Chapter 1333 His Tenderness and Protection Are Hers
His phone was on the bedside table, but half of it was hanging off the edge, so it fell as soon as Kisa’s hand brushed past it. The phone fell on the carpet with a sudden thud. Her heart skipped a beat, and she tensed up, afraid of waking Gilbert up. He had always been alert, but this time, there was no reaction from him. He was still sleeping soundly. It seemed to her that he really was tired.
She bent down to pick up the phone. As she was doing so, her fingers instinctively touched the power button on the side of the phone and the phone screen lit up. She was not really looking at first, but a photo caught her eyes. It startled her for a second before she pressed the side button again.
As the phone screen lit up again, the photo came into view. It was a picture of her and Gilbert with her nestling in Gilbert’s arms, sleeping soundly, while he was resting his chin on the top of her head, smiling. It was a beautiful picture. Even if it was just a photo, she could see the smile and sparkle in his eyes.
‘When this picture was taken, he must have been very happy. It looked like he took the picture last night while I was sleeping,’ she thought to herself.
Kisa could not help but look at the man on the bed and feel touched. ‘So what if Sara occupies the first spot in his heart? What matters is that I’m the one by his side now. His tenderness and protection are now mine.’ With these thoughts in mind, she felt much happier and was not as cynical as before.
It was a pleasant moment to sit in the courtyard in the cool morning breeze under the warm sun. Felicity had gone to the shops with Davian to take care of some business and Gilbert was sleeping, so Kisa and the maids were the only ones downstairs.
She had cooked herself a plate of spaghetti. As she was sitting outside in the courtyard under a tree, eating happily, a teasing voice suddenly came.
“Yo, it looks like you have a good appetite. Aren’t you afraid of gaining weight?”
‘Kelvin?’ Kisa looked over her shoulder and saw Kelvin walk in with his hands in his pockets and a frivolous smile on his face. She glanced past him and saw no one behind him.
“You came alone? How did you know about this place?”
“It is not like Gilbert hasn’t brought me here before.” Kelvin came in and helped himself sit down across from her. He saw her plate of appetizing spaghetti and asked, “Do you have any more?”
