Nanny For Young Master's
Genius 41 - Don't take him…

"I'm really sorry, Lynn. because I've let you down."

"You don't have to apologize. Because I know, from the beginning you never intended to keep your promise, right?" The woman clenched her hands. He tried hard to resist the tightness that approached his chest.

"W-what? How can you think like that?"

"You've been too busy with yourself, you've made Carver live a lonely life without ever knowing his own parents for two years. You abandoned her, and you never met her once…"

"…Isn't that clear? Then when you met your son for the first time, you tried to kill him instead…"

"…I don't think you've really changed."

"No! You're wrong!" said Karl, cutting the sentence.

"Now I think I misplaced it on you."

"No. Don't ever think like that, however. Carver is my son too!"

"But you don't treat like your son!"

"You don't understand, Lynn.." Karl stepped over to the woman. "I've been tormented all this time. I can't live without you, and every time I see Carver, I'm always thinking of you. It really hurts…"

"…Do you know how broken I was when I lost you? I lost half my soul! I'm almost crazy, and I really can't stand what's going on." Karl stopped right in front of the woman.

Lynn fell silent, clashing with Karl who showed the same expression but with different feelings with him.

Karl gripped both of Lynn's shoulders. Her irises looked at the woman with sadness mixed with guilt.

"b-changed?…"

"…Yes, I have changed. And all because of you…"

"…I became like this because of you. Because I lost you, I'm like this." Karl tightened his grip. His head was bowed with tears that increasingly drenched both cheeks.

"If only you hadn't left.if you had stayed by my side as you had said in our wedding vows. I couldn't have been tormented like this…"

"You swore to love me in my life and death. But what are you doing? You tried to forget me, and even tried to kill your own son. Looks like it's better, I'm taking Carver with me." Lynn took Karl's grip off. The man looked up with a surprised expression upon hearing his words.

"No! Don't take him."

"Isn't that what you wanted from the beginning?" Lynn turned her body, preparing to step away from there.

"No. I never wanted to part with Carver! Don't take her with you. He's the only one I have.." Karl tried to hold Lynn back, but tears had completely blocked his sight, making Karl fall just before he managed to grab Lynn's hand.

"I can't trust you anymore, Shawn."

"Please don't take her with you! He is the single most precious treasure of my life. So I beg you, don't take him, Lynn. If you take him, then I won't be able to live!"
