Chapter 409 The One She Accepts Is He, Gilbert Kooper
Gilbert acquiesced. He put the medicine away and then sat quietly beside her.
Kisa did not say anything. She only gave him a glance before closing her eyes.
After ten plus minutes, Gilbert gave the wounds on a leg a careful inspection. After seeing that the medicine had already dried, he put the quilt over her leg.
However, when he did that, the woman did not react all.
‘Has she fallen asleep?‘
As he thought of that, he came before her and called out to her.
She did not respond.
He could not help but to chuckle a little.
‘You’re so exhausted and yet you said you don’t want to sleep.‘
But what he did not know was, the reason she could sleep so soundly was because he was by her side.
He gently held her body and laid her down.
After putting the quilt over here, he stood up and wanted to go to the sofa to sleep. But just as he got up, the woman grabbed his hand.
She looked at him with misty eyes, her hoarse voice sorrowful and helpless.
“Don’t go…”
Gilbert looked at her dazed eyes and could no longer suppress the feelings in his heart. He suddenly leaned over and kissed her on the lips, his tali body instantly covering hers. He kissed her in a frenzy, his hand even slipped into her clothes. But the moment his fingers touched her burning hot body, his senses finally reined in his impulse.
‘What am I doing? She’s still sick, how can I do this to her?‘
He lifted himself off her, his dark eyes staring at the woman under him.
‘She did not refuse me just now.‘
He pursed his lips and cautiously asked, “Can you tell who I am?”
Kisa looked at him in a daze, her chest heaving violently.
After a good while, she smoke, her voice dazed and confused, “You’re… Gilbert.”
When he heard her saying his name, Gilbert felt a surge of joy that he could not put to words.
Regardless of the fact that she did not refuse him because she was sick and slightly delirious, but that moment, she was willing to accept him.
When he thought of that, his heart was a mess.
He looked down and kissed her forehead, his voice hoarse. “Sleep tight. I’ll be right beside you.”
