Then tears run out of Jacob\u2019s eyes, as well as Karin\u2019s. She\u2019s moved by his gratitude, but grieved over his sin.<\/p>\n
\u201cSis, could you help me with one last thing?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIf possible, could you please visit my mother for me? She\u2019s an old woman of bad luck as she\u2019s lost her favorite three\u2014my father, my sister and me. His present husband is a son of a bitch, failing to take good care of her. Last time my mom was ill but my stepfather didn\u2019t have money to bring her to hospital. I was desperately needed money to cure her, and I asked my boss to give me the murder task which I hadn\u2019t done any like that before. Six years ago, when I left home to make a living, my mom told me not to do evil for a rich life. So, I didn\u2019t do dirty work for my boss, and he disliked me for staying poor and low. But last time was an exception as I wanted to save my mom. I didn\u2019t want her o die like my sister. The murder task upset me a lot, and I drowned my sorrows which caused the tragedy. What a loser I am!\u201d<\/p>\n
Jacob slaps himself in the face, and his thin shoulders tremble due to his sorrows.<\/p>\n
\u201cStop!\u201d<\/p>\n
Karin wants to stop him and says, \u201cI\u2019ll get you out of here. Trust me. I will.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, you can\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jacob shakes his head. \u201cI\u2019ve sentenced to death. Although I\u2019m know little about law, but I know no one can save me.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI won\u2019t give up until the last second.\u201d<\/p>\n
Karin wipes away her tears. \u201cTrust me. I\u2019ll get you out.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI would appreciate it if you\u2019d often visit my mother for me\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
He can\u2019t ask for much of her.<\/p>\n
\u201cFine. I promise I will.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then Karin goes to the Charles Group. Although she doesn\u2019t want to, but she has to go there for Jacob.<\/p>\n
After deliberating for a while outside Troy\u2019s office, she brings it up and knocks on the door.<\/p>\n
\u201cMiss Karin?\u201d<\/p>\n
Here comes Robert\u2019s voice from behind, and she swivels to ask, \u201cIs he in the office?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhere\u2019s he?\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert shakes his head. \u201cAfter you left, he\u2019s been sad. He called this morning that he\u2019d be away for three days. He didn\u2019t tell me his destination\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Karin hastily says, \u201cCould you please save Jacob?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cJacob?\u201d He frowns with confusion. \u201cWho?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe murder who was hired by Mia and ruined the wedding ceremony.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy save him?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s my brother.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYour brother?\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert was shocked to death\u2026<\/p>\n
\u201cI regard him as my brother.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then she tells him the story of her and Jacob. Robert lets out a long sigh. \u201cHe\u2019s not easy to save unless Mr. Troy saves him.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cCan\u2019t you save Jacob?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSorry I can\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert looks at her with sorry. \u201cEven if Mr. Troy can, he may not.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause Jacob was the one that made Mia lose her legs, which caused a series of troubles for Mr. Troy and stopped him from marrying you. Do you still feel like he\u2019ll save Jacob?\u201d<\/p>\n
Silence spills between Karina and Robert. With red watery eyes, Karin says, \u201cI won\u2019t give up. If he comes back, please let me know, thanks.\u201d<\/p>\n
Watching her sadly leave, Robert sighs again.<\/p>\n
Billie feels surprised when she meets Karin in the school.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat are you doing here, Karin? Are you going to stay?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m here to ask Troy for a favor.\u201d<\/p>\n
Billie widens her eyes and laughs, \u201cI see. You don\u2019t want to leave when you get to the airport, but you are too embarrassed to tell Troy. So, you find an excuse to stay by his side, don\u2019t you?\u201d<\/p>\n
Then she nudges Karin. \u201cDon\u2019t you try to fool me\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Karin rolls her eyes. \u201cNonsense.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat kind of favor do you want?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a long story. Anyways, contact me, if you know where he is.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat? You can\u2019t find him?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYep. He said he\u2019d be away for three days.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHe must be hiding away from you.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think so\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cJacob? The guy hired by Mia?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Troy rises to his feet and walks toward Karin. \u201cHow could you know him?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s one that I saved, but he left without a goodbye.\u201d<\/p>\n
Troy can\u2019t believe Karin saved a murderer.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s hard to make them meet in a big world.<\/p>\n
\u201cGive me a reason to save him.\u201d<\/p>\n
Karin swallows and tells him the touching story of her and Jacob.<\/p>\n
Then she adds, \u201cEverybody can make mistakes, but it\u2019s important to correct them. Therefore, I really hope that you could spare him a chance to reborn.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you truing to let me forgive him?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Troy smirks, \u201cEverybody can make mistakes. Why can he be forgiven, but I can\u2019t?\u201d<\/p>\n
Karin bites her lips and shifts her eyes away. \u201cWe\u2019re talking about Jacob.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat about me?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you save him or not?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
As Robert said, he doesn\u2019t want to save him.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy not?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t you get it? Who makes you angrily argue with me like this?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cFine. Jacob was the murderer, but don\u2019t you forget that he didn\u2019t plan the murder. It was Mia who took the charge, and she was the real murderer. Why don\u2019t you put her into the prison?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s already pathetically disabled. She\u2019d die in the prison.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShe deserves it. If you can forgive her, then you\u2019ll forgive Jacob.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was a murderer, and he can become a murderer again. However, Mia is different. I don\u2019t forgive her, instead, I just take pity on her. As a disabled woman, she poses no threats.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou have prejudice. You don\u2019t know Jacob\u2019s goodness as you haven\u2019t contacted with him. As for evil ones like Mia, they can cause great trouble unless they\u2019re died.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI haven\u2019t contacted with him, and little have you done. You get emotional when he just shed a tear and made up a touching story. I\u2019ve told you more than once that this world isn\u2019t so good as you think it might be.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2704","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2704","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2704"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
