Chapter 1405 I Will Not Care About You Anymore
“It’s okay. You can kill me whenever you get the chance. I’m tired of you being loving one second and not the other. I don’t want to fight for us anymore.”
Kisa frowned as she looked at the man. ‘What does he mean by that? Was he actually hurt by what I said that day? Does he no longer want this relationship with me?’
Suddenly, Gilbert stretched out his hand and stroked her belly with his slender fingers for a while.” However, I’ll still have you by my side for the sake of this child,” he said.
“You can go wherever you like when the child is born. I won’t care about you anymore. Even if you face something as tragic as what just happened, you’ll be on your own.”
Kisa blankly stared at the hand that was lingering on her stomach. Subconsciously, she reached out to grab it, but the man withdrew his touch. Kisa’s hand stopped in mid-air, empty and lonely.
She wanted to explain everything to Gilbert, but if Adrien and his evil plans were still in action, they would never be able to live in peace. She also needed to solve the problem regarding Sara.
‘Would he even believe me if I told him that Sara was hiding in the basement of the Mullen residence? Would he believe me if I said she wanted to take my life?’
There were just too many people and things that kept coming in between Kisa and Gilbert. The trust between them was just not enough.
‘Even if we do get back together for a short period of time, how long are we going to last?”
‘I want us and our child to live together safely for the rest of our lives, not this brief little reunion.
Sara could really shatter this dream if she wanted to. I’ve got to solve this mystery, or we’ll never be able to truly be together,’ thought Kisa.
‘As for Adrien… It would be best if Gilbert knew nothing about it so that our play would seem realistic, and Adrien won’t suspect a thing. To hell with him misunderstanding me. I mean, the truth will reveal itself one day, right?’
Kisa gazed at the man’s cold profile, and her vision blurred. She wiped the tears away and said in a
low voice, “I want to see Kelvin. I’m the one who got him into this mess.”
Gilbert stood up, put his hands in his pockets, and said expressionlessly, “Kelvin is fine. Take care of yourself first.”
He then strode out after saying that. Kisa breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Kelvin was fine. She looked at the empty doorway in a daze, feeling extremely sad but unable to cry.
Gilbert had a private villa in Athadale. Kisa stayed there to recuperate and did not bother Felicity. Kelvin visited several times during her half a month of recovery. Kisa learned that the Mullen family had undergone a revolutionizing change through Kelvin’s word of mouth.
The collapse of the Mullen residence basement was deemed an accident. Initially, the police wanted to investigate, but Mrs. Mullen Sr. did not want them to, so they stopped.
‘Maybe she knew his husband had another woman in there,’ Kisa thought to herself.
‘Since the “accident” was caused by the other woman, Mrs. Mullen Sr. might have rejected the investigation because she wanted to save the old man’s last bit of dignity.”
Albert and Anthony were the ones to take charge of all the affairs after Mr. Mullen Sr.’s death while the other sons only cared about the family property. The old lady was getting too old to care for her family affairs, so she just went to the Mullen family’s ancestral hall and prayed every day. While the sons were fighting against each other, to their surprise, Mr. Mullen Sr. had already drawn up the will.
Everyone in the family was dumbfounded when the lawyer finished reading the will in front of them. They even suspected that it was fake.
