"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
"Ahh! What did you do?!" The lady leaped to her feet with a sudden shriek. She shook away the coffee that had not stained her dress and glared fiercely at Kisa. Kisa gave her an innocent grin, "I'm so sorry, it was an accident.""You did it on purpose!" The lady did not back down and roared, wanting to hit Kisa. Lea stood in front of Kisa to block the lady, but she was pushed aside by the woman. "You b*tch! Do you think you're above the law just because you have some fame now? Watch me bring you down today!" The lady raised her hand and swiftly slapped in Kisa's direction.Kisa smirked coldly and quickly hooked over a plastic stool with her feet. The lady sprained her leg when her pumps hit the stool, causing her to fall to the ground. The ruckus backstage soon drew the attention of Mr. Willis, the head organizer. "What's wrong? Why are you even fighting backstage?"Before Kisa could speak up, the lady immediately stood up, hugged the organizer's arm, and sobbed, "Mr. Willis, you ha
When Gilbert arrived, all the artists instantly fixed their gazes on him.However, the person in charge and the nasty woman immediately paled.After all, Gilbert was also from Calthon and had been sharing some scandals with Kisa. They were worried that he would back Kisa up.The two of them did not have what it took to mess with Gilbert.Gilbert did not speak after he arrived. Instead, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it. Then he leaned back and puffed away quietly.Everyone present stared at him and did not speak, as if they were frozen.Gilbert could not help but laugh, "Carry on, everyone. I heard a commotion, so I came over to watch the fun."James, standing beside Gilbert, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.'I was genuinely worried that Mr. Kooper would help Ms. Becker. If that happened, I'd have to find a way to answer to Mrs. Kooper Sr.,' he thought.Meanwhile, the person in charge instantly felt relieved when he heard Gilbert's words.The nast
Kisa turned to the person in charge and said casually, "Sure, Mr. Willis. You could remove me from the event's name list if you have the authority to do so. After all, the people here know the truth. You're clearly favoring the woman in your arms. When the time comes, and the higher-ups of the event ask about this, I'll have some eyewitnesses.""You're... You're talking nonsense. Since when was I favoring this woman?" the person in charge growled in anger. He did not forget to shove the woman clinging to his arm.Seeing this, the nasty woman did not give up and stuck her voluptuous 'assets' toward the arm of the person in charge.However, trying to avoid any more speculation on the relationship between the two of them, the person in charge moved away from her.The woman fell flat on the ground face first with a muffled thud.Even James could not control himself and stifled a laugh with his hand covering his mouth.He then turned to Gilbert to see his reaction. To his surprise, Gi
