Chapter 637 He Was Holding Back
The scenes from Kisa’s nightmare emerged from her mind once again. Kisa pushed Sharon away and hurried up the stairs. Sharon threw insults at her, chasing after her when Lea rushed to hold Sharon back, “Kisa, hurry up!*
When Kisa and Jensen were right at the corner of the stairs, they saw Madalyn. “How’s Gilbert?” Kisa asked softly. Madalyn suddenly raised her hand, and Kisa flinched and closed her eyes.
A slap was heard, but Kisa did not feel the pain. She opened her eyes in surprise and saw Jensen tilting his head, a slap mark visible on his face. She was startled and quickly grabbed Jensen’s arm and shrieked at Madalyn, “Why did you hit him?”
Jensen tightened his hands, his jawline sharp and cold but remained emotionless. Madalyn had gotten older, her finger full of wrinkles, pointed at Jensen, and howled in despair,” You’re such a phony person. You’re rotten to the core, as I expected. You should have never come back here.”
“What are you talking about, Mrs. Kooper Sr.?” Kisa was dumbfounded and worriedly eyed Jensen. ‘Why would Madalyn condemn him out of nowhere? Just as Kisa was thinking, Madalyn, bawled out in sorrow to Jensen, “Bring back my grandson’s life, bring my grandson back to me….'”
Kisa was thunderstruck and asked in a tense voice, “What happened to Gilbert?” “What does “bring my grandson back to me” mean? She sounded as if Gilbert was gone. No, stop! Stop being paranoid.‘
Kisa clutched onto Jensen’s arm to ensure she could stand upright. Her eyes fixed on Madalyn, but Madalyn was sobbing while covering her mouth. Jensen’s jaw muscles twitched as if he was suppressing his emotions. He laughed at Madalyn, “How am I a phony?”
His cold and gloomy laugh took Kisa by surprise. Madalyn stared at him with red eyes, “I thought you treasured brotherhood as you were always so protective of Gilbert. It turns out you’re just like your father. You loved and helped each other on the outside, but on the inside, you were praying for his death.”
Kisa went speechless from the shock. She felt there must be some misunderstandings, but she did not know how to ask. Jensen remained silent. His eyes fixated on Madalyn. Madalyn cried at Jensen in despair and disappointment with a hateful look on her face. “I was really touched that day when you braved the storm and went out looking for Gilbert. I felt guilty for days, thinking I’ll treat you better once you return and that I’ll make up for all these years I’ve owed you. I even prayed for your safety and was more concerned about you than Gilbert. But it turned out that you never searched for him. It was all but a sick scheme.
“Jensen, don’t fake it if you can’t treat Gilbert as your brother. You’re rotten to the core. You can’t be better, and you’re incorrigible. You’re just a wolf in sheep’s clothing. You are ungrateful and greedy. Y– You! Just get lost!”
Jensen quietly listened to Madalyn’s storm of abuse without refuting her. Kisa grabbed his arms and felt how tense he was from holding back his emotions. Kisa could not stand it and questioned Madalyn, “What happened? Jensen isn’t that kind of person.”
