Chapter 239 What If I Need You 4

After putting on the medicine for him, she says to Esme, "Let's go home."

"Can we leave after finishing watching it? It's wonderful."

"No, go home and watch it there!"

"It's only for a little while, it'll be over soon... "

She sighs and sits down next to her daughter unwillingly.

In the past five years, she never thought that one day she would meet Troy again, and she never thought that she would watch TV with him, and she never thought that she would be watching a TV drama where a man abandons a woman. So you can imagine how embarrassed and uneasy she is to sit next to him, but because she couldn't bear to see her daughter disappointed, she has to stay there with her.

Finally the TV drama comes to an end, she gives a long sigh of relief and says to her daughter delightedly, "Can we go now?"

Esme glances at Troy and surprisingly says, "Can I stay here tonight?"

Her words not only surprise Karin, but also Troy.

"Where are you going if you don't go home?"

"Here, I want to sleep with Uncle Troy."

"No, mommy will be scared if I am alone." She deliberately scares her daughter, "If that crazy man appears again like last night, and mommy is alone at home, won’t Esme even worry about mommy?"

Esme bites her lip and falls into a deep thought, seeing her daughter is about to give up her plan, Karin feels a bit delighted secretly, but her daughter surprises her more when she says that,

"Then otherwise mommy will stay here too, anyway, there are many rooms in uncle's house."

Troy can’t help but burst into laughter but doesn’t say anything, but his gaze is firmly fixed on Karin.

"Forget it, you can stay here if you want, and get up early tomorrow, okay?"

She is out of options, she has no way to deal with her daughter, if she doesn’t agree, she is afraid that many other shocking remarks her daughter will make next.

"Won't mommy stay here?"

"I'm going back home."

Karin turns around and walks quickly towards the door, Troy hurriedly catches up with her and lowers his voice and says, "Actually, Esme's proposal, I don't mind it at all, you can stay here too..."

She replies with a sneer, "But I don’t want to stay here... "

For the next few days, every night Troy takes putting on medicine as an excuse to let Karin to go to his home, if she does not go, he has been calling again and again, and if she doesn’t answer the phone, he would directly go down stair to knock the door, in the end, Karin can only make a compromise. No one is by her side, even her closest daughter would betray her!

One evening, when she comes home from work, only the nanny is there, she asks suspiciously, "Where is Esme?"

"At Mr. Troy's house."

"Why did she go to his house before dinner?"

"I don't know, Mr.Troy comes to pick her up."

Karin sits down on the sofa in depression and is thinking about whether to get Esme back when her phone rings, she skims at the number and answers, "Hello?" Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

It’s Troy's call, but the other side is Esme's voice, "Mom, could you come here for a moment."

Without waiting for her to ask why, Esme has hung up the phone.

She lets out a long sigh, gets up and opens the door and goes out to Troy's house.

Before she enters the house, she hears the sound of Esme laughing happily, she leans over the door and peers inside the house for a while, seeing Esme standing on the sofa and jumping happily, as if she has taken this place as her own home.

Coughing, coughing...

She pushes the door to go inside, Esme hears the coughing sound and turns her head to look back, saying with a smile, "Mom you're here, Uncle Troy asks you to help him put on medicine."

Troy is just about to sit down when she says, "Come to your room, I will help you put on the medicine there."

She gets into his bedroom first, and when he follows her in, she immediately closes the door and solemnly asks, "When are you going back to Zurich?"

Troy is stunned, "I'll go back when my wound is healed."

"Do you want me to get a mirror for you to look at it? Your wound has almost healed!"

"Almost means it doesn’t heal totally, in order not to get infectious, I should wait until it is completely healed, otherwise when I come back to Zurich, there is no one helping me put on medicine. You also

know, I do not like others to touch my body."

"... "

Karin finally understands who does Esme like, because in this world, Karin can not find other two people that are more likely to make her speechless.

"I'm a little hungry, since you are here, can you help me cook a meal, okay?"

Troy looks at her expectantly, and when he sees that she doesn’t say anything, his expression immediately turns gloomy, "Although I know I have no right to force you and Esme to come back to me, I still hope that in the future, after I leave Edinburgh, I can have some good memories of a family sitting at a table and enjoying a hot meal, that's all."

He manages to win her sympathy, and she nods and goes out of the bedroom.

"Where are you going?"

Troy sees that she doesn’t go into the kitchen, but heads for the door, and calls out to her in confusion.

"I am going to the supermarket."

"I have bought the food, it's all in the kitchen."

She is stunned and goes back into the kitchen and finds that everything is prepared, chicken, duck, fish, rice, oil and salt.

It seems that he really goes to a lot of trouble to have a meal with his children, Karin looks askance in the direction of the living room, she could not tell how she feels.

"Do you want me to help?"

Troy leans to the kitchen door, with a sweating forehead, which is made by his wild playing with Esme.

"No need."

She shakes her head and patiently cut the shredded potatoes in her hand.

"Esme likes me a lot."

"Yes?"

"Then won't you consider letting her know that I'm his father?"

"Do you want to get back together again?" She doesn’t stop the movement of her hands and asks calmly in return.

"I just don't think a child can live without a father... "

"Then otherwise I give Esme to you, since you are so concerned about her."

Karin says with bitterness in her heart, because Troy never understands her. She doesn’t agree to go back together with him, it is because she doesn’t want to have the opportunity to be with him just because of the child, not for love.

"How can that work, how can a child live with just a father but without a mother... "

"Why not? For five years without a father, Esme also grows well. She is accustomed to a single-parent family, why does it matter to live with a mother or a father."

"Then what if Esme says she needs her mother?"

"You are so good at winning her heart, can you handle this problem?"

"No, I mean, what if she says that she needs mommy as well as daddy at the same time, then what should I do?"

"It won't happen, she is never a greedy child."

"Then what if the child's father needs the child's mother?"

Karin's heart beat faster, the knife in her hand land on the side and cuts her finger by accident, she wrinkles her eyebrows in pain, tears gush out of her eyes, Troy grabs her finger and stuffs it into his mouth. He helps her suck out the blood hurriedly.

She cries out not because of the pain, compared to the hardship she has suffered for the past five years, this is not enough to make her cry, the real reason for her tears, is his words, "Then what if the child's father needs the child's mother... "
