"Really? That would be great."Since she was sure that Adrien could not be David, she did not keep testing him. "Uncle Adrien, go check on Vivian. I'm going back now."Adrien nodded. "If you have any problems, talk to me. Don't act rashly next time. Okay?" He was talking about her attempt to kill Gilbert.Kisa nodded vigorously; her eyes determined. "I know, Uncle Adrien.""Go now and take care of yourself."Kisa nodded and turned to leave the garden. Adrien watched her go before turning his gaze.Seeing Kisa leave without saying telling him, Kelvin hurried after her. "Kisa! Kisa!" He trotted to catch up with her. "Didn't you just say that you wanted me to wait for you and we go back together, and that you had something to tell me?"Kisa did not respond but hurried toward the main building. Kelvin looked at her serious face and spontaneously quickened his pace to catch up.After passing the restricted zone, the main building would be visible up ahead. Kisa looked around to make
"Okay, I understand everything. You don't have to explain it to me for him."Kelvin got desperate. "You really misunderstood him. Be it the prison fire or the Jensen thing, you misunderstood him."Kisa nodded. "I know he didn't do any of those."Kelvin was stunned. "You know?"Kisa nodded. "That's why you don't have to say all that. I really understand everything."Kelvin glanced at her calm face skeptically. "If you understand, then why are you still so cold to him?"Kisa thought for a second and suddenly laughed. "We had a fight, just like you thought."Kelvin looked at her in bewilderment, somewhat confused by what she said.Kisa felt sleepy, so she drove him out. "'Don't be afraid if you have a nightmare at night. Just tell yourself in your mind that 'it is just a dream, just a dream'."Kelvin rolled his eyes, as there was no way he was not afraid. He was still anxious when he thought of that ghastly nightmare.Davian and Felicity were both drunk in Club Enigma, and the m
Kisa gasped for air, her vision clearing. She saw light coming in through the window. It was faint, not bright enough, barely illuminating the corner of the bed. She vaguely saw a man sitting in front of a low table. Her heart fluttered with joy, but when she looked closer, there was no one there. Gilbert had not returned for the night.She sat on her bed, hugging her knees, haunted by the nightmare she had just had. In the dream, a voice kept saying to her, "Kisa, you are going to get him killed eventually. You will get him killed." Then she saw Gilbert lying on the floor, covered in blood. She was shocked and jolted out of it. The moment she woke up, she was incredibly glad it was just a dream.She hugged her knees tightly, her eyes steady and steadfast. 'No matter what, I won't let Gilbert get hurt. Definitely not!'In a hotel, a woman helped Gilbert to the bed. He closed his eyes and frowned, as if he were uncomfortable. The woman was on top of him, stroking his face over and ov
"Gilbert, I missed you. Don't go. Don't go..."Gilbert narrowed his eyes dangerously. He wrenched the woman's hand away with force, and in one swift turn, he had her by the neck and pressed her hard against the wall. "Who the hell are you?" Still intoxicated, he could barely make out who the woman in front of him was, except for the faintest sense of familiarity.The woman looked at him sadly, warm tears dripping from her eyes and landing on the back of his hand. "Do you really not remember me?" she asked.Gilbert narrowed his eyes, but he still could not make out who she was. He was so upset and irritable that he flung her to the floor. Wanting to see Kisa now, he stumbled out of the room.The woman stared grimly at the doorway of the empty room, her clenched fists bursting with blue veins in hatred. "You will be mine, eventually. Everything you have will be mine, and only mine."Kisa did not sleep for the rest of the night after waking up from a nightmare. It was only at dawn th
After all, nowadays, besides the paper version, there was also an online version. Kisa took a sip of her soup and asked, "How did it go last night? Did you have a nightmare?"Kelvin looked resentful at the very mention of it. "Look at my eyes yourself. Take a good look."Kisa glanced at his eyes and said amusedly, "They look normal, and you're not blind. What's wrong?""You have the nerve to ask me what is wrong. Look at the dark circles under my eyes."When Kisa looked closely, she really noticed that he had severe dark circles under his eyes."I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't go back to sleep after that, so I played with my phone for most of the night."Kisa narrowed her eyes. "Looks like it is really because of that tea."Kelvin could not care less about being angry again. He said with a serious expression on his face, "Could it be Vivian?"Kisa shook her head. "She has no reason to harm me, and it was I who asked you to come to treat her leg, so I suspect t
Kisa did not make a sound but kept her head low and drank her soup.Kelvin came to her side and said, "Kisa, trust me, Gilbert is not such an easy person. He only has you in mind. The media has always been so obsessed with reporting such things."Kisa finished the soup in the bowl but did not take a single bite of the sandwich she was holding in her hand, as she had no appetite. She looked at Kelvin. "I understand; he must have been drunk."Kelvin froze for a moment, and then quickly nodded his head. "Yes, yes. Look at the photos in the newspaper. It looks like he was drunk.""So, whatever happened, it wasn't his intention. So don't worry, I won't blame him." And she knew she did not have the right to blame him. After all, she was the one who pushed him away just so that she could get near Adrien.Kisa looked too calm for Kelvin's comfort. "You really don't blame Gilbert?"She shook her head, looking serious. "I don't blame him."Kelvin suddenly frowned. "Kisa, you don't blame h
The grand garden looked magnificent in the hazy moonlight. In the opulent basement, other than the exquisite decor and furnishings, there was also a natural hot spring, where steam from the hot spring imbued the entire basement, turning the place into a mysterious and otherworldly fairyland.A slender and graceful woman was lounging on a nearby couch, with a thin blanket covering half of her body and exposing a pair of gorgeous and slender legs.Mr. Mullen Sr. got up from the couch, buttoning his shirt as he said, "I heard you went to see that man last night." There was a hint of anger in his tone.The woman was not afraid of him and simply replied coquettishly, "Yes. So what?"Mr. Mullen Sr. frowned and turned to look at her. She had a chaste face, but her expression and posture were like those of a succubus, sexy and seductive. Mr. Mullen Sr.'s anger vanished when he saw her beautiful body. He softened his attitude and said, "We agreed you wouldn't go out, didn't we? It wouldn't
Gilbert had previously mentioned to Mr. Mullen Sr. about visiting the 'restricted area'. Mr. Mullen Sr. told him he would think about it, but no one knew if he had decided yet.Thinking of Gilbert, Kisa seemed somewhat distracted. Gilbert had not been seen around the Mullen residence for several days, nor had he contacted her through calls or messages. Felicity had called her a few times but did not bring up Gilbert, and neither had Kisa asked. At one time, she thought that Gilbert and Davian had returned to Calthon, which would be good, because she would not have to say anything hurtful to gain Adrien's trust.Half a month later, Vivian could finally stand up, but still could not walk. The mere act of standing up brought tears of joy to her.Kisa said to her happily, "I believe you'll be walking soon."Vivian nodded excitedly.Kelvin was leaning in his chair and said with relief, "It's better than I expected. This way I can heal you as soon as possible and go back to see my Graci
