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
Kisa somehow had climbed onto a large boulder, still holding the half stalk of green foxtail which she had bent into a ring."Gilbert, look at the ring."She waved the ring made from the green foxtail at him, smiling with her eyes looking like a crescent moon, just as she had when he first saw her.He liked her smile best when she was young; those clean eyes looked wonderful as a crescent moon. But it had been a long time since he last saw her smile like that. Under the dim streetlight, that clean smile seemed to overlap with the one in his memory, causing his heart to pound involuntarily."This is the ring I made. Is it beautiful?" Kisa put the straw ring on her ring finger, and then spread her fingers to show him.Gilbert pursed his lips and only spoke after a long while. "It is beautiful.""Yeah, it is beautiful." Kisa seemed happy. She rubbed the straw ring on her finger and said, as if to herself, "I made one for you at that time, but you threw it away."Gilbert frowned and
"Aaaaah!" Before Gilbert could rush over to catch her, Kisa missed a step and fell off the boulder. "That hurts..." She got up, rubbed her ankle, and cried at him with great anguish. "My foot hurts so much."Gilbert walked up to her and did not know what to say upon seeing her face. After a long while of fighting back his anger, he gritted his teeth and snapped, "You deserve it."Kisa' felt even more aggrieved. She lowered her head, kneaded her ankle, and said nothing for a long time.Gilbert looked up at the sky and asked, holding back his temper, "Can you still stand up?" 'I was wrong. I shouldn't have brought her here and should not have allowed her to fool around. I should have driven her back, or to Jensen's place, instead of inviting trouble for myself.' But no matter how much he regretted it, he had already brought her here. So he could not bring himself to leave her here alone. Gilbert was getting irritated. He smashed his cigarette on the ground, stubbed it out with his foo
'She isn't pretending, is she? She really sprained her ankle?' He lifted her foot while thinking.Kisa, still angry, made a move to pull back her foot, but Gilbert held her calf tightly, not letting her escape."Don't move!" He barked.Kisa felt more and more aggrieved, and cried out. "I don't need you to care about me. Let go of me. Who are you? I don't need you to take care of me."Gilbert's face darkened. He really disliked Kisa when she was drunk. She was a nuisance when she got drunk. It would be better if she slept after getting drunk. Instead, she behaved like a child, so unreasonably. He ignored her cries and just took off her shoes and socks. When he rolled up a small part of her pants, he gasped at the sight of her swollen ankle. 'No wonder she screamed in pain. I thought she was faking it. In that case, she has been holding back the pain when she walked over just now. She did not make a sound, even if she broke out in a cold sweat in pain. Heh, she is really stubborn.'
He pushed open the bathroom door, only to see Kisa lying on the floor in tears. It angered him to see this. "What are you doing again? Can't you just sit on the couch?" He was clearly impatient and reproachful.Feeling wronged, Kisa just bit her lip and said nothing.Neither Gilbert said anything more. He walked in to carry her. The moment he turned around, he got a glimpse of the urine in the toilet bowl. He was stunned and subconsciously looked at the woman in his arms. "Y-You came in here because you needed to release yourself, and that was why..."Kisa bit her lip, not saying anything and not looking at him.He pursed his lips and then asked, "Did the fall hurt?" He was asking a stupid question; if it did not hurt, she would not have cried.The woman still bit her lip and said nothing.Gilbert let out a light sigh and carried her out. Once again, he placed her on the couch, but this time, his actions were much gentler than before."Luckily, I always have all kinds of medicat
"Mr. Kooper, you are still awake? H-Have I disturbed you?" Davian let out a servile at the other end of the phone.Gilbert rolled his eyes. "Of course you have disturbed me. You are becoming worse and worse as an assistant."Davian's smile froze. "T-Then I will leave you to it and will report back to you tomorrow."Gilbert stopped teasing him and said in a deep voice, "Get down to business."Davian stopped laughing and said with a serious face, "Didn't you ask me to investigate Adrien Tanner? I have found something.""Say it.""Adrien is the Tanner family's eldest son, grew up smart with good business acumen. He graduated from a prestigious university and as soon as he graduated, he started his own business to prove his ability. Later, he took over all the business of the Tanner family with his own merit. He is very influential in the circle, and is the best in the business world. As for his relationship history, I found nothing. He doesn't seem to be interested in women. He is n
