Sophia thought it must be Gilbert returning as she hurriedly dashed out.

Gilbert's expression tightened. "Sophia."

Careful not to wake Jenna, Gilbert gently handed her over to Sophia. "Take Jenna downstairs for a bit, will you?" "Sure thing!"

Knowing he didn't want Jenna to get scared, Sophia agreed and headed downstairs with Jenna in her arms. Gilbert frowned and briskly entered the apartment.
