Chapter 1502
As soon as George's voice trailed off, Gilbert's hands latched onto Shaun's collar, and he pulled him close. With bloodthirsty eyes and a menacing tone, Gilbert growled, "You guys... did you hide my grandma?"
Shaun fought to free himself from Gilbert's grip, looking totally clueless." What the hell are you talking about, man? Why would we hide some old lady?" But Gilbert was not buying it and was about to punch him in the face. Shaun screamed, "You better not touch me, man! You're not a CEO anymore. If you hit me, I'm calling the cops!"
Ignoring Shaun's warning, Gilbert threw a punch toward his face. Kisa reacted quickly and grabbed Gilbert's arm. This was not like the old days when he held all the power. Kisa knew that if he started a fight now, things would only get worse.
"Gilbert, you need to calm down. Let's go look for your grandma first," Kisa said,
Gilbert flung Kisa's arm away from him in disgust. "Get the hell off me!" he yelled. "It's your fault my grandma is missing. If anything happens to her, I will make sure you pay for it."
Kisa felt her heart sink as she watched Gilbert's eyes burn with anger. She thought she could uncover Adrien's true identity without hurting anyone by pretending to work with him, but she was wrong. Her naivety destroyed GK, and now she had left Gilbert with nothing. She had no words to say to him, no explanation that could ease his pain.
Gilbert's grip tightened as he repeated his question, "I'll ask you one more time. Did you guys kidnap my grandma?"
Shaun was struggling to breathe, and his face was turning red. He shouted, "I already told you, man. We didn't take your grandma. We're just here to collect the house. She's probably out somewhere."
Davian looked at Shaun and then walked over to Gilbert. He pulled Gilbert aside and whispered, "I don't think he's lying. Mrs. Kooper Sr. was already missing when they got here."
