"Kisa." Lea called out in shock.Gilbert was so shaken up that he subconsciously caught Kisa as she fell. "Wh-What is wrong with you?"Perhaps even he himself did not notice his trembling voice.Kisa stared at him dead in the eye and forced a smile on her wan face. The crimson bloodstain at the corners of her lips looked horrifying. "I'm finally dying. Gilbert, are you happy now?"Gilbert subconsciously shook his head, eagerly trying to say something, but the woman in his arms slowly closed her eyes. All he heard was Lea's crying and screaming and Sharon's voice calling for a doctor. As if he did not hear all that, he carried the woman in her arms and ran straight to the emergency room. He accidentally knocked down many people as he ran, looking like a madman in the eyes of onlookers.The emergency room light came on, and he was barred from entering.Sharon pulled him to sit on the bench and comforted him. "Kisa has always been in good health. Don't worry too much."He did not r
"Where is she? Where is Kisa?"Having soothed Andrew, Gilbert came over and saw the emergency room door wide open. There was not a single doctor inside, and Kisa was nowhere to be found.Sharon looked at the anxiety in Gilbert's eyes, and her heart was filled with jealousy. However, her expression remained gentle. "Take it easy, Gilbert. Andrew's condition—"Gilbert hissed at Sharon, not waiting for her to finish. "I'm asking about Kisa?"She was stunned. Gilbert had never yelled, not even raised his voice at her like that, since she was young. Jealousy filled her heart.But she was a natural actress. She could maintain that gentle and innocent look even if she was jealous to the point of frenzy. "Don't worry, Gilbert. Kisa is fine.""How can she be fine after vomiting so much blood?" Gilbert was frantic and searched everywhere outside the emergency room. While this was going on, Kisa's attending doctor came over."Glad you're here. I was looking for you. The patient you just br
Outside the Kooper residence, Lea kept rapping on the gate and shouting Gilbert's name.No one responded to her. After an hour, some bodyguards came out to chase her away.Lea cried out in despair. She should have known better that Gilbert, who hated Kisa and wanted her dead so much, would not save Kisa. It was whimsy to think that he would help. She regretted coming to beg that cold-blooded man.Behind a window on the second floor, Sharon watched with a smug on her face as Lea went.'She wants to save that woman? Heck! Dream on!'Shortly after Lea had left, a car drove into the compound. George carefully carried Andrew, who had just been discharged from the hospital, into the house, with Ada following along.As he came into the house, Sharon greeted him and said gently, "You can just leave Andrew to me.""It is alright, Ms. Case. I will just carry him to his room." George avoided Sharon and headed upstairs.Sharon narrowed her eyes. 'You old coot. I will kick you out of here w
After George finished, he did not hear Gilbert's response for a while.So he could not help but glance in the rearview mirror, only to see Gilbert had closed his eyes with no expression on his face. No one knew what was on his mind. George pursed his lips, wondering if Gilbert really did not care about his wife at all now.As it was a matter of life and death, he could not help but speak again. "Mr. Kooper, she—""Has she died yet?""Huh?"It struck George dumb when Gilbert suddenly spoke. "Who died?""Kisa."Gilbert's tone was nonchalant. He did not sound worried at all.Suddenly, George was at a loss for words."Heck!" Gilbert suddenly sneered. "Kisa is addicted to playing victims now. Next time, if you come across that woman, tell her I'm willing to give her a hand and save her the trouble of pretending if Kisa is really so eager to die."'It is ridiculous. I haven't even given her the comeuppance, and she has come to make trouble again. She is really addicted to cheating
Kisa had a long, long dream. She dreamed of her skipping class and climbing over the school wall, ending up falling into the arms of a good-looking teenager. His first reaction was to throw her to the ground. Kisa later learned that the teenager's name was Gilbert Kooper.Kisa's mother, on her deathbed, told Kisa that if she met someone named Gilbert during her lifetime, she must guard him with her life because she owed him. She did not understand what her mother said, but because of her mother's words, she started to please the teenager named Gilbert in every way.It was just that Gilbert did not like her and always bad-mouthed her. But in her dream, even though Gilbert was annoyed with her, she still felt happy.Despite him being annoyed with her, he never went back on his words when he promised her something.There was no aching despair in the dream until blood slowly flooded her dream. A child was calling for his mother, his voice choking with sorrow and helplessness. She searc
"Did you get addicted to acting, so much so that you even prepared your tears in advance after guessing I would come?"Gilbert snickered as he looked into Kisa's teary red eyes."It is just a pity that even if you cry yourself to death in front of me, I won't spare you a glance. Save your breath and stop acting pathetic in front of me." The thought of her faking her dying that day made him sick and outraged.Kisa forced a self-deprecating smile. 'He forever feels that I'm faking my tears as if I wouldn't feel sad or upset. But when Sara was in tears, he clearly felt sorry for her. That's the difference between love and hate.'Unyielding, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. "What are you doing here?""Heck! Don't you even care to ask about Andrew after causing Andrew to fall sick? You are really cold-blooded and selfish."Kisa felt uptight at the mention of Andrew, yet her tone of voice was unconcerned when she said, "That's your child, not mine.""You—" Gilbert was
He saw Kisa holding to the wall, coughing in pain.Gilbert looked impatient and sneered. "When did you become so frail? I have said it many times; there is really no need to pretend in front of me. It won't work."Kisa quietly wiped away the blood from the corner of her mouth, looking at him with a forced smile on her pale face. "When did you acquire such a sharp eye that you could tell I'm faking it every time?" Her mockery was obvious.Gilbert snorted and got into the car.Kisa calmed her breathing down and fought back the severe pain in her lungs as she walked over slowly. He started the car as soon as she got in. She was caught off guard and thrown back into the seat, causing her to cough violently. All that filled the cabin was the sound of her coughing.Gilbert was annoyed. He sneered. "That is a realistic cough. Those who are uninformed would think you had a real lung disease."Kisa clenched the hand at her side and tried hard to fight back the tingle in her throat. Her lu
There was a black shirt hanging in the empty closet.Kisa frowned, wondering why there was a black shirt. Judging by its size, it should belong to Gilbert. She took it out.'There were no Gilbert's belongings in this room back then. So when was this shirt brought in here? Did the maid hang it here by mistake?' It baffled her, but she did not harp on it for too long. She just put the shirt on. It was so big that it looked like an oversized dress on her body. And it smelled of tobacco, too.The thought that Gilbert might have worn this shirt before made her feel uncomfortable. But she could only put up with it while she went to see if her old clothes were still in the bedroom. She wondered if Gilbert had sent someone to pack her belongings in the basement. If he had not, she would have no clothes to change into.She opened the bathroom door and hurriedly ran to the closet. As she opened the closet, it was full of her old clothes. It surprised her that none of her previous clothes h
