Chapter 878 Illusions of Happiness

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 eyes.

However, the illusions of happiness in his head were abruptly shattered by the sound of thunder.

He stumbled two steps back and leaned against the wall in anguish.

‘That woman still isn’t home, and her phone is off. She definitely misunderstood me. What should I do? How should I let her believe me again in the future? It’s not possible anymore. Right? She won’t

possibly trust me anymore, right? If the prison guard really did falsely accuse me, she probably won’t believe me even if I died in front of her,’ he thought.

At the thought of the prison guard, Gilbert’s gaze turned icy.

“The rainstorm today is so strange; it’s never–ending. Blake can’t even go outside to play,” Mia sprawled in front of the window and said in low spirits.

Meanwhile, Blake was reading a book on a carpet beside her.

Hearing her words, he could not help but laugh, “Aren’t you the one who wants to go out to play, mama?”

“What’re you talking about? Read your book.”

Mia said while glancing at the man nearby.

He had been staring out the window in a daze ever since he returned.

However, she did not ask much about it.

‘After all, with his personality, it’s not like he’d tell me if I asked. Instead, my question might make him unhappy. Anyway, his temper is getting more and more unpredictable. I should avoid pissing him off if I can. But judging from his vacant expression, it’s definitely because of Kisa again,‘ thought Mia.

While she was in deep thought, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

Mia was startled.

“Who could it be at this hour and weather?” she mumbled.

Then, she got up and went to the door.

“What’re you doing here?”

When she opened the door, she saw a completely drenched Gilbert standing in front of the door.

He had bloodshot eyes and a dark expression; he looked terrifying.

Mia could not help but frown. She stood in front of the door and did not want to let him in.

Gilbert narrowed his eyes. Then, he raised his arm and shoved her aside.

Mia stumbled a few steps back and almost fell down.

Fortunately, she held on to a cabinet beside her.

Just as she wanted to yell at Gilbert, he strode up to Jensen.

“Where’s the prison guard right now? Tell him to see me.”

Jensen gaze at him silently. He did not seem surprised by Gilbert’s sudden visit.

He shook his head and said coolly, “Sorry, I can’t hand over the prison guard without Kisa’s consent.‘

Gilbert took a deep breath.

“What did the prison guard tell Kisa?”

Jensen did not give him a straight answer.

He smiled slightly at him, “Didn’t Kisa go find you? What’s the matter? Did she not tell you what the prison guard said to her?”

Finally, Gilbert could no longer suppress his emotions. He grabbed Jensen by the collar and asked icily, “What the hell did the prison guard say to Kisa?”

“He told Kisa… That you were the mastermind behind the fire.”
