Chapter 735 You’re Too Defensive
Kisa took the photo from the album and carefully looked at it. There was a line of words behind the photo. It was the name of her mother and the man. There was also the date of when the photo was taken. ‘Damon Kooper? Isn’t that Gilbert’s father’s name? Is the man in this photo Gilbert’s father?‘
At that moment, Gilbert walked toward her with a bowl in his hands. “If you miss your mom, we can go visit her grave sometime. I mean, she is my mother–in–law after all.”
Kisa did not hear what he had said. Instead, she just
looked back and forth between Gilbert and the man in the photo. “What’s wrong?” he asked. Kisa quickly closed the photo album when Gilbert came over. Seeing this, Gilbert frowned in displeasure. “You’re too defensive. You hide everything from me and treat me like an outsider,” he said.
“Aren’t you an outsider?” Kisa asked indifferently, her hands tightening around the closed photo album. ‘Jensen said that Gilbert would always react weirdly whenever people mentioned his parents. If he sees this photo, he’ll definitely freak out. I should just keep it to myself.‘ Kisa hurriedly put the photo album and diary away. ‘I’ll take a good look at it later in my room,‘ she thought.
Gilbert looked at Kisa’s defensive appearance and felt resentful. “Is that really necessary? If I wanted to have a look, I would have flipped through everything before showing it to you. Why is your guard up so high?”
Kisa hugged the photo album and diary in her hands and said in a low voice. “After you finish your food, go to the room you used to sleep in if you want to stay here and remember to close the door.” Then, Kisa got up and prepared to go back to her room. Suddenly, Gilbert grabbed her arm.
