Chapter 1504
Kisa slowly squatted down, with Davian's last words ringing in her ears. "If I were Mr. Kooper, I would never forgive you for the rest of my life."
'Of course, after what happened, Gilbert would never forgive me,' she said in her mind.
Footsteps approached her from behind, and she mechanically turned her head. Mia stood in front of her, still as stunningly beautiful as ever, but with no trace of the seductive smile from before. Time had changed everyone, but in the end, Kisa still could not understand her. She did not even know why Mia had betrayed her. A faint pain throbbed in her belly, and she struggled to stand up, leaning on her knees. She looked at Mia calmly, without a word.
Mia smiled, apologetic and indifferent at the same time, with a hint of inexplicable emotion. ’You must hate me now, don't you?’ she said.
Kisa shook her head. She did not hate Mia; she was just disappointed.
'I thought friends could confide in each other, but apparently not. Lea could betray me for love, and Mia could stab me in the back for her own gain. Am I overestimating myself?' she thought to herself.
She did not say anything to Mia, nor did she want to investigate the reasons behind her betrayal.
'Davian's right, once the damage is done, there's no point in offering excuses,' she thought again. Exhausted, she turned around and walked aimlessly in the snow.
Mia watched her slender figure disappear into the distance, her eyes blurred with tears. She looked up, smiled, and turned to the man lurking in the corner. "Are you happy now?"
The man leaned against the wall, his head slightly lowered, his fingertips flickering with a faint spark. He smirked, a hint of self-mockery in his expression. 'Happy? I'm not even sure if I'm happy or not with the outcome.'
Kisa jolted awake, finding herself in an unfamiliar mansion. She sat up in a panic, looking around bewilderedly.
’You are awake?" A voice came from the window, both unfamiliar and somewhat familiar.
