Chapter 11 One Foot in the Grave
It was Ariella calling. She lived in an upscale bachelor pad.When Kisa rushed over, Ariella was triumphantly fiddling with the contract agreement on her desk. Kisa was depressed at seeing the contract she had signed five years ago.'Although I survived the fire five years ago, I'm suffering from a persistent condition that is difficult to cure, and I also have multiple burn scars on my body, making me look horrible. To stay alive, I have to take medication every day, which is expensive.'Because of my ugly appearance and health issues, I couldn't find a job and had no money. Then the mysterious person who saved me introduced me to work as Ariella's assistant, with the condition that I had to sign this agreement. I didn't think much about it at that time. All I thought was survival, so I signed the agreement,' she thought to herself.But now, thinking back, she felt something strange with the contract, and she did not know why the mystery person wanted her to sign a contract like t

Chapter 12 It's Not Like I Will Eat Him
"Ma'am, there's a painting like this in my daddy's room."Kisa was washing the vegetables, and her heart skipped a beat when she heard what Andrew said. She had given that painting to Gilbert when she was thirteen. Kisa never thought he would still keep it. She thought he probably wanted to use that painting as a constant reminder of his hatred for her. Otherwise, there was no other reasonable explanation."Wow, ma'am, your cooking smells so good." Andrew burst out in admiration when she brought the cooked dishes over.Kisa, on the other hand, did not respond to him, as the boy's deliberate ingratiation made her a little uncomfortable."Ma'am, this is the best meal I have ever had." Andrew ate with gusto, his little face full of satisfaction.Kisa stared at him with mixed feelings and felt sad. 'If my child were still alive, would he also enjoy eating my cooking?'It got dark quickly in winter. Maybe Andrew was tired; he went to bed after dinner. When Kisa tucked him in, she noti

Chapter 13 He Kisses Her
"Who is it?" Because it was late at night, she did not dare to open the door but asked in a deep voice. No one answered outside, but the knocking was incessant. She panicked but kept her breath steady."I won't open the door until you make a sound."The rapping on the door continued for a few more beats before a low, suppressed yell came. "Kisa Becker!"She shuddered. 'It is Gilbert's voice. He is still haunting her like a ghost. I should have known it; as long as I'm still in this city, I can never get away from him. But is he coming here in the middle of the night to settle a score with her, or to get his son back?'"Open up! Kisa, open up!"Kisa was so afraid of him that she would not open the door. She dragged the table over to block the door, crawled under the covers, and waited quietly, thinking he would leave when he had had enough.As expected, there was no sound outside after a short while. She waited for a while longer to make sure there was no sound outside before she

Chapter 14 Why Should I?
Kisa's eyes widened in shock in an instant. She could not believe that he was kissing her.'Isn't he disgusted with me?'Kisa came to her senses and struggled to break free. But Gilbert suddenly rested his head on her shoulder, motionless. She quietly calmed herself down and gave him a push. "Gilbert, you…"Just then, he fell limply to the ground. It was apparent that he had one too many.Kisa sneered as she figured Gilbert had just mistaken her for Sara. That would explain why he kissed her. She shot a faint look at the man on the ground, then spun around and went back inside. While she was leaning her back against the cold door, an evil thought came to her mind.'If Gilbert freezes to death outside tonight, I will have avenged my child's death, and there will be no more threats to my life going forward. But…'She hesitated as she looked over at Andrew, who was sleeping soundly on the bed. She realized that Andrew and Ada were good kids. She would feel sorry for them if they los

Chapter 15 Something Happens to Andrew
She looked up and was surprised to see a handsome face.It was Howard Mullen, the second male lead character in the Goddess of My Adoration drama series.Howard helped up Kisa like a gentleman and frowned at Ariella. "I remember you are playing the heroine's mother, right? Only half an episode is scheduled for the afternoon, so why are you rushing your assistant like this?"Howard used to be an obscure actor paired with Ariella, so Kisa still had an impression of him. It was just that she and Howard had never spoken. It really surprised her this time that Howard stood up for her.Ariella squinted at Howard. "She is my assistant. It is my business how I discipline her. Besides, you landed on the role of the second male lead just by luck, so why are you a busybody here?"Howard did not dwell on the issue with her but looked at Kisa with concern. "Are you okay?"Kisa shook her head. "Thanks a lot just now.""No problem at all." Howard smiled and left.Murmurs rang out all around.

