"Something has happened to Mr. Kooper."Kisa noticed the blood stain on Davian's shoulder while he was speaking."You're hurt?" she asked, alarmed.Davian glanced at his shoulder hastily and said, "It's just a small injury. Come with me, ma'am.""To... To where? What happened to Gilbert?"'Since Davian is Gilbert's personal assistant, something terrible must have happened for him to be in so much panic. But he's the Gilbert Kooper; who'd dare to lay a finger on him?' she wondered."Let's leave the questions for later, ma'am. Come with me and leave for Calthon right this instant, " Davian said with worry."How about Gilbert?"She thought of Gilbert's warning before he left.Then, she said hesitantly, "I think I'll wait till Gilbert gets back.""Mr. Kooper has already returned to Calthon.""What?"Kisa instantly felt an inexplicable sense of dreadfulness and unjust.'If Davian didn't come to me, I would've been waiting for Gilbert here like an idiot,' she thought.Davian tu
"Hohoho..."Anthony emerged from the crowd. His eyes glinted with excitement as he stared at Kisa, "Just as I thought, Gilbert had you hidden away. It seems like you're receiving out-of-the-ordinary treatment from him."Kisa instantly put on a sad face," Mr. Mullen, you must be mistaken; I have nothing to do with Gilbert.""If there's nothing between you two, why did he have you hidden away? Take them away!"Within moments, Kisa and Davian were tied up and shoved into a van.Davian teared up. He turned to Kisa with guilt, "I'm sorry, ma'am. You're being kidnapped because of my foolishness. When Mr. Kooper left, he specifically told me to take good care of you. I should've realized something was wrong when those guys said Mr. Kooper needed help."Kisa sighed, "It's not your fault; you were just worried for Gilbert. Besides, who would've thought that was a mole among your men?" "That darn traitor! I'll skin him alive once I return," Davian said through gritted teeth.Then, Kisa
"Rather than using me to probe Gilbert, why not work with me to take him down?"For a moment, Anthony was stunned. Then, he peered at her amusingly, "What do you mean?""Gilbert's your enemy, but he's also an enemy of mine," Kisa replied with a vengeful and ruthless expression.The hatred in her eyes grew stronger when she thought of her child who died in her womb. It seemed so genuine that it was hard for people to think that she was putting on an act.Anthony sat down and continued to stare at her with great interest, "You're truly willing to join hands with me and take him down?" "Of course. I hate him for sending me to jail and killing my child." Anthony shook his head and laughed sardonically, "I've never seen such a peculiar pair of husband and wife before.""We are no longer husband and wife.""Ah. Tell me, then, how will you help me take Gilbert Kooper down? Just a heads up, if your plan doesn't work, I'll still gouge out your eyeballs and cut your limbs off.""I can
The moment the call was connected, Gilbert's grumpy voice came."If you want to kill that woman, go ahead.""It's me."Just as Gilbert was about to hang up, Kisa suddenly let out a gentle snigger.Silent fell on the other end of the phone, with only bursts of short breath.Kisa sneered. "You want to know where Sara is? If you do, come and look for me alone."As she said that, she hung up the call and tossed the phone to Anthony. "Send the address to him."Anthony let out a playful smile. "Are you sure he'll come over?""I'm sure of it. Because... Sara is the apple of his eye."For Gilbert, Sara was a jewel, while she was nothing more than trash. A normal person would fight tooth and nail for a jewel. Who would do the same for a piece of trash?She then turned around and sat in the corner as she silently waited for Gilbert's arrival.'As long as he comes, my chances of escaping will be fifty percent more.'There was no one she could rely on now, and she could only save herse
In the face of his cold, bloodthirsty glare, Kisa only calmly said, "How are you that foolish? Do you think I'll tell you where Sara is just because I said so?"He clearly knew this was a trap, and as a testament to how much he cared for Sara, he still came without any hesitation.Gilbert's eyes narrowed as he let out a terrifying presence. "I shouldn't have allowed you to live."Kisa let out a gentle smile. "It's a little too late to regret that now."As she said that, she looked at Anthony, who was enjoying the show, "I've brought him here. Do as you see fit to him then."Davian immediately exploded, "You heartless wench! Mr. Kooper had been covering for you, and you set a trap for him to save yourself?"Davian's hands and legs were tied. He struggled and rolled to Gilbert's side as he said, "Mr. Kooper, this woman is in league with Anthony Mullen. Both of them are after your neck. Run, sir! Leave me be, and don't bother about Sara anymore!"Anthony snorted. "Since you're alre
"Is that so? I can't wait for it." Kisa sneered as she looked at Anthony, "How do you plan to torture him?"Anthony gleefully lifted Gilbert's chin as he said, "Tch, Gilbert, if you've begged for mercy earlier, you wouldn't have needed to suffer this beating."Gilbert knelt on one knee; his face was filled with icy pride. "Anthony Mullen, kill me if you dare.""Oh, I dare not take your life. You're the CEO of GK Pictures after all, however..." As he said that, he suddenly glanced at Kisa and smiled mischievously. "I always liked the trope of a couple killing one another. Come, play that out for me."As he said that, he suddenly tossed a dagger at Kisa's feet.Kisa looked at the dagger, and her eyes instantly lit up, but still, she cast a confused gaze at Anthony. "Mr. Anthony, this is...""Take this dagger and stab at him. As long as you don't hit a vital organ, cut him as much as you like."Seeing Kisa not budging, he added, "What? Backing off now? I'm giving you a perfect chan
The smile on Anthony's face immediately froze as he looked icily at Kisa, "What's the meaning of this?"At this instant, Kisa's about-face stunned everyone.Davian was even more flabbergasted.Gilbert clutched the wound on his chest as he stared at Kisa.'I never thought that she was really putting up an act. But since it's all an act, she did not have to go so hard on me.'He was seriously suspecting that this woman was using this as an opportunity to get back at him.Kisa moved to Anthony's behind and placed the dagger on his neck as she hissed. "Get your men to free them.""Dream on!" Anthony let out a furious laugh. "I originally did not plan to kill you, but now that you've done this, then... you must die!"Anthony's tone was extremely sinister.Yet, Kisa was totally unperturbed. "No matter. It's not like my life is worth anything anyway. Taking you down with me sounds quite worth it."As she said that, she pressed the blade closer to Anthony's neck and yelled, "Are you
Anthony's eyes widened even more as his expression grew more menacing, looking no different from a demon.Sharon smiled softly, "Why are you staring at me like that? It's not like I'm the one who tied you up."As she said that, she tore the tape off his mouth.Anthony instantly burst into a tirade. "Go back and tell Gilbert and that b*tch that I, Anthony Mullen, won't stop until both of them are dead!"Sharon smiled seductively, "You hate them that much, huh? How about we make a deal then?"Anthony glared at her and did not say anything. Clearly, he had regarded her as part of Gilbert's clique.Sharon circled around him before leaning over. She chuckled as she said something to him.The man's facial expression turned from anger to suspicion. "You're for real?""Of course, if you can help me obtain what I want, then I'II help you take revenge." Sharon took out a blade and cut off the rope binding Anthony as she said, "If you agree, then come to look for me at Calthon."As she s
