Kisa cocked her head in confusion.

"Say what?"

"Nothing."

Peter chuckled and walked out of the coffee shop, wrapped up in his coat like a burrito.

Kisa stood there like a deer in headlights.She could not do anything but wait for Peter's message.

When she got back to the Webb residence, it was snowing again.

Mr.Webb Sr. and Thomas were posted up in the living room.

Thomas kindly passed her a hand warmer, saying, "Mrs.Kooper, it's freezing outside.You should stay in and chill until the weather clears up, then I'll take you around Oceanville."

Kisa smiled.

"I went to see my friend.She's leaving Oceanville, and I wanted to say bye.Gilbert thought it was too cold, so he told me to come back, and he will take care of it."Mr.Webb Sr. raised an eyebrow and chuckled.

"Did Mr.Kooper help you see your friend off? That must be why I didn't see him this morning."

"Haha, yeah, he will be back tonight." Kisa grinned.

But Thomas probed, "Your friend… she isn't the woman that Peter held captive, is she?"

Kisa's smile faded, and she nodded.

Thomas fretted.

"What if Peter finds out? He's stubborn as hell. If he knows that woman bounced from Oceanville, he'll go crazy."

Kisa's tone was sharp and indignant as she spoke, "I'd rather have him go insane than drive someone to their death."

Thomas pursed his lips and explained, "We let Peter act out because we saw how he was obsessed with that woman. Luckily, it didn't cause any serious consequences."

Since she was at the Webb family's place, and Thomas was being so nice to her, Kisa did not want to say anything else.

She simply said, "I'm going to rest upstairs. We'll be hanging around your house for a bit longer. Once Gilbert is done with his business, we'll head back to Calthon. You are welcome to come visit us there."

"Haha, Mrs.Kooper, you're too kind. Go rest upstairs."

But just as Kisa had taken a few steps toward the staircase, Mr.Webb Sr. called out to her.

"When did Mr.Kooper leave?"

Kisa furrowed her brows slightly and turned around, her face already plastered with a smile.

"He left last night at midnight. I asked him to help me take care of my friend."

"Oh..."

Mr.Webb Sr. chuckled meaningfully.

"It seems like your friend is very important. Mr.Kooper had to personally escort her back." Kisa smiled through pursed lips.

"Yeah, she's my best friend. And with Peter being so unstable, I was afraid he might bother her again, so I had Gilbert take care of her."

Mr.Webb Sr. was about to say something else when Peter suddenly returned.

Thomas was startled and hurried to greet him, "You, uh… when did you leave?"

Peter ignored Thomas and walked straight to Kisa; his eyes bloodshot as he glared at her.

"I saw it. I saw Gilbert escort her out of town."

Kisa quickly caught on and spoke coldly, "Even if you saw it, so what? She's already left Oceanville and started a new life. Please don't be so obsessed."

"That's impossible! I'm telling you, no matter where she runs off to, I'll catch her and bring her back. You and Gilbert might be able to hide her for now, but can you hide her forever?"

Thomas quickly tried to calm Peter down.

"Peter, come on, there are plenty of other fish in the sea. Is it really worth it to go crazy over one woman?"

He motioned for Kisa to go rest upstairs. He was afraid that Peter might lose his mind and hurt someone like he did last night.

Kisa gratefully smiled at Thomas and then turned around, quickly making her way up the stairs.
