Frowning slightly, Troy shows concern on his face.
He raises Karin’s hand and asks with concern, "Does it hurt?"
"No." She shakes her head.
"Why did you come to her?"
"I wanted to visit her…"
"She will not accept your kindness."
"I know, I don’t need that."
"Don’t be silly again."
"If you don’t like that, I won’t be there again." She lowers her eyes.
"It is not about whether I like it or not. I don’t want you to get hurt. She is likely to do anything with her
mental state."
"Okay."
Billie comes over, "Troy, we have had food yet. We are hungry."
He shows a smile, "What would you like to eat?"
"Steak."
Troy takes them to a western restaurant. After the beef is served, Karin is about to pick up the knife
and fork. Troy takes them and says, "Your hand is injured. I will do it."
Seeing that he cut the beef into pieces, Billie is jealous. When will Robert treat her like this?
"Take it."
Troy puts the beef in the front of Karin. Seeing her chewing slowly, he feels relieved.
"Have some juice."
He helps the juice to her. She has it with straw.
Billie cannot stand it and said with dissatisfaction, "Can you stop? I am jealous!"
Karin glances at her, "Don’t raise your head."
"I am not deaf, I can hear your voice."
Billie puts a piece of beef into her mouth and begins to chew. She rolls her eyes and then she says to
Troy with a smile, "Troy, I haven’t seen your assistant recently. Isn’t he close to you?"
"He does not need to stay with me all day. He has a lot of things to do."
"Oh? So he is busy?"
"Yes."
She takes a deep breath and continues after a pause, "Can you do a favor for me?"
Karin thinks if Billie wants Troy to introduce her to his assistant.
"What is it? I will help you if I can."
"Can I have a part-time job in your company? I want to earn some living expenses. The price in Zurich
is too high."
Troy is stunned and later nods, "Sure."
"Really? Great! Thank you! Thank you so much!"
Billie is excited. Now she has chances to see Robert. Since they work in the same company, sooner or
later, he will become her man.
Before the lunch finishes, Troy’s phone rings. He hangs up after a few talks and then he says to Karin,
"I need to leave now. Can you stay here with Billie?"
"Yes."
He stands up and says to Billie, "Please take care of her."
"Don’t worry. I will take care of her as my highness."
"I am not a highness."
Karin says looking at Troy’s back, "You called him, right?"
"Yes, any problem?"
"Why did you call him? He is busy at work."
"You are more important than work. You are injured, he should show up."
"It is not a big deal compared with Mia."
She picks up the juice and takes a sip, frowning, "Have you decided to approach Robert?"
"Yes, I will miss him if I don’t approach him now. If he has a relationship with a woman later, I will have
to give up."
"Give up now."
"Why?"
Billie is nervous, "Does he have a girlfriend now?"
"To tell you the truth," Karin signs, "Troy knows you like Robert. He agreed that you work in their
company, because he knows that even if you work in his company, Robert will not like you."
"Why? Why is he sure about that?"
"Because Robert has a fiancée, Gigi, Troy’s cousin. I have seen Gigi. She is arrogant. Robert does not
like you now. Even if he likes you, dare you steal the son-in-law of the Charles family? Gigi will not let
you go!"
Billie is shocked to hear that. She freezes and then she burst into tears, "He has a fiancée… why…
why didn’t you tell me before…"
Karin explains, "I was afraid that you would be sad. See? I tell you now and you are sad. Never mind,
don’t take other’s man. You can find another one, okay?"
"No!"
Billie pats the table heavily and says, with tears streaming down, "I will not give up. He has just been
engaged. I don’t mind it. I will wait for him to break the engagement. If he is married, I will wait for him
to get divorced. I only have him in my life."
Karin shakes her head. Sometimes, she admires the stubborn Billie.
Troy does not go back to the company, but to the house of Paul Wong, Mia’s uncle.
He makes a call to Troy, saying that he has important things to discuss.
For the sake of Mia, Troy comes to his house. Troy couldn’t be bothered to meet him as Paul has
betrayed him, even though it was for Mia. But Troy does not accept any betrayals.
"What do you want to talk with me?"
"Mr. Troy, follow me please."
Paul closes the door after they walk into the study. A secret will be prevailed.
"No way!"
Troy pinches Paul’s neck. There is angry fire in his eyes, as if burning Paul to death.
"Believe it or not, I am telling you the truth. I have evidence."
"What evidence?"
Troy turns pale on face, shivering.
Paul pulls open the drawer, "This CD is a proof, but I will give it to you, unless you marry Mia."
"Do you think you have trapped me? Mia has used your tricks. Change your way next time!"
Troy snorts and is ready to leave. Paul stops him, "Wait."
"I can play this CD to you."
He stops his pace without turning his head. Paul puts the CD into the computer and the voice from the
computer makes Troy shocked.
He rushes to the computer, staring at the screen of the computer. He is cold on face, clenching his fist
and gritting his teeth.
But it stops at the critical moment. He grasps Paul’s collar, "Why did it stop? Why did it stop at the
critical moment?"
"There is one CD, but I divided it into two. You have seen the first one, and I hid the other one and set
password. Except for me, no one in this world knows about it. If you want the second one, get married
to Mia, and I will give it to you on the wedding day."
"Aren’t you afraid that I will kill you?"
With killing intention in his eyes, Troy cannot almost control himself.
"As you like. But if you kill me, you will never know the truth. There are two men know about the truth,
one has disappeared, and the other one is me. I am your biggest hope."
