Capture Your Heart

Chapter 280 The Man Karin’s Grandmother Loves 1

She cautiously asks Robert, "The way you see it, who should be the one that secretly warned us?"

"I simply don’t have an answer. Could it be Molly?"

Karin shakes her head, "No way. She followed you and Troy last time because she liked Troy. Now that Troy isn’t with us. She has no reason to help us again."

"Moreover, we haven't even met Mr. Simon. It's even more unlikely that she has met him."

"I have an answer in my heart."

"Who is it?"

She bites her lips, "Forget it. It can't be. It won't be him."

"However, can this note be a fake one too? I'm so scared of being calculated now."

Robert rubs his hair in distress.

"When we meet the real Simon, we'll know if the note is real or fake."

"The key is how we can meet him."

"Tomorrow, we'll go to his company again. And we'll stand guard there. I believe that we surely can see him in this way."

"Good."

The next day at ten o'clock in the morning, the fake Simon calls back to ask why they don’t go over to sign the contract. Karin doesn’t expose his fake identity. Instead, she says apologetically that they aren’t going to sign the contract and that they will return to Zurich the day after tomorrow.

For their sudden reversal, Simon looks very surprised and flustered, insisting that they go over to discuss it with him face to face, saying that they can hold a discussion. But Karin refuses politely and hangs up the phone.

She and Robert sit in a car. And the car stops at the entrance of the Red Sun Real Estate. At 11:45 a.m., a line of people walks out from the revolving door. And the one taking the lead is an old man in his fifties. As soon as Karin glances at him, she feels that she has met him some time ago. So she hurriedly pushes open the car door, intending to get out, Robert pulls her, "Don’t take the risk to go over. He probably isn’t the person we're waiting for."

"My intuition tells me it has to be him. My intuition is always accurate."

Karin insists on getting out of the car, catches up with the group, and shouts anxiously, "Wait a minute."

The elder who is about to get into a car turns his head back, looks at her with surprise, and asks, "Is there something wrong?"

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Simon?"

He nods, "Yes, who are you?"

Karin breathes a long sigh of relief, thinking that she finally meets the person she is looking for. After the previous deception, she is no longer happy in her heart. Instead, she is a little sad.

"I am Joe's daughter-in-law. My name is Karin."

"Joe?" The old man suddenly opens his eyes wide and asks incredulously, "How did you, Joe's daughter-in-law, get here?"

"It's a long story. Can you spare some time so that we can find a place to talk?"

He ponders on it for a moment, "Okay. Then let's go eat together first and talk over the meal."

Karin and Robert get into his car. The car stops at a restaurant specialized in Hong-Kong-style food. After they enter the pre-booked private box, Simon says, "Why did you come to England? What do you want to see me for?"

Karin then tells him the ins and outs, including the previous deception. And surprisingly, the real Simon is very angry after hearing her out. He only asks, "Why didn't Joe's son, Troy, come here?"

"He..."

Karin bites her lips, "Something happened to him."

"What is it?"

Originally, Karin didn’t want to say it. However, Simon insisted on knowing the truth. Helplessly, she has to tell him the truth, "He lost his memory."

"Amnesia? How did he lose his memory?"

She lowers her head, desperately suppressing the urge to cry.

Robert knows she can't recount what happened. So he slowly confesses everything that had happened to the Charlie family to Simon. After listening to his words, Simon sighs regretfully, "I'm sorry. I can't help you."

Karin looks up and asks with teary eyes, "Why?"

She and Robert are both very surprised. They don’t expect the impostor to agree readily and the real one to refuse without hesitation.

"Joe has been a friend of mine for many years. By all means, I should help his descendants. But you guys’ words now make me diffident. Troy suffers amnesia. And if the two of you want to stabilize the overall situation by yourselves, it will be a little difficult."

"It is difficult. That's the reason why I came to you to seek your support. As long as you are willing to lend us a helping hand, we won’t let you down!"

