“Do you know a man named David?” Kisa asked.
“David?”
“He used to be the eldest son of the Kooper family, Gilbert’s uncle. Gilbert’s dying to meet him, and I found out that he came to your house over twenty years ago. So, do you know him?” Kisa explained eagerly.
Thomas’ smile was warm and genuine, his expression lacking any trace of pretense. “Sorry, I don’t have any impression of that name. I’ve lived here my whole life without ever seeing a man named
David come to our house.”
Just then, Gilbert walked in. Thomas welcomed him, saying, “You’ve just gotten off the plane. Get some rest and let me know if you want to go anywhere tomorrow.”
As Thomas left, Gilbert closed the door and said nonchalantly, “If you could figure things that out. that easily, then my uncle’s whereabouts wouldn’t remain such a mystery.”
Gilbert sauntered over to the desk, his gaze lingering on the steaming dessert. He then picked it up and took a sip, and Kisa was surprised. “I thought you didn’t like that kind of dessert?” she asked.
“I’m testing it for poison,” Gilbert replied nonchalantly. “You’re carrying my child, so you need to be careful about everything.”
Kisa’s mood sank as she cast her gaze downward.
‘Why did he have to say that? It was like he took pleasure in making me miserable.’
Gilbert sat by the window, looking at her with an indifferent expression. “If you want to find my uncle, you have to do it yourself. Asking around won’t help.”
Kisa moved closer to him, “Okay, how do I start?” Even though she knew that David had disappeared from here, she had no idea where to begin looking for him.
Gilbert smirked.
“Didn’t you come here specifically for this? I thought you knew how to search.”
His tone was mocking.
“I will find a way,” she said confidently before turning and heading to the bathroom.
Gilbert, in a fit of frustration, knocked over the glass on the low table. He loosened his tie, closed his eyes, and leaned back in his chair. His eyebrows furrowed deeply, and a look of intense irritation filled his eyes. Davian had just called to tell him that Risen Enterprise had snatched yet another project from GK.
“Heh! She has really given away all of GK’s secrets to Risen Enterprise without any reservations just because it is under Jensen’s name. Well, as she wishes, I will give GK to that man. Let’s see how happy she will be then.”
The next day, Gilbert went out early with Mr. Webb Sr. Before leaving, he instructed Kisa to take care of their unborn child and to not make any impulsive decisions without consulting him first. He even threatened her that if anything happened to his child, she would be buried with him. Kisa smiled cheerfully in response. However, he did not give her a single smile or kind word.
Kisa had breakfast with Thomas. She looked upstairs and asked Thomas, “Why isn’t Peter coming down for breakfast? Is he not at home?”
“When Peter’s in a bad mood, he likes to lock himself in his room. We don’t have to worry about him.”
Kisa nodded, but she could not help but think that it did not seem like Peter’s personality at all. Peter was a bossy and dominant person, and when he was upset, he would vent his frustrations on someone. He would not lock himself in his room.
She needed to talk to Peter about it later. Jolina still had not replied to her messages, so she could also ask Peter if he knew anything about Jolina’s situation.
“Mrs. Kooper, have you decided where you want to go today?”
“I haven’t yet,” Kisa replied, smiling. “I’m not familiar with this place, so I don’t know where the fun spots are.”
“How about I take you to the most famous tourist spot around here?” Thomas offered enthusiastically.
Kisa thought for a moment and shook her head.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
