Chapter 542 A Dream

“It’s because you like her and she’s the only one in your heart. I can never gain a place in your heart no matter what I do.”
“It’s because you like her and she’s the only one in your heart. I can never gain a place in your heart no matter what I do.”

Isabel nearly sobbed when she made those statements, tears already streaming down her face.

She couldn’t figure out why Gilbert couldn’t let Elspeth go even though she was married and had a child.

Every time Elspeth’s name was brought up, she feared the arrogance and trust in her sister’s eyes.

Elspeth was too outstanding. No matter what she did, Isabel just couldn’t catch up with her.

Moreover, Gilbert never seemed to have noticed her, which made her feel distressed and helpless.

“Men are everywhere out there in the world. We’re not fit for each other, and you have better choices.”

“To me, you’re the best choice I can make.” Isabel looked into his eyes with a burning gaze as if anticipating his answer.

“Stop making a fuss, Isabel. Change your clothes and come home with me. Elsie is still waiting for you.”

Gilbert was also worried that he might hurt her with harsh words, so he softened his tone.

Isabel instantly turned cold upon hearing that. “If you’re not going to accept me, then leave me alone!”

Her words immediately attracted cheers from the men around them.

“Come on! Weren’t you going to dance? Why are you not dancing yet?”

“Who’s that man? Why is he in our way?”

“Go away! Stop causing trouble here.”
