Kisa rushed into the elevator, her weakened body nearly causing her to stumble.Kelvin swiftly followed, catching her just in time.

"When was the last time you ate? You can hardly stand!"

Kisa leaned against the elevator wall for support, her silence unwavering.

Observing her icy demeanor, Kelvin chuckled nervously and refrained from making any further jokes.He trailed her into the apartment, his eyes glued to her fragile figure, suddenly unsure of what to say.He had come to escape the tension downstairs and to warn this woman against hurting Gilbert's heart anymore.

But confronted by her cold and distant attitude, he could not muster any harsh words.

Especially when his gaze fell on her flat stomach, he was overwhelmed with pity for her.

'The baby was so close to being born — it's heartbreaking" he thought.

Upon entering, Kisa immediately sought refuge in her room, but Kelvin stubbornly blocked the door, preventing her from closing it.

"Kisa, what's with the sudden silence?"

It was true; since losing the baby, she had seemed like an entirely different person.Kisa slowly met his gaze, her voice devoid of emotion as she asked, "What do you want me to say?"

"No, I just thought we could chat for a while."

"Has Gracie given birth?"

Kelvin was caught off guard; she had immediately started chatting with him.

Thinking of Gracie and the baby, his eyes instantly softened.

"Yeah, she had a girl.Gilbert and I have already arranged a betrothal between our kids.We will see if it is Andrew or Blake in the end—"

"The baby's only a few months old, right? Shouldn't you be going back to help Gracie take care of the child?" Kisa interjected, her face remaining expressionless.

Kelvin's expression shifted to one of dismay as he lamented.

"I would absolutely love to care for our baby — she's irresistibly adorable and soft - but Gracie is fiercely protective of our little girl and won't even let me lay a finger on her.She says I've been spending too much time with Sara and doubts my devotion.Can you imagine? I'm only treating Sara because Gilbert asked me to, and if it weren't for the fact that she saved Gilbert, I wouldn't even bother with her.Wouldn't it be wonderful to be constantly surrounded by my wife and child?"

His eyes gleamed at the thought of Gracie and their baby.

‘Their child is born into a world of happiness — how truly fortunate.Unlike my own unborn, pitiful baby"

Kisa's eyes darkened, and she turned away to sit in a wicker chair by the window, her silence engulfing her once more.Kelvin followed her, his gaze filled with puzzlement.

"what's bothering you now?" Kisa remained quiet.

Losing patience, Kelvin put on a stern face and said, "I came up here to warn you not to wound Gilbert's heart any further.

The fact that he's willing to overlook the deaths of his parents and grandmother for you is a testament to the depth of his love for you.

Kisa's eyes met his, devoid of emotion.

"So, his heart must be tormented as well, particularly when he reflects on his parents' tragic deaths."

Furrowing his brow, Kelvin replied, ''No, that's not what I was trying to say—"

"I'm tormented too.When I face him, a relentless voice inside me accuses me of being a sinner — an unforgivable sinner."

Her eyes, which had momentarily regained some of their sparkle, gradually became lifeless once more.Growing increasingly uneasy, Kelvin felt as though he had unintentionally sabotaged Gilbert's happiness.He hurriedly changed the subject.

"Would you believe me even if I told you?"

Kisa asked, her face still devoid of expression.

Kelvin chuckled nervously, realizing their conversation had reached an impasse.

Just then, the sound of urgent footsteps echoed from outside.
