Chapter 566 Scalding
Perhaps because of the pain from the scald on her legs or the slippery floor, Kisa failed to get up twice.
Sharon, sitting across the table, took the opportunity to taunt her. "Ms. Becker, you're really delicate; a sprained ankle has taken so long to heal."
Kisa smiled at her calmly. "Yes, I'm not delicate, just that my body is so weak that even a minor injury takes a long time to heal."
"You're so pretentious!" Mia, sitting next to Sharon, could not help but mock.
Kisa was not angry, as she was used to hearing Mia's taunts. And when Sharon heard Mia say the same thing about Kisa, she was even more triumphant and sneered at Kisa blatantly. "This beautiful woman is right; you are really pretentious. If I remember correctly, you have been like this since you were a child, making a mountain out of a molehill for a minor injury. You were in a wheelchair two days ago, so why not today? Is it because it will catch too much attention? If you were really afraid of attracting too much attention, you wouldn't have changed into a cane. A cane is not much more discreet than a wheelchair."
"Well, you are right about everything." Kisa smiled at her and was not angry. "So, are you done? I will be upstairs if you are done. Enjoy your meal."
Sharon appeared to be stunned, not expecting such a calm reaction from Kisa. "Look at her attitude; she is so arrogant." After a while, she looked at Mia, thinking she was on the same side as her. But Mia was just busy eating her food and ignored her. So Sharon
gritted her teeth and shot a glance at Kisa as she went upstairs.
Madalyn looked at Sharon and then at Emma, kneading her forehead, seemingly regretting bringing these two women along. Adrien leaned back in his chair to smoke with a smile while Gilbert silently took care of the children as they ate, as if anything that happened at the table had nothing to do with him.
