Chapter 1360 More Cold-Hearted Than Anyone Else
“Uncle Adrien…” Kisa cried with anguish. “I hate him. I want revenge. I must have revenge.”
Adrien’s eyes flickered, and he said, “Calm down. Tell me what is going on.”
Kisa kept crying, and the anguish on her face seemed real. Adrien took her back to his room and poured a glass of water for her. She held the glass, her eyes looking blank, her expression full of hurt and sorrow Adrien sat across from her and asked with concern, “Tell me what happened.”
Kisa raised her eyes slowly with tears in them. I hate Gilbert, she said, with full hatred in her voice.
Adrien suddenly smiled. “I saw Mr. Kooper treat you quite well these days. In the eyes of outsiders, you two look like a loving couple.”
“Heh!” Kisa snickered sarcastically. “That’s only in the eyes of outsiders. The enmity between him and me is too deep. We’ll never be a loving couple.”
Adrien stared at her for a long time, then said absently, “I saw that you two were fine this morning. So, tell me what happened.”
“He found out the purpose of me getting close to him.”
Adrien raised an eyebrow. “Tell me more.”
Kisa gripped the glass of water tighter. “Before this, Jensen helped me find the warden, who confirmed that Gilbert was behind the fire. But before I could take revenge, he caused Jensen to fall into a coma The mixture of past and present animosity made me want to kill him to relieve my hatred. So, some time ago, I deliberately approached him, pretending to forgive him, just to gain his trust with the intention of taking away his company and the Kooper family property and giving it to Jensen. But my
power was too limited, and he found out about my true intentions. He is still the same as before, ruthless.”
She suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly and continued, “Don’t be fooled by how well he treated me. In fact, when I first approached him, he already saw through my purpose. He’s more alert and more cold- hearted than anyone else. He’s like a high king, looking down on a humble mole like me. I was like a clown, doing everything in the palm of his hand. Just like recently, I made GK Pictures sign a contract with Risen Enterprise to set GK Pictures up. On the surface, he didn’t blame me. He even indulged and spoiled me. But he knew everything. He didn’t blame me but was actually waiting for me to make bigger mistakes and expose myself.”
Adrien took out a cigarette and lit it, exhaling a ring of smoke and frowning. “It seems that Gilbert is really shrewd. He knew you got close to him to harm him, but he kept you around anyway. Why do you think he did it?”
Kisa snickered. “To laugh at my ineptitude, I guess. He was clear-headed and knew that I couldn’t fight him, so he wasn’t afraid to keep me around. Just now, he and I fell out because I just couldn’t hold back my grief and anger and moved in on him. Just a bit more and I could have stabbed the fruit knife right into his heart.”
Kisa was exceptionally gifted in acting. When she said these things, her facial expressions were so realistic that no one could doubt it.
Adrien’s expression instantly turned serious. “You almost killed him?”
