Adrien shook his head and said, "David disappeared later. More precisely, he disappeared after he found your mom married someone else. No one knows where he went. Some said he was dead, while others said he holed up in places where people didn't know him. Even Jensen didn't know where his dad was."Kisa pursed her lips. 'Indeed, Jensen seldom mentioned his dad. He must have lost contact with his dad after his dad was sent abroad.'"I just left Calthon because of my family's business after David was sent abroad. Things changed when I came back a few years later. I pay some attention to you because you are the daughter of an old friend, and I have been watching you all the time since I knew you were in prison."That day was a coincidence. I had dinner with my friends on New Year's Eve. I happened to pass by the prison when I returned, and I heard the prison was on fire. My heart skipped a beat as I remembered you were still in prison."Mostly everyone in prison was evacuated when I r
Suddenly, Adrien fell silent and smoked quietly.Kisa felt Adrien's facial expression turn grim all of a sudden. She was uptight and stared at him without blinking.Adrien finally spoke again after a long time, "The official explanation back then was that night was too cold. They turned on the heating equipment during the New Year's Eve party, but the equipment malfunctioned suddenly and caused the fire. In other words, the fire that year was an accident.""So, you didn't investigate it?" Kisa felt a little disappointed.She definitely would not believe the fire was an accident because she clearly remembered someones locked her in the room on purpose and were talking outside the door. They implied that Gilbert was behind the fire.Adrien shook his head and said, "There was nothing to investigate as the prison burned into ruins at that moment. But I heard the fire started from your side, and there was no heating equipment at your side. So there were some loopholes in the official e
"Ruthless is just his nature. He can disregard everyone and everything, including his blood kin, as long as they have nothing to do with someone he loves."Adrien lowered his eyes and chuckled, "You're... right."A glint of self-mockery flashed in Adrien's eyes. He looked at Kisa, who was feeling sad, while smoking quietly.A cigarette burned out after a long time.After stubbing out the cigarette, Adrien got up and said, "Don't be too sad about the child. After all, it's over."'Over? I'm afraid I'll never get over this wound for a lifetime. The child was already formed and almost full-term. I can see his appearance, his brows, and his eyes clearly. He looks similar to Gilbert. The appearance of the child has been engraved in my heart. So I can never let go of it for the rest of my life.'Adrien gave Kisa a deep look. He just turned around and walked out quietly without saying anything.Finally, Kisa was the only one left in the private room. She looked at the child in the phot
Before Sharon could finish her words, she was already dumbstruck by Gilbert's words."Gilbert, this place is deserted. You can't kick me out of the car. Otherwise, I won't be able to go back.""That's your business. " Gilbert then shouted, "Davian!""Right away, Mr. Kooper. I'll chase her out of the car," said Davian. He got out of the car and opened the rear door immediately. "Hurry up! Mr. Kooper wants you to get out of the car because of your foul mouth," said Davian with a smirk."Shut up! You're just an assistant. How dare you talk to me in this way?"Davian shrugged triumphantly. "Okay, I'll stop talking about you. But Mr. Kooper wants you to get out of the car. So, you should do so immediately."Sharon felt angry and wronged. She looked at Gilbert again. "Gilbert...""I'll count to three. Your name will disappear from showbiz if you don't get out of the car." Gilbert said coldly, "One, two..."Sharon was angry, her eyes teary. She pushed the door on the other side immedi
Davian was stunned.'Why didn't he think about checking Adrien's background when I first mentioned the cooperation? Why did he want to check it after meeting him today? Besides, the Tanner family is a well-known family in Raworth, as is Adrien. There's nothing to investigate.'Although all these thoughts were in Davian's mind, he still replied respectfully, "Sure."Gilbert tapped the steering and said, "I also want all the information on Adrien, including his education, experience, and past relationship.""Huh? What are you looking for? Mr. Tanner is in his fifties. Do you really suspect Ma'am and him..." Suddenly, Gilbert glanced at him with a gloomy look before he finished.Davian choked in fright and nodded quickly, "Okay, I'll check it tomorrow. No, I'll start checking when I get back today."Gilbert pursed his lips and started the car again. He continued wandering the trails without knowing where he was going.Davian could not help but said, "Mr. Kooper, do you know the w
Gilbert pulled back his hand indifferently.Davian was startled and looked at him. "M-Mr. Kooper?"Gilbert sneered, "Mrs. Kooper? Why are you still addressing her as Mrs. Kooper? Will you also honor her as Mrs. Kooper when I die by her hands one day?"Gilbert's words put Davian in an awkward position. Davian pursed his lips and whispered, "It is not like that. I just think she is drunk, and it is dangerous to hang out alone like this, so...""And what does that have to do with me?" Gilbert snapped, rendering Davian speechless. "If you're worried about her, you may protect her. Just that you don't have to come to GK tomorrow," Gilbert sneered."No, no, no..." Davian hurriedly shook his head vigorously. "I'm not worried about her. Not at all. She is GK's arch rival; why would I worry about her?" Despite saying so, he still looked back involuntarily. Just then, a man came sitting down beside Kisa. Davian was nervous when he saw this. He whispered to Gilbert, "Mr. Kooper, someone seem
"Who are you? Stop the car, I want to get off, I want to get off..." Kisa was in a trance, only to feel that someone had shoved her into the car. She tried to push the door open, but no matter how hard she tried, it would not open. She leaned forward and tugged at the driver's arm. "Stop the car, stop the car..."Gilbert furrowed his brows, and he yanked the woman's hand away with annoyance.But the woman kept coming back up, now tugging at his chest. "Where are you taking me? Stop the car. I don't want to be here. Stop the car."The woman was drunk and did not know how much force she was using when she tugged at his clothes. The wound on his chest hurt and it reminded him of her heartlessness that day. He yanked her hand away again in annoyance. But Kisa did not relent, and kept pulling at him, irritating him. Gilbert's eyes narrowed, and he jerked the steering wheel, making a sharp turn.Because of inertia, Kisa hit her head against the car window. She cried out in pain as she fe
Kisa emptied the content of her stomach all over his pants. Gilbert's face darkened. He couldn't care less that she still felt terrible and vomited, and pushed her away.She fell to the ground. With both hands on the ground, she propped her body up and vomited furiously, wanting to throw up everything in her stomach.Gilbert saw this and was enraged. "I shouldn't have cared. You knew you couldn't drink."After vomiting, she took a breath and said, "Who wants you to care about me? Who the hell are you?"Gilbert gritted his teeth. "Good, then I will leave you here alone." He spun around and got into his car without looking back, then drove off into the darkness of the night.Kisa dropped sitting on the ground, looking in the direction where the car disappeared, and muttered, "Who cares? Who the hell are you? Gilbert? Heh!" She suddenly sneered at herself, "Gilbert couldn't have cared less about me. Gilbert, Gilbert..."She kept murmuring in the chilly night wind, like a castaway. T
