Chapter 209 Born for Love, End in Hatred 2
Chapter 209 Born for Love, End in Hatred 2
The engagement ceremony ends successfully, and Karin quietly leaves the scene. She walks on the road alone in contemplation. Everyone has their own different thoughts. What she prefers are beyond the understanding of others; similarly, what others like are beyond her reach. Therefore, she is doomed to be alone.
"Karin, Karin..."
Billie calls her behind her. So she stops and turns back and then asks Billie, "Why do you come with me?"
"Because I want to talk with you."
"But it is your big day. How can you leave now?"
"It doesn't matter. The ceremony ends just now, and it's time for dinner. I can go."
Billie goes into a coffee shop with her. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Listening to the melodious music in the coffee shop, Karin feels better. She is stirring the coffee in the cup while adding sugar to the coffee. Billie looks at her with puzzlement, as if she doesn't know her.
"Is something on my face?"
"No. I remember that you never added sugar when drinking coffee."
Karin smiles and says, "It's too bitter without sugar."
"Why didn't you think that it was bitter?"
"At least I think it was less bitter than now."
It didn't matter even though it tasted bitter before, because she felt happy in her life; however, she only feels pain in her life now.
"Then what are you going to do?"
Billie asks her. She hopes Karin will not be painful anymore.
"I am going to go to Edinburgh."
"Edinburgh? Why?"
"I want to find William."
What? Billie feels surprised and she almost chokes because of the coffee.
"Are you really pregnant with his baby? Are you going to tell him about it?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Then why do you want to find him?"
"I want to ask him whether he lied to me or not. I don't believe he would make love with me when I was unconscious at that time."
"I don't think so. When a man stays together with a woman he likes, especially when they are drunk, he will lose his mind and can't control his desire anymore."
"So you also think that this is his baby?"
Billie shakes her hands quickly and denies, "Of course not. I just think that he might have slept with you at that time. But I don't think he is 100% the father of this baby."
"That is why I have to find him. Now only he can prove that I am innocent."
"Can you contact him?"
"No, I can't. His original mobile phone number has been suspended, and the mailbox where he sent me an email last time has also been deregistered."
"Then how can you find him? Do you know his address?"
Karin shakes her head and says, "I don't know, so it's hard to find him. But I want to try."
"Come on, it's a big city. It's impossible for you to find him in a short time. You are pregnant now. Even if you can find him then, the baby will grow bigger in your womb. What will you do then? What if he says that the baby belongs to him?"
"That's impossible!"
"There is nothing impossible. I don't think you should take the risk."
Billie drinks her coffee and then continues, "If he says this is his baby and asks you to stay with him, you will be in trouble."
"I have thought about it before. But I have no choice now. Troy asked me to make a decision. If I want this baby, I have to leave him; if I choose him, I have to abandon the baby. No matter who the father of this baby is, we have no right to deprive it of its life, right?"
"But you have to make a decision between Troy and your baby. As the saying goes, you can't have your cake and eat it."
Karin keeps thinking about it, and she doesn't know what to do right now. And then Billie suggests to her, "I think you should give up your baby."
She raises her head at once and looks at Billie. She feels shocked because she doesn't believe that Billie would say that as her friend.
"Troy and you are young, you can have babies in the future if you want. I don't think you should give up Troy because of this baby now. Please think twice. Will you feel happy if you leave Troy? Will he be happy if he lives without you in the future? You may think that I am cruel to advise you so, but you have no choice. If you don't want to be painful forever, I think this is the best choice for you."
Karin leaves the coffee shop and comes back to the Ziteng Garden. When she is thinking about what Billie said to her just now, someone calls her.
That is Tory's sister Lily. Lily takes her to her parents' grave and asks her, "Have you made a decision?"
Karin shakes her head with puzzlement, "I don't understand what you mean."
"I know what happened between you and my brother. To be honest, Milan and Stanley did something wrong, but they also paid the price. Yesterday, I saw Troy and found him really haggard. Now, Milan feels sorry for him, so she dares not to see him. So I have to help him as his sister."
"What do you want to say?"
"Please go to the hospital for an abortion operation."
Karin feels shocked. Why don't they think that life is precious?
"You may think that I am cruel. However, life is cruel. If it were not for my sister's involvement in this matter, he might have done something even more unexpected. I am older than you, so I know more about love. No matter how much you love each other, it is impossible to tolerate everything. There are always some things that cannot be tolerated, such as the situation you are facing now."
Lily stops talking for a while and then she holds her hands and continues, "Please think about Troy. If you were him, could you accept this baby?"
"Maybe I can't accept him, but I won't push him to kill the baby."
"Then what are you going to do? Do you want to stay with him forever or leave him?"
"If he can't accept this baby, then I have to leave."
"Why? How do you survive with your baby if you leave him?"
Lily is aggressive, as if she wants to force her until she has nothing to say.
"Maybe it will be very painful, but I will live on well for my baby."
"I don't think you are responsible if you really think so. It will have a great psychological impact on this child if he lives in a single-parent family. Do you think you can take good care of this child and let him live happily by yourself? Besides, I don't think your parents can accept this child because you give birth without getting married. And the most important point is that you don't know who his father is."
Karin feels sad after she listens to Lily.
"Therefore, you can't leave or stay with Troy with this baby. The Charles family will not accept a child born to you and another man. Maybe you think you can take a bet because you have half the odds. But I must tell you the fact that you have almost no chance of winning because you can't afford to lose."
Karin can't help crying and says, "Lily, I understand what you said. But I have to stick to my own principles. If I give up my baby now, I will never forgive myself for the rest of my life. Maybe, I will hate Troy for it, or maybe we can't be together again."
"Don't be so stubborn. He isn't a baby now, he is just an embryo. Believe me, everything will be better. You can marry him and then you can have your own baby. And you will not suffer from it in the future."
Lily looks at her parents' photos and says, "As we all know, my father betrayed my mother. As the child of the Charles family, Troy felt very sad. When we were little, our parents really loved each other. So after we grew up, Troy admired our parents very much. He once told me that he wanted to marry a girl and love her with every fiber of his being, just like my father loved my mother. At that time, our parents were still alive, and they had no any relationship with Mia's parents. I believed him when he talked to me like that. After several years, everything changed. Mia's uncle told us the truth, and Troy really felt sad. However, he told me that he would believe in love even though our father let him down. He said the woman he loved would bring hope to him. In my opinion, you are really important to him. So please don't leave him. Please promise that you will not leave him or abandon him in front of my parents, will you?"
