Chapter 667 You Taught That Thing To Curse Me?
“Pig–brained! Pig–brained!”
‘Pig–brained?‘
Gilbert’s expression immediately darkened as he narrowed his eyes, his gaze instantly cast at the direction of the voice.
He then saw a woman trying to stuff a rag into a parrot’s mouth. The parrot screamed and shouted happily as it dodged about.
Gilbert snorted, “And here I was wondering why were you so kind as to invite me to pass Christmas Eve with me. It turned out you taught that thing to curse me, huh?”
“No, I didn’t teach it that!” Kisa tried to explain. Oh, how she wished she had turned that parrot into a roasted fowl.
Gilbert clearly did not buy that and said mockingly, “Bah, you dared to teach it how to curse at someone, but you dare not admit the deed.”
Kisa was speechless.
She gave up trying to explain. The parrot was right. Gilbert was pig–brained.
The three kids had already started playing the moment they stepped into the house.
When Gilbert got into the house, he realized that the place was a little deserted.
He looked around the house and somewhat awkwardly asked, “It’s just you at home?”
“What? Is Blake not a person now?!” Kisa retorted as she went to the dining table and away from him.
For some reason, seeing this man after so long made her feel a little awkward.
Particularly, the scene of them both being trapped in the cave was still fresh in her mind, and the more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt.
Gilbert circled around the house and confirmed that Jensen was not around.
He could not help but ask her, “Where’s he?”
‘Didn’t she say she would spend Christmas Eve with Jensen and Mia?‘ ‘Why are she and Blake the only ones in the house then?‘
‘Could it be that she wants to spend Christmas Eve alone with me? So that’s why she sent Jensen and Mia away first?‘
Just as he was thinking about that, he heard the woman say flatly, “Jensen went back to Raworth. He said something about some work to be done. He’ll be back after the New Year.”
“…Oh.”
