"Hey, how come when you get involved with someone, it always ends with a disaster?" Kelvin glanced at Gilbert's bloodstained chest, then looked at Kisa meaningfully.Kisa stood by with her eyes downcast, her face expressionless. She knew the 'someone' Kelvin mentioned was her. But she did not care, as Kelvin did not like her, anyway.Gilbert was depressed and walked straight into the house without a word. Kisa followed in silence.Kelvin stared in wonder as the two went and then asked Davian, "What's going on with them?"Davian sighed helplessly. "People say that two stubborn people are not suitable together; this is so true."Kelvin was none the wiser. "What do you mean?""Ask Mr. Kooper. It's been a tiring trip." With that, Davian drove off in his car.In the bedroom--Kelvin marveled as he tended to Gilbert's wound. "This is a deep wound. If it was just a bit off, I would have to visit you at your grave this time next year."Gilbert still said not a word, his expression ten
It was Andrew."Ma'am, you're finally back." Andrew ran in excitedly and hugged her leg. He furrowed his little brows when he saw the bottle of medication in her hand. "Are you sick?"Kisa stroked his head. "It's fine. Just a minor one."Andrew shook his head, extraordinarily anxious. "George always says that a minor illness can grow into a big one. I have got to tell Daddy." He ran out at once, so quickly that Kisa could not stop him.She forced a smile, knowing that even if he told Gilbert about her condition, it would not make a difference. He would just think she was pretending, trying to earn sympathy.Andrew had just left when Kelvin came in. He had his arms around his chest, and his tone was stern. "Why didn't you just be a little more ruthless and kill Gilbert?"She snickered as she knew he was accusing her of stabbing Gilbert. "Had I killed him, you guys would still have cut me to pieces." She then ignored him and swallowed the pills in her hand.Kelvin glanced at the p
"Please tell me honestly how much time I still have."Thinking about the scene just now, Kelvin had a hard-to-describe feeling inside him. He thought for a long while before answering, "One year at most."'One year?' Kisa laughed and fell on the bed with tears in her eyes. 'What could I do in a year? Would it be enough to find out who hurt Grandma, or would it be enough to avenge the prison sentence and the murder of my son? I could not even get Howard's role back, let alone these two things.' At this moment, she found herself unable to do anything but wait for her final moment. She curled up in bed, letting the pain of her illness torment her tattered body.She thought of her mother, the days when she and her mother depended on each other. They were poor at the time, but she had the world's warmest love of her mother. Unlike now, she was all alone, dragging her sick body to suffer the cold of the world. How she wished she could turn back the time.The scene of her mother's death w
Kisa was startled and looked at the bedside instruments in a panic.The electrocardiogram was flashing a red alarm light. As the nerve-racking alarm sounded, doctors and nurses rushed at once.Kisa was so anxious that her face turned pale. She asked a doctor, "What's wrong with Mrs. Kooper Sr.?"Suddenly, a powerful force grabbed her by the wrist. When she looked up, her eyes met Gilbert's icy, resentful gaze. She did not even know when Gilbert had come over."Kelvin, save my grandmother." With that, Gilbert yanked Kisa out of the room and dumped her unceremoniously onto the snow. He hated her to the core. "Why won't you leave her alone after what Grandma has become?""I did not. I did nothing to your grandmother.""Grandma's condition has always been stable. If you hadn't done something to her, how would the instrument have sounded its alarm?"His furious roar left her speechless. Kisa shook her head helplessly, as she had done five years ago, unable to defend herself."Kisa,
'Why is there so much blood on the snow outside the door?' Gilbert was shocked and rushed out with no hesitation.Outside the door, the woman was nowhere to be seen, just a large puddle of shockingly gross blood on the snow.Kelvin and Andrew had also come running out after him. Andrew tugged at Gilbert's coat and asked anxiously, "Daddy, where did Ma'am go? Is this blood really Ma'am's?""No." Gilbert replied patiently.But Andrew was apparently not convinced. "If it's not Ma'am's, then whose is it? I just saw you dragging her out, Daddy. What did you do to her? I want Ma'am." He started to whimper."That is enough."Gilbert bellowed, but his eyes were on the puddle of blood.When he saw Gilbert's bad mood, Kelvin hurriedly took Andrew, who was on the verge of tears, over to him and said in a gentle voice, "Don't worry. Your ma'am will be fine." With that, he asked the maid to take him inside."Kelvin, do you think the blood is real?" Gilbert asked in a sudden murmur as he sta
[A woman resembling the wife of GK Pictures's CEO has an affair with an actor.]The headline caught his attention, and a look of murderous intent flickered in his eyes. Below the headline were several pictures, the first few of which showed the snowy ground outside the villa as the background, and in one of the pictures, a young man, who was none other than Howard, was carrying Kisa in his arms. The last picture was a comparison of two photos: Kisa's current state versus her look from five years ago. The two photos had been deliberately zoomed in, and those two pairs of eyebrows looked almost identical.Seeing the article in front of him, Gilbert tore up the paper, his handsome face grave. "Davian!" he called out.Davian came rushing in, looking a little groggy, obviously having just woken up.Gilbert glared at him. "I'm surprised you didn't deal with it first when news like this came out."Davian looked at the scraps of newspaper on the floor, his face turning pale with anxiety.
'Where is this place? Hadn't I fainted after Gilbert threw me on the snow? And who saved me?'Kisa sat up in bed slowly and looked at her surroundings cautiously. At that moment, there was the sound of a door opening. Startled, she scrambled to lie down and pretend to sleep. As the door opened, someone she was familiar with walked in, but she could not see who the person was because of the poor lighting. It was only when the person switched on the light in the room that she saw it was Howard."It is you?" She exclaimed in surprise.Howard looked at her with relief. "You are awake. I brought you some food. Get up and eat it while it is warm."Kisa got out of bed, puzzled. "Why am I here? Where is this place?""I was walking through a snowy field when I found you passed out on the ground, so I brought you here." Howard looked around and continued. "This isn't my place. I had to put you in this out-of-the-way place because of the morning news. Otherwise, those reporters would have go
Kisa stepped back in horror but was quickly surrounded. She was wearing a hat, and her face was covered with a scarf, but the reporters still recognized her.At that moment, the cloudy sky was raining, but the reporters did not seem to be bothered by it. They surrounded her and kept asking questions."Miss Watson, are you really the Kisa Watson back then?""Does Mr. Kooper know your true identity? Did Mr. Kooper forgive you for what you did to him back then?""Miss Watson, please answer. What is your relationship with Howard?""Miss Watson, what happened in that fire in prison back then, and how did you survive it?""You deliberately put out the news that you were the wife of GK's CEO. Why are you refusing to admit it now?"...The camera flashes, and the noise of pursuing reporters made her dizzy. Kisa tried to get away, but there was no way out. She covered her ears and hissed for them to stop filming and asking questions, but her yell was soon drowned out by the noise of the
