Gilbert stared at her, his face dark and brooding. "Looks like you never listened to a word I said, or maybe what I say just never mattered to you," he said with a scowl.Kisa blinked innocently, as Madalyn looked on with a smug smirk.As Gilbert finished his breakfast, he wiped his mouth and spoke slowly, "Since you don't want to go to Oceanville—""Oh, I remember now! You're taking me to Oceanville today!" Kisa suddenly exclaimed, realizing her mistake. She quickly turned and rushed upstairs to pack her things.Madalyn's face turned red with anger. "Slow down, if you hurt my precious great-grandchild, I'll make sure you regret it," she snarled at Kisa, who ignored her and hurried up the stairs.Turning to Gilbert, Madalyn sneered. "I don't know what you were thinking, bringing that deadweight with you on your business trip.""Grandma, have you heard any news about Uncle David?" Gilbert asked, looking in the direction of the stairs.Madalyn was taken aback. "Why are you asking

'Could it be for me?' That thought vanished without a trace as soon as she recalled the icy, mocking expression on his face just now. 'He has deep resentment toward me now, so how could it possibly be for me?'Davian hung up the phone, feeling frustrated. "Lately, I don't know what's been going on in Mr. Kooper's head, but it seems like he doesn't want GK anymore."Kelvin raised an eyebrow. "What's going on?""Risen Enterprise has been stealing all our business lately, and they're even getting their hands on GK's confidential information. They're always one step ahead of us, and they even swooped in and stole that land we were eyeing. And to top it off, our data systems got hacked. It's obvious someone's out to get us, but Mr. Kooper insists on going to Oceanville instead of staying and fixing the mess here."Kelvin furrowed his brow and took a drag of his cigarette. "Could it be because of Kisa? After all, she has always wanted to go to Oceanville.""I have no idea, but Mr. Koope

"Do you know a man named David?" Kisa asked."David?""He used to be the eldest son of the Kooper family, Gilbert's uncle. Gilbert's dying to meet him, and I found out that he came to your house over twenty years ago. So, do you know him?" Kisa explained eagerly.Thomas' smile was warm and genuine, his expression lacking any trace of pretense. "Sorry, I don't have any impression of that name. I've lived here my whole life without ever seeing a man named David come to our house."Just then, Gilbert walked in. Thomas welcomed him, saying, "You've just gotten off the plane. Get some rest and let me know if you want to go anywhere tomorrow."As Thomas left, Gilbert closed the door and said nonchalantly, "If you could figure things that out that easily, then my uncle's whereabouts wouldn't remain such a mystery."Gilbert sauntered over to the desk, his gaze lingering on the steaming dessert. He then picked it up and took a sip, and Kisa was surprised. "I thought you didn't like that k

As Adrien walked away to answer his phone, Mrs. Tanner Sr. grabbed Kisa's hand and said urgently, "Molly, don't leave Adrien. His sudden change of character must be due to some sort of trauma. Please don't blame him."Kisa's eyes sparkled as she responded in a low voice, "He's becoming someone I don't even recognize anymore. It's like he's a completely different person.""Yes, I know. But he truly loves you. He's just afraid of being looked down upon by your family, so he works hard to make a name for himself, sometimes neglecting you in the process. Don't blame him. He is just so in love with you and wants to make something of himself. He is not only distant with you, but with me as well. He used to be so close to me, so filial, but now it is like he is a stranger. He must be under a lot of work pressure. Molly, please don't blame him, okay?"Kisa nodded. "I won't blame him, Mrs. Tanner Sr. Don't worry, I won't blame him."Mrs. Tanner Sr. had said too much, and her spirits seemed

"Did he really just fall out of love?" she wondered, but her gut told her something else."Mrs. Tanner Sr. said he changed completely after he struck it rich, but my father says otherwise." Thomas shook his head in response."Maybe his feelings just changed," Kisa mused, though she still had her doubts about Adrien.'It's not impossible for a man to ditch his girlfriend once he becomes wealthy. But even his own mother says he has changed, and that's odd. What if he isn't even Adrien to begin with?'The thought made her shudder, and she hugged herself tightly. It felt like she was on the brink of a significant discovery, but the more she thought, the more her mind spun.As Kisa returned to the Webb residence, she sensed a tense atmosphere in the living room. Before she could get a closer look, Mr. Webb Sr. approached her. "Mrs. Kooper, you're finally back. Mr. Kooper was worried sick."Just then, Kisa saw Gilbert sitting on the couch. His face had darkened, his aura was menacing.
