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

    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'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

    In a small town in the South, a gentle breeze caressed the cheeks of passersby, creating a pleasant and serene atmosphere. This town, known for its tourism, was adorned with flowers even in its narrow alleys. The surrounding houses were all quaint inns, exuding a poetic and picturesque charm.Beneath an arching bridge, Kisa set up an easel to display and sell her paintings. She had always loved painting since childhood. Although she had not achieved great success in this field, her vivid and evocative paintings were very popular with tourists. She would sell most of her paintings every day.On weekends, Blake would join her at the stall, but today was Wednesday, and she was alone. After arranging her paintings, she had barely sat down when people began to gather around. Some admired her art, while others immediately offered to buy. Her paintings were reasonably priced, which attracted many customers."Miss, I'd like that painting of the snow-covered rose garden at night.""Alright,

    In the backyard, Kohen looked at his older brother's calm expression, a hint of worry in his voice. "Bro, are you alright?""I'm fine," Hayes said, adjusting the blanket on his lap. "Tomorrow, take me to meet those medical geniuses you found.""Oh, sure..." Kohen nodded in agreement, but after a moment, he could not help but ask, "Bro, what did that woman say to you that made you change your mind so suddenly?"Hayes gazed at the stars in the sky, his voice cool and distant. "She told me she's doing well, very happy. Then she pointed out how pitiful and miserable I am right now. She asked me if I don't feel envious, knowing how well she is doing compared to me."Kohen grimaced, realizing that the woman had provoked his brother into action.Hayes lowered his eyes, a faint smile on his face. "That's right. How could I not be envious? So, I want to heal my legs, live a good life, and show her that I can do better than her."Kohen felt a pang of sympathy for his brother. From Hayes's

    Mentioning Hayes, Eylul's expression became complex. "Hayes is reclusive and doesn't like to see people. Only a single old servant has been taking care of him all these years. I only met him once, back when I married Kohen."Mia's heart ached, recalling the enigmatic yet deeply emotional man. She could not help but feel a lump in her throat. "How's his health?" Mia asked.Eylul replied, "His health is fine, but his legs have remained the same. Kohen has found top orthopedic experts for him and even sought out Kelvin Hoover from Calthon, but he refuses treatment. For so many years, he hasn't even stepped outside the backyard.""You mean he's been living in the backyard all this time?" Jensen asked gravely.Eylul nodded. "Yes, Kohen wanted him to live in the main house, but he refused. He only likes staying in the backyard. Moreover, the room he stays in used to be..." Eylul glanced at Mia. She had heard that Mia used to live in that room.With a complicated expression, Mia pursed h

    "Let's forget everything that just happened,' Mia said.Jensen looked up at her. In the moonlight, his eyes were deep and complex, profound and unfathomable.Mia tried to muster a smile. "You don't have to feel burdened. In a way, I forced you. And you must have always disliked me. Actually, I didn't come to you for money; I just wanted to see you. Now that I have, I should go. Jensen, from now on... take care."With that, she walked away, fearing that if she lingered any longer, she would not be able to leave. But after only a few steps, she was embraced from behind.Jensen's voice was low and hoarse. "Stay with me."Mia trembled at his words. Jensen continued. "But I still have so many things to do and someone in my heart I can't let go of. I don't know... when I will be able to give you a satisfactory answer. If you don't want to stay with me without any promises or guarantees, you can—""I'm willing," Mia blurted out, "as long as I can be with you, I don't care about anything

    Mia's face changed instantly. " You... you know I like Jensen, why would you...""Heh, if you like Jensen, shouldn't you be willing to do anything for him? If you can't even do this, how can you claim to love him?""I won't do it! Doing this would be betraying Jensen. I would risk my life for him, but I can't do this."Adrien stared at her flushed face and gently chuckled, his words loaded with meaning. "Aren't you feeling all hot and bothered yet?"Mia frowned. Her body was indeed getting hotter and more agitated. 'Why would Adrien ask this? Could it be the drink...?'As the thought crossed her mind, her heart sank. Seeing Adrien's cold expression and the man's playful smile, Mia turned and ran. But before she could take more than a few steps, she was dragged back. Weakened by the drink, her desperate struggles were futile. As the man pressed her down, playing with her like a toy, she closed her eyes in despair. She thought she could never face Jensen again. With a bitter laugh,

