Chapter 1432


    Chapter 1432 Just Treat Her as His Wife


    The driver immediately jumped out of the car after receiving Adrien’s orders.


    Adrien’s sharp eyes glinted with malice as he watched Christopher emerge from the Kooper residence.


    He thought to himself, “Those who caused me to lose everything back then won’t get off easy!”


    Christopher refused to get in the car, his eyes fixed on the man inside with disgust. Adrien, smoking his


    cigarette, chuckled softly, “If you want to know why your daughter won’t help you, then get in the car.”


    With a disgusted spit, Christopher finally got in. As they drove away, Gilbert watched the taillights


    disappear into the night, his brows furrowing.


    Kisa walked downstairs, shivering from the cold. She turned on the heater and looked at the man’s tall


    figure with a sense of distance. After thinking for a moment, she whispered, “I never thought


    Christopher woulde looking for you. He brought his downfall upon himself, so you don’t have to


    help him.”


    Gilbert reached out his hand toward the window, trying to catch the snowkes, but to no avail. He


    turned around with a face devoid of any emotion and said, “I didn’t n on helping him either.”


    Lowering his eyes, he rubbed the melted snowkes in his palm and spoke slowly, “Taking back The


    Case Group from Adrien’s hands wouldn’t be easy. I’d have to use GK’s financial power and influence


    to confront him, and in the end, GK would suffer losses. So, I won’t do anything stupid that doesn’t


    benefit me.”


    Kisa nodded and smiled nonchntly, “You’re right. We don’t have to make sacrifices for someone who


    has nothing to do with us.”


    Gilbert gazed at her and said, “He’s your father.”


    “I… never had a father, only a mother. That man is just a blood rtive,” Kisa replied as she walked


    toward him. He had been standing outside for some time, and his shoulders were damp.


    Kisa took off his ck coat and tilted her head with a smile, “It’ste. Shouldn’t we go to bed?” Her


    innocent smile was infectious.


    For a moment, Gilbert forgot all his troubles and resentments. He saw her as his wife and his beloved


    woman. But when he tried to draw closer to her, her hatred toward him and the things she had said to


    Adrien came back to him, and he could no longer deceive himself. He took two steps back and let go of


    her shoulders.


    “You should rest. I still have work to do,” he said, almost without looking at her as he turned and walked


    away.

    Kisa hurried after him, but her injured leg made her stumble and fall to the floor. Gilbert heard the


    noise, stopped his steps, but did not turn around. His tall figure seemed more distant in her eyes. She


    began to worry about misunderstandings.


    ‘But what can I do now? If I try to exin he’d only doubt me more. The only way is to show him the


    truth,’ she thought.


    She grasped the nket on the ground tightly and asked, “It’s sote and you’re still working?”


    “Hmm, you go to sleep. My child needs rest,” Gilbert replied before leaving.


    Kisa sat on the floor for a while before getting up and walking toward the bed. Shey down with her


    eyes open, unable to sleep.


    In the study, Gilbert stared at the surveince monitor with a cigarette in hand, smoking one after


    another.
