Chapter 1265 The Secret in The Archway

Kisa said as she peered at Adrien’s expression.

Adrien nodded, “I heard about this from Mr. Mullen Sr. too. He said the eldest son of the Kooper family had hurt Ms. Mullen back then, so it’s no surprise the Mullen family don’t like the Kooper family.”

“Yeah. I want to atone for his sins, so I purposefully came over to console Ms. Mullen.”

“You’re… helping the Kooper family atone for their sins?” Adrien looked at Kisa in amusement.

He continued, “You don’t have to atone for their sin. Isn’t there Gilbert?”

Kisa shook her head. “Ms. Mullen is a good person. It doesn’t matter who’s atoning for the sins. I, too, went through similarly unforgettable and hopeless suffering, so it’s better for me to console her instead. Rather than saying that I’m atoning for the sins in the Kooper family’s stead, I’m merely standing in the viewpoint of a woman who’s gotten hurt and wants to help Ms. Mullen get better.”

Adrien nodded and said, “You’re right.”

Kisa glanced at him and said half-jokingly, “Nevertheless, why do I feel like you’re being quite attentive toward Ms. Mullen?”

Adrien maintained his composure and laughed, “Ha-ha. Just as you said, Ms. Mullen is a good person. I felt sorry seeing her like this. Besides, I have a similar physique as her beloved, so I felt even worse. That’s why I wanted to talk some sense into her and help her get better soon.”
