This was because the 'acquaintance' was Jolina. As usual, Kisa was shooting a costume drama while Jolina played her servant.The first time and the last time she saw Jolina was atop Kerrona Hill. She did not have a clear impression of this girl. She remembered nothing about her except that she was together with Peter Webb.Based on her relationship with Peter, why is she only playing a small role as a servant in this drama series?' Kisa wondered to herself, finding it suspicious.Jolina was very quiet. When shooting a scene, she was focused, and when resting, she would sit on the sides, not making a sound. Kisa took a bottle of water and passed it to her.She smiled at Jolina and said, " What a coincidence. I didn't know you were an artist in this production crew."Jolina glanced at her, then took over the bottle, "Thank you."As for the other matters, she did not say anything. Kisa also did not ask any further and merely smiled and walked away.When work ended in the evening, P
Kisa steadied herself, still surprised. She discovered that the person holding her was Gilbert. Gilbert squinted his eyes dangerously and stared coldly at Peter, "Don't you know she's my woman? You dare put your hands on her?""So what? Who told her to be a busybody?" Peter smiled coldly, "You should manage your woman properly. Don't let her meddle in other people's business. Thankfully she met me today. If it was someone else, it wouldn't be as simple as pushing her. She might even be physically hit on her body.""They wouldn't dare." Gilbert's tone was cold.Kisa stood in his arms and could feel the killer aura emanating from him. As both sides were refusing to back down, Adrien suddenly came over."Oh my, I was wondering why the air pressure in the production set was so low. Turns out it's the both of you," he said.Following behind Adrien was Jensen. Jensen gave Kisa a glance and asked worriedly, "You okay?"Kisa shook her head and instinctively wanted to retreat from Gilbert
"Do you want to go home together?"Just as Kisa was about to respond, Gilbert promptly cut in, "You guys can go on back. She and I have something to discuss."Kisa instantly retorted, "What's there for me to discuss with you?""Just because you have nothing to discuss with me doesn't mean that I have nothing to discuss with you," Gilbert huffed and said assertively.Kisa could not win against him in an argument, so she ignored him.Jensen chuckled lowly, "Alright. You two go ahead then."Then, he turned to Adrien, "Mr. Tanner, constantly watching the younglings doesn't seem like a good idea. Are you interested in getting a drink or two?"Adrien tucked one of his hands into his pockets while his other held a cigarette. With a casual smile, he said, "I'm envious of this romance you younglings have. I'm really getting old."Jensen smiled and did not respond.Meanwhile, Kisa felt embarrassed. She smiled forcefully, "I wouldn't call it romance. It's... Meaningless torment."Kisa's
"Your meat skewers are ready, miss. Enjoy."A woman in her fifties placed a few plates of meat skewers in front of Kisa with a smile. However, she did not dare to look at Gilbert at all.Kisa smiled at her and said, "Thank you."Soon after the woman left, Gilbert snorted in disdain, "Is this edible? Also, what kind of place is this? Not only is it run down, but it also doesn't even have a storefront! How could you eat out at a place like this?"Hearing his words, a young man sitting across Gilbert could not help but look up.However, the young man only glanced at Gilbert before quickly lowering his head once more.They were at a rundown alley in the old town.There were many food trucks in the alley, most of them being snacks like meat skewers, tacos, and noodle stir-fries.There was quite the crowd.Kisa and Gilbert got there late, so they could not get any seats and had to share a table with someone.They shared a table with a young man with eyeglasses. He looked like a fre
It was a pretty and innocent-looking girl; she looked like a fresh graduate.However, Gilbert did not care if she were pretty. Just as the girl sat down, Gilbert immediately threw her a deathly glare.It was probably the girl's first time getting glared at by a man because she instantly teared up.She hurriedly stood up."Sorry, sorry...." she said as she quickly walked away.She dared not look at Gilbert any further, even though he was handsome.Kisa swallowed the food in her mouth and tutted, "That was a pretty and innocent-looking girl. It's a shame that you scared her away."Then, Kisa scanned the area around them and chuckled quietly, "Even though there were empty seats elsewhere, she didn't go there and chose to sit across you instead. This means she thinks that you're handsome. Look at you, wasting your good looks! You could've used your looks to get girls... Mmph!"Just as Kisa finished her sentence, he promptly stuffed a meat skewer into her mouth."It's better for yo
The people around them started whispering。They were criticizing Gilbert for being bad-tempered and saying that he should give in to the woman as a man.Some of them pitied Kisa. They wondered how she could endure the man's violence in the long term and that they should break up soon.Hearing the people's whispers, Gilbert gradually darkened his expression.Meanwhile, Kisa remained seated calmly.Gilbert glared at her and smiled icily, "Are you done? If you're done eating, then let's go."Kisa smiled before slowly pulling out her wallet from her bag.However, the man was faster than her. He took out a few hundred-dollar bills and placed them on the table before dragging her away.The woman who sold the meat skewers counted the dollar bills and yelled at their retreating backs in panic, "This is too much!"However, Gilbert did not turn around; he strode out of the alley while dragging Kisa along. Then, he roughly shoved her into the car.Kisa fell onto the backseat unflatterin
Gilbert drove along the main road. When he drove past a secluded fork road, he quickly turned in.Kisa hurriedly got out before the car even fully came to a halt.Then, she squatted down and started puking her heart out on the grass next to her.Gilbert instantly paled. He found a bottle of water and hurriedly got out of the car.Meanwhile, Kisa was still puking.Gilbert squatted next to her and stroked her back."What's the matter? You're feeling sick from motion sickness?" he asked in a panic.Kisa shook her head. Just as she was about to say something, she started throwing up violently again."Blergh!"'I haven't thrown up like this ever since I recovered. I genuinely feel awful and lethargic, like I'm about to die,' she thought.Kisa puked for a while before she finally managed to catch a breath.Gilbert did not ask any further questions. He handed her the bottle of water, "Gargle first. Stay here and wait for me while I'll go get you some pills."He hurriedly got into
Kisa's abdomen hurt badly. The pain made her furious as she weakly growled, "Kid? I have no idea what you are saying.""Stop pretending!" Suddenly, Gilbert grabbed her by the collar and lifted her. "Answer me! Whose child are you pregnant with? Is it Jensen's?""Gosh! Are you crazy?"Kisa had a bad stomach ache and felt uncomfortable all over, but she lost her patience upon hearing his words, slapping him with her raised hand.However, she was weak and powerless now. So, there was no strength behind the slap, yet it was enough to rouse the anger in Gilbert's heart.Gilbert's eyes went scarlet. He threw Kisa into the grass angrily, tugged on his tie irritably, and shouted angrily at the woman lying motionless in the grass, "I didn't know you were pregnant with his child, Kisa. What do you take me for? Don't forget that I'm your legal husband!"Gilbert still could not let go of his hatred after yelling. He rushed over, grabbed her arm, and pulled her up forcefully, but his body ten
