She thought it was not a bad idea. But, realizing that he would not be able to sleep, she shook her head. "Never mind. I'll just look at my phone. I'm not sleepy, anyway."

Gilbert said nothing as he handed her phone to her, leaned back against the headboard, and looked at his phone too. The room was warm and quiet, with only a dim wall lamp on. Not long after, Kisa fell asleep, the phone in her hand still playing a video. He carefully took her phone out of her hand with a forced smile.

'She really fell asleep quickly.' He looked at the side of Kisa's face for a long time and felt that she still looked somewhat the same as she did when she was young.

Grinning to himself, he took out his phone and snapped several photos of the side of her face. And then he lay down, hugging her as he took a few more shots.

Perhaps his actions roused her; she let out a soft moan, before rolling over and snuggling up in his arms. Gilbert's heart softened, and he rested his chin on the top of her head t

    His phone was on the bedside table, but half of it was hanging off the edge, so it fell as soon as Kisa's hand brushed past it. The phone fell on the carpet with a sudden thud. Her heart skipped a beat, and she tensed up, afraid of waking Gilbert up. He had always been alert, but this time, there was no reaction from him. He was still sleeping soundly. It seemed to her that he really was tired.She bent down to pick up the phone. As she was doing so, her fingers instinctively touched the power button on the side of the phone and the phone screen lit up. She was not really looking at first, but a photo caught her eyes. It startled her for a second before she pressed the side button again.As the phone screen lit up again, the photo came into view. It was a picture of her and Gilbert with her nestling in Gilbert's arms, sleeping soundly, while he was resting his chin on the top of her head, smiling. It was a beautiful picture. Even if it was just a photo, she could see the smile and sp

    Kelvin immediately shed his frivolous manner, his expression turning grave. "What to do then? Any possible suspects? Since we're all staying in the Mullen residence, how come Gilbert's okay?"Kisa shook her head. "I'm just guessing. Let's observe for a few days and see how things go."Kelvin nodded. "So do you want to visit Miss Mullen at the Mullen residence today?""I'm not going." Kisa took a mouthful of spaghetti and mumbled, "I'll stay at Felicity's place for a few days. If there are no more nightmares in the next few days, then someone at the Mullen residence must have tampered with my food or the things around me. First I'll determine whether that's the case, and if it is, then I'll go to the Mullen residence to find out who that person is. In the meantime, please keep an eye on the Mullen family and Adrien these few days.""Ahh! Speaking of Mr. Tanner reminds me of something."Kisa was startled. "What's up?""Didn't you ask me to observe Mr. Tanner to see if he had underg

    Gilbert murmured, his voice a little wispy.Kisa shook her head bemusedly. 'What's wrong with him today? He's so melancholy, it's not like him at all.'"Well, well, well, look how lovey-dovey this couple is."Gilbert hugged Kisa in silence for a long moment until Felicity's teasing giggle came. He immediately let go of Kisa, his face changing with such speed that his melancholy look switched to sullenness in an instant once Felicity and Davian walked in.He looked at the two of them and asked expressionlessly, "What the hell are you two doing here?""Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Felicity shook her head and snickered at the gloomy-faced man. "You are about to be the father of three children, yet still so bad-tempered."Gilbert shot her a look and brought Kisa inside. Felicity and Davian had not eaten until now, and neither had Gilbert. Kisa had a small snack for lunch along with the large plate of spaghetti she had made for breakfast.Felicity asked the maid to cook, when Gilbert slowly rol

    Kisa's heart sank for no reason. "Okay, tell me where to meet up."Lea asked to meet her in an ordinary cafe on a boulevard. Gilbert drove her there and parked the car near the cafe."I don't know how long I'm going to talk to Lea. If you get bored, you can go on back without me," Kisa said, as she had planned to come by herself at first.But Gilbert was worried about her. He felt that since Lea was Anthony's woman, she posed a risk against Kisa. He had wanted to meet Lea with her, but Lea had said on the phone earlier that she wanted to see Kisa alone. At first, he had been reluctant to allow Kisa to come, but relented after Kisa persuaded him to agree.With the window down, Gilbert looked toward the cafe on the side of the boulevard and could see where Lea was. He leaned back in his seat, took out a cigarette, and said to Kisa, "It's okay. I'll wait here." Kisa looked at him and said nothing, then got out of the car. As she walked around the front of the car, Gilbert suddenly sai

