Chapter 693 Back to the Days When We First Got Married

just

Kisa was so tense that she dared not to move, but after Gilbert leaned over, he did not make another move, leaning against her. After a long while, she gradually eased up when he stayed lying just like that, and his breathing became shallow. She felt his body like a ball of fire, scorching her skin as his chest pressed against her back.

When she first came in, she still felt a little cold because the heating in the room was not on a higher setting. But now, she was feeling hot. She could not help but move closer to the edge of the bed. If she went further out, she would fall down the bed. It did not help that Gilbert followed her and moved closer to her as soon as she moved away.

Kisa had no words. She suspected he was pretending to be asleep. The air was still, and the only sound echoing in the room was the sound of breathing. She stared at the faint glow shining through the curtains for a while and gradually dozed off. When she was about to fall asleep, Gilbert suddenly muttered something.

“If those two jailers can prove that I had nothing to do

with the prison fire, can you and I go back to the old days, back to the way it was when we were first married?”

Kisa instantly became awake. She slowly opened her eyes and saw the same dark curtains. She was thinking about what Gilbert had just said.

‘Back to the way it was when we were first married? But were they happy when they were first married? No, not at all. When we were first married, I tried all I could to please him, catered to his every preference, and waited for him to come home no matter how late it was. But how

did he treat me? Other than hatred and being fed up with

me, there was only humiliation. I will never want to go back to those heartbreaking and painful days.‘
