Chapter 1449
Carolyn’s eyes brightened as she heard Adrien’s words. “Wait, did I hear that right?” she asked.
Adrien chuckled, his smile looking a little too forced. “If you don’t want me to contact her, then we’ll drop the matter. We already have The Case Group, and my family’s business is more than enough to support you and Sharon. We don’t need the Kooper family’s GK.”
Carolyn’s tone turned urgent. “What are you talking about? GK is a big deal in the media industry. The Case Group doesn’t even come close to it. Adrien, did you mean what you just said? If you can really get GK, then I won’t interfere with you contacting that little… girl.”
Adrien’s lips curled in amusement. “Don’t worry. Everything is under my control. Just wait for me to give you GK as a dowry.”
Carolyn’s face lit up with a smile, and she looked like a young woman again, full of happiness and excitement, which did not quite match her age. But she did not notice the sneer and coldness in Adrien’s eyes.
After a few more days passed, Gilbert still had not returned. Kisa could not help but miss him.
One night, she stared at Gilbert’s number for what felt like an eternity, but she could not bring herself to dial it. She threw her phone aside and let out a sigh. After a while, she got up from her bed and headed toward the door.
Gilbert was not home, which was convenient for her to go to the study to look for any information on GK. She needed to do something to make Adrien completely trust her.

It was already past eleven at night, and everyone in the house had gone to bed. Kisa made her way to the study with ease. The room was spotless, but there was still a lingering scent of the man she missed. The laptop on the desk was still open, as if he had just stepped away for a moment.
