Chapter 1023 Not Even Gilbert Can Protect You
Kisa’s heart sank. But, she was going to return the keys to Madalyn. Although she had taken the two keys to the two rooms, Madalyn would surely check and would soon find out that the two keys were missing from the bunch. So, the best way was to wait for her to duplicate the keys before returning them to Madalyn.
With that in mind, she calmly said, “The key is with Gilbert.”
Madalyn frowned suspiciously. “He doesn’t have it on him.”
“Then, I have no idea. He got the keys and took me up there. He also said that he stole the keys from your safe.”
Seeing Madalyn’s increasingly suspicious face, Kisa snickered, “You don’t need to suspect me. There is no way I can guess the combination to your safe. Only Gilbert has that ability.”
“Humph!” Madalyn glared at her in disgust. “I don’t care about your intentions in
approaching Gilbert and living in the Kooper residence. I’m telling you, if you hurt Gilbert one bit, I will not spare you.”
“Come on, grandma,” Kelvin urged. “I think they really love each other. Let’s not doubt her. Come on, let’s go see Gilbert.”
Madalyn kept on grunting at Kisa in disgust. As she was leaving, she warned Kisa coldly, “Stay away from those two rooms upstairs. You better behave yourself in this house. Otherwise, not even Gilbert can protect you.”
She stood up and was about to go over to check it out when a raspy door opening sounded behind her. She subconsciously glanced back and saw the store owner yawning as he opened the door fully.
“Yo, it’s early in the morning. You want to pick a lock?”
“No, I just want to duplicate some keys,” Kisa said, and then hurriedly crossed the road. But, Lea was no longer there, and the limo was gone. She figured that Lea must have gotten into that car and left. She wondered what had happened to Lea recently, as Lea seemed like she was crying earlier and looking sad.
Inside the car, Anthony puffed irritably on his cigarette. “Who told you to come to the hotel to find me?”
