"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
Gilbert was waiting for the elevator when Kisa approached. The elevator was still not up, so Gilbert looked straight and stared at the number screen. He did not take a single glance at Kisa. Kisa did not greet him and just stood by his side in front of the elevator. The atmosphere was slightly awkward as they ignored each other.Lea studied and perceived the strangeness between them but could not describe what caused the strangeness between them. Yet one had to admit; they were a perfect couple, a match made in heaven. James eyed Kisa constantly, his face covered in doubt. 'Miss Becker is such a beauty. Why won't Mrs. Kooper Sr. let Mr. Kooper come in contact with her?' James thought to himself. He could not help but cast another glance at Kisa. The more he looked at Kisa, the more attractive and elegant Kisa seemed.The elevator door opened with a 'ding', and the crowd accompanying them stood still, anticipating the duo to enter the elevator before them. Yet both Kisa and Gilbert st
Kisa and Gilbert's cars were parked beside each other at the hotel's entrance as they entered their respective vehicles. Turning into the main road, they drove single file, with Gilbert's car trailing behind Kisa's. Lea noticed this and questioned Kisa, "Kisa, why is Mr. Kooper's car following us? Is he going to the fashion week too?""Who knows? Maybe we're heading in the same direction," Kisa unhurriedly replied. The next moment, her phone notification rang, informing her of a new message from Gilbert. As she opened the phone message with a finger, she blushed. Gilbert's message was simple. [You vixen, you better be prepared for tonight!]This sentence was full of ambiguity. No matter how revealing Kisa looked on the outside, she was still a conservative person. She felt both embarrassed and amused after she read the text. 'Gilbert must have been holding a grudge for what I did in the elevator just now.'Lea scooted over when she saw Kisa's amused yet angry. "Kisa, what are you lo
Kisa's face darkened as she brushed off the coffee from her dress. She only had one dress for this event, so she had nothing else to change, even when it was dirty. Lea instantly screamed at the person, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you watch where you're going? You stained Kisa's dress! How is she supposed to attend the event now?!"Not having the time to argue, Kisa tried very hard to clean the coffee stains off her dress. Lea's eyes flicker. "Kisa, I'll hold your bag. Go clean up your dress. It'll be troublesome if it stains further."Kisa was anxious. She did not think twice before handing Lea her bag and ran to the bathroom. The lady who bumped into Kisa, possibly a famous artist judging from the way she dressed, was someone of her age. Watching as Kisa ran to the bathroom, the lady lifted the corner of her lips coldly. She whispered in Lea's ears with a volume that only both of them could hear, "Don't forget what Mr. Mullen asked you to complete." After she finished, she backe
