Chapter 920 Like a Dead Man
Davian spoke indignantly before realizing that he had talked inappropriately. He glanced at Gilbert, only to see Gilbert staring blankly at the ceiling with no expression on his face. Davian was relieved. He thought his speaking out of turn had upset Gilbert.
“Mr. Kooper, you…”
“Leave me alone.” Gilbert suddenly said with little emotion in his voice. He sounded rather calm and somewhat eerie.
Davian asked worriedly, “Are you all right, Mr. Kooper?”
“Get out and leave me alone.”
Davian pursed his lips and headed outside.
After Davian left, Gilbert closed his eyes, and tears instantly trickled down from the corners of his eyes. ‘All she has left of me now is disgust and hatred and even a wish for
my death. Now that the warden is dead and Jensen is in a coma, how else can I explain to her?’ The sense of powerlessness left him with a deep sense of despair. It was a feeling that was worse than dying. How he wished he was the one, not Jensen, lying unconscious in the hospital now.
“Jensen!” Kisa was jolted out of her nightmare. She looked around anxiously, only to see four white walls surrounding her. The air smelled of disinfectant. She realized this was a hospital and wondered what Jensen’s condition was now. Kisa had dreamed of Jensen falling in front of her, covered in blood, and no matter how loud she called out, he did not respond. In the dream, she was terrified, desperately wanting to wake up, as Jensen might be fine if she woke up. But she found that she still had to face the cruel reality after she had woken up.
