Jensen turned to look out the window. Feeling depressed and wanting to say something, but good sense told him not to. In the end, he said nothing and started the car again. "Let me take you to the hospital."Kisa nodded, clutching the seat belt in her hand, not making a sound. She still hoped that Gilbert was not behind the fire, for no other reason than because of Andrew and Ada, whom she genuinely loved even though they were not her children. She did not want to go to the point where she and Gilbert were killing each other, as that would be too devastating to the two children.When she arrived at the hospital, Jensen did not take her to see Mia. Instead, he brought her to the surgery clinic to look at her ankle. The surgeon was an older doctor. He gently squeezed Kisa's red and swollen ankle and shook his head.Jensen instantly frowned and asked in a grave voice, "How is it? Is it serious?""Serious is an understatement. If she doesn't take care of it from now on, I'm afraid she
The doctor massaged Kisa's ankle with his unique technique, and Kisa almost cried out in pain.Jensen looked on, anxious. He wanted to ask the doctor to be gentler, but was afraid that it would be ineffective. Kisa was sweating from the pain as if she had gone through a torture."The fluid in your ankle has to be pushed out of your ankle. When the swelling subsides, I will have to see if your bones are also injured," the doctor said, turning around to dispense the prescription.Jensen took a tissue to wipe the sweat from Kisa's forehead. "Are you okay?" Jensen sounded anxious.Kisa nodded. "I'm still holding up."Jensen stroked her head, feeling sorry for her. "You must be more careful next time. Don't be so restless."Kisa looked nonplussed. 'He thought I was as restless as a child, so I fell?' Just as she was about to say something, a teasing half laugh came from the doorway."I thought you were here to see me. It turns out that you hurt your foot, too. Mia was leaning against
"Kisa," Mia suddenly called out to Kisa.Kisa subconsciously looked up at her. "What is it?""There really are so many coincidences in this world," Mia said. Kisa looked at her, not knowing what she meant by that. Mia continued. "Look, I broke my leg in a car accident, and then you sprained your ankle. Who do you think Jensen should take care of?"'She seems to have misunderstood me, thinking I sprained my ankle on purpose so that Jensen could take care of me.' Kisa looked at Mia with a serious face and tried to explain. "I didn't sprain my ankle on purpose. I was drunk last night and accidentally fell off a boulder."Jensen finally could no longer stand it and looked at Mia. "That is enough."Mia smiled and leaned back, her face still gorgeous even in the hospital ward. She smiled gently, with a hint of sadness in her eyes. "I almost died yesterday. You have never been gentle with me like you have been with her." 'I can't stand it anymore. I had thought that I would feel content
Just as Davian wanted to curse, it shocked him to see the person in the wheelchair. 'M-Mrs. Kooper?' He looked at the person in the wheelchair for a long time, and after he was sure that it was indeed Kisa, he hurriedly said to Gilbert, "Mr. Kooper, look. I can't believe that it is Mrs. Kooper. Why is she in a wheelchair?"The sudden stop of the car did not make Gilbert look up. Only after hearing Davian finish speaking did he raise his eyes and glance at the front of the vehicle. He was expressionless as he saw the woman in the wheelchair as if she were a stranger.Davian took a cautious look at Gilbert and could not help but ask, "Mr. Kooper, wasn't Ms. Becker with you last night? What is going on here? Why is she in a wheelchair?""What? You suspect I broke her leg?" Gilbert grunted coldly.Davian quickly shook his head and kept his mouth shut, not daring to ask any more questions.In front of the car, Kisa was also startled. She had just crossed the street with her wheelchair
Gilbert had the entertainment paper spread out in front of him. Since he saw Kisa just now, the pages stopped turning and he might not have gone through the news in front of him. Davian really wanted to go to the spa. If Gilbert was not going, he, as an assistant, would be awkward to go alone. Having not gotten an answer from Gilbert for a long time, Davian shrugged and said, "It is only getting colder and colder from now on. Going to a spa is good for your health."Gilbert leaned back in the chair, looking out the window in a daze. "You may go if you want to."'What is he talking about? Mr. Tanner is inviting him. How can I, a mere assistant, go alone?' Davian said, "By the way, Mr. Tanner has also invited Mrs. Kooper Sr."Gilbert looked at him with a frown. "He has also invited Grandma?""Yeah. Mrs. Kooper Sr. told me about it this morning, and she is planning to bring Emma, your last blind date, with her."Gilbert pursed his lips, not looking the least bit happy.Davian glance
There was an elderly woman about the age of his grandmother and a middle-aged couple sitting in the living room. Sharon was coming out of the kitchen with some dishes. They were those people whom Gilbert least wanted to meet.As he turned around to leave, Madalyn stepped in front of him. "Since you are back, sit down, and have a good meal with the elders.""Hi, Gilbert. I cooked this meal myself," Sharon said as she walked up to him.Gilbert did not even glance at her but sat down silently on the couch.Standing outside, Davian glanced at the scene inside the house and thought, 'This is a freaking trap.' Just as he was deep in thought, George came out and said, "Davian, your boss asked you to stay for dinner."Davian quickly shook his head. "No, no, no, no. I have something to do. I'm leaving. Please tell Mr. Kooper for me," Davian said and got into the car in a flash.George looked at the car speed away and shook his head in amusement. 'Why are they all afraid to have dinner wit
Davian's heart skipped a beat. 'Could it be...Ms. Becker?' The car had passed the person in the wheelchair when he thought of that. He then looked back hastily and said to himself, 'Oh my, it really is Ms. Becker.'Davian quickly parked the car on the side of the road, got out of the car, and walked toward the person in the wheelchair. "Ms. Becker..."Kisa turned her head subconsciously when she heard the familiar voice. Not only did she see Davian running toward her, she also saw the silver-gray car behind him. She frowned. 'That's Davian's car. I've seen him drive it before. No wonder it looked so familiar. If that is Davian's car, does that mean Gilbert was also in the vehicle when he almost ran into me just now?''It would not be that coincidental, would it?' Kisa pursed her lips and tried to comfort herself secretly. 'There's no way I'd run into that man every time I'm in a terrible state.' Just as she was thinking about it, Davian had stood before her. "Ms. Becker, why aren't
Davian froze. "But I missed you, didn't I? Now I'm driving you home, so we're even," he said with a smile."Gilbert was in the car, right?" Kisa asked again.Davian nodded subconsciously. "Yeah. If he didn't stop me, I would have gotten out of the car to talk to you and give you a ride.'He stopped him from coming to talk to me?' Kisa laughed at herself. She looked outside the window and did not say a word."Mr. Kooper said that you're pretentious for sitting in a wheelchair after such a minor fall, but I don't believe that, Ms. Becker. Tell me, it was a bad fall, huh? Have you visited the doctor's yet?""I did. The doctor said it wasn't too serious and should be fine in two days," Kisa leaned back and replied. "Like I said, the wheelchair is just so everyone can see how weak I am and pity me."Davian was speechless at Kisa's thought process because it was something that normal people would not understand. "Ms. Becker, you should stop using this method to solicit sympathy in the
