Chapter 1488
The next morning, Kisa glanced at the man lying by her bedside and whispered, "Maybe you shouldn't go downstairs today. I will bring your food up quietly."
Gilbert shook his head. He squinted his eyes and said, "Not showing up will only make people more suspicious."
"But your wound..."
"It's fine," Gilbert replied, opening his eyes to look at her. His dark gaze was intense, and it made Kisa's heart skip a beat.
"W-What's wrong?" she asked.
"You've suspected that Adrien is my uncle for a while now, haven't you?" Gilbert asked. Kisa did not answer.
He continued. "What do you want to do? What is your relationship with him? What are you planning?"
"He has been trying to harm both of us since Kerrona Hill, and he even wanted us to kill each other," Kisa said.
Gilbert looked at her. "So what did you hope to accomplish by teaming up with him?"
"I only pretended to team up with him," Kisa explained. "Ever since I found out that Adrien wanted to harm us, I've been acting as if I wanted to get revenge on you in front of him. I did it on purpose to make him reveal his true identity."
Gilbert did not say anything, but his demeanor remained serious and contemplative.
Kisa saw that he did not believe her and added, "I know you don't trust me right now, but it's okay. Once everything is over, you'll understand. And as for GK, Mia and I talked about it. We plan to empty GK and give it back to you when everything is settled."
"What about giving it to Jensen?" Gilbert asked, his tone neutral.
Kisa shook her head. "GK is yours. Even if you want to give it to Jensen, it should be your decision."
