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
She was holding a walking stick and her complexion looked much better than when she had just awoken.But the way she looked at Kisa seethed with disgust and hatred.She slammed the walking stick on to the floor and said sternly to Gilbert, "Why is this woman still here? Didn't I told you to throw her out?""She just only woke up; her body is still weak.""So what? Throw her out, now. Seeing her pisses me off.""Grandma..." Gilbert was conflicted. "You didn't treat her like that in the past.""That was because I didn't know her true vicious side of her. Now that I'm awake, I will not allow her to step foot into the Kooper residence so that she will never stain our floors ever again."Gilbert's expression turned slightly gloomy as he responded stubbornly, "I will not chase her out now. At least wait until she's feeling better."When Mrs. Kooper Sr. heard that, she got angry, "You unfilial whelp, she did that to me and still you're protecting her? Why? You really fell for her?""
Gilbert froze as he gave her a pained look.Yet her expression was even more pained than his, "Don't you forget, she was the one who hurt me. Do you really want me to die by her hands before you're satisfied?"Gilbert clenched his fist tightly but when he heard what his grandma said in the end, a sense of powerlessness that he could not put to words welled up within him.The Case residence.Christopher ran into the house soaking wet as he said with a puzzled tone, "Strange, Mrs. Kooper Sr. actually chased Kisa out of the Kooper residence."Carolyn tossed the magazine away as she snorted, "What? You're taking pity of that mutt?""Of course not!" Christopher walked over as he dried himself. "I'm just curious. Didn't that old hag liked her?""That's because she was the culprit that pushed that old hag down the stairs.""What? How could that be?"Carolyn's voice turned shrill, "Why not? She's an ungrateful mutt! I tell you, no taking pity of her. You are not to help her even if sh
Sharon frowned at seeing the face of the woman in front of her turn pale. She said viciously, "What are you doing? I'm telling you—I can now fix you as easily as killing an ant. Don't try to pull any tricks in front of me. Otherwise— Aaaaaah!"Before Sharon could finish her sentence, a wooden stick hit her hard on the back. She screamed and fell into a puddle on the ground.Kisa snapped back and was ready to run. Just as she spun around, she felt a dull pain shot through the back of her shoulder. She grunted, eyes rolling back, and she passed out at once.The spring rain went on and on, and worries flooded his mind. Gilbert was standing in front of the window looking out at the rain, his upright back exuding an indescribable loneliness and sadness.Davian sorted his hair, which was blown out of shape by the wind and rain, before he came in. "Mr. Kooper.""Is there any news of her whereabouts?""I have sent men to look everywhere, but they haven't found Mrs. Kooper."Gilbert was
"Gilbert, help me, help me. Gilbert." Sharon cried out in fear, her panic-stricken face looking pitiful. On the other hand, Kisa looked calm, as if life and death had nothing to do with her at this moment.Gilbert said nothing, his hand clenching the phone involuntarily.Howard laughed and said, "It seems that you have difficulty in choosing. Maybe I will decide it for you."With that, he whisked the dagger down.Gilbert's entire body tensed up in that instant, his heart in his mouth. The next second, a bloody cut appeared on Sharon's face.It was not until two seconds later that Sharon felt the pain and screamed. Her voice rang out through the phone and echoed throughout the living room on this side. Even Davian could not help but shudder when he heard that, thinking to himself, 'This scream is almost as if a ghost cries.'"Howard, what are you doing? What did you do to my face? Aaaaah! My face, aaaaah!""Does bleeding on the face of such a beauty look good, Mr. Kooper?""You
Sharon screamed again before she could finish her sentence. She was slashed on the face again, and two bloody cuts interlaced into a ghastly X-pattern."Aaaaah, my face! Aaaaah!"Howard grabbed her by the collar and pressed the dagger to her bloodied face.Sharon shut up instantly, staring at him with a trembling body."Do you know why I chose to start with you?"Sharon shook her head, not even daring to breathe.Howard sneered and said, "Because Gilbert cares more about you. Besides, wouldn't it be more exciting to slash you on your pretty face?""No. You are mistaken. Gilbert cares about her, not me. Really."Kisa sneered quietly. 'This woman used to like to show off proudly in front of me, telling me how good Gilbert treated her. Now she would say anything to stay alive.'Howard ran his fingers over the blood on the knife like a mad man. "No matter who he cares more, none of you will escape. Ahh, I suddenly thought of a fun game."Sharon's face turned pale, the two bloody
But Kisa just closed her eyes again and did not make a sound.In desperation, Sharon compromised. "It was because my mom told that old lady a secret."'A secret?' Kisa opened her eyes and looked at her. "What secret?""Find a way to deal with that psycho first. Otherwise, I won't tell you.""Since you won't tell me, forget it," Kisa said nonchalantly and closed her eyes again to fake sleep."You!" Sharon cried out and repeatedly cursed Kisa.Sharon cried in fear as she saw Howard finish his cigarette and walk toward her with a few daggers. "I don't know what the secret is. My mom didn't tell me, really. You deal with that psycho, and as soon as I can get out of here, I will get my mom to tell me the secret."Seeing Kisa not move, Sharon screamed and yelled, "It doesn't matter that your ugly face is ruined, but I'm different. I know you are just jealous of me. You work with that psycho to complete the game to ruin me, right?"Kisa sneered in her mind, astounded by Sharon's imagi
