Gilbert cocked an eyebrow and looked at her. "What idea?"Kisa just smiled mysteriously and said nothing.He glanced at her and suddenly felt that she was quite cunning. Five days after recuperating, Gilbert's wound had still not completely healed, but he could walk like a normal person.Kisa returned to the set to shoot her scenes normally after five days. As she had taken five days off for no reason, there was bound to cause tongues to wag. The most apparent one was Sharon, who mocked Kisa in her face. "Some people think they are entitled to special treatment just because they are the lead actresses, but they actually lack professionalism. I can't believe that such people even have fans. How ridiculous!""You're jealous, aren't you? I'm afraid you can't have such special treatment even if you wanted to because you aren't good enough." Ariella talked back at once.Kisa was in a good mood and did not want to make a fuss over it. She smiled at Ariella and said, "Just read the scrip
Jensen's eyes were darkly profound in the dim light. He smiled and said, "If you are not in a hurry, we can sit down and talk.""Okay."The café was quiet and suitable for having a conversation. Since arriving at the café, Kisa's cell phone had been ringing non-stop, and the sound of the ringing was particularly loud in the quiet atmosphere.Jensen glanced at her with a smile. "It is Gilbert, right?"Kisa smiled and did not answer.Jensen leaned back in his chair and said casually, "It is okay. You'd better reply to him. After that, we will have a talk.""Okay." Kisa nodded, hurriedly took out her phone, and sent a few messages back to Gilbert.Knowing Gilbert, Kisa knew he would not stop calling her just because she had returned a few messages. But surprisingly, he only replied with an 'I will wait for you', and then stopped calling her again. She felt he was slowly changing. Her heart filled with joy, and she could not help but smile at the thought of this.There was a fleeti
Kisa was startled. Just as she turned around and before she knew it, hot breath sprayed on her lips, and a man domineeringly pressed his hot mouth against her lips and fervently kissed her. She looked with widened eyes at the handsome face, which was just an inch from her, then slowly raised her hands and wrapped them around his slender waist.Feeling her spontaneous reaction to engage with him, Gilbert felt less upset, and his kisses became gentler than before.After kissing for a long time, he pulled his mouth away just when she felt breathless. Kisa was so smitten that she went weak at the knees and leaned limply in his arms.He gave her a peck on the lips, but still feeling not too happy. "You are late. So consider this kiss your punishment."It took a moment before Kisa came to her senses and stood straight from his arms. "I sent you messages. You were the one who insisted on waiting.""Heh, it is my fault for waiting for you instead, isn't it?" He peevishly shot her a sidewa
Gilbert furrowed his forehead. "You mean the warden in the women's prison back then?""Yeah." Kisa nodded. "Jensen says someone has seen the warden; he is still alive. I think we should be able to find him soon. By then, we will know the real culprit of that fire."The furrow on Gilbert's brow deepened with a touch of grave concern on his face.Kisa looked at him in perplexity. "What's wrong? Is this bad news?""Of course not. It is just strange that someone who has disappeared for so long is so easy to find. Davian also searched for that warden, but had no clue." Not that he did not believe Jensen; he just thought it was a little weird.Kisa thought he was being too wary. "Jensen has been looking for the warden for a long time. Maybe he just got lucky and found a clue. Besides, he is influential in Raworth and acquainted with Kohen. So if the warden is hiding abroad, Jensen will be the one who can find him."Gilbert was jealous when he heard Kisa praise Jensen. He lowered his he
Jensen lowered his eyes and smiled. "You are really quite ruthless, even toward the daughter of your former lover."Adrien took a drag and narrowed his eyes. "Because she is a disgrace. She shouldn't have even existed.""She and I are a disgrace in your eyes. What about Peter?""Peter?" Adrien stared at him with cold eyes, his tone callous. "You are not in any way comparable to Peter.""Heh!" Jensen scoffed and took a drag on his cigarette, the hazy smoke obscuring all the emotions in his eyes.Adrien grunted, somehow irritated. "Don't worry. You will get your effort's worth in time. When that woman breaks up with Gilbert, she will be yours eventually.""You will never understand what I really want," Jensen said faintly without looking up.Adrien looked at him quietly and indifferently. A while later, he puffed out a ring of smoke. "Not that I don't know what you want. You are just like your mother—the things you want are never practical.""Is that so?" Jensen chuckled slyly.
"No!" Kisa refused. "Your grandma will be suspicious if you spend the night with me. Be good and go back to stay with your grandma."Gilbert struggled internally for a long while. "Okay, but you have to give me a reward.""What reward?" Kisa was puzzled."Figure it out yourself," Gilbert said, ridiculing her as guileless and unromantic in his mind."How about I take you to dinner tomorrow?" Kisa said after thinking for a moment."Do I look like I lack food? Who needs you to buy me dinner?" Gilbert snickered."Then tell me, what reward do you want?" Kisa asked him with a frown, sounding a little impatient."Forget it. I want nothing. Get out of the car." Gilbert got even angrier.Kisa stared speechlessly at his uptight look, thinking, 'His mind is even harder to read than a woman's.' She took her handbag in one hand, pulled the door with the other, and said, "It is you who tells me to get out of the car. Don't get angry after I go."Gilbert pulled his face together and said not
Lea looked at her curiously. "Did I frighten you, Kisa?"Kisa looked around the dim environment and said with a smile, "Anyone would have been frightened when you stood behind me without making a sound."Lea smiled shyly. "I didn't mean to. I wanted to call out to you, but you just looked at that car like you were very absorbed, so I thought better of it." Lea thought of something and suddenly smiled at her. "Is that Mr. Kooper in the car?"Kisa took a long look at her and shook her head. "No, it is not.""Then it is....""It is my boyfriend."Lea was transfixed. "Really? You have a boyfriend?""Yeah, he is an outsider. You know, the impact of a celebrity having a relationship is quite significant. I have been dating him secretly for the past few days, but I'm also afraid of being caught by the paparazzi. So, can you keep this a secret for me?""Sure." Lea nodded vigorously.Kisa smiled at her and asked, "By the way, why did you come to see me so late?""I have been here sinc
"I'm off," Kisa said. Gilbert was upset at hearing that. But before he could say anything, she added. "I have long been off since four in the afternoon."Gilbert glanced up at the wall clock; it was a quarter to nine. He sneered and said, "Why didn't you have time to return my messages when you finished work so early? And it has been a whole day, and you didn't bother calling me."Kisa had just walked to a quiet corner and talked to Gilbert on the phone when Ariella came after her. "Kisa, come on. Let's go sing. Everyone is waiting for you.""Okay, you go ahead. I will be right there.""No, if you don't go, they are going to ask me to drink. Come on, let's go," Ariella said and tugged on her arm.Gilbert had lost his impatience. "Where are you? What's all that noise? Why don't I come and get you?""No, no, no. I'm hanging out with the crew at a karaoke bar. That is all for now. I have to go over there right now. Talk to you later."Kisa hung up and sounded so hurried. Gilbert wa