Chapter 16 Differentiated Treatment
When Kisa rushed to the hospital, Andrew was being treated in the emergency room.Her face turned slightly pale as she sat down on the bench, at a loss. Andrew still looked fine in the morning. She wondered why he was suddenly sent into the emergency room.Lea was anxious. "I saw that boy's face unusually rosy today. He seemed to have a mild fever, so I had him drink a lot of water. But he suddenly fainted on the floor at noon. It scared me to death!"Seeing Kisa's pale face and silence, Lea held her hand to comfort her. "Don't worry. It might just be a normal fever."'He wouldn't have been admitted to the emergency room had it been just an ordinary fever. Andrew's condition should be very serious.' A pang of guilt washed over her as she thought about how out-of-place Andrew had been this morning.She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and blamed herself. "I actually noticed something wrong with him this morning. I should have brought him to the hospital first thing in the mor

Chapter 17 Are You Even Human?
Kisa took a deep breath and quickly fought back her sadness."Kisa," Sharon walked up to her with a clear tone of reproach, "How on earth did you take care of Andrew? You can't just mistreat him because he is Gilbert's child with someone else. The child is innocent.""What do you mean?" Lea immediately said defiantly. "What do you mean mistreat? No one would expect the child to get sick, okay? And when he is sick, Kisa is also anxious, okay?""But why was it such a coincidence that Andrew got sick just after he arrived at your place?" Sharon questioned, staring at Kisa.Kisa did not make a sound, and Sharon continued, "You know, Andrew has been weak since he was born. His lungs are not well developed, and minor sickness can induce a major illness. That is why Gilbert has been taking care of him meticulously.""What?" Kisa was uptight upon hearing that."Forget it." Sharon's expression finally eased up. "Leave before Gilbert notices you. He really hates you this time. He said you

Chapter 18 You're a Piece of Trash
Kisa clenched her hands at her side, her body trembling from rage. 'How can he say the child is better off gone? It was his child. How can he?'Gilbert tilted his head, and a fingerprint gradually emerged on his handsome face."You are dead!" He growled and abruptly grabbed her by the neck and pushed her against the icy wall forcefully."Kisa!""Kisa!"Lea and Sharon rushed forward, trying to break them up, but Gilbert swatted them away.He glared at Kisa's reddened, ugly face and sneered. "You think I will believe you if you show your love and affection for that child? Had you loved that child, you should have died with that child. Why do you still want to live?"Kisa was so heartbroken that she almost choked. 'Yeah, why am I still alive? The moment I saw the child's body, I should have died with the child. Why am I still struggling on while at death's door?'A moment of grief hit her, and she felt her heart tearing apart. She looked at Gilbert's disdainful face and said, "You

Chapter 19 I'm Finally Dying
"Kisa." Lea called out in shock.Gilbert was so shaken up that he subconsciously caught Kisa as she fell. "Wh-What is wrong with you?"Perhaps even he himself did not notice his trembling voice.Kisa stared at him dead in the eye and forced a smile on her wan face. The crimson bloodstain at the corners of her lips looked horrifying. "I'm finally dying. Gilbert, are you happy now?"Gilbert subconsciously shook his head, eagerly trying to say something, but the woman in his arms slowly closed her eyes. All he heard was Lea's crying and screaming and Sharon's voice calling for a doctor. As if he did not hear all that, he carried the woman in her arms and ran straight to the emergency room. He accidentally knocked down many people as he ran, looking like a madman in the eyes of onlookers.The emergency room light came on, and he was barred from entering.Sharon pulled him to sit on the bench and comforted him. "Kisa has always been in good health. Don't worry too much."He did not r

Chapter 20 What Should I Do to Save You?
"Where is she? Where is Kisa?"Having soothed Andrew, Gilbert came over and saw the emergency room door wide open. There was not a single doctor inside, and Kisa was nowhere to be found.Sharon looked at the anxiety in Gilbert's eyes, and her heart was filled with jealousy. However, her expression remained gentle. "Take it easy, Gilbert. Andrew's condition—"Gilbert hissed at Sharon, not waiting for her to finish. "I'm asking about Kisa?"She was stunned. Gilbert had never yelled, not even raised his voice at her like that, since she was young. Jealousy filled her heart.But she was a natural actress. She could maintain that gentle and innocent look even if she was jealous to the point of frenzy. "Don't worry, Gilbert. Kisa is fine.""How can she be fine after vomiting so much blood?" Gilbert was frantic and searched everywhere outside the emergency room. While this was going on, Kisa's attending doctor came over."Glad you're here. I was looking for you. The patient you just br
