Kelvin looked at Gilbert in shock. ‘How much hatred does he have for this woman. for him to humiliate her like that?

He then suddenly understood why this woman outright refused to tell Gilbert about her condition.

Kisa looked at Gilbert with reddened eyes, her heart aching. ‘If this was Sara or Sharon, he would be pained instead of trying to humiliate me.’ ‘It’s only with me that he is so brutal, so ruthless.’ Looking at her reddened, bitter eyes, Gilbert only offered a sneer, “Crawl then. Since you want to act like you’re dying, then act the part. What’s the point of using those props?” “You want me to crawl? I refuse!” Kisa glared at him and as the last of the words left her mouth, she struggled to climb up. ‘Even if I die, I refuse to die in front of this man bereft of any dignity.’ Her soaked body felt a chill all over, but it was nothing compared to the ice in her heart.

The discomfort of her body and the dizziness in her head had sapped her of her strength, just as she bent her knees to get up, she very quickly fell onto the ground again.

And that happened over and over again, looking like a dying clown.

Although Kelvin did not quite like this woman, he still could not stand watching this go on.

He glanced at Gilbert and caught on that although Gilbert was looking indifferently at that woman, he was seemingly holding something back as his fist by the side was clenched tight.

He could not help but to sigh and said to Kisa, who was still trying to get on her feet, “What’s the point of your dignity if you’re dead? Why push yourself like this?” There was another meaning behind Kelvin’s words. Kisa understood that he wanted her to crawl out, so at least Gilbert will allow him to treat her, and to give her a chance to live.

Yet, she dismissed this opportunity outright.

She gritted her teeth and endured the severe pain as she got up, but as her strength was sapped, she staggered a few steps forward before slamming heavily onto the ground again. She saw herself getting closer to the door, smiled, and then struggled to get up again. The study was silent, with only the heavy breathing of the people inside audible, and the muffled thuds of Kisa falling over and over again.

No one knew how long it took, but when Kisa eventually walked out of the study, she felt like she was reborn.

At the same time, a loud crash of something being smashed rang out from the room. She did not even turn around to look at that man as she walked on, with much difficulty, toward her room by leaning against the wall.

when she got into her room, she no longer had to pretend to be tough and allowed her body to collapse onto the ground. Thinking of Gilbert’s merciless humiliation of her, she bit the back of her hand as she trembled and sobbed.

She wanted to scream at Gilbert, ‘Why treat me like this?

But asking that question, was just her humiliating herself.

She curled into ball and hugged herself tightly.

Her body was cold, her heart even more so. Her world was long bereft of warmth. ‘Let’s just leave. This world really has nothing left for me to live for.’ But she was bitter.

The more she hated the man, the more bitter she got.

“Do I really want to die saddled with those false charges and humiliation on my back?’

‘No, I want to prove to Gilbert.’

‘I want to proof to him, within this last remaining year I have, that I’ın innocent. I want him to blame himself, to feel guilty. ‘I want… I want Gilbert to kneel before her and beg her to accept Kelvin’s treatment.’ ‘Heh…heheheh

She let out an eerie laugh as her heart was gradually filled with bitterness and hatred.
