Gilbert dragged her wizened body into the study and grabbed her by the collar. "So what did Howard give you, or did he treat you well in bed, so well that you are so devoted to him that you will protect him, even if you have to take all the blame?" He did not mince his words in humiliating her.Kisa suddenly burst out laughing. "Gilbert, it was you who pushed me out first, and who are you to question me here?" If Gilbert had not pushed her out first, she would not have come forward to admit it. In her eyes, it was he who forced her hand, and now he was questioning her. "Stop blaming me for that. I dare you to say that even if I hadn't pushed you out, you wouldn't have risked your and even GK Pictures's reputation to defend him?" Gilbert gritted his teeth as if Kisa had betrayed him.She looked at the raging man and laughed like crazy, so hard that even tears were flowing out of her eyes. "In your eyes, everything I do is wrong. It is wrong for me not to take the blame, and it is al
The man's action and the woman's struggles stopped at once.Kisa stared in panic at the blood stained on her nails, trembling involuntarily.Gilbert reached for the painful scratch marks on his neck and then raised his hand to slap her.Kisa felt something shatter inside her, accompanied by that loud slap. That something shattered into pieces and there was no way to put it back together again. She smiled and looked into his scarlet eyes. "You are just not as good as him."Perhaps because of his anger or something, the hand that he hit her with kept shaking. He pulled her to the floor and roared in a suppressed voice, "Get out!"Kisa stood up, gritting her teeth against the excruciating pain in her body. She pulled her tattered clothes to cover her body with tears bursting from her eyes. "Gilbert, I hate you." She walked slowly outside without looking back.Until Kisa was out of the door, Gilbert suddenly and furiously swept all the papers off the table. He propped up one hand on
Kelvin frowned. "If you are not asking me to heal you, then you—""I would like to ask you to prescribe me some wonder drug." Kisa stared at his surprised look and slowly said, "The painkiller I took isn't effective anymore. I could not buy wonder drugs from the drugstore, and the hospital wouldn't prescribe me. But I know you must have a way."Kelvin's expression turned grave upon hearing that."You have to know, wonder drugs have an excellent effect in relieving pain, but it is extremely damaging to the body, not to mention it is addictive. You already have less than a year left, and you will only have about six months left if you take this medication.""It doesn't matter."Faced with impending death, Kisa was calm and somewhat perverse. "I can do many things in half a year. If not taking this medication, I may collapse at any time, and I will feel annoyed with myself and Gilbert will shame and humiliate me.""Could it be that you have misunderstood him? He treats you this way
Kisa subconsciously got up and walked outside, where she saw a flower pot shattered on the ground, and the soil and flower seedlings inside were scattered all over the place. Gracie was crouching on the floor, cleaning up the mess. So Kisa went over to help. "Are you alright?"Gracie smiled and shook her head. "I'm fine. I was just thinking of moving the pot over there." She pointed to the row of pots in front of the garden. "The thing slipped from my hands and dropped to the ground.""It is okay, just get a new pot," Kisa said, looking around, only to realize that there was not even a maid in the house. She looked at Gracie in puzzlement. "Didn't Kelvin hire you a maid?"Gracie shook her head. "I don't want a maid. I like to live with him alone. I don't feel comfortable with a maid around."Kisa was startled, her heart sinking. 'How wonderful it is for two people to live alone together; he only has eyes for you, and you only have eyes for him; life is all about each other. But for
Kelvin did not know what to say at this moment. He cared about his woman a lot, and he was still unsure if Kisa had changed for the better. So when he saw his woman was hurt, and Kisa was holding a pair of scissors, he immediately mistook the situation. Now he wanted to apologize to Kisa, but words choked in his throat when he saw Kisa's indifferent expression.Gracie saw that Kisa's hand was bleeding profusely, and she became worried. "Miss Watson, your hand keeps bleeding. Let Kelvin take care of it for you.""No, really." Kisa smiled feebly as she looked at Kelvin and asked again, "Where is the thing?"Kelvin pursed his lips and handed her two boxes of medication in a bag. He had never had a guilty conscience, but this time, he felt he owed her, and even felt that the entire world owed her.Kisa took the medication and left. As she walked past Gilbert, she did not even look at him as if he did not even exist.Gilbert did not look at her either. He asked Kelvin, "What did you gi
"Could you help me investigate? It was five years ago, the night Grandma got into an accident and found out what Sharon was doing?"After Davian heard it, his eyes widened to as big as a deer caught in headlights."Why are you researching this? You're not suspecting...""You have to help me investigate this matter, and don't forget we still have a contract bond."Davian gulped in shock and stared at her earnestly. "Miss, by this, do you mean you did not hurt the old lady?""No one will believe me, so I need evidence," Kisa responded with a cold chuckle."Go and find out about Sharon's alibi for that day, and don't tell Gilbert any of this," Kisa warned.Davian nodded his head vigorously, "Don't you worry. I won't tell Gilbert."Gilbert returned not long after Davian's departure.The scratches on Gilbert's neck had scabbed and were nauseating to look at.The scabbed scratches on Gilbert's neck were evidence of yesterday's incident. Kisa was almost sent into a panic attack upon
After the press conference ended, Sharon was like a demon when she kicked Kisa intensely. But she was back to being gentle and innocent in front of Gilbert. 'I wonder when oblivious Gilbert will see through her two-faced side,' Kisa thought.While Gilbert and Davian were talking inside the room, Sharon sneered at Kisa. "You've not been out these two days, right?"Kisa remained silent, leaning on the back of the chair resting. Sharon was unsatisfied with Kisa being impassive and mocked. "You have no idea how people are hating on you everywhere. You should really be hiding. I'm worried about the day you die from others' hatred."Kisa slowly opened her eyes and smiled at her. "Did you see the marks on Gilbert's neck?"Sharon was stunned.Kisa chuckled. "Do you know how he got it?"Sharon's face immediately darken, "What are you trying to say?"Kisa slowly neatens the bandage on her hand and snickers. "Gilbert says he hates me, but his body tells otherwise. It's normal to leave ma
She wiped off her tears, acting like she was forced to be strong after being wronged. She looked at Gilbert and smiled, "Gilbert, I won't be visiting Grandma today. I'll go some other time. You can go ahead together with Kisa."Gilbert stared at her red eyes for a few seconds and turned toward Kisa."What did you do again?"Even before Kisa could speak, Sharon pulled his arms and said in a soft voice, "Gilbert, you shouldn't blame Kisa. She didn't do anything. It was all my fault; I suddenly felt sick. Don't blame her."Kisa chuckled internally.What a sly lady. It may seem like she was trying to defend her. In fact, the hidden meaning behind those words was to put the blame on Kisa.She was trying to make all the blind men side with her, pity her and help her.Sure enough, Gilbert glanced at her in disgust. Then, he told Sharon, "Don't try to defend her anymore. If she didn't do anything, why would you be crying? You're always being the soft-hearted one trying to defend her. Ho
