Chapter 1543
As Kisa started to walk away, she was suddenly pulled back into place.
Gilbert firmly held her hand once again, addressing Sara. “You were injured while saving me, so in a way, I owe you my life. Tell
me what you want. If it’s within my means. I’ll give it to you.’
Sara’s voice caught in her throat, her expression growing even more heart wrenching. Tears streamed down her face as she
asked him, “Do you really believe I saved you just to receive something in return? After all these years, haven’t you figured out
how I feel about you?”
“Initially, you helped me. Later, to save you from trouble, I became your boyfriend in name only. You know very well that we never
shared a deeper connection,” he recounted.
Back in school, he had accidentally misplaced the birthday gift Kisa had given him. Sara found it, and to show his gratitude, he
promised to do her a favor. Not long after, she asked him to become her boyfriend in name only, claiming she was overwhelmed
by her numerous admirers, which affected her studies. He had initially refused, but after overhearing Kisa and Jensen’s
conversation under a tree, he mistakenly believed Kisa had ulterior motives for trying to please him. In a fit of anger, he agreed to
be Sara’s nominal boyfriend.
Time flew by, and he never imagined that Sara would still be fixated on that verbal agreement. When she disappeared years ago,
he mistakenly thought it was Kisa’s doing and was filled with guilt, which led him to search for Sara relentlessly. He did not
harbor any romantic feelings for Sara, and this should have been clarified long ago. 1
With a distant gaze, he looked at the woman before him.
“I’ll give you a sum of money. Use it to live your life to the fullest.”
“No. I can’t...” Sara sobbed, her voice cracking with heartache, “I can’t live without you. These past years have been a living hell
for me, and I’ve only clung to life to see you again. If I don’t have you, what is the point of living?”
Gilbert’s face sank. He turned to Kelvin and said, “Take her back home. Her injuries should heal soon. You don’t have to go out
of your way to treat her anymore. Focus on spending time with Gracie instead.”
Kelvin nodded, then tugged at Sara. ’Let’s go. Gilbert married years ago, and even his children have already grown up. It’s time
for you to move on.”

“Enough! All of you are so happy now, except for me, just me...” Sara’s voice trembled as she pointed at Kisa. “She caused the
death of so many people, even your loved ones. How can she still be happy? The death of your parents, your grandmother-”
“Enough!” Gilbert roared, his voice thundering with anger. He looked at Kisa’s pale face, worry flickering in his eyes. When he
turned to Sara, his gaze was sharp and icy.
“I’m warning you, not another word.”
“Why not? It’s all true.’
Kisa spoke up, her voice shaky. ’You two should talk this out. I... I want to go upstairs.” She lowered her head, trying to pry her
hand from Gilbert’s tight grip.
Seeing this, Kelvin quickly said, “Yeah, I think you both need to have a serious talk. Kisa doesn’t look too well. I will take her
upstairs to check on her.”
Gilbert stared intently at Kisa, watching her struggle to free her hand.
He silently sighed, finally releasing her hand and whispered, “Get some rest and don’t overthink.”
“Okay,’ Kisa mumbled in response, her head lowered as she walked toward the apartment. Kelvin hurriedly followed her.
