After hearing her words, Eric is still reluctant to let her go."But Katrina, you are a girl, and you go to Hadley city alone. How can grandpa trust you? What if that a.s.shole Aaron really... "
Just in case Aaron doesn"t love her anymore, doesn"t want to be together with her.
She"ll get more hurt if she just goes there.
By then, she is a stranger in Hadley city, her family is not around, so how could he not worry about her?
Katrina desperately shakes her head, says with a face of pet.i.tions, "No! Aaron isn"t like that! I believe him! Grandpa, please, let me find him! I really can"t live without him!"
If she runs after Aaron, when she sees Aaron, he really doesn"t love her anymore...
She asks for it. She"s willing to suffer the consequences.
At least, she tries. She struggles. She has no regrets.
Now...
Just because of a breakup call, she even doesn"t see him, and they separate. She is really unreconciled.
Hearing Katrina"s pleading tone, Eric couldn"t bear to refuse her.
But...
He is really worried.
Just when Eric is hesitating and doesn"t know how to say...
"Let her go, grandpa," blurted Joseph beside him, "I"ll send two men to take care of her and a.s.sure her safety."
It is only then that Joseph realizes that Aaron is not the only one to give in this relations.h.i.+p.
Katrina also loves Aaron deeply.
In the beginning, he has said such cold and unfeeling words to her.
He has not hesitated to abandon her. On their wedding day he escaped marriage, leaving her with nothing but indifference and embarra.s.sment, let her be subject to people"s comments and criticism.
But...
It"s been so long.
Katrina doesn"t give up on him. Instead, she is desperate to find him.
That makes sense that...
She loves him, and she believes him.
It is not easy for two people who love and believe each other so much.
Now it seems that...
Even if Katrina never sees Aaron again, there is no room in her eyes or heart for another man.
After all, she has to be immersed in this pain and suffering, rather than...
Let her try.
It would be nice if she and Aaron have a happy ending.
If Aaron does become a vegetable and would never wake up again...
Even if she stays with a vegetable, she"ll be happier than she is, won"t she?
At least she"ll know how Aaron feels about her.
At least she"ll know that Aaron loves her.
So, at this moment, Joseph makes a change.
He wouldn"t stop Katrina and Aaron from seeing each other or stop her from knowing the truth.
Of course, he will do what he promised Aaron.
That"s...
He wouldn"t tell Katrina the truth himself.
Everything is waiting for her to discover slowly.
Joseph has already said this...
Eric could only let Katrina go.
He is afraid that Katrina would become depressed again, which would really overwhelm her after a long time.
"OK, grandpa agrees to let you go to Hadley city, but you must take good care of yourself when you are away from home. If there is anything difficult, just call grandpa, and grandpa will pick you up right away!"
When Eric finally agrees, Katrina"s face light up with a long-lost smile.
"Thank you, grandpa. I"ll take care of myself. I won"t make you worry me."
These days, she has seen her grandfather and Cousin Joseph"s concern for her.
So, just for the people who care about her around her, she will be fine!
After leaving Eric"s study, Katrina goes back to her room to pack up.
After packing up her luggage...
She looks at the baby in the crib and is unbearable to say goodbye.
Since the baby was born until now, she always accompanies him by his side, never leaving him for more than one day.
But today...
She is leaving him for another country, another city.
After all, she gave birth to him.
Only she knows how much she loves her baby.
To tell the truth, she is very reluctant to leave him.
But the journey is tiring, and the baby is too young, so she has to leave him at home.
For the man, she loves, for the integrity of their family...
She has to take the step.
Once...
Aaron always envies the baby and asks her whether she loves him or their baby.
It is then that she might really understand the answer to his question.
She loves the baby, and she loves him, too.
There is no such thing as more or less.
Her love for him is as deep and enthusiastic as his, so she could not lose him.
Katrina kisses her baby"s tiny hands and says with a soft tone, "My baby, mom is going to Hadley city to find your dad today. In the next few days, you may not see me anymore. You at home, must be good, do not disturb great-grandfather"s rest, do you hear?"
"Baby, mother promise you, I will bring back your father. You must bless the mother and find the father quickly, OK?"
Katrina says goodbye to her baby with a tender look on her face.
The baby lying on the bed does not know what has happened, but is very happy to see her and shakes his hands and smiles happily.
Even if there is more reluctance, after all, she is to leave.
Even if she leaves Eric, Joseph, there are so many nannies in the villa that they will take good care of her son.
Katrina finally comes out of her room with her luggage.
Joseph naturally takes the luggage in her hand and says, "I have already booked the ticket for you. And I have already arranged for someone to contact the place of residence in the Hadley city. Come on, and I will take you to the airport."
Upon hearing Joseph"s words, Katrina is moved beyond words.
"Thank you, Cousin Joseph."
"Katrina," he says with a serious look, "No matter whether you can find Aaron or not... You must remember to come back! Grandpa is waiting for you at home!"
The concern of family makes Katrina feel infinite warmth in the heart.
She hugs Eric gently and says softly, "Grandpa, don"t worry. I will come back as soon as possible."
Though...
Aaron is her important man.
But her baby, her grandfather, both are important.
She will bring Aaron back as soon as possible so that her family won"t worry about her.
Because she bought the latest flight ticket, their time is very urgent.
After a short goodbye, Joseph himself drives Katrina to the airport.
Seeing her pus.h.i.+ng the luggage with the ticket, through the ticket barrier, queuing to board the plane... Joseph could only send his best wishes silently in his heart.
She and Aaron have experienced a lot.
He really hopes...
They can get happiness.
