    ‘Could it be for me? That thought vanished without a trace as soon as she recalled the icy, mocking


    expression on his face just now. ‘He has deep resentment toward me now, so how could it possibly be


    for me?’


    Davian hung up the phone, feeling frustrated. “Lately, I don’t know what’s been going on in Mr.


    Kooper’s head, but it seems like he doesn’t want GK anymore.”


    Kelvin raised an eyebrow. “What’s going on?”


    “Risen Enterprise has been stealing all our businesstely, and they’re even getting their hands on


    GK’s confidential information. They’re always one step ahead of us, and they even swooped in and


    stole thatnd we were eyeing. And to top it off, our data systems got hacked. It’s obvious someone’s


    out to get us, but Mr. Kooper insists on going to Oceanville instead of staying and fixing the mess here.”


    Kelvin furrowed his brow and took a drag of his cigarette. “Could it be because of Kisa? After all, she


    has always wanted to go to Oceanville.”


    “I have no idea, but Mr. Kooper did bring her along. Who knows what his wife’s even doing in


    Oceanville?”


    “Rumor has it she is looking for someone.”


    “Ugh, his wife’s nothing but trouble. She’s always causing problems for Mr. Kooper.”


    Kelvin snickered. “Maybe it is because Mr. Kooper’s a sucker and lets her walk all over him.”


    “You’re the sucker.” Davian shot Kelvin a re and refused to engage any further. He suspected Kelvin


    had bullied Kisa before, so he felt guilty and defensive about her.


    After three long hours, the ne finally touched down in Oceanville. Kisa slept the whole way, only


    waking up when the aircraft lost altitude, giving her that weightless feeling.

    When she opened her eyes, Gilbert was staring at her with aplicated expression that she could not


    quite read.


    She sat up and asked him, “What’s wrong?”


    Gilbert quickly averted his gaze and spoke in a t tone, “Nothing. The ne’snded, and I was just


    getting ready to wake you up.”


    Kisa stared at his cold side face for a moment before reaching out to hold his hand. He visibly resisted,


    but she persisted, and he eventually relented.


    “When we get off the ne, there will be a lot of people, so hold my hand and guide me,” she said with


    a smile.


    Gilbert turned to look at her bulging belly and finally relented, nodding his head in agreement.


    As they left the airport, they were greeted by several people, including an elderly man in his sixties with


    a sharp and astute business demeanor. To his left was a strapping young man in his thirties, towering


    in stature and sporting a pair of sses that made him look sophisticated and refined


    Trailing behind them were a few beefy-looking guys, who seemed to be their bodyguards.


    “Hey there, Mr. Kooper Finally, you made it. It’s been a long time since west met,” the elderly man


    eximed, shaking Gilbert’s hand with enthusiasm.


    Kisa realized then that the elderly man was none other than Mr. Webb Sr., and the young man.


    standing next to him was his eldest son, Thomas Webb. Kisa could not help but wonder where Peter


    was.


    After exchanging pleasantries, Gilbert and Kisa got into Mr. Webb Sr.’s car, and he offered to take them


    to a hotel. But Kisa remembered that David disappeared from the Webb residence, so she concocted


    an excuse to visit Peter, iming that they were friends. Mr. Webb Sr. agreed, and they headed straight


    to the Webb residence.


    As they entered the mansion, several tes and bowls flew toward them. Kisa was startled and


    instinctively raised her hand to block them, but Gilbert was faster, pulling her aside to safety.
