Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 83

"Hey, Ariella!"

Just as she said that, Gilbert snatched away her phone.

Kisa scowled at him angrily. He was not in a hurry to talk on the phone. Instead, he waited patiently for Ariella to finish ranting on the other side.

Gilbert only spoke when she finished ranting.

"I'm Gilbert Kooper. We suspect your assistant used GK Pictures's reputation for a publicity stunt. We are in the midst of interrogation, but don't worry. I'll arrange for a temporary assistant as a substitute."

Ariella was shocked. She was silent for a while before she replied again with a polite voice, "A-alright Mr. Kooper. I didn't expect you to pick up the phone. I-I was..."

Gilbert hung up impatiently.

After hanging up, Kisa said angrily, "What are you doing? You restricting my movements is bad enough, but now you're interfering with my work as well. Who do you think you are, trying to control my life?"

"I am Gilbert Kooper, your husband."

"Heh. My husband?" Kisa found those words very ironic.

While they were staring at each other, Kisa's phone rang once again.

Gilbert glanced at the screen, and his face twisted into a sour expression.

Initially, Kisa thought it was Ariella calling again which annoyed Gilbert. But as she took a closer look at the phone, she realized it was Howard.

"Give me back my phone."

She leaned forward to grab her phone back. But Gilbert avoided her and scoffed, "Why are you in such a hurry to answer? Just because it's your pretty boy?"

"What if I said yes? If you can't bear to hear any of this, then leave!"

Gilbert let out a laugh and declined the call.

"Let me warn you. While you're still in this country, you'd better know your place. GK Picture's reputation is not something for you to mess with. Before the truth behind this news is revealed, your phone will be confiscated."

"Grr..." Kisa gritted her teeth in anger.
