Gilbert glared at Kisa with bloodshot eyes, "My grandmother's been in a coma for five years. Do you know how badly I want her to regain consciousness? Why do you keep on making me go through despair over and over again? Why?"

"I'm not! I just wanted to find the perpetrator that hurt Mrs. Kooper Sr."

"Aren't you the perpetrator?" Gilbert growled.

Then, he tightened his grip. Kisa found it harder and harder to breathe.

Kelvin quickly rushed over to pull him away, "Calm down, Gilbert."

"Go away!"

Gilbert violently pushed Kelvin away.

Then, he flashed a sardonic smile at Kisa, "You've never stayed put. Never. Look at you. You managed to make my good friend and assistant listen to your orders and cooperate with you while I was completely kept in the dark. Hah... Haha... I've underestimated you."

Meanwhile, Kisa felt the feeling of suffocation grow stronger and stronger.

Her usually calm emotions instantly turned into fear.

    After some deliberation, Kelvin pursed his lips and said, "All the surveillance in this home has been disabled. It is certain that someone wants to hurt Mrs. Kooper Sr., but we don't know who. We also can't be sure that this perpetrator is the same person who hurt grandma five years ago.""It really isn't me," Sharon grabbed Gilbert's arm and cried. "I overheard Kelvin say that grandma was going to wake soon. I came over to stay in her room so that someone would be there when she woke. I even knocked on your door, but you didn't answer. Then, they rushed in and said that I was going to harm grandma when I was clearly trying to adjust her pillows for her."Gilbert did not say a thing, but from the way he looked at Sharon, Kisa knew that he would rather trust Sharon than her, not because her words were not sincere enough, but simply because Kisa wasn't the one that he favored."I think it'll be better for us to ask Davian about the person who knocked him out when he wakes up," Kelvin

    Kisa's whole body was shivering with anticipation."What are you guys doing? My sister is crazy. She's very dangerous. We should tie her up!" Sharon yelled.On the other hand, Kisa stared at her grandmother's hand while her whole body tensed up.Gilbert stared at Kisa's back, and his heart tightened when he caught a glimpse of her bloody hands. When he was about to walk toward Kisa, she suddenly turned around and said happily, "Grandma moved. I saw her finger twitch."Gilbert froze. He quickly recovered and said coldly, "What kind of game are you playing this time?""I'm telling the truth." Seeing that he didn't believe her, Kisa pulled him over and said, "Look at that hand. Look carefully. Her index finger moved just now.""Enough, sister. You've hurt him enough. You know that he's been looking forward to seeing grandma wake up, but you still try to deceive him again and again. You—""Kelvin!""Come and see! Grandma's fingers twitched!

    Only Sharon stayed put in her chair. She was in fear, digging her fingers into the chair's armrest with both hands."Grandma, you're finally awake," Gilbert held onto his grandmother's hand and cried like a child.Mrs. Kooper Sr., however, felt a little uneasy and dazed after opening her eyes for the first time in five years.She paused for a long time before turning to Gilbert. Her voice was hoarse as she said, "Gilbert… My good grandson, Gilbert…""Grandma, I'm here too. It's Kisa. Look at me," Kisa was so excited that her eyes filled with tears. She was happy that she was lucky enough to see Mrs. Kooper Sr. wake before she died.Mrs. Kooper Sr. turned to look at Kisa when she heard her voice, "Kisa… Yes… I remember… You are Kisa."Sharon could not sit still after seeing how Mrs. Kooper Sr. recognized Gilbert and Kisa. Her hope that Mrs. Kooper Sr. would lose her memory was shattered. When she was planning on how to escape, Mrs. Kooper Sr. sat up from the bed, startled.Sharon

    It was obvious that Davian had just regained consciousness from being knocked out. He touched the back of his neck, looking dazed. "Mrs. Kooper, what happened? I heard they said that Mrs. Kooper Sr. had woken up."Kisa nodded. "Did you see the person who knocked you out?" she asked.The mention of this made Davian angry, "I listened to your instructions and hid in the closet to monitor everything in the room, but there was no movement at all. I had to go to the toilet, so I decided to head out for a bit, but someone hit me in the back of my head with a stick. If I catch whoever did this to me, I'm going to kill them!"Kisa was not surprised at Davian's reply. As she expected, Sharon would never have let him see her when she knocked him out.Davian saw her pained expression, and couldn't help but ask, "Mrs. Kooper, what happened last night? Did you get answers when you questioned Sharon Case? When I was in there, I asked the others, but they didn't even give me a glance."Kisa lowe

    "Enough. I can't believe that you are still trying to deny it. It was my fault that I saw something good in you and gave you the chance to hurt my grandson," Mrs. Kooper Sr. said as she burst into tears of regret.Kisa felt her body freeze up. She shook her head hastily and said, "Grandma, what is happening? You were the one who called me that night and told me that you had something important to ask me. When I arrived, you were already lying on the floor, covered in blood. I did not push you. You know that it wasn't me. Why are you saying that it's me?"Kisa did not know what to do. Even the grandmother who had loved her the most was actually blaming her.Mrs. Kooper Sr.'s face grew colder and colder, "Nonsense. I didn't call you that night. It's clear that you held a grudge against my grandson for not loving you, so you took it out on me. Thankfully, I'm tougher than I look.""N-No, it's not like that…"Sharon took this as an opportunity to say, "Sister, I can't believe it was y

    Kisa's words were filled with sorrow and despair.And Gilbert only felt a twitch in his heart.But the thought of his grandmother being in a coma for five years and almost could never wake up again, the hatred in his heart started to boil again.Davian was a little moved by those words. He turned to Gilbert and cautiously said, " Mr. Gilbert, could there be some misunderstanding there? Ma'am looks like...""I'm the victim, why would I be lying?"Before Davian could even finish speaking, Mrs. Kooper Sr. let out a cold snort.Davian shook his head in fright, "No, no, I did not mean that. I... I...""Davian, did my sister buy your loyalty, or do you actually like her?"Sharon immediately seized the opportunity to lead the topic away.Davian was speechless as he spat back, "What nonsense are you talking about? I just felt that there's something weird about this.""What's weird about that? Grandma was the victim and she knew what happened then best. Since Grandma said it was big s

    Mrs. Kooper Sr.'s expression immediately changed, "What are you trying to imply there? Are you suspecting Grandma of lying?"Gilbert shook his head.He demurred for a moment before softly said, "She had been waiting for you to wake up all this time, and she was happier than anyone else when you did. Could she really be the person who pushed you?"Mrs. Kooper Sr. was taken aback for a moment.But soon, hatred soon appeared on her face again, "She was just pretending. You always told me that she was good at pretending and lying, and that I should not fall for her lies. And now look at you, you've fallen for her trickery. I can only imagine what sort of poison she had fed you for the past five years.""She was dead for the past five years."Mrs. Kooper Sr. was stunned, "What do you mean?"Gilbert shook his head and said sorrowfully, "Grandma, you should be able to tell how she had suffered for the past five years, so much so that she's almost no longer human."Mrs. Kooper Sr. tugg

    Sharon was shocked, "What do you mean, Mom?""Remember how I left the beauty agency much earlier that night?"Sharon nodded.Carolyn gleefully said, "I actually went to look for that old hag first, and I even told her a little secret. It is because of that secret that the old hag started to hate that mutt, Kisa to the bone."Sharon's curiosity was immediately piqued, "What secret is it? Tell me, Mom.""Since it's a secret, the fewer people that knows about it the better.""What? You're not even telling me this much, am I even your daughter then?" Carolyn immediately became serious. "You don't understand, the more people know of this secret, the more disadvantaged I'll be. In any case, as long as that old Kooper family hag knows about it, Kisa will no longer have a backing and it will be difficult for her to return to the Kooper family. When the time comes, the position of the mistress of the Kooper family is all but yours."Although Sharon was still curious about the secret, w

    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
