Gilbert did not even bother to look at Sara. Kisa was suddenly reminded of her own desperate pleas for Gilbert's trust in the past, clinging to his sleeve. It was evident that

Gilbert treated her differently from Sara. When he had looked at her back then, his eyes were filled with anger, disappointment, and a hidden layer of heartache. novel.e.book Now, as he gazed at Sara, his expression was calm and detached, as if she were nothing more than a stranger.

Gilbert's indifference seemed to drive Sara into a fit of crazed laughter. She locked her eyes on Kisa, taunting. "So what if he's seen who I really am and learned about his grandma's death?

You're the one responsible for his parents' deaths, and that's an undeniable fact. You'll forever be a sinner in his eyes, always! Neither of you will ever find happiness, never!" Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Gilbert's eyes turned ice-cold, but just in time, the police arrived and dragged Sara away. Kisa stood silently at the doorway; her hand held tightly by Gilbert as he smiled softly.

"Let's go home."

After a moment, Kisa nodded with a smile. "Okay."

They both avoided any mention of his parents' deaths, as if Sara's words had never been spoken.

The sky was a vibrant blue, and the sun shone brightly. With Sara gone, it seemed as though there were no more threats looming over their relationship. Gilbert held Kisa's hand firmly and said, "I promised to take you on a trip to the South. I already prepared the itinerary, and the tickets are booked for the day after tomorrow. Any thoughts?"

A sudden realization washed over Kisa — Gilbert had been poring over travel magazines every night, planning their southern getaway. She smiled at him and replied, "I have no preferences; I trust your judgment."

On the same night, Shaun unexpectedly asked to meet her. With Gilbert away, she went alone. Her impression of Shaun was not the best, but he had undeniably helped expose Sara's true nature. At the dimly lit bar, Shaun sat isolated in a booth, his face shrouded in an enigmatic loneliness.

Kisa approached and said, "Thank you for what you did with Sara."

Shaun's half-hearted smile emerged. "Don't mention it. I wasn't doing it for you, but to avenge my boss. In his life, he truly cared for only two people — his father and... you." His gaze locked onto her as he spoke.

Kisa's lips tightened, her thoughts turning to Jensen, leaving her with a disquieting feeling.

Shaun continued. "Sara caused my boss's father's death. Naturally, I had to help him seek revenge.”

Kisa scrutinized him. He was undeniably loyal to Jensen. She softly asked, "So, why did you want to meet with me tonight.?"

"Nothing serious. I just wanted to reminisce about the past." The past, which included Jensen and Mia, was not as lonely as now. He said to Kisa, "You must still resent my boss, blaming him for the loss of your unborn child?"

Kisa shook her head. "I know he saved me from the fire. He saved both mine and Blake's lives, so no, I don't hate him."

But their once cherished bond had vanished.

Shaun chuckled. "I wonder if my boss would be relieved to hear that. It's a shame no one can reach him now."

Kisa observed the desolation in Shaun's eyes and said, " All good things must come to an end.novel.e.book Since he entrusted the company to you, give it your all and don't betray his faith."

“If my boss returns, would you... forgive him?" Shaun's gaze bore into her.

Kisa offered a faint smile. "I told you; I don't hate him. If there is no hate, where does forgiveness come in?"

Shaun fell silent, his lips pressed together. He could not discern whether her answer brought sorrow or relief.

‘With even hate gone, has their relationship dissolved into indifference, like that of strangers?' he thought to himself.

At that moment, Davian called. Kisa instinctively answered, but her expression shifted dramatically in an instant.
