Chapter 813 She’s Overestimating Herself
“After I picked up the phone, she started hurling insults before I could even speak. She called you heartless, ruthless, and cunning for partnering with Sharon to set her up. She also mentioned that she wouldn’t let you get away and that she’ll definitely get back at you and Sharon and make you two end up miserable.”
Hearing Madalyn’s words, Gilbert could not help but picture Kisa hurling insults.
He unconsciously let out a laugh.
Madalyn immediately frowned, “What’s the matter? You seem pretty happy about her hurling insults at you?”
The smile on Gilbert’s face dropped abruptly. Then, he responded coolly, “Of course not. I’m laughing at how she’s overestimating herself by thinking she can beat me with J & K Film Group. She’s underestimating me. Hah, she’s saying that she’ll make me miserable, but does she have what it takes?” When Madalyn noticed the contempt and iciness in Gilbert’s words, the suspicion on her face gradually dissipated.
She snorted icily, “That’s true; that woman doesn’t have what it takes to beat us. If it weren’t for Jensen, she would’ve died long ago.”
Gilbert felt a twinge in his heart when he thought of how Kisa almost died.
“What else did that woman say after that?” Gilbert asked in a calm voice.
“Nothing much; she hung up right after she finished insulting you. I was so angry! I immediately called her back so that I could retaliate. But that wench didn’t pick up!”
Hearing this, Gilbert thought in amusement, ‘When Kisa called me, she must’ve figured out the person on the other end was grandma when nobody spoke for a while. Hah, that woman’s pretty sharp–witted.”
“Hmph! I’ll let it slide this time. If she calls to insult you again, I’ll definitely make her pay!” Madalyn snarled.
Gilbert held her hands with a smile, “Alright, grandma. Don’t be angry. She’s prattling because she’s incapable. She wouldn’t call me to vent if she were capable, right?”
Madalyn nodded.
“You’re right. However, what did she mean about you working with Sharon to set her up?”
“How’d the heck I know? She’s always saying that I set her up every time anything happens. I’m used to it by now.”
Madalyn nodded again before asking worriedly, “You… You’ve completely broken it off with her?”
