Reborn Through Fire By Kazuya Higan Chapter 503

Chapter 503 A Woman I Almost Forgot About “Haha! Sorry for making you all wait.”

The man with an outstanding aura said to Kisa and Gilbert with a smile.

Gilbert responded coolly, “No worries. We just arrived too.”

“That’s good, that’s good. Have a seat.

The man said to Gilbert and Kisa.

Kisa observed the four men in silence. She could not figure out which one of them was Mr. Tanner.

‘I didn’t expect Mr. Tanner to invite that many people. Otherwise, I would’ve looked at his photos before the luncheon. Then, I wouldn’t feel as lost right now,’ thought Kisa.

After everyone sat down, the man introduced the three men beside him to Kisa and Gilbert with a smile.

“Mr. Kooper, Ms. Becker, these are my business partners: Mr. Park, Mr. Webb, and Mr. Gates. They’ll also be investing in the drama we plan to shoot.”

After hearing the man’s introduction, Kisa was certain that he was Adrien Tanner, also known as Mr.

Tanner.

However, Jensen had always been the one to discuss their business affairs with Adrien.

That was why Kisa felt really lost when Adrien started talking about the upcoming drama they planned to film. She had no clue what was happening.

Kisa could only remain silent for fear of saying the wrong thing.

Soon after everyone arrived, the waiters brought their food to the table.

Gilbert raised his wine glass and smiled at Adrien, “Mr. Tanner, to our first meeting. Cheers!

Adrien looked like he was in his fifties, so he was more senior than Gilbert in terms of age.

‘It’s no wonder Gilbert is being so polite and respectful toward Adrien. However, it’s shocking to know that it’s also Gilbert’s first–time meeting Adrien,‘ thought Kisa.

Adrien smiled and raised his glass, “I’ve heard a lot about the CEO, Mr. Kooper. After seeing you in person today, I have to say, you’re definitely a rare young talent.”

“You flatter me, Mr. Tanner,” Gilbert smiled politely.

Just as Gilbert was about to drink from his wine glass, Davian stopped him in panic.

Davian said to Adrien apologetically, “My apologies. Mr. Kooper got injured a couple of days ago and has yet to recover. As his assistant, I’ll down this glass in his stead.”

Adrien smiled, “Sure. His health is more important.”

“Oh?” Mr. Gates suddenly gasped. He asked in astonishment, “Mr. Kooper, you’re a man with great power–you’re a magnate. Who could hurt you?”

“It’s no other than that ungrateful woman, ” Sharon responded without missing a beat.

Gilbert threw her an icy glance.

Sharon tensed up in fear and did not dare to utter another word.

Regardless, what is done is done; Sharon’s statement had piqued the men’s interests, particularly Mr.

Gates.

Mr. Gates asked curiously, “Mr. Kooper, you could get any woman with your qualities. What kind of woman would act this ungrateful and hurt you?”

Mr. Park and Mr. Webb nodded curiously.

“Yeah. We’d really like to meet that woman.”

Adrien swirled his wine glass and smiled lightly. His dark gaze was seemingly gazing at Kisa.

Meanwhile, Kisa lowered her gaze and remained silent to minimize her presence as much as possible.

Gilbert did not get angry with the few men pressing for answers.

He kept a nonchalant expression.

He smiled lightly at the men, “She’s a woman I almost forgot about, so she’s not worth mentioning.”

“Almost forgot about?”

“Uh…”

Seeing how the few men were about to ask more questions, Davian tried to change the subject. He quickly raised his glass and smiled at them, “I’d like to raise a toast to Mr. Park, Mr. Webb, and Mr.

Gates.”
