Love's Perfect Match

When she saw how surprised Gilbert looked, her heart beat faster. "I'm fine."

"Thank goodness you are. I was so scared that Elspeth would get upset with me for not taking care of you."

He had been in charge of the bar all this while. If Elspeth's precious sister was neglected, he would be done for.

Isabel felt disappointed after hearing what he said. It turned out that he was concerned about her because of Elspeth, whereas she thought he had other intentions.

Seeing the change on her face, Gilbert assumed she recalled her previous bad experiences, so he quickly comforted her, "Don't worry. You will be Elspeth's sister soon. You're a precious charm, you know? No one will dare to bully you. Otherwise, you can tell them that you're acquainted with me. I'll be able to ensure your safety."

Isabel could tell that all Gilbert cared about was Elspeth, seeing how he repeatedly mentioned her name. The affectionate feeling that she felt for him earlier was instantly shattered into pieces.

However, she wouldn't take anything that belonged to Elspeth, including her feelings.

"I know. Thanks, Gilbert."

With a smile, she thanked him softly.

Elspeth and Gilbert… sound like a good match, Gilbert mused. His affection for Isabel instantly increased a little.

"Come on. Let me take you to dinner. You must be hungry after staying for so long."

Isabel accepted his kindness without hesitation. "Sure. Thanks, Gilbert."

Gilbert sent a text to Elspeth to inform her that he would be taking Isabel for lunch. After that, he left the sanatorium with Isabel.
