Chapter 783 A Wake-Up Slap To The Face
Kisa tensed up and immediately pulled her hand away. !! Let me go! Let me go!”
From her reaction, it looked like the woman was still resistant to him touching her.
He suddenly recalled what Mrs. Kooper Sr. said, and his eyes immediately dimmed.
He then let her go and turned to the window, his voice cold and distant. “Go then.”
Kisa bit her lips and could not help but ask, “Are… your wounds alright?”
“I won’t die.”
The man’s voice was cold, and so was his face.
Kisa did not know what to say.
She then looked down and said, “Rest well then.”
As she said that, she glanced at him and turned to leave.
This time, Gilbert did not hold onto her.
The man did not even make a single sound when she closed the door and left.
After closing the door, Kisa stood outside for a moment before turning around and walking downstairs.
It was Kelvin who called her, not Gilbert.
Last night, it was all because of her selfishness and resentment that she almost got him killed.
So, the man should be quite angry at her at this moment.
It seemed like she really should not have come here. Walking down the stairs dejectedly, she ran into Kelvin and Gracie.
Kelvin looked at her expression and asked in surprise, Why are you back down here? Do you need anything? Just give us a call, and we can send it up.”
Kisa shook her head and said, “Take good care of him. I’ll be heading back first.”
“What? You’re going back?!” Kelvin’s temper suddenly flared. “Do you even have a shred of conscience in you? It’s because of you he’s wounded. Just ask yourself, how many times has he been wounded because of you? It took me so much effort to get him to stay here so that you can take care of him, and you’re now telling me you’re going back moments after you’d just arrived?!”
Kelvin was so pissed off that he literally roared at Kisa.
Gracie nodded. “It’s true, he only woke up this afternoon, and he was muttering your name the whole morning.”
When Kisa heard that, her heart trembled.
She sobbed, “But he did not seem to be in a good mood just now, and…”
“I know what’s going on now,” Before she could finish, Kelvin interjected as he realized something. “It must’ve been his grandmother’s words.”
Kisa looked at him in confusion, “What did she say to him?”
“When Kelvin woke up, Mrs. Kooper Sr. was there, and she told him that you didn’t care about him, that you were hugging Jensen while you were in the ER. Gilbert was in a foul mood the whole day after hearing that and had not eaten yet. That’s why I called you to hurry over.”
As Kelvin said that, Gracie said to Kisa with a serious look, “Kisa, have you ever considered that it’s perhaps not that Gilbert didn’t want to see you, but he thought that you didn’t want to see him as he thinks that the one you love is Jensen?”
What Gracie said was like a wake–up slap to her face.
Kisa did not think much more as she turned around and
ran upstairs.
