Chapter 1444
‘If the car accident from yesterday was indeed Adrien’s doing, then it had to have been a twisted test of Gilbert’s love for me. But why bring Christopher into the mix? Christopher is his enemy, someone far harder to control than someone on his own team. If the only purpose was to test Gilbert, Adrien could have easily commanded one of his own people to do it.’
‘So, why Christopher? Could it be that Adrien had a more personal score to settle with Christopher, and testing Gilbert was just a side show? It seems this is just the beginning of Adrien’s nefarious schemes. It was clear that he had ulterior motives when he first approached Carolyn. And now, he has the whole of The Case Group in the palm of his hand. Everything seems like it’s part of Adrien’s sick revenge plot against Christopher. But what could Christopher have done to Adrien to warrant such an elaborate, over-the-top retaliation?”
Kisa was deep in thought.
In the afternoon, Kisa was heading to the detention center, escorted by Davian. “Mrs. Kooper, I’m at your service. If you want to go anywhere, just tell me, and I’ll take you there.”
Kisa raised an eyebrow. “Aren’t things busy at the company? Doesn’t Gilbert need your help?”
“The company isn’t busy right now,” Davian said.
“If it is not busy, then why can’t Gilbert find time to see me?”.
Davian hesitated.
“I bet he doesn’t want to see me,” Kisa muttered sullenly.
Davian’s mouth hung open, unsure of what to say. He had only been informed by Gilbert earlier this morning that he would be staying at the company for the time being. So, Kisa’s guess was spot on-Gilbert really did not want to see her.
The car pulled up to the entrance of the detention center. Davian turned to Kisa and said, “Mrs. Kooper, only one person can go in. Please go ahead, and if you need anything, just call for me out loud.”
