Gilbert did not respond. He just stared at her sullenly.Seeing his grave expression, the smile on Kisa's face stiffened. "No... No way," she said in astonishment.There was no trace of the joy of being pregnant on her face. There was only disbelief and the look of not knowing what to do. Gilbert lowered his eyes to mask his disappointment. 'So, she really doesn't want to have my baby,' he thought to himself. When he looked up at her again, there was an added touch of distantness in his eyes. He pushed Kisa off his body and faintly said, "Stop thinking too much. Your body is your own, and don't you have any idea whether you are pregnant or not?"Kisa froze for a second before sitting down across from him. "You know, usually there are obvious signs of pregnancy, but I didn't have any. Besides, I fell a few times before and I was fine. So, I'm sure I'm not pregnant, but..." Kisa looked at him across the table in puzzlement and said, "Then, why are you always so concerned about my bell
Gilbert's face was a little sullen. "So, you like to laugh a lot, don't you? Do you believe that I can make you dread laughing from now on?"Felicity glanced at Davian and wisely kept quiet. But, in her mind, she was exasperated because of Gilbert's perverted behavior of not even allowing her to laugh. She looked at Kisa and said, "Did something happen? I feel like your man is in a terrible mood.""He lost his unrequited love, so he is in a bad mood now."Upon hearing Kisa say that, Gilbert's eyes turned cold. He glared at Kisa, who met his baleful gaze squarely. Then, she said, "Am I wrong to say that Sara is your unrequited love?"Felicity looked cautiously at the two. She had just heard about Sara from Davian. 'Gilbert says he is committed to his wife, yet he has another woman in his heart.' As she thought to herself, a trace of contempt flashed across her eyes. She felt lucky to have Davian. 'He might be a numbskull, but at least, he is faithful,' she thought to herself again.
'Isn't that Arthur? I have been looking for him.' Kisa felt that she would know more about David at the Mullen residence. So, she wanted to stay there no matter what.In the meantime, Arthur also seemed to be looking for her. When he saw Kisa, he ran toward her, and Kisa got up to meet him.Gilbert frowned, wondering why Kisa's eyes lit up when she saw the guy. 'Does she have a crush on that guy?' With a sulky thought in mind, he looked straight at Kisa with a pair of fiery eyes.Felicity also glanced at the guy and was surprised. "Hey, isn't that the handsome guy who Kisa chased after at the airport yesterday?"Gilbert's face sank even further. "Kisa chased after him?""Ahh, yeah, yeah." Felicity froze, wondering if she had said something wrong.Gilbert was so angry that he laughed. "How?""Uh..." Felicity subconsciously glanced at Davian, hesitating to say anything. But, Davian was staring at her with a curious look on his face. Felicity felt like she wanted to roll her eyes a
"Staying at my house?" Arthur furrowed his brow in puzzlement."What? Can't I?" Kisa said and looked up at the villa in front of her. "You see how large your house is? There shouldn't be any problem with me staying here, right?""Yeah, no problem. Just that, why do you want to stay at my house? Wouldn't it be more relaxing to stay in a hotel?" Arthur wondered.Kisa suddenly sighed. "I came all the way here to congratulate your grandfather on his birthday—"Arthur suddenly interrupted her. "So, you really are that celebrity on TV? Otherwise, my grandfather wouldn't have invited you.""Can you hear me out first?" Kisa wrinkled her nose in displeasure.Arthur pouted, feeling that she was full of lies."I came alone to congratulate your grandfather on his birthday, and I wanted to spend a few days in Athadale. But, as you know, it's dangerous for a woman to be out alone, so I don't feel like staying in a hotel.""Then, why don't you bring your assistant and bodyguard with you?""H
"It's hard to say. You have a mature disposition, while that man has a sunny one. So, you two are different. Generally, girls like sunny dispositions."Felicity could not help but give Davian a kick under the table. She wanted to hint at him to stop blabbering.However, Davian was a blockhead. He asked her in confusion, "Why did you kick me?""Nothing. I just wanted to remind you to hurry and finish your juice. You talk too much!" Felicity huffed.Davian glanced at her glumly.'This woman is so fierce!' he thought.Meanwhile, Gilbert had a tense expression while his chest heaved slightly. He was obviously suppressing his anger.Felicity smiled at him and said, "Why did you ask Davian a question like that? With that aesthetic judgment of his, ugly women can be pretty, and pretty women are monsters. You should ask me instead."Gilbert was morose and did not speak.Felicity continued, "Don't worry. You're much more attractive than that pretty boy. Women generally like men like yo
Arthur did not notice the odd atmosphere. When he ran up to Kisa, he finally noticed how odd the atmosphere was.It seemed as though there was a murderous feeling floating in the air.Moreover, he kept having the feeling that someone was glaring daggers at him. It sent shivers down his spine.He could not help but move closer to Kisa. Then, he whispered to her, "I just told my parents and grandparents that one of my friends will be staying over for a few days, and they agreed. After this, you can stay over. I already got the servants to tidy up a room for you."Kisa was happy to hear his words. She smiled and said, "Thank you so much.."When Gilbert saw the joyous expression on the woman's face, his dark eyes flamed with anger.'I don't think this woman is staying at the Mullen residence for serious business. Moreover, there's someone dangerous like Anthony in the Mullen family. She has no reason to stay at the Mullen residence. The only explanation is that she's interested in th
Kisa was stunned. She blinked and asked, "What do you mean? You're not going to let me stay at your house?"Arthur was amused. "You have your husband, so why do you still want to stay at my house? By the way, stop lying to me next time. The trust between people is already fragile enough. If you keep lying, no one will believe you in the future.""No... Didn't we agree to let me stay at your house? You can't go back on your word after getting back your crystal pendant?! No matter how I lied to you, I still did help you find that crystal pendant of yours, didn't I? Aren't you turning your back on someone who helped you?"Seeing Kisa's angered and panicked expression, Gilbert frowned slightly.'She... really looks like she wants to stay over at the Mullen residence. And, it doesn't seem to be because of Arthur Mullen. But, what's her motive behind staying at the Mullen residence? What is she trying to do? Why is she always hiding things from me?' he wondered.While Gilbert was in dee
"Will you also be staying at my place, Mr. Kooper?"Gilbert immediately embraced Kisa into his arms. He chuckled, "Naturally. Wherever my wife is, that's where I'll be.""Alright, then!" Mr. Mullen Sr. caressed the dragon's head on his walking stick. Then, he laughed casually, "My place is huge and has lots of room, so you two can stay as long as you like. Coincidentally, Mr. Tanner will also be staying for a few days. You can all keep each other company."Kisa turned to look at Adrien in reflex.'It seems like Adrien and Mr. Mullen Sr. truly share an extraordinary relationship,' she thought.As usual, Adrien met her gaze with a smile in his eyes. He looked gentle and amiable.Kisa watched him. Strangely, she did not find him genuine.'I have a really bad impression of Adrien right now. I wonder if it's because he's with Carolyn,' she thought.Not only was the Mullen residence huge, but even their interior was incredibly lavish.Since Gilbert and Kisa were husband and wife, th
