Gilbert could feel that Kisa was trying to please, get close, and cater to him. He would feel happy if it weren't for the incident between Jensen and the warden. On the one hand, he missed her initiative and pleasantness. Yet, he was afraid that this was all a trap. He leaned back on the couch and pinched his brow wearily. 'I don't even dare to think about this matter. What would I do if this was a trap?"

"Gilbert, do you need me to do anything else?" The woman tidied up his desk and stacked the files nicely at the side. Gilbert opened his eyes to look at her. After a while, he said in a dry tone, "Come on. Let's go."

Kisa was stunned, "Aren't you doing overtime?"

"I'm not anymore," said Gilbert. With the woman right before his eyes, how could Gilbert even be in the mood to work? Gilbert smiled bitterly and stood up, saying, "I'll take you for a meal before sending you back."

"Oh, okay," Kisa walked over to him, all smiles, and naturally hugged his arms. Gilbert stared down at his

    It was Adrien who called Kisa. 'Uncle Adrien rarely contacts me. Why did he call me today?' Kisa hurriedly put down her sandwich to receive the phone call. "Kisa, you don't have a scene to film today, right?""That's right. Our director had other matters today," Kisa replied."Alright then, come to my clubhouse and play today. You haven't been here before, right?" Adrien asked."Clubhouse?" Kisa heard of it from Jensen before. He told her that Adrien has a clubhouse in a busy part of Calthon and that the business was doing well. Jensen promised to bring her there several times, but they never had the chance to go. Her eyes darkened at the thought of Jensen. It was Adrien's voice that brought Kisa back to reality. "Kisa, I know that you're still upset about what happened to Jensen. Come take a break at my place.""Will do," Kisa suppressed her inner sorrow and smiled. She had to make a trip to the clubhouse since it was the place Jensen had wanted to take her to. Just as she put dow

    "That's because you were too slow!"Peter stared at him blankly. Unsure if he was right, but he felt like Adrien's eyes were filled with hatred when he said that."Peter, listen to me. Go for her if you like her, and destroy everything if you can't get her. Otherwise, you're just going to make yourself the most miserable person in the world."'Destroy everything?'Peter's heart sank when he thought about how grim Jolina's face looked whenever she rejected him.'Should I really do that?'What if I don't have the heart to?'Arriving at Adrien's club by car, Kisa did not immediately enter the establishment, instead choosing to examine the exterior of the building. The club, with a luxurious-looking exterior, was five stories high, and each story had a different event taking place. This is not a place for those who are not rich or without high social standing.Kisa awkwardly looked at how she dressed. She was wearing a white t-shirt with a pair of jeans for convenience. Added her a

    Peter led the way and brought them all the way to the highest floor of the club.Rumor had it that the top floor was also the most luxurious floor. There was plenty of entertainment, but only certain people could get inside.So, the top floor was not packed and was rather quiet and private.Adrien had been expecting them.He waved at Kisa and Jolina as soon as they stepped into the lobby."Kisa, over here."Kisa looked over and saw Adrien sitting in a grand booth, and she walked over with Jolina, sitting opposite Adrien.Jolina was a little restrained and would not lift her head up.Peter was sitting right in front of her, and his gaze had never shifted away from her.A waiter came over with two glasses of cocktail after they sat down. Then, the waiter placed the cocktails in front of Kisa and Jolina respectively."Thanks." Kisa thanked the waiter before looking at Adrien. "Uncle Adrien, your club is huge.""Ha-ha. You're too kind. You should come here more often if you like

    Kisa sat up straight before smiling faintly. "Uncle Adrien, you're kidding. I'm only dating Gilbert because I love him and nothing else."Adrien's face turned doleful as he spoke, "Stop lying to me. I can tell that you're still very sad. You just can't get over what happened to Jensen and to yourself."It's true. None of us expected Gilbert to be such an evil person."Jensen is still in a coma, and god knows if he'll be able to open his eyes again. He's just so young, and he has a bright future ahead of him. He hasn't even had his own family yet. How could he live the rest of his life like this?"Tears streamed down Adrien's face as he spoke."Jensen has been my favorite business partner. I always imagined having an exceptional man like him as my son whenever he was with me."Adrien's voice trembled as he cried. What Adrien said tore Kisa's mental wound open.She bowed her head down as she tried to hold her tears back. Then, she said in a shaky voice."Yeah. Jensen... it's unfo

    Carolyn smirked and said sarcastically after looking at how shocked Kisa was."Sigh. I didn't know I could be so charming, either. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't be with your father. That way, he wouldn't fall for me and abandon your mother to be with me."She even sighed and pretended to be sorry and regretful as she spoke.Even though Kisa was shocked, she still asked Carolyn with a cold smile, "Does my dad know what's going on between the two of you?"Carolyn arched her brows and said, "I don't dare to tell your father about this because I don't want him to be sad. I wanted to divorce him, but you know how stubborn your father is, too, right? I'm afraid that he'll do something regretful if I tell him about this."Kisa was struggling to hold in her laughter.'Where did this woman get her confidence from? How could she be so bold to say something like this?'Kisa shifted her gaze to Adrien and saw how deeply in love he looked as he stared at Carolyn.She felt like everythi

    Kisa wobbled to the side after that person bumped into her. However, she managed to keep her balance after holding her hand against the wall.She looked up and saw a woman coming out of the room.That woman was dressed in sexy clothes and had some delicate makeup on. She looked gorgeous.She seemed like she drank, as her cheeks were a little pinkish.However, that woman looked very familiar to Kisa.She stared at that woman for a few seconds before she could remember who she was. That woman was Felicity. Gilbert brought her here from Athadale before he introduced her to Davian.Felicity squinted as if she was checking Kisa out too.Suddenly, Felicity smiled at Kisa and said, "I'm sorry for that.""It's fine." Kisa shook her head subconsciously.Felicity smiled before she walked to the lobby.Kisa looked at her, receding back. She had no idea if Felicity recognized her.'I guess not. After all, I'm just wearing simple clothes without any makeup today. Besides, we haven't real

    "I saw your boss's wife at Club Lovely Serenity. I think her name is Kisa Becker, right?"Felicity intentionally said it out loud. Upon hearing her, Gilbert's eyebrows immediately furrowed.He then stared at Davian with his gloomy eyes.Davian was frightened as he quickly said, "Nonsense. My boss's wife is filming now. You must be mistaken.""Well, her whole crew isn't working today. Don't you and your boss know about this? Tsk, tsk. You really don't care about your boss's wife. Anyway, I saw her at the club and she was in a private room. I think you know that people who like to go there are those rich and powerful idle hooligans.They like to tease women and ask women to drink. Tsk, tsk. Even an old-timer like me couldn't escape from them. I was forced to drink a few glasses. It's dangerous for an innocent girl like your boss's wife, tsk.But you and your boss are so busy.

    There was a thick gray rug inside the private room. The European-styled blinds were tightly closed. The crystal lamps on the ceiling were all switched on, lighting up the whole private room as bright as day.There was a big round table in the middle of the room.A few dandies wearing expensive clothes played poker on the round table.There were a few big booths in the private room.Men and women were drinking and laughing at the booths.Kisa looked around and finally saw Jolina at a booth further in.Only Jolina and Peter were there.It seemed like Peter was trying to impress her. He constantly showed her something new, but Jolina looked grim the whole time. She did not really pay attention to him.Felicity stared at Kisa as she asked with a smile, "Did you find your friend?""Yes." Kisa nodded. She then gently wriggled out of Felicity's grip, "I'll go over there. Have a good time.""Sure. Go ahead."Kisa smiled. She then walked toward Jolina.She was not close to Felicity.

    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
