    Chapter 1452


    Gilbert pulled out a pack of cigarettes and shook one out. He instinctively reached for his lighter, but as


    he nced at the woman’s belly, he suppressed the urge to smoke. The cigarette dangled between his


    fingers as he casually observed the woman in front of him, his tone icy.


    “Why aren’t you leaving yet?”


    Kisa tucked away her thermos and whispered to him, “I’m leaving now. Rest early and take care of


    yourself.”


    She gave him a deep nce before walking out the door.


    As soon as she left, Gilbert suddenly grabbed themp and penholder from his desk, hurling them to


    the ground with a sharp motion of his hand. He stood up, hands on hips, his unexinable fury growing


    stronger. He did not know what was wrong with him. When he saw the woman, he was thrilled, but


    when she appeared before him, he was agitated. However, after driving the woman. away, he was


    even more annoyed. These conflicting feelings felt like a kind of disease that could not be cured.


    Walking to the window, he looked down. He could only see the silhouette of a car downstairs in the light


    of a streemp. A small ck shadow got into the car, presumably Kisa. But after she got in the car, it


    did not drive away, even after ten minutes or half an hour had passed.


    Gilbert’s irritation grew


    ‘What’s she up to? Is she waiting for someone there?”


    He sneered and sat back down to continue his work. As the wind and snow outside grew stronger, a


    clump of snowkes flew in andnded on his desk, melting instantly in the warmth of the room.


    He stared at the small water puddle for a long time before standing up and walking to the window. It


    had been over half an hour, but the car was still parked down there.


    ‘Is she deliberately trying to annoy me?


    He furrowed his brows and pulled out his phone, dialing Kisa’s number.


    Meanwhile, Kisa was worrying about the photocopies she was holding. She could not figure out a way


    to protect Gilbert’s GK and make Adrien think he had seeded in his n, Suddenly, her phone rang,


    and she was delighted to see it was Gilbert calling. She answered the phone eagerly.


    “Come up,” he said coldly and hung up.

    Kisa was confused for a moment, but then she looked up and saw the faint lighting from the office


    upstairs.


    ‘Does he know I’m still down here? Does he always keep an eye on me?


    She had nned to leave soon, but since he asked her to go back up, she decided to stay a little


    longer. However, the could not help but feel that Gilbert’s behavior was bing increasingly strange.


    First, he told her to leave, and now he wanted her to go back up.


    Kisa rubbed her cold hands together as she reached the CEO’s office. Gilbert was smoking by the


    window, but he had opened it, so the smoke had dissipated somewhat, though it was still chilly. Kisa


    huddled in her puffy down jacket, her nose turning red from the cold.


    “Did you call me up here for something?


    Gilbert was facing away from her and said casually. There’s a rest area inside. Don’t stay upte and


    don’t let your bad habits affect the development of my child.”


    Kisa was taken aback and stared at his back.


    ‘That’s why he called me up here? she wondered.


    “Are you going to sleep?” she asked


    Gilbert exhaled a smoke ring toward the window and said, “You can go ahead and sleep. I have


    something else to do.”
