Gilbert was the first to open his mouth when he saw Kisa was not talking.Kisa sneered, "Really? Then I really have to congratulate you guys; always so in love. Let me give you a suggestion." Gilbert stared at her as she let out a nonchalant smile. "Why don't you just divorce me to make a clean break and marry that woman? I'm sure she will be thrilled. It will be more useful than any surprise."'I told her today that you had prepared a surprise for me, but she was not upset and wished us a lifetime of love and happiness. I asked her why she wasn't upset, and she said she had Jensen and no reason for her to get upset.' With Sharon's words echoing in his ears, Gilbert's face darkened, and he fought back his emotions and asked, "You are really not angry at all that I surprised that woman?"Kisa laughed. "Why should I be angry? You can surprise whoever you want. Why should I be upset?""Aren't you curious about what I'm surprising her with?""No."Kisa's unconcerned look finally upse
The sullen expression on Gilbert's face vanished. The speed of change was as quick as lightning. He stood up at once and held her shoulders, slightly emotional. "So, you're jealous of her too?""Uh-huh." Kisa nodded her head haphazardly. She thought she could say whatever she wanted as long as he was happy.Without the dismal look, he looked at her with affection. "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you were upset? I thought—""What is the point of telling you earlier? What if you use it to mock me?""You fool." Gilbert sighed softly, and he suddenly hugged her tightly in his arms.Kisa was wide-eyed as she could vaguely sense he was doting on her. 'It is an illusion. It must be an illusion.' She told herself in her mind. "So..." Kisa pushed him away gently, "You are not angry anymore?""Then you just said you cared about Jensen—""That was a lie. I said it on purpose to piss you off."The gloom had gone entirely from Gilbert's face, and he smiled and shook his head. "Okay, I'
Feeling that Gilbert was about to get angry, Kisa decided to stay silent and not push the issue any further. She merely smiled and said to him, " Thanks."Gilbert coldly huffed and furrowed his menacing eyebrows. Kisa faked a smile as she broke loose from his grip, " It's getting late. I'll be returning to my room first. You should rest early too."Gilbert chuckled and spoke to her from behind, " Are you only going to treat me decently when you need something from me? "He had felt something off when Kisa started treating him so well. Turns out she had something to ask of him. She had been like this from the start. Her kindness toward him had always harbored hidden intentions behind it. This was the part of her he hated the most, yet it was the part of her that he was the most helpless against.Kisa stopped in her tracks and did not speak. Gilbert then pulled at his tie irritatingly. He leaned back onto the sofa and quietly stared at the maroon tie in his hands. His furrowed brows
The man gazed toward the newspaper as she predicted.However, the calmness on his face was unexpected to her. Even though he was not the one that reduced Sharon into that state, Sharon was still an artist from GK Pictures despite what they say. He did not even have a reaction when having such a scandal.Kisa was starting to doubt whether Gilbert cared about GK Pictures's reputation. Gilbert put the breakfast for the three kids in front of them first before asking Lea, " Have you eaten?"His politeness was unsettling. Lea subconsciously shook her head and sat up warily. Gilbert passed her a sandwich and a glass of milk.Lea was flattered, but she gaped at him with a wide-eyed expression. She hurriedly shook her head, "No, no, no need, no need, no need..." Lea saying "no" repeatedly showed that she was shocked to the core.Gilbert found it funny. And portioned Kisa's breakfast with adept movements while speaking nonchalantly, "Why? Does the breakfast I made seem that difficult to sw
Kisa pulled her thoughts back. She was thinking of the photo. Sharon seemed furious and flustered, which made it look very odd. Gilbert prepared a surprise for Sharon during that time, which wasn't a lie. However, the surprise was not a treat but a punishment.'Could it be that Gilbert was taking revenge on Sharon for that night?' As she thought about it here, she then quickly shook her head.That was impossible. The subject of the matter should be reversed. Gilbert hated her and always sided with Sharon. How could he possibly retaliate against Sharon for her? After not getting any results from thinking for a long time, she simply chose to not think about it.Either way, this issue was not related to her at all. Lea searched for any information and comments on the news during the journey.She spoke to Kisa, "Kisa, that's not good. A big crowd of netizens are commenting on all platforms, saying the villa is Gilbert's. They even said Sharon was wearing her clothes like that when she
Sharon's hesitant look validated all the reporter's speculations."Ms. Case, are you saying that the villa belongs to Mr. Kooper?" Another reporter asked.Sharon hung her head with her face full of embarrassment and did not say a thing. Her expression only stoked the reporter's imagination further."Ms. Case, what did you and Mr. Kooper do in the villa?""Ms. Case, Mr. Kooper obviously did the deed with you. Does he have any plans on marrying you?""Ms. Case, what exactly was Mr. Kooper's surprise?""Sigh, all of you should stop asking me. If there is any question, then asking Mr. Kooper himself would be better," Sharon replied, all bashful-like.This way, even if she did not say anything, everyone would deem that she and Gilbert had done some shameful acts in that villa. Looking at her convincing facial expressions toward the reporters, she felt even surer that the news had all been orchestrated by Sharon herself.However, she still could not figure out why Sharon had looked s
Kisa pulled her lips into a smile, " That's great. If you're inviting me, I'll definitely go!"Hearing Kisa say this, Sharon grew even more smug."Heh, did you know that the surprise Gilbert gave me last night was superromantic? It was a candle-lit dinner full of sweet talk.""Really?" Kisa chuckled sarcastically, " How come the situation I saw was you being driven out?"Sharon's expression changed, " What are you blathering about? Gilbert treats me so gently. Why in the world would I be driven out?""Oh really? Then did Gilbert lie to me?" Kisa questioned in turn purposely.Sharon's expression turned white for just an instant before she quickly said, " That's right, he lied to you. He did lie to you. He might've wanted to deceive you and planned to make you fall for his affectionate scheme.""If it was truly like you said, he wouldn't want to marry you now. What a shame, you risked your honor and reputation for this show, yet you might not get the result you want," Kisa said.
"Pfft!" Lea instantly made a spitting sound and spoke to Kisa, " Look at that woman. She's smiling like a succubus. Her voice line is filled with a deathly cringe. Do men like this kind of thing? Kisa, when you talk to Mr. Kooper, you should do it like this. Mr. Kooper would definitely spoil you to no end."Kisa was speechless. Where did Lea find the confidence and such certainty?Gilbert's gaze skipped over Sharon and looked at Kisa. Before he could say anything, a swarm of reporters popped out from nowhere and immediately surrounded him and Sharon. Sharon chuckled smugly.Under the pressing questions of the reporters, she would not believe that Gilbert would not marry her. Kisa did not want to join the crowd and was prepared to leave.Lea quickly held onto her, " It's still early. Let us watch this first and see how Mr. Kooper will explain the news today.""What's so interesting about it?" Kisa said, uninterested. With the time in hand, it would be better to go home to sleep."
