One of the bodyguards respectfully replied, "Yes, Mr.Kooper instructed us in the wee hours of the
morning to make sure Miss Wayne gets back to her hometown today."
"In the wee hours?" Kisa furrowed her brow.
"What time exactly?"
"Probably around three in the morning," the bodyguard replied.
Kisa''s brow furrowed even more tightly.
‘Gilbert left the Webb residence around 1 amst night, so was he handling Jolina''s situationst
night?'' she wondered.
"Do you know where Mr.Kooper is now?" she asked the bodyguards.
Both bodyguards shook their heads.
Suddenly, Jolina grabbed Kisa''s hand and whispered, "Kisa, Mr.Kooper said I can leave without
worrying about Peter bothering me anymore."
"How''s that possible?"
Kisa had seen Peter go crazyst night. She could not believe he could just let go so easily and
wondered what Gilbert had done and where he was now.
"Yes, Mrs.Kooper. Mr.Kooper said that Peter won''t bother Miss Wayne anymore, so you and Miss
Wayne can rest assured," the bodyguard said.
Kisa was still full of doubt.
‘Even if Gilbert has gone to handle Jolina''s situationst night, he should have appeared by now. But
he hasn''t shown up, and his phone''s off"
This was the most unsettling thing for her. She was afraid Gilbert might get into trouble since this was
not Calthon.
"I have to go now, Kisa.You''re wee to visit my hometown next time.The scenery there is beautiful,
and you''ll love it," Jolina said.
Kisa smiled and nodded.She touched Jolina''s head and said, "I''ll definitelye visit your hometown if
I get the chance."
Then she looked at the two bodyguards and said, ''''Take good care of her."
"Yes, Mrs.Kooper."
Watching Jolina leave, Kisa felt a wave of sadness wash over her.It seemed like all her friends were
leaving her one by one.
Lea had gone, Jolina was gone, and her contact with Felicity was dwindling.She wondered when they
all coulde together and have a good time again.
That wish was starting to feel like a luxury she could not afford.She pulled out her phone and tried
Gilbert''s number again, but it was still switched off.
Gilbert hardly ever did that unless something was wrong.
The memory of her dream came flooding back, making her even more anxious.She decided to call
Davian instead.
Davian''s tone was not friendly.
"What do you want? Haven''t you caused enough trouble for Mr.Kooper?"
"Where is Gilbert?" Kisa asked, her voice low.
Davian chuckled.
"Isn''t Mr.Kooper with you? He abandoned GK just to take you to Oceanville. He knew you were stealing
GK''s confidential files and working with outsiders against GK, yet he still took you to Oceanville. GK is
finished now, are you happy? You''re absolutely heartless, Kisa!"
"GK is a topic for another day, Davian. Just tell me, did Gilbert contact you today?"
"Why are you asking? Did something happen to Mr.Kooper? I''m telling you, if anything happens to
Mr.Kooper, I won''t let you off the hook."
Kisa knew from his response that Gilbert had not contacted him. She hung up feeling troubled and
uneasy.

As she turned around, she saw a familiar figure standing across the street. It was Peter. He looked
much thinner than before, and his ck coat made him seem frail.
The coffee shop was warm, and Peter ordered a cup of coffee for her, but Kisa switched to in water
instead. He sat back in his chair, smoking and looking dejected.
Kisa reminded him that smoking was not allowed there, but he ignored her. She sighed and said,
"Jolina''s gone. You must have seen that."
Peter did not react; he just stared out the window.
A couple outside was building a snowman andughing, making Kisa envious.
After a while, she asked, "Why did you suddenly decide to let her go?"
"Last night, Gilbert came to see me."
