It was just like before. The mansion was so silent that it felt terrifying.Kisa crept softly to the third floor.She paused when she passed by Damon's room, but she did not go inside. She looked inside from the door for a moment before going to another room.She took out the keys and unlocked the door deftly.The room was different from Damon's room. The things in there were not covered with pieces of white cloth.The room was probably cleaned regularly, as it was spotless.The blanket was folded nicely on the bed, and there were even a few books placed on the coffee table. And, there was a transparent glass on the table as if someone had been staying there.Kisa stood in the room as she swept her glance across all the decorations in the room.Damon's room was decorated in warm colors, but this room was the complete opposite. The decorations in the room were elegant.There was a counter by the window.Kisa walked over and stared at it.There was a very old red wine on the c
Kisa paused as she furrowed her brows confusedly.She knew that she had heard it right. Indeed, there was a clicking sound in the room.However, her phone was still ringing.Kisa hastily crawled over and switched off her phone without even looking at the caller's phone number.On Gilbert's side.He listened to his phone silently. "I'm sorry, but the number you have dialed is currently busy."He lifted the edge of his mouth and threw his phone to the side before shutting his eyes.He deserved it anyway. He should have never called her when he already knew that she betrayed him, and he still hated her for it!He should have seen it coming!Kisa crawled down to the end of the bed and lifted the blanket before looking at the bedpost.Then, she saw something like a button between that bedpost and the floor.It looked like it was pressed down. Perhaps she accidentally did that just now.She touched the button and started to feel suspicious.'This doesn't look like it belongs her
Nearly all of the pictures were photos of David and Kisa's mother together.Some of them were even taken in the village, and her mother was holding a baby in her arms.The pictures matched the things that her mother wrote in her diary.Emilia once secretly gave birth to a baby boy in the village when she was together with David. And, they spent a great time with each other there.However, she just could not figure out why David did not marry Emilia despite the fact that he loved her, and they even had a child together. Instead, Carolyn got the chance to set Emilia up and make her marry Christopher.She found a strange photo as she was still feeling confused.It was not a photo of Emilia and David. Instead, it was a photo of David and another woman, and there was a little boy standing between them.The little boy looked as though he was two to three years old, and his features resembled Jensen very much.The woman looked like she came right out of a painting with her delicate fe
The third letter was sent very long after the second letter.Kisa unfolded the letter.[Jensen, I have good news for you. I've finally gained a lot of power and money from the Mullen family. Just be patient. I'll come and get you after I have everything else arranged.Be very cautious when you're with the Koopers. Madalyn is a very skeptical person. Remember not to overachieve anything in front of her. Otherwise, she'd think that you're trying to take their family's wealth away from her grandson.Keep this in mind. They're all bad people. They only took you in because they did not want to be labeled as heartless by others. They're just pretending to be your family.You'll never be better than Gilbert, no matter how excellent you are. Just wait. Madalyn is going to do the same to you as she did to me.However, you don't have to be scared. I'm a different man now. Just remember that I'll back you up if Madalyn really did make you leave the country.I'm going to visit the Webb fami
'At that time, he still hadn't gone overseas. Gilbert and I were still teenagers.'From what I remember, Gilbert deeply disliked me at that time. Why did Jensen say Gilbert liked me?'What really happened at that time that I was unaware of?'How could Jensen tell that Gilbert liked me while I couldn't feel that?'If he liked me, why was Sara still there in his life?'And if he had liked me since he was a teenager, why did he treat me so cruelly after I married him?'She was very confused.She could not help but clutch her head. 'There are too many things going on. I can't figure out what's true or false anymore.'She took a deep breath as she suppressed all her complicated emotions.She then picked up the three letters from David to examine them for a while. She noticed that the length of time between the second letter and the last letter was quite long.'Judging from this, I think David stayed with the Mullen family for a long time back then.'And he never wrote Jensen any
His eyes were suddenly gloomy when he saw the incoming call on the screen.He stared at Kisa's name for a few seconds before he threw his phone aside. He did not plan to answer her call.But, when the ringtone almost ended, he suddenly picked up his phone. He then used his thumb to press the accept button.However, he did not speak after the call was connected.It was Kisa who initiated the conversation."Why... did you call me?"Gilbert felt inexplicably angry.He lightly said, "Nothing. I pressed it by accident.""I see... H-How are you? How's your trip?""I'm fine."Kisa grabbed her phone tightly. During this conversation, she felt extremely estranged from him. She felt so estranged that she was a little upset.She bit her lip. She could not help but explain to him, "Actually, regarding that contract, I...""It's fine. I'll end the call if there's nothing else!"Gilbert wanted to end the conversation.Kisa pursed her lips. She said, "Okay. I'll let you get on with your
"You're so punctual.""Why did I come so early?" Gilbert coldly said with a poker face.Kohen grinned dully. He forgave Gilbert for how he reacted. He then pulled him to walk toward the center of the party.Gilbert frowned as he withdrew his hand. He then stared seriously at Kohen."I remember that you have a good relationship with Jensen. And, he became how he is now because of me. So, why were you still willing to help me?"He wanted to ask this question when he first arrived in Raworth.Initially, he did not expect Kohen to help him because of Jensen. The first person he discussed with was not Kohen either.However, that partner of his refused to help him. That was why he talked to Kohen.Unexpectedly, Kohen was more cooperative than he imagined. He actually agreed to help him immediately.Gilbert's impression of Kohen was not a good one due to the rumors regarding him in the world of business.Rumor had it that there was nothing Kohen would not do in the business world. H
'Kohen is radical and scary.'But come to think about it, I'm his wife, I won't want to hurt him.'As long as I don't mess with him, he wouldn't hurt me.'As she thought that, she felt that Kohen was not actually that terrifying."Nothing is absolute. Be careful, you might regret your words one day!"Gilbert laughed softly at Kohen when he saw Eylul walking in his direction.Kohen smiled gently as he shook his head, "I've never regretted anything in my life. To be honest, I don't know what it feels like to regret something. I want to experience it someday.""Don't get carried away. I'm sure your wife will make you feel what it's like to regret one day.""You think too highly of her." Kohen scornfully said, "She just doesn't have what it takes and isn't good enough to make me regret.""Really?" Gilbert smiled faintly. He stared over Kohen at Eylul who was standing behind him.He smiled at her as he greeted, "Hi Mrs. McCray!"Kohen's body was noticeably stiff for a moment.He
