Chapter 988 Eavesdrop
The lights were dim in the backyard. Kisa did not watch her steps and tripped over a vine. She stepped on and broke two branches when she staggered forward.
Madalyn stared at her with a particularly gloomy expression a few meters away as suspecting she was here to eavesdrop on purpose. However, she just came over and heard nothing at all.
“Who allowed you to eavesdrop there? Get over here now!” Madalyn, believing her assumption was correct, yelled at Kisa with disgust.
Gilbert frowned and tugged at Madalyn’s arm, “Grandma, please don’t do this.”
Madalyn withdrew her arm angrily, ignored Gilbert, and just fiercely stared at Kisa.
Kisa walked toward them with a faint smile after stabilizing herself.
“What did you hear?” Madalyn’s face was tense, and she seemed a little nervous.
Kisa’s eyes twinkled, and deliberately said, “I heard everything.”
Madalyn’s face turned sour but did not show any signs of panic. Trying to probe, she said to Kisa, “Let me tell you, don’t try to use your hypocrisy to deceive the children. They are all treasures of the Kooper family and have nothing to do with you. Don’t use any of them in your schemes.”
Madalyn stared at Kisa’s face without blinking after she finished. She could not help but feel relieved when she saw no changes in the woman’s expression.
‘If she really heard everything, she would definitely be eager to recognize the kids and won’t be this calm. Humph! She’s indeed a scheming woman, trying to learn about what I have just told Gilbert. Luckily I didn’t fall for it.’
Contrasting with Madalyn’s belief, Kisa suddenly smiled lightly and said, “How would they have nothing to do with me?”
