    Chapter 1433 Helping Absolve Him of me


    His forehead creased with worry lines. She could not sleep, and neither could he. Sometimes, he felt


    like keeping this woman around was nothing but torture. But he could not bring himself to let her go, he


    could not bear to see her leave.


    The next day, the snow stopped, but the ground was left wet and slushy. Kisa was a little disappointed.


    As she descended the stairs, she was surprised to find Gilbert still at home. Her disappointment


    vanished instantly. Limping over to the table, she smiled at him and asked, “You just got home?”


    “Mm,” Gilbert replied indifferently, his eyes never leaving the newspaper.


    The servant soon brought a nutritious breakfast, along with a bowl of bone broth. The soup smelled


    terrible, but Kisa obediently drank it to please her man. Just as she finished, Gilbert put down the paper


    and said emotionlessly, “Don’t go out these days. Behave yourself. I will take you to Oceanville.”


    The resentful look in Christopher’s eyesst night and the car that disappeared into the night I made


    him feel cautious. After all, even a rabbit will bite when cornered.


    Kisa nodded obediently and smiled at him in a pleasing way, “Don’t worry, I’ll be good.”


    Gilbert turned his head away and did not want to look at her fake smile. But what he did not know was


    that it was her most sincere smile. He returned his gaze to the newspaper.


    Kisa nced at him and whispered, “I won’t run around these days, but I want to see Jensen. Will


    you… will youe with me?” Gilbert unconsciously clenched the newspaper. Kisa exined


    nervously, “Don’t get me wrong. I just want to see him. We stayed in Athadale for so long, and we


    never visited him.”


    “Even if you go, you might not be able to see him,” Gilbert put down the paper and said to her in a t


    tone, “Have you forgotten Mia’s hostility toward us?”


    Kisa lowered her gaze, remaining silent. Despite knowing that Mia harbored ill feelings toward her, she


    couldn’t help but long to see Jensen. It had been so long since shest saw him, and she wondered


    how he was doing now.


    Gilbert could not help but feel a twinge in his heart as he saw the woman before him with a crestfallen


    expression. He suppressed his temper and offered in a teasing tone, “Alright, I’ll apany you to see


    him.”

    Kisa lifted her head in surprise. “Really?”


    “I, the culprit who hurt him, am going to see him. Do you think it is appropriate?” Gilbert’s voice was


    filled with self-deprecation.


    Kisa shook her head emphatically. “I know it wasn’t you who hurt him. It was either an ident or a


    conspiracy that no one knows about.”


    Gilbert let out a scoffingugh, his heart brimming with bitterness. ‘How amusing it is that she is so


    eager to please me that she will go out of her way to absolve me of me.’


    Helping Absolve Him of me


    Ignoring hisughter, Kisa turned to him and said, “Give me a moment. I’ll go upstairs and change.”


    Watching the excited figure of the woman limping upstairs, Gilbert chuckled silently once again.


    Although the snow had stopped, the windless and rainless weather was still extremely cold. Kisa wore


    a long down jacket, while Gilbert only wore a ck windbreaker. Unable to resist, she reached out to


    hold his hand and asked, “Aren’t you cold, wearing so little?” But as soon as she asked, she realized


    his hand was unusually warm.


    Gilbert withdrew his hand and coldly snorted at her. “What’s the point of wearing so much? Your


    hands are still as cold as a corpse.”


    The warmth in Kisa’s hand suddenly disappeared, and her eyes dimmed, but she still wore a rxed


    smile on her face. “Ha-ha, I have a cold body. I really can’tpare to you men.” She finished


    speaking and got into the car, while Gilbert suddenly turned around and walked back into


    the house.