    Adrien Tanner, Jensen's father, stood before Mia with a warm smile. "My son is truly awkward when it comes to matters of the heart. He's even willing to refuse such a beautiful young woman like you."Mia stared at him, her tears suddenly streaming down her face. "I only wanted to see him, even if it was to face rejection. Wouldn't it better to say it clearly to my face?""Yes, it would." Adrien agreed. "But standing here stubbornly won't help, because he left on a business trip a couple of days ago."Mia's heart ached even more, realizing that Jensen had avoided using the front door just to evade her.Adrien continued. "I have a way to make him come to you willingly, but it depends on whether you're willing to cooperate."Mia nodded. "What do I have to do?"Adrien motioned to his bodyguard, who handed him a glass of wine. "Drink this," he said.Mia furrowed her brow, hesitant.Adrien gently patted her shoulder, like a father would."Don't be afraid. I won't harm you. From the

    Filled with guilt, Mia stepped forward, but Kohen suddenly pulled out a handgun and aimed it at her."Get out!"Jensen pulled Mia back. He looked at the cold man before him. It was this man who had taken him in years ago. At that time, Kohen was young, a carefree and privileged young man. Now, he seemed to have grown up all at once, his eyes colder and more distant.Jensen said with a troubled expression, "If you ever need me in the future, don't hesitate to find me."Kohen sneered coldly; pain etched in his brow. He mocked himself. "I never should have taken you in back then. In the end, it was I who harmed my own brother."Jensen pursed his lips, not knowing what to say, only feeling an unbearable pain in his heart. It was the first time he felt he owed someone. That sense of indebtedness suffocated him."Get out, and don't let me see you two ever again."On that night, Jensen and Mia left the McCray family. As a result of Hayes's ordeal, the McCray family underwent tremendous

    "What on earth happened?"Jensen did not speak. Mia choked out. "The collaboration between the Burton family and the McCray family was a trap. We were ambushed by the Burton family, and Hayes... he was hit by a car trying to save us.""Damn it!" Kohen cursed under his breath, abruptly pulling a knife from a nearby bodyguard and pointing it at them. "What are your lives worth? Why would my brother save you? Why?"Mia bit her lip, tears streaming down her face. 'It's my fault. I wanted to save Jensen, but I should have gone alone. I shouldn't have dragged Hayes into this. He seemed cold-blooded and heartless, and I never thought that he would risk his life for me. Why was he so good to me?'"Kohen..."Suddenly, a weak cry rang out. Hayes had awakened.Kohen hurriedly moved closer, gripping Hayes's hand. "Bro!"Hayes's face was deathly pale. He did not look at Kohen, but instead turned his gaze to Mia. His eyes were calm. He saw Mia's red-rimmed eyes and the tears lingering there,

    Hayes was sent flying by the car, his body crashing into a wall before bouncing back.Mia's entire body felt ice-cold as she trembled, yelling, "Hayes!""Kill them all!" A hoarse, aged voice suddenly rang out from the entrance. It was Curtis. He looked at Kendall's lifeless body on the ground, his eyes filled with rage, shouting, "Run them over! I want them to join my grandson in death!""Ah!" Jensen roared, disregarding the guards' swinging knives, and like a madman, charged at Curtis. Curtis's face changed, desperately pulling a nearby guard in front of him as a shield. But it was useless. Jensen, like a crazed beast, attacked anyone in his path. Soon, his knife was held against Curtis's throat.Curtis trembled all over. "Wh-What do you want?"Jensen, covered in blood with splatters on his face, looked like a demon that had emerged from a battleground. He grabbed Curtis and held him hostage in front of him. "Let us go!""Don't even think about it!" Curtis retorted angrily. "You
