Chapter 1211 I Believe You Should Address Her as Mrs. Kooper

Kisa involuntarily shuddered a little.

Her feet were a little cold, so she could evidently feel his palm’s warmth now that they were in Gilbert’s hands.

She gripped the hem of her skirt tightly. Then, she lowered her gaze and looked at the man in front of her.

Kisa watched as the man carefully helped her put on the espadrilles. Once he was done with one foot, he lifted her other foot and helped her put on an espadrille.

The espadrilles were comfortable and felt soft on the step.

After the man helped her put on her shoes, he smoothed out the hem of her skirt.

The skirt was really long, puffy, and floor-length. So, one could not tell that Kisa was wearing espadrilles.

Even though the espadrilles were flats, the soles were at least an inch thick.

Kisa took a few steps, and the shoes did not show easily.

Gilbert said to her, “You’re not short, so there’s no need to wear high heels. You’ll feel tired when attending banquets like this. Wearing espadrilles will make you feel much more comfortable.”

Felicity was stunned at the sight of this.

‘Earlier on, I thought he was not right in the head for giving Kisa a pair of shoes that did not match her outfit at all. But now, I think he’s really thoughtful,’ she thought.

Felicity promptly turned to Davian, “Look at how thoughtful and considerate Mr. Kooper is, and then look at yourself. You worked this many years for him for nothing. You didn’t learn any of his good traits.”

‘There she goes again!’ thought Davian thought.

Davian lowered his head and felt speechless.

‘If I were like Mr. Kooper and had given her a pair of espadrilles, she would’ve scolded me for being not right in the head. That’s how unreasonable this woman is,’ he thought again.

When Kisa felt the softness of the espadrilles, she felt a warm feeling coursing through her

heart.

She looked at the man in front of her and said sincerely, “Thank you.”

Gilbert did not answer and returned to the couch. Then, he picked up the magazine and continued reading.

Kisa pursed her lips.

‘While this man can be very thoughtful at times, his thoughtfulness comes with a little awkwardness. Sometimes, it makes me wonder if it’s because he doesn’t know how to express himself. He had the intention and did something considerate, yet he just doesn’t say things that’ll make people happy,’ she thought.

Felicity hired a few stylists and makeup artists to come over.

By seven o’clock, they had all gotten ready.

It was nightfall. The Mullen residence looked grandeur and brightly lit.

Their massive courtyard was luxuriously decorated, lively, and bustling with people.

Several rows of expensive cars were parked outside the courtyard.

Gilbert and the rest came together in a car with Davian as their driver.

When they arrived at the Mullen residence, they looked at the courtyard from outside. They saw that a number of people were already there.

And, a security guard was guarding the door.

Gilbert walked up and handed his invitation.

The security guard glanced at it and respectfully said, “Please enter, Mr. Kooper.”

Since Kisa and Felicity came with him, they did not even have to show their invitation.

Just as they walked into the courtyard, a gray-haired elderly man with a healthy complexion came walking pver with a cane.

Kisa had met this elderly man once. He was Mr. Mullen Sr., the star of tonight’s banquet.

“Oh my, you’re here, Mr. Kooper. Didn’t you say you were busy?”

Kisa recalled that the Mullen family and Gilbert did not quite see eye to eye. However, they seemed friendly on the surface.

Gilbert smiled at him politely. “It’s your birthday banquet. Of course, I’d come. I burned the midnight oil for two consecutive nights and finally finished the work in hand. Only then did

I have the time to come over.”

“Ha-ha! I’m honored,” Mr. Mullen Sr. said as his gaze shifted to Kisa.

Kisa could not find the words to describe the look in Mr. Mullen Sr.’s eyes, but it made her feel uncomfortable.

“Oh my. Superstar Kisa is here too.”

“I believe you should address her as Mrs. Kooper.”
