"After I picked up the phone, she started hurling insults before I could even speak. She called you heartless, ruthless, and cunning for partnering with Sharon to set her up. She also mentioned that she wouldn't let you get away and that she'll definitely get back at you and Sharon and make you two end up miserable."Hearing Madalyn's words, Gilbert could not help but picture Kisa hurling insults.He unconsciously let out a laugh.Madalyn immediately frowned, "What's the matter? You seem pretty happy about her hurling insults at you?"The smile on Gilbert's face dropped abruptly. Then, he responded coolly, "Of course not. I'm laughing at how she's overestimating herself by thinking she can beat me with J & K Film Group. She's underestimating me. Hah, she's saying that she'll make me miserable, but does she have what it takes?"When Madalyn noticed the contempt and iciness in Gilbert's words, the suspicion on her face gradually dissipated.She snorted icily, "That's true; that wom
Gilbert slightly furrowed his brows, " When did you send it?""Just now. I was worried it would interrupt your rest, so I didn't dare send it to you so soon. Until it was nighttime, I thought you would be awake then, so I sent it to you. Who knew you would not reply to me for most of the day? That's why I'm calling you now to ask you," Davian replied.Gilbert did not even listen to the last half of Davian's report. He merely searched through his chat messages to check for himself.In the end, he found out Davian had sent him quite a few messages. At the very top were a video and a few pictures.In the video, the scene showed Sharon being held by the jaw by Kisa while being brutally scolded and insulted by her. The pictures behind were all images of Sharon in ragged clothing and embarrassing, pitiful states. While looking at Kisa's cruel and cold expression in the videos, he scrunched his brows and asked Davian, "When did this incident occur?""Right during the evening when they fi
She could not stop yawning and asked Lea, " Didn't you say we are going to Athadale tomorrow? Why are we going there today?"She was supposed to be in blissful slumber at this time. Lea called her suddenly, saying that the time to go to Athadale was changed and they had to go there today. Therefore, she hastily crawled out of bed. She did not even have time to put on makeup and proceeded to rush hurriedly to the airport.Lea brought a stylist and a make-up artist, both hired by Jensen. Lea said to Kisa in distress, "I don't know why they always change the schedule. It was Mr. Jensen who informed me in the middle of the night. For me to let you have a bit more sleep, I called you when it was dawn."Kisa smiled at Lea, "It must've been hard for you. You can sleep for a while on the plane later.""Mhm," Lea immediately nodded her head, and a glint of happiness flashed within her heart. This was the first time in a long time that Kisa had cared about her.Kisa sat in the first-class c
Suddenly, a high-pitched shriek reverberated on the scene. Kisa's heart shivered.'Was it Gilbert who came? Why did Gilbert come to Athadale for no reason? He even went to the same hotel as I did. He's not following me, is he?' she wondered.Once Gilbert appeared, most media reporters scattered and flocked toward him. Many of the bystanders also started to crowd toward Gilbert.Only then did Kisa let out a sigh of relief. She elevated herself slightly and looked toward the entrance. With a single glance, she saw Gilbert surrounded by a crowd.His straight figure and handsome looks seemed particularly outstanding in the crowd. However, Kisa had clearly locked eyes with him, but Gilbert was still emotionless. The calm gaze even moved directly away from her figure.Gilbert had long legs, so his strides were huge. In a few steps, he had come over to her. The media reporters also rushed in troops to surround him.Kisa silently watched him. She did not expect him to not give her even a
In front of him was the assistant that Madam Kooper Sr. had gotten for him. His name was James Porter. Madam Kooper Sr. exclaimed that his job was demanding and knew he was on a business trip at Athadale this time, so she purposefully let James come along to take care of him.She said it was to take care of him, but Gilbert knew clearly in his mind that Madalyn was having James monitor him to confirm whether he and Kisa had genuinely broken up. Madalyn was adamant about separating Kisa from him.James was creeped out from the stare of Gilbert's gaze. He respectfully stood before Gilbert and spoke carefully to him, "Mr. Kooper, your phone has been ringing for a while. You don't want to listen to it for a bit?""There are numerous harassment calls these days. No need to care.""Oh..." James nodded and still felt uncomfortable. He did not dare to stand in front of Gilbert, but neither did he dare to sit down. He could only stiffen his body while standing there.Gilbert got up to sit
"Weren't you angry? I couldn't finish my sentence that early morning before you hung up my call. Then I sent a message to you, yet you still didn't reply. You even purposedly let grandma pick it up when I gave you a call?" Her voice held a little resentment.Gilbert explained himself in an unusually good temperament, "I fell asleep that day. I didn't purposely not pick up your calls. Besides, I didn't hang up your call. After all, I was mad because I cared too much for you."Kisa felt her heart sweeten as the smile on her face did not stop. Turns out the feeling of being pampered and sweet-talked by him felt very nice.She finally stopped teasing him and chuckled, " Alright, I understand. You don't need to explain."Pausing for a bit, Kisa looked at the gleaming sunshine out her windows before asking hesitantly, "You... Do you want to come over to my place, or maybe we meet up somewhere...?""I'm afraid. It's not possible," Kisa's sentence could not finish as Gilbert immediately a
Even though spring had arrived, the night was still a little cold. Kisa wore a purple tube-top grown. A small white jacket covered the outside. She had light makeup on, which made her seem elegant and noble.The number of people attending the charity ball was numerous, and Kisa was the ambassador of this charity. Once she showed up, she became the focus of the event. Regarding the major media outlets that took pictures with the odd and inquisitive stares from the audience, Kisa could already face them easily.She slowly walked into the banquet hall, her eyes glancing at everyone with composure, without even a hint of dodging them. Some of them smiled and greeted her, and she, too, greeted back politely.Hidden among the crowds was Gilbert, his dark eyes closely locked onto her body. At this moment, he suddenly discovered that Kisa was initially capable of being so dazzling and attractive too.Maybe, she initially was so outstanding and so radiant. However, due to the event in the p
"Do you think everyone's thoughts are as dirty as yours?" Gilbert lowered his gaze and sneered. "I don't care what other people think. I'm only curious about what you were thinking when you were staring at that woman," Anthony said with a playful smile on his face. Gilbert looked down and continued to drink, not paying any attention to Anthony.Things were different now. In the past, Gilbert did not take any action against this man because he was scared that he would hurt Kisa. Now, Kisa has obviously become stronger and more powerful. So, Gilbert was no longer afraid of Anthony, no matter how evil he was.Anthony snorted and looked at Kisa from top to bottom. "Sigh, I didn't expect this woman to become so feminine after only a few days of not seeing each other," he said with a sinister and playful tone. "Look at that slender waist and beautiful ankles. She must be a treat in bed."Gilbert remained silent and did not look up. He was filtering out Anthony's nasty remarks. Although he
