âNonsense! I just listen to the Buddhist stories to learn the lessons of life, which makes me feel better.â
âReally?â Troy eagerly asks.
âYep.â
âThen hurry up and come back!â
â...â Karin rubs her forehead. âNo, I have more stories to listen to.â
âWhat? I can tell you stories if you want. I promise my stories are the best ones that youâve never heard before.â
âSave it! Your stories are nothing to the Buddhist stories, okay?â
âWhatâs wrong with you? How could you look down upon your fiancé? The Buddha wonât forgive you.â
âHe will as Iâm telling the truth.â
Troy is angry. âDonât you talk to the fucking monks ever! Youâve been brain-washed by them to argue with me.â
âI want to be brain-washed. Hope youâd take a chance to be brain-washed by them, too.â
Then Karin breaks off the call.
Troy feels exasperated. Karin has hung up on him for the third time. He instantly makes up his mind not to call her anymore. He wants her to miss her and calls him.
Itâs obvious that he has spoiled her. How can she ignore his husbandâs dignity?
Then he lies in the bed with a darkened face.
On the third day, Karin goes to find the monk again, and he smiles at her. âIâll tell you one last story today. I hope the Buddha could help you ease your pain.â
âThanks...â Karin joins her palms in pranam.
Then the monk relates, âWhen a man waited in her car for the traffic lights to turn green, a little boy in rags asked him if he wanted to buy some flowers. The moment he gave the boy the money, the lights turned green, and people behind his cars sounded their horns to urge him to go. Then he rudely yelled at the boy, âJust give the fucking flowers to me now.â But the boy thanked him politely all the same.
Then the man felt guilty of his bad attitude towards the boy. So he immediately pulled aside and apologized to the boy for his rudeness and bought another bunch of flowers for the boy. The boy accepted it with a smile.
However, he found his car broke down when he came back to his car. Suddenly, a breakdown van came to his rescue when he got anxious. The driver of the van gave him a note, which read, âThis is the bunch of flowers youâve bought for me.ââ
This is the last story for Karin, and she thinks, in the three days, the monkâs stories are the best ones to purify her mind and soul that sheâs ever heard.
The monk looks right into her eyes and says, âA brave man is the one can face up the wrong that theyâve done and apologize for it at once. Your kindness can be in exchange of your repay which set you free from your guilty past.â
She rises up to her feet and bows to the monk. âThank you, sir. I know what to do now.â
âYouâre welcome. The credits should be given to the Buddha.â
After visiting other temples and places of interests in India, Karin plans to go back to Zurich earlier.
Troy hasnât called her since their last call, and she doesnât bother to call him, either. She has told him she needs some personal time and space to sort out the problems on her mind.
She doesnât call Troy until she gets to the airport.
Troy is walking out of his office after the meeting when his phone rings off. Heâs over the moon when he finds itâs Karinâs call. He has spent days in waiting her calls but she hasnât called him, not to mention any messages. Heâd have flown to find her but for his tons of work.
He rejects her call and sits in his chair happily as he has successfully defended his male dignity. Robert catches his huge smile when he opens his door, and he asks in a teasing tone, âAre you an idiot? You canât keep your mouth close.â
Troy glares at him. âIâm your boss and I can do whatever I like.â
Then Karin calls him again, and he gets more happier as he rejects her call again, bragging, âYou know, never should a man spoil his girl. As long as he cares for her, sheâll ignore his love and care. If a man occasionally ignores her, sheâll came back to you at a fast clip.â
Not knowing why Troy says so, though, Robert nods and butters him on. âSo it is.â
Robertâs phone suddenly rings off, and he picks it up in Troyâs presence after noticing the number. âHello...right now...Okay, Iâm on my way...â
After hanging up, he says, âExcuse me, Mr. Troy. I have to go as Iâve got things to deal with now.â
âWhat to do?â
âSheâs at the airport now, and she asks me to pick her up, because sheâs lost her purse.â
âWhat?â
Troy hastily rises to his feet. Trying to stay calm, he asks, âDoes she ask you, Robert Gray, to pick her up?â
âYep.â
âBut why?â
âMaybe because you donât answer her call...â
Robert explains in fear as if heâs done something wrong.
Troy quickly gives him a chart. âSort out all the data now.â
âBut Karin is waiting for me.â
âWhoâs your boss?â
âFine. I see...â
After Robert leaves his office, Troy immediately rushes out with his car keys.
The time he gets to the airport, he finds her in a red coat in the crowd. He quickly pulls his car up in front of her, containing his desire to hold her tight in his arms.
Before getting her suitcases stowed and slips into the car, Karin smiles wryly as she stares at the man in sun glasses sitting in the car who pretends to not care about her.
âNot picking up the phone?â
âIâm not here to pick you up, okay?â
Sheâs dumbfounded. âAm I supposed to get off? Fine. Drop me here, please.â
Capture Your Heart ï¤Chapter 193 Opposite of âI Love Youâ 1 The Reunion After Seven Years ï¤Chapter 611 Our Future Wolf President Hooks Up ï¤Chapter 681: The End As soon as she reaches out for the doorknob, Troy drags her back to her seat and buckles her up, whispering through his gritted teeth, âYou have no idea what it means to hang up on me.â
He goes back to work after driving her to the Ziteng Garden. Before leaving, he reminded her, âGet prepared for my rage, babe.â
Karin sighs and hug him, saying gently, âCome back early tonight. I want to talk to you.â
âNo more âI love youâ can save you from the punishment you deserve. Do you know the opposite of âI love youâ?â
She instantly answers, âI donât love you.â
Shaking his head, Troy retorts ruthlessly, âI torture you...â
The he leaves the house. Karin murmurs to herself, âTroie, the opposite of âI love youâ is âCan we get back together...â
He waits for Troy till 6 oâclock, but he doesnât come home. However, here comes Robertâs call.
