Chapter 1492
As Christmas drew closer, Adrien's club was buzzing more than ever. Kisa strutted straight to the VIP section. She had called Adrien before coming, so he was waiting for her in the lobby.
Besides Adrien, Carolyn and her daughter were also there, and they seemed to be practically glued to him. Everytime Kisa came around, they were all over him like white on rice. Carolyn was beaming with excitement, and Sharon was acting more snobbish than ever.
As soon as she spotted Kisa, she started sniping at her. ’Oh, I heard GK is about to bite the dust. You here to beg my dad for a lifeline?"
Kisa just chuckled and shot her a glance. "Did you fall and hit your head? Your daddy's behind bars."
"You!" Sharon glared at her, then wrapped her arms around Adrien's, trying to be cute. "Daddy, look at her. She's so rude."
Adrien patted her hand and reassured her with a chuckle. "Relax, honey. I will deal with her later. You and your mom go have some fun. I need to talk to Kisa about some important business.’
"No way. What could you possibly have to discuss with her?"
Carolyn's eyes flickered, and she grabbed Sharon's arm. "Come on. Let's go. Don't interrupt your dad's business."
They found a quiet corner, and Carolyn whispered to Sharon, "I know you hate that bimbo, but we need to focus on the big picture. Do you know why GK is about to go belly up?"
Sharon shook her head, perplexed. "Why?"
"Because that tramp has been playing dirty. Whether your dad can take over GK depends on her. So just grit your teeth for now. Once your dad takes over, you can make her life a living hell."
"Oh..." Sharon suddenly got it, and her eyes lit up with a mischievous gleam.
Kisa looked at Adrien and felt more and more convinced that he was a phony from start to finish. She did not spill the beans about his true identity, as she knew his real motives had not been revealed yet.
