Chapter 817 Not A Step Away
In front of him was the assistant that Madam Kooper Sr. had gotten for him. His name was James
Porter. Madam Kooper Sr. exclaimed that his job was demanding and knew he was on a business trip
at Athadale this time, so she purposefully let James come along to take care of him.
She said it was to take care of him, but Gilbert knew clearly in his mind that Madalyn was having
James monitor him to confirm whether he and Kisa had genuinely broken up. Madalyn was adamant
about separating Kisa from him.
James was creeped out from the stare of Gilbert’s gaze. He respectfully stood before Gilbert and spoke
carefully to him, “Mr. Kooper, your phone has been ringing for a while. You don’t want to listen to it for a
bit?”
“There are numerous harassment calls these days. No need to care.”
“Oh…” James nodded and still felt uncomfortable. He did not dare to stand in front of Gilbert, but
neither did he dare to sit down. He could only stiffen his body while standing there.
Gilbert got up to sit by the window. James immediately followed him.
Gilbert scrunched his brows slightly, “What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”
“No problem, no problem. It’s just that Madam Kooper Sr. ordered that I should take care of you and
not take a step away from you while doing so. Since I have been paid by the madam, it is natural that I
perform this duty properly.”
Gilbert sneered out a laugh and looked at him playfully, “Not a step away? By this saying, even at night,
you want to stick close to me to sleep?’
James‘ expression changed drastically, and he shook his head anxiously, “No, no, no… Mr. Kooper,
you must truly be joking. I wouldn’t dare stick close to you to sleep.”
“Didn’t you say not a step away?”
“I…” With his face filled with distress, James did not know what to say.
Gilbert furrowed his brows in irritation, “Fine, get out of here quickly. Don’t interrupt
my rest.”
“But Madam Kooper Sr. said…”
“But with you here, I can’t rest. Are you following me here just to disturb my rest or take care of me,
hm?”
Seeing Gilbert’s face shows a glint of anger. James, in the end, did not dare say anything and walked
out in silence.
Gilbert let out a sigh, speechless. He really had no idea how to handle his grandmother. If it weren’t for
the fact that this person had been sent by his grandmother, he would have made the man leave early
on.
But it was plain to see; making Madalyn accept Kisa was nearly impossible. He really could not
understand why Madalyn was so stubborn.
The truth about the incidents that happened during those years was understood. Kisa actually did not
do anything at all back then. He still could not understand why Madalyn hated Kisa so much. He
irritatingly pulled at his tie and then pulled out his phone.
The phone displayed Kisa’s two missed calls. With a moment’s hesitation, he immediately called back.
Kisa was lying down on the bed, seeing if the incident of her taking revenge on Sharon was posted on
the internet. Just as she was looking for some keywords, her phone rang. She glanced at the
displaying caller ID, and the corner of her lips twitched upwards.
After a while, she flipped over and tapped her finger on the answering button.
“What are you doing?” Gilbert’s deep voice asked the most ordinary question ever. His tone had a
sliver of pamperedness.
Kisa chuckled. She twirled the corner of the sheets and said, “Not doing anything, just thinking… You
acted like you did not know me just now. Your acting seemed quite real.”
Gilbert’s face fell. ‘Is this woman being petty? Blaming me for ignoring her just now?‘ He thought.
He explained, “I did not act like I did not know you on purpose. You know as well due to my
grandmother, the news about our reconciliation cannot be known by the media.”
Kisa smiled but purposedly did not make any sound. Gilbert felt uneasy in his heart and softened his
tone, “Are you…angry?”
