goodbye my sweetheart

The seedling was finally found by Klaus. This time, he completely wiped out the hidden danger tree.

Klaus took Caroline back to the town.

Caroline brought an apology gift, and Stefan was the first to visit.

She will never forget that Stefan was her mentor and friend.When she first became a vampire, Damon, who was her lover, did not hesitate to propose that she should be killed, but Stefan did not, his decision made her live, he was with her, he guided her, he let her return right way.Sometimes, she even felt that Stefan treated her better than Elena.

But at this moment...

Stefan looked coldly at the gift box on the coffee table, bent down, and touched the beautiful ribbon tied on the gift box with his fingers, "Caroline... I can't believe that three years ago, you betrayed us for Klaus .And now, you still have the face to come to see us with a gift."

Damon half-lyed on the couch, stretched, and sneered, "Who needs Hybirds now? Our Barbie is worth one hundred, and she's more loyal than Hybird—to Klaus!"

Stefan had a heartbroken face. He looked at Caroline, who was rubbing her hands together nervously, and suddenly couldn't bear it. He stopped Damon's sarcasm, and asked, "Caroline, tell me, it's not true. Did you drink verbena?" , was hypnotized by Klaus?"

"Stefan, wake up! She loves him! Can't you see that?" Damon cast an angry look at his innocent, self-talking brother.

"You? Caroline, love Klaus? There are thousands of good men in the world, and you chose this one—" Stefan said every word.

Caroline, who had lowered her head timidly and kept silent, raised her head and bravely looked into Stefan's worried eyes, "Yes, Stefan. I love him."

"Why?" Stefan was devastated, he looked at her sadly, "Why Klaus? You know he's—"

"Klaus is a murderer, a sadist, a schemer...I know it all, but I just love him—" Caroline said, "and I'm not ashamed of it."

Stefan looked at Caroline in front of him, her bright eyes, determined expression, and flying spirit all told him: she fell in love with Klaus from the bottom of her heart, rather than being hypnotized by him.

Hypnotized...love, Stefan thought of himself and Katherine.

No, he shook his head, not this time, the mourning for Katherine should stop.

Stefan stared at Caroline for a long time, and there was a trace of complicated feelings in his heart. He envied Caroline's frankness, her frankness to himself.

Caroline looked at Stefan with a hurt expression on her face, and thought of Stefan's care for her, and thought that she must have let him down. She thought of her life, she was always disappointing, she let her parents down, she let Taylor down She had failed Elena, she had failed Bonnie, and now she had failed Stefan, and Caroline's emotions suddenly collapsed at the thought.

Caroline cried, "Stefan, believe me, it's not easy. I struggled too, but all the struggles made me love him more. My heart, it's not like my own. My heart loves him so much. , as long as I am around him, I feel happy, my heart, my mind is full of Klaus, I can't help myself not to love him, there is no way at all! Please forgive me! Stefan, you have always treated me It's all so good, when I was most helpless, you were by my side to encourage me and give me advice. You didn't give up on me before, please forgive me this time, I don't expect you to understand me, but please forgive me, Okay?... Please, I really don't want to lose you as a friend. We are still good friends, okay?"

Stefan fell down on the sofa, what Caroline said was like a knife drawn out of its sheath, the sharp blade sliced ​​through the depths of Stefan's soul, a series of thunderstorms arose wherever the blade touched, under the lightning and thunder, Stefan saw himself Flickering face.

Caroline, I get it.

She wasn't ashamed of loving Klaus.

Damon wasn't ashamed of loving Katherine either.

Why was he ashamed of having loved Katherine?

Damon glanced at the petrified Stefan, he sighed, helped up Caroline, who was lying on the table, her face faded from crying, and said softly, "Go back, Barbie, believe me, Stefan not only understands you, he envies you. Now, he Need to be alone for a while."

"Ah? Damon, what do you mean?" Caroline was pushed out of the door by Damon, and looked at Damon who was about to close the door.

"Silly girl, to be honest, even I envy your courage." Damon's tone was surprisingly gentle, and he sighed, "If Stefan had one percent of your courage to face your own heart, he wouldn't Such pain. You go back first, Stefan, he will always be your good friend, and you will always be welcome at the Salvatore family."

"..." Caroline was crying dizzily, and hearing this made her feel even more mixed. She wanted to ask what Stefan's pain was.But when she saw Klaus leaning on the car door and waiting for her intently, she forgot everything else, and only Klaus remained in her whole world.

She had only been out of his sight for more than 30 minutes, but when he saw her again, he was so happy.

and moved.

Although Klaus waited outside and did not enter Salvatore's house, with his ability as the ancestor of vampires, he had already absorbed all their conversations into his ears.

Caroline loved him, of course he knew it;

Once, Caroline struggled in love with him, and he saw it;

However, even if he knew she loved him, he was still willing to hear her repeatedly confirm her love for him.

Stefan chased after him, nodded to Klaus, and said blankly, "Klaus, I want to inquire about something..."

Klaus watched Stefan calmly, waiting for him to finish.Because of his love for Caroline, he forgives Stefan everything, even if he stole those coffins.

Katherine, this simple name seemed so important that Stefan couldn't get it out of his mouth.

Damon sighed, looked at his sad-faced younger brother, and chased after him.Ask straight to the point, "Where is Katherine?"

"Kol let her go." Klaus clearly remembered that Kol had promised to let her go after "having enough fun", and he didn't think it was necessary for Kol to lie, "Why? She didn't come to you?"

Klaus looked at the disheartened Stefan, and offered to be kind, "If she stole something from you again, I think I can help get it back—"

"Oh, that's unnecessary," Damon forced a smile, "Let her go."

Stefan's heart.

Stefan didn't know how he got back to the house.

After Katherine was free, she didn't come to them.

Didn't even come to settle accounts with them.

In the past three years and eight months, he didn't dare to leave the small town for a single step. His heart was always waiting for her to come looking for her, even if it was for revenge.

She should have revenge, shouldn't she.

If she used all kinds of tricks to get back at him, he would accept it.

If she drives a stake into his heart, he accepts.

If she wants to kill him, he accepts.

Start with her, end with her.As it should be.

He was even willing to die at her hands.

But she didn't do anything and just disappeared, which was the most intolerable for him.

She stole his heart and just ran away.

■36■

The little white oak tree was destroyed, and the original family reunited in Mystic Falls.

Klaus, Kol, Finn, and Elijah sit by the fire.

Vampires are not afraid of the cold, but Klaus likes the atmosphere of sitting around the fire.

He looked at the burning wood in the fireplace and said suddenly, "I want to marry Caroline. Of course, I have to wait until she is a little older."

"Very good." Everyone had a good opinion of Caroline who saved their lives.

"I'm looking forward to it, I must look very handsome in the best man outfit," Kol said narcissistically.

Elijah said, "That's great, Klaus, when the time comes, I'll arrange everything you need for your wedding."

Looking at his brother who was loyal to him all his life but lonely all his life, Klaus' heart suddenly ached. He looked at him, "What about you? Elijah?"

"Me?" Elijah was a little confused by his sudden question.

Kol laughed, to Finn and
