Chapter 51 Could She Be Your Wife?
The door was pulled open, and Anthony appeared outside the door with a wicked smile on his face. "You left so early just now. I wonder if you're unhappy because I have not shown you enough hospitality." He leaned against the door with his hands in his pockets, but his eyes looked past Gilbert into the room.Gilbert did not expose him, just calmly turning his body sideways. "You came over here so late. You're not here to apologize to me, are you?""Of course. After all, it is not like you would come here every day. So, as the host, I have got to receive you with warm hospitality." While speaking, Anthony walked in uninvited. The word 'host' also clearly declared that this was his territory.Gilbert sneered. When he saw Anthony's eyes drifting around, he smiled and asked, "Are you looking for someone?"Anthony's eyes turned to the couch, and he sat down. He then lit a cigarette, crossed his legs, and said casually, "No. I just want to see if you have hired any call girls. If not, I c

Chapter 52 How Can I Protect Her?
Gilbert squinted and clenched his teacup.Anthony unceremoniously entered the bedroom as if a visitor, checking the cabinet and going around to the bathroom.Gilbert was relieved when Anthony did not find the woman. He lowered his eyes and laughed sarcastically. "You are interesting, Anthony. Those who don't know would think that you are here looking for your cheating girlfriend."Anthony had egg on his face when he did not find Kisa. He chuckled. "I just want to see if you really did not have any call girl here." Gilbert was sipping his tea casually, a stark contrast to Anthony's impatience. He carefully gazed at Gilbert's expression, but he could see not the slightest flaw on his calm face. He frowned. 'Could it be that he wasn't the person who saved the ugly woman?'As Anthony was thinking, Gilbert suddenly looked at him. "It is getting late now. I have a meeting tomorrow. If you don't want to leave, you can stay for the night. It is just that I don't have any women here. So I

Chapter 53 Are You Crazy?
"G-Gilbert."Kisa scaled the wall with difficulty, barely supported by her feet, with only eight inches of protruding edge of the wall."Are you crazy?" Gilbert yelled, reaching out to grab her.Kisa was scared to death, breaking out in a cold sweat and shivering from the icy wind.Gilbert felt a bit relieved when he finally got hold of her cold hand. Good thing she was so light. He then lifted her in like a tattered doll.Kisa breathed a sigh of relief as soon as her feet landed, and her body fell limply to the floor.Seeing her pale face, Gilbert reached out and closed the window. "At least you are smart enough to know where to hide. But this is the 30th floor; if you make the slightest mistake, you will fall to your death." Gilbert said casually, but deep down inside, he was in trepidation. He always claimed that he wanted this woman to die, but at the critical moment, he still wanted this woman to live. He could not explain these contradictory thoughts."You think I want to

Chapter 54 You Really Don't Give Up, Do You?
"The way things are going right now, I don't know if I can still get back to Calthon safely. I-If I do unfortunately die here, please give the role back to Howard." If death was inevitable, then she would like to die for something worthwhile.'It is Howard again. How dare she follow me to Athadale for Howard and cause all this unnecessary trouble?' Gilbert's chest heaved violently with anger and a touch of unknown emotion. He paced to the window with his arms akimbo. He then took a deep breath, turned around, and sneered at her. "You really don't give up, do you?""I won't give up begging for you until you give Howard back his role.""Heh!" Gilbert laughed. "Why should I give it back to him? Do I owe him anything?""What does it matter if you grant me this small request when I'm now suffering from an unwarranted disaster because of you? Also, you also said that if I die, you will return his role to him.""Then let's wait until you are dead," Gilbert said, walking over to the bed.

Chapter 55 Not Interested In You
"Trying the same old trick of climbing into my bed again?" The voice that came abruptly startled Kisa, who almost dropped her phone on the floor. She panicked and looked toward the sound and found a flickering spot of fire at the window. Gilbert was not sleeping but smoking in the darkness of the night. Since he was not sleeping, Kisa went straight to turn on the light. As the light came on, she saw his cold and despicable handsome face.He looked like he had God's favor; he not only was rich and powerful but also had a face that made women jealous. It was a pity that his unfeeling expression ruined the good-looking face.Gilbert exhaled a smoke ring and chuckled. "You are really desperate for Howard, eh? Unfortunately, even if you stand in front of me naked, I will not feel a thing. So, save your breath." He had just calmed his anger down earlier, and now this woman came in to piss him off again.Kisa ignored his cynicism and asked calmly, "Do you have an extra quilt?"Gilbert w

Chapter 56 Leave Me to Die
"Hah. You're so keen to die just so that Howard would have his role back?"Gilbert sneered while walking toward Kisa.Just as she was about to respond, he spoke again."Let me tell you something: even if you actually die, I still won't give him the role."Hearing this, Kisa gave up on explaining to him. 'He's so awful; he never keeps his words,' she thought.In a fit of rage, Gilbert barged over and pushed her back several steps."If you want to die, go ahead. Just stop giving me any more trouble.""I'm giving you trouble? " Kisa slammed the door angrily. "Ask yourself this: who's the one causing trouble here at Athadale?" she continued shouting."You!" Gilbert retorted."Me?" Kisa asked."If you hadn't followed me to Athadale for Howard, you wouldn't have been spotted by Anthony. I also wouldn't be held back right now for trying to protect you. You're a burden.""Me... A burden?" Kisa was furious. "I wasn't following you! I was spotted by Anthony because of you! What'

Chapter 57 Come with Me
Kisa peered at Gilbert's face while holding her breath. She had a feeling that something had gone wrong.After Gilbert hung up the phone, Kisa could not help but ask, "What's the matter?"Gilbert had a grim expression."Stay here, and don't go out.""How about you..."Gilbert made a beeline for the door, "I've got something urgent to do. I'll be back soon."When he got to the door, he turned to Kisa once more."Remember, don't go out," he said coldly."Okay..." Kisa responded. Then, Gilbert rushed out the door.Kisa stared at the shut door, wondering what caused him to be so worried.She proceeded to open the lunch box on the table. When Kisa saw the lunch box filled to the brim with steak, she could not help but frown.'Gilbert must think I've never had the chance to eat steak. He brought me such a huge box of it!' she thought.The steak looked and smelled delicious. However, Kisa was not able to stomach it for now. She pushed the steak aside and started eating the s

Chapter 58 It's a Trap
"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

Chapter 59 You're More Ruthless Than You Seem
"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

Chapter 60 Work With Me
"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
