"What do you want to hear from me?"He chuckled and asked Kisa, sounding very sarcastic.Kisa's body was stiff as she stood upright.She looked at Gilbert without saying anything. She curled her fingers tightly, and there was blood dripping slowly from her clenched fists.Gilbert swept his gaze across her before he looked back at the cigarette between his fingers.He breathed out a swirl of smoke before saying unconcernedly, "I can say whatever you want to hear. Including... the world's sweetest love talk and sweet nothings."His deep voice still sounded very pleasant, but his tone was filled with sarcasm and mockery.Kira's heart hurt so much, that she struggled to breathe. However, she started laughing."So, have you been faking all this while when you said all those sweet words to me?""Heh, heh!" Gilbert chuckled scornfully. "You're an actress. How could you not tell what's real and what's not?"Kisa tried her very best to smile. There were tears in her eyes, but she kept
There would be drops of blood dripping down the floor from her fists with every step she took.Gilbert gazed at her skinny back deeply, looking like he was restraining himself from doing something.When Kisa walked closer to the door, her body shook, and she fell to the floor right in front the door frame, as if her body had shut itself down.She seemed to be in a lot of pain as she lay there without moving at all.Gilbert shifted his gaze away from him and said to George flatly, "Would you help Ms. Becker up? Don't let her pass out here. Otherwise, Jensen is going to stir things up again."Kisa chuckled creepily. Then, she gritted her teeth, got up, and continued walking.Kelvin could not bear to look at that anymore.Then, he said to Gilbert, "I'll check on her."Kelvin ran after Kisa after he said that.The room was finally quiet again.Gilbert turned around and sat beside Madalyn. After looking at how the food was left untouched on the bedstand, he could not help but ask
After patting around his body for a while, Gilbert still could not find anything.He frowned deeply and suddenly remembered leaving his phone in the car.He stood up abruptly and stumbled outside.The woman's blood was still stained on the door frame.The sight of it hurt his eyes and made him feel suffocated, so he did not dare to look at it.'All I hope is that Kisa can understand my actions earlier on and realize that I was merely putting on a show. Otherwise... Otherwise...' Gilbert did not dare to think further.He continued striding down the stairs.Kelvin was leaning against the door while smoking. When he saw Gilbert, he quickly stopped him."Gilbert, what you said to Kisa earlier on...""Where's she?"Gilbert asked abruptly in a tense voice.Kelvin pursed his lips, "She left long ago. I couldn't stop her."Hearing this, Gilbert's heart instantly sank further.'If Kisa had realized that I was putting on a show earlier, she wouldn't have left without a second though
Gilbert did not see Kisa on the road, so he immediately went to her place.The moment he opened the door, the dead silence in the house made him panic.He quickly walked and checked every room before even changing out of his shoes.Every room was empty, even the kitchen and toilet.'She didn't come home. But it's pouring outside, so where else would she go? There are various exquisite-looking dishes on the table. It's a birthday today, so I can tell she put a lot of effort into preparing this meal. Some of the dishes are food that she likes, and there's also food that I like,' thought Gilbert.He quietly stared at the untouched dishes on the table and felt tears well up in his eyes.'If only these accidents didn't happen. Right now, I should be spending her birthday with her in this cozy house. I'd be telling her surprises and seeing the happy expression,' he thought.It was almost as if Gilbert could see the warm and cozy scenarios he had pictured in his head in front of his ey
Gilbert froze as the color immediately drained from his face.He shook his head, "No. It wasn't me.""Nobody knows the entire truth behind the fire that happened. However, the prison guard did tell her that you're the mastermind behind the fire. Kisa obviously didn't believe him, so she went to look for you, didn't she?" Jensen said indifferently.His cool, calm gaze met with Gilbert's dark, bloodshot eyes.Then, Jensen continued slowly, "She said... Unless you admitted it yourself, she'd never believe it."Gilbert paled further.Suddenly, his tall, muscular frame seemed frail, and he was about to topple over.'Unless you admit it yourself, otherwise she'd never believe it. But I said yes when she asked me the question just now. I didn't do it on purpose. I didn't admit it on purpose. If I had known that this would happen, I would never have said so. What do I do now?' Gilbert thought.The man that was always calm and arrogant now had a pale and panicked expression.Jensen gla
Gilbert froze.Then, a pair of small hands hugged Gilbert by the waist.Blake stood in front of him and said in a childlike voice that brimmed with panic, "Don't hit my papa."Gilbert's fist froze mid-air.He stared at Blake intensely, "You... What did you call me just now?"Mia ran over hurriedly and pulled Blake toward her. Then, she said in a panic, "Do you know how dangerous that was? Uncle Gilbert is angry, so don't get close to him."Blake clenched his little fist and said to Gilbert, "Uncle Gilbert, don't hit my papa."'Uncle Gilbert? Papa? Well, Jensen is Blake's papa, so it's not surprising for him to call Jensen daddy when he panicked. For a moment, I thought Blake was my child,' thought Gilbert.He suppressed the annoying thoughts in his head and asked Jensen icily, "So you're saying you won't hand over the prison guard no matter what?""I told you I won't hand him over unless Kisa agrees."Gilbert sneered and nodded."Alright. Good!" his voice brimmed with disapp
"Stop it, Blake. Your papa didn't frame your daddy," Mia quickly stopped Blake.Blake pursed his lips and mumbled, "But I heard the conversation between papa and daddy."Mia was about to continue speaking.However, Jensen suddenly motioned her to stop.He pulled Blake to his lap and looked at him with a tender gaze."What would you do if I really framed daddy?""Then I'll hate you. I won't like you.""Blake..." Mia panicked.'What's Jensen doing? He's being forced by Adrien to do all this, yet he's admitting it's his doing. Does he want others to misunderstand him?' she thought.Jensen patted Blake's head.Then, he smiled and mumbled, "If only you were my real son."Mia threw him a resentful glare.'I could totally give him a son if he wants one. But this man only wants Kisa's son,' she thought.She pulled Blake over and said earnestly, "The truth is, your papa didn't frame your daddy. It's really complicated, but all of us, especially you, would be in danger if your papa
Suddenly, Kisa heard anxious, intermittent cries amidst the sound of rain. They did not sound real, instead sounding like a hallucination. She closed her eyes and plunged herself into endless darkness."Kisa... Kisa... Kisa..."The screams got closer and louder. She opened her eyes slightly, looking at the dark sky above.'It's not a dream. He's here to look for me. But what for? Is he trying to continue deceiving me with flattering words? Luring me into deep waters with tenderness and consideration? And then using me to deal with Jensen? What an evil plan. To hurt someone, you must first break their heart.'"Where are you, Kisa? Can you please come out already? Wherever you are, please come out. Kisa..."The man's voice pierced through the sound of rain.Kisa suddenly sneered when she listened to how anxious the voice sounded. 'He's so anxious. Is he worried that something would happen to me, or is he eager to explain everything?''I would really like to know what kind of expla
