Chapter 877 Broke My Promise Again
After patting around his body for a while, Gilbert still could not find anything.
He frowned deeply and suddenly remembered leaving his phone in the car.
He stood up abruptly and stumbled outside.
The woman’s blood was still stained on the door frame.
The sight of it hurt his eyes and made him feel suffocated, so he did not dare to look
at it.
‘All I hope is that Kisa can understand my actions earlier on and realize that I was merely putting on a show. Otherwise… Otherwise…’ Gilbert did not dare to think further.
He continued striding down the stairs.
Kelvin was leaning against the door while smoking. When he saw Gilbert, he quickly stopped him.
“Gilbert, what you said to Kisa earlier on…
“Where’s she?”
Gilbert asked abruptly in a tense voice.
Kelvin pursed his lips, “She left long ago. I couldn’t stop her.”
Hearing this, Gilbert’s heart instantly sank further.
‘If Kisa had realized that I was putting on a show earlier, she wouldn’t have left without a second thought. At the very least, she would’ve said something to Kelvin,‘ he thought.
“Gilbert…” Kelvin took a puff of his cigarette and continued worriedly, “Kisa must’ve gotten into a car accident just now. The front of her car was dented.”
Gilbert felt his heart clench.
He did not dare to dilly–dally and quickly rushed to the car to find his phone.
His phone was under the car seat.
Gilbert bent down to pick up his phone and spotted the pink–colored cake that had been smashed to pieces.
He felt a twinge in his heart as tears welled up in his
in his eyes.
‘It’s her birthday today. I promised I’d spend her birthday with her, but I broke my promise again,‘ he thought.
Gilbert unlocked his phone. Countless missed calls and unread messages came into view, and they were all from the same woman.
He could tell how badly she wanted to see him at the time.
[Why aren’t you here yet, Gilbert?]
