Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert)

Chapter 1570

"What did it feel like to listen to them having such a good time while you hid in the shadows?"

The man was obviously teasing her.

Kisa glared at his mischievous smile, expressionlessly spat out a word.

"Boring."

'He's still so hopeless. I was talking to him about serious matters, and he was focused on teasing me.' Gilbert caught up with her, cradling her small hand in his, gently laughing.

"No more anger. Let's go back."

Kisa did not speak but let him lead her.

After a while, she could not help but ask, "What do you plan to do about Sara?"

Gilbert did not care about Sara; he casually said, "She can't steal any secrets from GK. You really think she's like you?"

The last sentence was said casually, but Kisa knew what it meant- only she could steal GK's secrets. It was not because she had any special abilities, but because Gilbert had allowed it. She looked at the hand gripping hers, following the arm, looking at his profile.

Under the moonlight, his profile was elegant and soft, no longer sinister and cold as before.

Her lips unconsciously curved, thinking, 'Everything will really get better.'

The next day, Kisa did not wake up until noon.

Last night, Gilbert had tormented her for half the night like a madman.

She thought it must have been the recording's fault.

If she had known, she would not have let him listen.

Indeed, impure thoughts were like stimulants.

When she woke up, there was no one beside her.

Thinking about how Gilbert had mentioned wanting to eat her cooking, she moved her sore and achy body, crawling out of bed.

Fortunately, there were many ingredients in the refrigerator, so she did not need to go out to buy any.

At this point, Gilbert was almost off work. She casually put on a house dress and went outside.

Just as she pulled open the door, she heard a sound in the kitchen.

She had a thought, walked quickly, and indeed saw Gilbert busy in the kitchen.

"You...didn't go to work?"

She could not hide the happiness in her voice.

Gilbert grinned at her.

"You silly girl, it's the weekend."

Kisa realized her confusion. She had been so disoriented lately, always unsure of what day it was.

"Go freshen up; breakfast is almost ready."

Gilbert smiled gently at her.

Kisa glanced at the cutting board, seeing all her favorite dishes.

The warmth in her once-cold heart grew, and her sense of happiness intensified.

But she could not help but worry if her longing for this happiness was too strong, making her fearful of losing it when it finally arrived. She went to the bathroom to wash up, feeling much more refreshed. When she came out, Gilbert had already set the table with their meal.

"After breakfast, I'll take you to see a movie, or if you would like, we can go somewhere else," he said as he pulled her to the table and served her food.

Kisa thought of the three children and said, "You spend all your time here and don't visit the Kooper residence to see the kids. Aren't you worried they will resent you?" Gilbert laughed.

"The kids are grown up and sensible now. They know they need to give us a chance to be alone together. They just want their mommy to be happy."

Thinking of the adorable children, Kisa's heart softened.

She pressed her lips together and said, "Tomorrow, I'll go back to the Kooper residence with you."

She had previously lost a child at the Kooper residence and staying there inevitably stirred painful memories. But after some time, she had slowly let go of that heartache.

The loss of that child was irreversible, but Andrew and the others were still alive and well in this world, so she wanted to spend more time with them.

Gilbert looked at her serene face.

"Alright," he replied.

Just then, Kisa's phone suddenly vibrated. She instinctively picked it up and saw a text message from an unfamiliar number.
