Gilbert stepped back and sat opposite Kisa. "Am I that scary?" He asked when he saw the terrified expression on her face.Kisa patted her chest and said angrily, "No matter how handsome that face of yours is, it's still going to be scary when you're so close up in my face. Plus, all I saw when I opened my eyes was a huge face in front of me. Don't tell me that's not scary."The handsome guy was suddenly called a big-faced monster. Gilbert was speechless. Kisa took a deep breath to calm herself down and sat back on the sofa. She then picked up her phone on the side table and saw that it was already 2:00 a.m. She looked at the man in front of her and asked, "Didn't you sleep?""I slept during the day, and now I can't fall asleep." As Gilbert said that, he gave Kisa a flirtatious smile. "Besides, I said I'd come to see you."Kisa did not see the flirtatious look on his face. She lowered her head and scrolled her phone, pretending to be unconcerned. Gilbert stared at her without blinki
Gilbert looked down at her flat stomach and grinned. "Mm? Are you hungry?""I didn't eat anything at the ball just now." Kisa looked away, a little embarrassed; her stomach was growling loudly. Rumble, rumble.Gilbert smiled and pulled her up as he said, "Come on. I'll take you out for some food.""Right now?" Kisa looked outside. "It's so late; is anything open at this hour of the night?""We can go look," Gilbert replied."But... I'm scared of the person that your grandma sent...""There's no need to be afraid. That person probably thinks I'm still sleeping in my room." Gilbert smiled and proceeded to put on his hat and mask. "I'll wait for you downstairs. Go get ready and come down after you're done, okay?" Kisa nodded, wanting to grab some supper.Kisa had brought several sets of clothes on this trip. She picked out a hoodie and put it on. She then tied her hair into two braids, put on a mask, and pulled the hood of her sweatshirt onto her head. After that, Kisa looked into
The phone in Gilbert's pocket rang as soon as he and Kisa got out of the car. He took out the phone and glanced at it. Then he hung up immediately.Kisa looked at him in bewilderment. "Why don't you answer the call? What if Kelvin wants to speak to you urgently?""He wants to scold me. I'm stupid if I pick it up."Kisa laughed, "How do you know he's calling to scold you?" Her phone rang right after asking.She glanced down at the phone screen, then looked at Gilbert in surprise, "He...""You can answer the call if you don't believe he wants to scold me."Kisa picked up the call doubtfully and turned the speaker on.At that moment..."Gilbert! You b*stard! Did you ask me all the way here to be your substitute? You only care about dating Kisa, and I can't even sleep well! What kind of assistant do you have? Fire him immediately! He keeps waking me up at midnight! Ahhh! I'm furious! I miss Gracie. I want to be back in Calthon. Arghh..."Kisa's ears were going numb. She had to pul
"I asked the driver to drive us places with supper when I stopped the car," Gilbert took her straight to a store with fewer people, as he said.The staff handed over the menu soon after they sat down.Kisa looked around. There were many people in the store. She could not help but feel a little worried. She leaned close to Gilbert's ear and whispered, "There are so many people here. It's inconvenient for us to eat here. What if someone recognizes us and takes photos?"Gilbert pondered for a moment and said, "How about take away?"Kisa nodded hurriedly, "I saw a river beside the road when we got out of the car. Let's go there later."Gilbert nodded and turned his gaze back to the menu. He ordered a lot of food. All the dishes were well-packed after waiting for almost an hour.As Kisa said, there was really a small river beside the road. At this moment, it was empty by the river, and even the street lights were dim.There was a row of green plants between the riverbank and the road
"Take good care of your health these days. You can ask the bodyguard outside the door to bring you anything you want to eat."Soon, a roast chicken was finished by the man. After that, he took the food slightly slower. He looked at Adrien in wonder and a little uneasy, "Why are you so nice to me all of a sudden? You...""Well, when did I treat you badly? You might be dead many times if I didn't hide you here."The man pursed his lips and remained silent.Suddenly, Adrien got up and smiled at him, "Don't overthink it. Enjoy whatever you have."The difference in treatment made the man very uneasy. He asked Adrien softly, "Is something big going on lately?""Ha-ha... Something big?" Adrien smiled meaningfully at him, "There's nothing big, but it's your turn to show up based on my plan."The man looked confused.Adrien looked down at the marks on his ankles made by the iron chain and said lightly, "Heal the injury on your foot as soon as possible. I'll definitely set you free and e
Gilbert voiced with gritted his teeth. The unbearable desire fell on the woman's neck along with the heat.Kisa was kissed badly by him until she felt dizzy. She would have fallen to the ground long ago if he had not waisted her tightly. Kisa cursed herself in her heart that she was the loser who could never resist his kiss.She took a minute to catch her breath, and her mind sobered up slowly. Unexpectedly, the man hugged her even tighter with force on his arm when she was about to retreat from his embrace."Don't move. Let me hug for a while." The man's gentle and hoarse voice seemed to have magical power.Kisa leaned obediently in his arms for an instant without moving. Her watery eyes looked around the street and thought, 'Luckily nobody is on the road. Otherwise, I'll feel embarrassed if others see we hugged each other lovey-dovey.'Gilbert pressed his chin against the top of her clean hair and murmured, "Why was I so stupid before?""Ha-ha! You are not only stupid but also
"Mr. Kooper, why... did you get out of the elevator?"James's room was nearby the elevator. His eyes were in shock as if seeing a ghost when he saw Gilbert.'I stayed up for the whole night and paid close attention to the situation in Mr. Kooper's room almost every second. I definitely didn't see Mr. Kooper coming out of the room. How can Mr. Kooper come back from outside instead? What's going on? Did Mr. Kooper know how to clone?'James's face was full of doubts.Gilbert glanced at him coolly and snorted coldly, "Why? Do I need to report to you when I buy breakfast?""No, no, no..." James shook his head hastily and said tremblingly, "I didn't mean that. It's just that... I didn't see you going out. When did you...""Humph, my grandma really hired a good employee who did his best. He didn't even sleep to take care of me," Gilbert said sarcastically.No matter how stupid James was, he could feel it too. He pursed his lips and smiled awkwardly, "Thank you, Mr. Kooper."Gilbert sn
Looking at the man pulling his hair in frustration, Kelvin curiously walked toward him with a kebab in hand. He stared down and looked at his phone. "What's wrong with you?" A short while later, he chuckled, "Why are you searching for people with the same name as you? Would they possibly have greater achievements than you?"Gilbert's eyes darted up, and said solemnly, "What if I said the sole reason for Kisa's involvement with me was because of my name?" Kelvin got caught up in his question. "W-What does that even mean?""In other words, she stayed with me because of the name, Gilbert Kooper." Kelvin analyzed the sentence and frowned upon Gilbert. "Aren't you too lacking in confidence? You're afraid she fell in love with your name but not you? I mean you can just ask her about it.""No... It's just...""It's just what?" Kelvin shot him a curious glance. Gilbert shook his head, feeling agitated. "Forget it. You won't get it." Kelvin rolled his eyes, 'Is he joking about my intelligen