    "Actually, it doesn't matter anymore. You don't have to tell me. Or maybe you can tell me later." It was not that she did not want to know what Lea had done behind her back; rather it felt like Lea was saying her last words. The idea of that terrified Kisa, so she would have preferred Lea to tell her later."It is important. Those things are still important." Lea smiled faintly and lowered her head to take a sip of coffee.Kisa pursed her lips and looked away. "It's better not to talk about it.""I'll be left with regrets if I don't tell you now," Lea said. "The first thing I did to harm you started from the birthday celebration of Mr. Case Sr. I called you and told you there were short of temporary maids and asked you to go with me. And then Anthony and Sharon set you up by luring Howard and you in the garret of the Case residence. Do you remember that incident?"Kisa stared at her. "I can't believe you were involved in their plans at the time."Lea chuckled. "Yes, he used me tha

    She never expected them to hide their evil plan so well."At that time, when you went to the washroom to clean off the coffee spilled on your dress, you gave me your handbag, remember?""A-And then?""Then, I secretly took out your cell phone and took screenshots of you and Gilbert's intimate photos, as well as your intimate chats with Gilbert. If I remember correctly, you and Gilbert had reconciled at that time, but because of Mrs. Kooper Sr., you kept it a secret. Because of the evidence I photographed, Mrs. Kooper Sr. found out you two were together again. I heard Anthony say that Mrs. Kooper Sr. was so angry that she attempted suicide.""What?" Kisa was too shocked to speak."The day Mrs. Kooper Sr. tried to kill herself seemed to be your birthday, too." Lea murmured.Kisa was obviously smiling, but her eyes were filled with tears—tears of remorse. Her body tensed up, as if she had figured out something, but her thoughts were chaotic. She picked up her coffee and was about to

    Kisa stared at Lea in confusion, and Lea nodded her head."So, out of guilt for me at the time, you wanted Gilbert to find the warden so that he and I could make up, right?"Lea nodded again but looked a little sad. "After I told Gilbert about the warden, he went straight after Jensen, and then the accident fell upon Jensen. So, in fact, I was the one who was responsible for Jensen's accident, not Gilbert."She was too naive in the past, doing everything for her so-called love. In the end, after doing all those ridiculous things in the name of love, not only did she fail to get even a half-hearted response but also ended up hurting herself with a ton of guilt. Now that she had confessed it all to Kisa, she felt much better. She felt that even if she were to die now, she would feel more at ease.Kisa's hands were trembling. 'If it was Adrien who engineered Jensen's accident, then it was likely that someone had tampered the car that Jensen was driving. But why would Adrien do this to

    Kisa sat on the chair, confounded. 'So, Gilbert didn't lie to me; Andrew and Ada really are my children. But whose baby did I see back then which was all purple and breathless? No. That baby was also mine. I could clearly feel the baby being taken out of my belly at that time. So, was I carrying triplets? Who was it that saved me from the fire—Adrien or Jensen? If Jensen was really working for Adrien all along, then perhaps I'd fallen into a trap from the moment I was rescued from the fire. They might have been setting me up from that moment on.'The more she thought about it, the more chilled and shocked she felt. All her past speculations, assumptions, and everything that she had thought of as the truth until now had all been overturned. 'The people I trusted and relied on were scheming against and harming me, and the man I hated and resented so much never hurt me. Gilbert is the only person who has never schemed against me.'She covered her face with her hands as tears seeped out

