Chapter 742 Having a Cold War
“You’re always like this. Every time something happens, you always fight tooth and nail to question me like this. Do you give even the slightest respect to me?”
“You said you misunderstood me before and that you’d make it up to me. Heh, is this the ‘making up‘ you were talking about? There’s so much damage and hate between the both of us. We were not meant to be together again.”
“Even though your suspicions about setting up the fire are gone, it doesn’t mean I completely forgive you. The most I can do is not hate you. Truthfully speaking, our marriage had no meaning from the very start. You have no right to pretend to care about me now or to question me here!” Kisa cried and screamed at him. Her heart was filled with grievance and hate.
Gilbert stared at her closely. She wasn’t sure if it was due to him listening to it and feeling guilty in his heart or something else, but the arm holding her down slowly let go of her. After being released, Kisa immediately slid down along the icy cold wall.
She sat on the floor flustered and cried while holding onto her knees without care. She honestly did not know what she had done to offend this man. This man always fought tooth and nail with her. His so–called gentleness and care were according to his whims, and his attitude toward her was just based on his mood. If his mood was good, he would treat her with all smiles, gentleness, and care. If his mood was bad, he would ruthlessly try to cause her demise.
As she thought about it, a wave of grief and sorrow overwhelmed her heart.
‘What am I to Gilbert in his heart?‘ she wondered.
She was afraid that she was nothing more than a pet to him. She was stricken with grief and felt wronged, but what she did not realize was that the mood of the man beside her was based on her own attitude toward him.
Gilbert lowered his gaze to stare at her for a while. Then, he bent down his figure to sit beside her. He looked at the shadows cast by the streetlights and did not speak for some time. The woman beside him continued to cry. He wanted to comfort her but did not know how to, so he just sat quietly beside her.