"You even found the wrong person. How can you convince me?"

"We went to your company to look for you. But we didn’t make an appointment with you, we were turned down. But I left a note to your receptionist. She probably forgot to give you the note. That’s the reason why the enemy took advantage of this matter and set us up."

Simon shakes his head, "Whatever the reasons are, I can’t promise you unless Troy comes to me in person. I have to see some hope before I make a decision accordingly."

"But he can't come here now. He has not recovered his memory yet..."

"Then come to me after he recovers his memory. I indeed don’t have any confidence about the two of you."

Karin is sad in her heart. As she sees Simon's resolute attitude, the last trace of hope in her heart is dashed. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

"Mr. Simon, the reason why Young Master Troy lost his memory is that he and I were attacked on our way to England to look for you. A lot of things happened to the Charlie family during this period. We are both rather tired. So it is forgivable for us to make the wrong judgment for a moment. I hope you can understand. Now we only have one month left. If you refuse to help us, we can only watch the Charlie Group be taken over by others. And I believe that if Master Joe knows about this in heaven, he will be upset."

"Even if I help you now, the company will still fall into others’ hands sooner or later. And you two are no match for Emmanuel ."

"Young Master Troy will restore his memory. Please trust us. For the time being, just help us keep the executive power of the company."

"Sorry, forgive me, I still can't agree to your request."

Simon seems to be quite determined. No matter how hard they try to convince him, he refuses to be swayed in the slightest.

Karin takes a deep breath sadly and finally gives up. And she stands up, "Mr. Simon, since you insist on not helping us, we won't force you. Sorry for the disturbance. Goodbye."

She and Robert bow deeply and gloomily exit the box.

After they exit the restaurant, Robert grits his teeth and says, "I indeed can’t expect Master Joe's friend to be so insensible."

"Forget it." Karin faces the sunlight and sneers, "Don't count on anyone. Book a flight and go back to Zurich tomorrow."

Late at night, she can't sleep. So she puts on a jacket and stands in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hotel, overlooking the city which is more beautiful at night than it is during the day. And she can’t be more melancholy, feeling that there isn’t even a single gentleness in the city where people are cold and indifferent. After all, someone, who has been in depression, won’t have a colorful life.

Karin thinks that she fails to fulfill the unfinished wish for the man she loves. And there is an indescribable frustration in her heart. She feels very tired and exhausted. Even so, she can’t stop

feeling that someone behind her is always pushing her. When she wants to pause, she ends up being numbly pushed to move forward.

As she is alone in her room, she quietly enjoys the loneliness that no one else can relate to. The night is quiet. And there is a kind of indescribable pain in her heart. In the end, helplessly, she can only leave all of these to the silent night sky as well herself who is silent under the night sky.

Karin has a sleepless night. Early in the morning, Robert knocks on the door, "Mrs. Karin, are you done with packing up your things?"

She opens the door with her luggage in her hands and says feebly, "Let's go."

The two of them walk out of the hotel, stop a car, and head in the direction of the airport.

On the way to the airport, Karin's cell phone rings. And it is a call from an unfamiliar number. She presses the answer button and suddenly hears a familiar voice, feeling surprised and nervous, "Mr. Simon, we are on the way to the airport. What do you call me for? "

"It is about the investment. Come to my company to talk about it."

Karin thinks she has heard his words wrong. So she asks with uncertainty, "You are considering helping us, right?"

"Yes."

She covers her mouth in surprise and nods her head repeatedly, "Good. We'll go there right away!"

Hanging up the phone, she immediately says to the driver, "We aren’t going to the airport. Go to Red Sun Real Estate instead."

Robert asks in surprise, "Has he changed his mind? Has he indeed decided to help us?"

"Yes, that's what he said."

Karin can’t be more excited in her heart. she doesn't expect that after one night, the desperate situation will soon be turned around. As the saying goes, where there is a will, there is a way.
