Chapter 1432 Just Treat Her as His Wife
The driver immediately jumped out of the car after receiving Adrien’s orders.
Adrien’s sharp eyes glinted with malice as he watched Christopher emerge from the Kooper residence. He thought to himself, “Those who caused me to lose everything back then won’t get off easy!”
Christopher refused to get in the car, his eyes fixed on the man inside with disgust. Adrien,
smoking his cigarette, chuckled softly, “If you want to know why your daughter won’t help you, then get in the car.”
With a disgusted spit, Christopher finally got in. As they drove away, Gilbert watched the taillights disappear into the night, his brows furrowing.
Kisa walked downstairs, shivering from the cold. She turned on the heater and looked at the man’s tall figure with a sense of distance. After thinking for a moment, she whispered, “I never thought Christopher would come looking for you. He brought his downfall upon himself, so you don’t have to help him.”
Gilbert reached out his hand toward the window, trying to catch the snowflakes, but to no avail. He turned around with a face devoid of any emotion and said, “I didn’t plan on helping him either.”
Lowering his eyes, he rubbed the melted snowflakes in his palm and spoke slowly, “Taking back The Case Group from Adrien’s hands wouldn’t be easy. I’d have to use GK’s financial power and influence to confront him, and in the end, GK would suffer losses. So, I won’t do anything stupid that doesn’t benefit me.”
Kisa nodded and smiled nonchalantly, “You’re right. We don’t have to make sacrifices for someone who has nothing to do with us.”
Gilbert gazed at her and said, “He’s your father.”
“I… never had a father, only a mother. That man is just a blood relative,” Kisa replied as she walked toward him. He had been standing outside for some time, and his shoulders were damp.