    In a small town in the South, a gentle breeze caressed the cheeks of passersby, creating a pleasant and serene atmosphere. This town, known for its tourism, was adorned with flowers even in its narrow alleys. The surrounding houses were all quaint inns, exuding a poetic and picturesque charm.Beneath an arching bridge, Kisa set up an easel to display and sell her paintings. She had always loved painting since childhood. Although she had not achieved great success in this field, her vivid and evocative paintings were very popular with tourists. She would sell most of her paintings every day.On weekends, Blake would join her at the stall, but today was Wednesday, and she was alone. After arranging her paintings, she had barely sat down when people began to gather around. Some admired her art, while others immediately offered to buy. Her paintings were reasonably priced, which attracted many customers."Miss, I'd like that painting of the snow-covered rose garden at night.""Alright,

    In the backyard, Kohen looked at his older brother's calm expression, a hint of worry in his voice. "Bro, are you alright?""I'm fine," Hayes said, adjusting the blanket on his lap. "Tomorrow, take me to meet those medical geniuses you found.""Oh, sure..." Kohen nodded in agreement, but after a moment, he could not help but ask, "Bro, what did that woman say to you that made you change your mind so suddenly?"Hayes gazed at the stars in the sky, his voice cool and distant. "She told me she's doing well, very happy. Then she pointed out how pitiful and miserable I am right now. She asked me if I don't feel envious, knowing how well she is doing compared to me."Kohen grimaced, realizing that the woman had provoked his brother into action.Hayes lowered his eyes, a faint smile on his face. "That's right. How could I not be envious? So, I want to heal my legs, live a good life, and show her that I can do better than her."Kohen felt a pang of sympathy for his brother. From Hayes's

    Mentioning Hayes, Eylul's expression became complex. "Hayes is reclusive and doesn't like to see people. Only a single old servant has been taking care of him all these years. I only met him once, back when I married Kohen."Mia's heart ached, recalling the enigmatic yet deeply emotional man. She could not help but feel a lump in her throat. "How's his health?" Mia asked.Eylul replied, "His health is fine, but his legs have remained the same. Kohen has found top orthopedic experts for him and even sought out Kelvin Hoover from Calthon, but he refuses treatment. For so many years, he hasn't even stepped outside the backyard.""You mean he's been living in the backyard all this time?" Jensen asked gravely.Eylul nodded. "Yes, Kohen wanted him to live in the main house, but he refused. He only likes staying in the backyard. Moreover, the room he stays in used to be..." Eylul glanced at Mia. She had heard that Mia used to live in that room.With a complicated expression, Mia pursed h

    "Let's forget everything that just happened,' Mia said.Jensen looked up at her. In the moonlight, his eyes were deep and complex, profound and unfathomable.Mia tried to muster a smile. "You don't have to feel burdened. In a way, I forced you. And you must have always disliked me. Actually, I didn't come to you for money; I just wanted to see you. Now that I have, I should go. Jensen, from now on... take care."With that, she walked away, fearing that if she lingered any longer, she would not be able to leave. But after only a few steps, she was embraced from behind.Jensen's voice was low and hoarse. "Stay with me."Mia trembled at his words. Jensen continued. "But I still have so many things to do and someone in my heart I can't let go of. I don't know... when I will be able to give you a satisfactory answer. If you don't want to stay with me without any promises or guarantees, you can—""I'm willing," Mia blurted out, "as long as I can be with you, I don't care about anything

    Mia's face changed instantly. " You... you know I like Jensen, why would you...""Heh, if you like Jensen, shouldn't you be willing to do anything for him? If you can't even do this, how can you claim to love him?""I won't do it! Doing this would be betraying Jensen. I would risk my life for him, but I can't do this."Adrien stared at her flushed face and gently chuckled, his words loaded with meaning. "Aren't you feeling all hot and bothered yet?"Mia frowned. Her body was indeed getting hotter and more agitated. 'Why would Adrien ask this? Could it be the drink...?'As the thought crossed her mind, her heart sank. Seeing Adrien's cold expression and the man's playful smile, Mia turned and ran. But before she could take more than a few steps, she was dragged back. Weakened by the drink, her desperate struggles were futile. As the man pressed her down, playing with her like a toy, she closed her eyes in despair. She thought she could never face Jensen again. With a bitter laugh,

    Adrien Tanner, Jensen's father, stood before Mia with a warm smile. "My son is truly awkward when it comes to matters of the heart. He's even willing to refuse such a beautiful young woman like you."Mia stared at him, her tears suddenly streaming down her face. "I only wanted to see him, even if it was to face rejection. Wouldn't it better to say it clearly to my face?""Yes, it would." Adrien agreed. "But standing here stubbornly won't help, because he left on a business trip a couple of days ago."Mia's heart ached even more, realizing that Jensen had avoided using the front door just to evade her.Adrien continued. "I have a way to make him come to you willingly, but it depends on whether you're willing to cooperate."Mia nodded. "What do I have to do?"Adrien motioned to his bodyguard, who handed him a glass of wine. "Drink this," he said.Mia furrowed her brow, hesitant.Adrien gently patted her shoulder, like a father would."Don't be afraid. I won't harm you. From the

    Filled with guilt, Mia stepped forward, but Kohen suddenly pulled out a handgun and aimed it at her."Get out!"Jensen pulled Mia back. He looked at the cold man before him. It was this man who had taken him in years ago. At that time, Kohen was young, a carefree and privileged young man. Now, he seemed to have grown up all at once, his eyes colder and more distant.Jensen said with a troubled expression, "If you ever need me in the future, don't hesitate to find me."Kohen sneered coldly; pain etched in his brow. He mocked himself. "I never should have taken you in back then. In the end, it was I who harmed my own brother."Jensen pursed his lips, not knowing what to say, only feeling an unbearable pain in his heart. It was the first time he felt he owed someone. That sense of indebtedness suffocated him."Get out, and don't let me see you two ever again."On that night, Jensen and Mia left the McCray family. As a result of Hayes's ordeal, the McCray family underwent tremendous

    "What on earth happened?"Jensen did not speak. Mia choked out. "The collaboration between the Burton family and the McCray family was a trap. We were ambushed by the Burton family, and Hayes... he was hit by a car trying to save us.""Damn it!" Kohen cursed under his breath, abruptly pulling a knife from a nearby bodyguard and pointing it at them. "What are your lives worth? Why would my brother save you? Why?"Mia bit her lip, tears streaming down her face. 'It's my fault. I wanted to save Jensen, but I should have gone alone. I shouldn't have dragged Hayes into this. He seemed cold-blooded and heartless, and I never thought that he would risk his life for me. Why was he so good to me?'"Kohen..."Suddenly, a weak cry rang out. Hayes had awakened.Kohen hurriedly moved closer, gripping Hayes's hand. "Bro!"Hayes's face was deathly pale. He did not look at Kohen, but instead turned his gaze to Mia. His eyes were calm. He saw Mia's red-rimmed eyes and the tears lingering there,

    Hayes was sent flying by the car, his body crashing into a wall before bouncing back.Mia's entire body felt ice-cold as she trembled, yelling, "Hayes!""Kill them all!" A hoarse, aged voice suddenly rang out from the entrance. It was Curtis. He looked at Kendall's lifeless body on the ground, his eyes filled with rage, shouting, "Run them over! I want them to join my grandson in death!""Ah!" Jensen roared, disregarding the guards' swinging knives, and like a madman, charged at Curtis. Curtis's face changed, desperately pulling a nearby guard in front of him as a shield. But it was useless. Jensen, like a crazed beast, attacked anyone in his path. Soon, his knife was held against Curtis's throat.Curtis trembled all over. "Wh-What do you want?"Jensen, covered in blood with splatters on his face, looked like a demon that had emerged from a battleground. He grabbed Curtis and held him hostage in front of him. "Let us go!""Don't even think about it!" Curtis retorted angrily. "You
