Reborn Through Fire
Chapter 886 She Will Not Hear My Explanation Kelvin was taken aback at Gilbertâs words. âWhat do you mean we donât have to look for her anymore?
Donât you want to explain yourself to her? The misunderstanding will only get worse as more time passes by.â
Gilbert stood up and walked to the window. He looked at the sky outside, which was dark, and said in a low voice, âSheâs clearly hiding from me. Whatâs the use if I find her? She doesnât believe in me anymore. That means she wonât listen to my explanation.â Gilbertâs tone was filled with unprecedented helplessness and sadness.
It made Kelvin think of when he and Gracie were about to die.
âFortunately for us, weâre both fine now. But what about Gilbert and Kisa? Their problem seems more serious than the one I had with Gracie. If Mrs. Kooper Sr. does not compromise, Gilbert and Kisa will never resolve their problems.â
Gilbert leaned against the window and looked at Davian. âHowâs the investigation regarding the warden going?â
âIâI still havenât found his whereabouts yet, sir. Jensenâs hid him well.â Davian replied with his head down. He felt useless for not being able to complete the task that Gilbert had given him. However, Gilbert did not blame him. Instead, he just said,â Continue the investigation.â
âYes, Mr. Kooper.â
Carolyn halfâlay in Adrienâs arms, peeling a grape and feeding it to him with a flirtatious smile on her face.
âCome, Mr. Tanner. Open up. Ahh,â
At first, she was reserved in front of Adrien, acting educated and reasonable. But now, she had long abandoned her ethics and reservations. All she wanted to do was to cling onto Adrien. Carolyn was in her fifties, and her body was not in the best shape.
In order to show herself off in front of Adrien, she dressed up in a sexy tube top dress with a face full of makeup. However, she did not look aesthetically pleasing. Instead, she looked like a clown, especially when she made all those tiny amorous gestures.
The corners of Adrienâs lips curled into a smile, but his brows and eyes showed indifference. He at the grapes that Carolyn fed him and halfâjokingly said, âIf Mr. Case catches us, he might rush up and fight me.â
âHah. That old man?â Carolynâs face was full of disgust whenever she heard people mention Christopherâs name. âWhen I asked him to help Sharon out, he did not have the guts to do anything but kneel and beg, that b*stard. Heh. I donât think heâd be brave enough to fight you even if you let him win.â
âYeah, Mr. Tanner. My dad is just a wimp. He would never go headâtoâhead with you,â Sharon added as she looked at him with a smile.
She continued heaping praise and admiration onto him.
âSpeaking of which, Mr. Tanner, you are the best. You are so much better than Anthony Mullen. All he does is just talk big. He never takes any action. But itâs different with you. Itâs incredible that you immediately made Gilbert and Kisa go from lovers to enemies.â
Adrien leaned back on the chair and smiled casually. âI told you long ago not to be impatient, that everything will go according to plan once the time comes, but you didnât listen.â
Sharon laughed, âIâll obey your every word in the future, Mr. Tanner.â
âNo, but itâs true. Mr. Tanner is wonderful. Now that I really think about it, how could I have been so blind to marry that useless wretch?!â Carolyn said with a look of regret plastered all over her face:
