Chapter 548 Stand Up if You Have What It Takes

Gilbert stood up and gazed down at her contemptuously.

“Even if I were sick, I’m not as sick as you. At the very least, I don’t act pitiful.”

He took a few steps back and smiled lightly, “Aren’t you always acting so arrogantly? Stand up if you have what it takes.”

Kisa gripped her pant leg tightly.

This time, she truly could not stand up.

Her ankle was numb from the pain, while her tailbone was throbbing in pain from the fall just now.

Seeing how she did not move for a long time, Gilbert revealed a scornful look.

“I’ve told you that acting pitiful in front of me is useless. If you’re that tough, then stand up!” It was as if the man in front of her was purposefully making things hard for her. ‘What’s wrong with him again? Him treating me coldly and indifferently like a stranger was good; I could stay out of pain and disaster that way. Why is he trapping me here today and making things difficult for me? Is he angry because I did a DNA test with Ada and Andrew without his permission?‘ Kisa wondered.

The man leaned against the wall once more.

One of his hands was in his pocket while the other held a cigarette. He stood there lazily as he watched her.

He looked as if he was not going to give up until she stood up herself.

Kisa sat on the floor and did not dare to move. The moment she moved, she could feel the pain coming from her tailbone and ankle.
