Chapter 444 He’s A Man, After All

Feeling that Gilbert was about to get angry, Kisa decided to stay silent and not push the issue any further. She merely smiled and said to him, ” Thanks.”

Gilbert coldly huffed and furrowed his menacing eyebrows. Kisa faked a smile as she broke loose from his grip,” It’s getting late. I’ll be returning to my room first. You should rest early too.”

Gilbert chuckled and spoke to her from behind,” Are you only going to treat me decently when you need something from me?”

He had felt something off when Kisa started treating him so well. Turns out she had something to ask of him. She had been like this from the start. Her kindness toward him had always harbored hidden

intentions behind it. This was the part of her he hated the most, yet it was the part of her that he was the most helpless against.

Kisa stopped in her tracks and did not speak. Gilbert then pulled at his tie irritatingly. He leaned back onto the sofa and quietly stared at the maroon tie in his hands. His furrowed brows lightened up a bit in the end. At least she had picked out a tie for him.

Although that day’s happy, peaceful moments seemed like a passing facade, it had really happened. He let out a sigh of relief and closed his weary eyes.

The next day, Kisa was in shock as she read the newspaper. Lea had brought it with her and gave it to Kisa. She walked toward the kitchen to see the man who was busy making breakfast.

She whispered softly to Lea,” What’s the meaning of this?”

Lea shook her head, “I have no idea either. I was shocked too after reading the article.”

Kisa lowered her gaze and looked at the newspaper at hand – ‘International superstar Sharon Case spotted looking disheveled at a villa, suspected to have been harassed.’ The huge headline seemed blinding. Below, the headline was accompanied by a few pictures.

In the photos, Sharon was holding on to her collar, looking frustrated and angry. Her hair and clothes were a mess. From the looks of the pictures, it seemed like she had been assaulted by someone. The news articles also brazenly speculated that a mysterious man might have assaulted Sharon, and that the villa was allegedly Gilbert’s private villa.

Kisa scrunched her eyebrows tightly while she thought to herself,

‘That’s weird. Around that time yesterday was when Gilbert went to give a surprise to Sharon. What did Gilbert do to her that made her so frustrated and angry? She even rushed out of the villa in such a messy

state.‘

Lea sneaked to the side of Kisa’s ears and whispered quietly,” Kisa, didn’t Sharon tell us smugly that Mr. Kooper was about to give her a surprise yesterday? Why was she in such a state on the news today?”

Kisa shook her head, her face still shocked. Lea stretched her neck to peer into the kitchen and asked in a hushed tone, “Do you think Mr. Kooper might’ve molested her?”

Kisa instinctively rebuked,” Impossible!” Sharon could not wait to crawl onto Gilbert’s bed. If Gilbert really wanted to do something to her, she would have been delighted; why would she leave the villa in that state?”

Her appearance gave the impression of someone chased out of the villa after being bullied.

Seeing Kisa looking so sure, Lea pouted her lips,” What makes you so sure? Don’t judge a book by its cover. Don’t just look at Mr. Kooper’s handsome appearance; he’s a man after all, he…”

“Gilbert would never molest Sharon,” Kisa emphasized again. She wasn’t sure about his other matters, but she was definitely sure of this.

At that moment, Gilbert walked out of the kitchen carrying a hearty breakfast.

Lea quickly shut her mouth, not daring to say a word.

Kisa calmly folded the newspaper and placed it in front of Gilbert’s seat. The newspaper headline and pictures were facing him, clearly visible as he lowered his gaze.
