
âNever mind, but I think I should get double gifts on the next Valentineâs day.â
Feeling bitterly upset as she nods in agreement. If troy figures out what happened in the hotel, will he love her the same?â
Noticing sheâs absent-minded, he cares about her. âWhatâs on your mind? Arenât you hungry?â
âYes, I am.â
She lowers her head to have some food, trying to conceal her unease.
âIâve been considering if we should hold our wedding in London? I think, at least, we should give it a try, right? Youâll be much happier if your parents attend our wedding.â
Karin puts away her dishes. âIâll go back to my room. Come and find me if you finish your dinner. I want to talk to you.â
Since she wants to have a talk, Troy instantly rises to his feet. âLetâs have a talk now.â
Then they go upstairs together and sit in the sofa face to face. After deliberating for a while, Karin says, âCan we delay the wedding?â
âAgain? Why?â Troy arches his brow with confusion.
âI...I donât think Iâm ready for it.â To be exact, sheâs not in the mood.
âYouâre lying. You came to Zurich at all costs to find me in that you love me and want to stay with me. And thatâs why youâre ready for a wedding.â
âIâve told you in the morning that it seems Iâve got some marriage phobia. I want to take a trip on my own to get relaxed before the wedding.â
âWeâll have a honeymoon trip after the wedding. Plus, Iâll be worried about you if you go on a trip alone.â
Karin knows itâs hard to make him change his mind, but she has made up her mind to follow her heart.
âSorry, Troy. But I really feel awful when I imagine that Iâll stay here forever with you. Iâm under huge pressure now. Please. I really need some personal time and space for a while.â
Watching the anticipation in her eyes, he sighs, âFine. The wedding can be delayed, though, you must travel with me.â
âNo. I want to do it alone.â
âBut...â
âI know youâll worry about me, but I wasnât born yesterday, okay? Lily is a tough girl who can take a trip on her own, and I want to be a tough girl like her.â
âAre you sure you want to do this?â
âOf course.â
She nods firmly.
â...Fine.â
Troy fails to reject her decision as he finds anticipation in her bright eyes.
âHow long?â
âIt depends. As soon as Iâm feeling good, Iâll come back.â
âThen thereâs no trip for you.â
Troy frowns. âWhat if it takes forever?â
âImpossible...â
âI wonât let you go unless you give me a certain time.â
After deliberation, she shows three fingers to him.â
âThree days?â
â...Three months.â
He shakes his head, desperate for kill her.
âFine. One month.â
Troy holds her hands. âDeal! Youâll be my beautiful bride in a month.â
Tears well up in Karinâs eyes. âI will.â
âYou know the consequences if you dare to call me to prolong your trip.â
âActually, maybe Iâll come back earlier.â
âThatâs my girl!â
Troy smiles and hold her tight in his arms, sighing, âItâs harder to get married than to deliver a baby...â
âHave you delivered a baby before?â
âNo, but itâs said delivering a baby is the most difficult thing in the world.â
âItâs for women.â
âNo, itâs for men when their women are suffering.â
Touched by his words, Karin smiles and circles her arms around his necks, saying, âTroy, Iâm the happiest woman in the world when Iâm with you...â
âBut why canât you marry me now?â
âBecause I want to sort out the worries on my mind once for all, or theyâll harm our relationship from time to time.â
âYou just want to run away from me. Go ahead, and Iâll get a new girlfriend.â
âIf so, remember to inform me, so I donât have to come back...â
âShit! You are such a tease.â
Troy waves his fist.
âYou said youâd get a new one.â
âI was kidding, okay? You donât know how much Iâm in love with you.â
She just wants to piss him off, enjoying his expression of jealousy. All his expressions are her favorite.
âSorry, Troy. I couldnât understand you until now.â
âWhat?â
She lowers her head. âDonât you get it?â
âYour parentâs opinion about me?â
âYep...â
âThatâs why we should meet them.â
âNot now. After I come back from the trip.â
âWhoâd have thought as perfect as a rich man like me would fear my future father-in-law?â
âI believe...â
Karin gives him a half smile. âTake it easy. You will definitely get along well with my father since youâre so awesome.â
âHurry up and take me to meet him!â
âBut youâre filthy rich, not to mention your home is in Zurich.â
Troy gets shocked and widens his eyes? âIs it wrong to be filthy rich?â
âNo, but youâre rich enough to have a bad reputation, in my dadâs opinion.â
âYou know Iâm different.â
âBut my dad has a stereotype of rich people like you.â
Troy rolled his eyes. âNo offense, but I have to say.â

âObviously, your father is poor in choosing his future son -in-law. Why does he want you marry a mammonist?â
âYou mean Barry?â
âBingo!â
âUnlike you, Barry is good at brown-nosing the elders. My dad is just fooled by him, okay?â
