Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1013 You Have Your Guard Up Against Me
Kisa smiled, "I'm afraid not. I might be able to handle some other matters, but I'm afraid I'm not authorized to sign anything. Even if I did, it probably wouldn't be valid.""It won't. Mr. Kooper said before that your signature would be considered valid. After all, you're his wife, the closest person to him. Even Mr. Davian can sign on his behalf, so why can't you?"When Shaun brought this up, Kisa felt a little self-deprecated.'So, I'm really no better than Davian in that man's heart.'"Ma'am, please don't hesitate. Just help me sign this. I just arrived at GK, and I really want to leave a good impression on Mr. Kooper. I really can't lose this business."Shaun looked as though he was about to go down on his knees for her, looking extremely anxious.Remembering that Shaun was Jensen's special assistant and was loyal to Jensen, she said, "Alright, then. Let me have a look at the documents first.""You don't have to be overly thorough about it. Mr. Kooper had already seen it be
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1014 Something's Not Right
Gilbert frowned in displeasure and clasped her hand. "You're my wife. Why would I have my guard up against you? It's just that we haven't reconciled before this, and I didn't expect you to come to the office during work hours, so when I instructed the secretary, I forgot to mention you. I will tell the secretary later."Since he spoke so earnestly and explained so quickly, Kisa decided not to make an issue out of it. "So now, are we going out for dinner, or are we going home?""Wait a minute. I'm not off work yet. I still have some business to take care of.""It's six o'clock. Isn't it after working hours?" Kisa got up and said casually.Gilbert stroked her messy hair with amusement. "Six o'clock? Are you in a sleepy stupor, or you don't know how to read the clock?"Kisa subconsciously looked toward the clock on the opposing wall, and her eyes widened. "How is it possible that it is only four thirty? Is the clock broken?"Gilbert took her out of his office. "The clock isn't broke
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1015 Gilbert is Shy
Gilbert pulled Kisa over to his desk just as she walked into the CEO's office."What's up?" Kisa looked at him in surprise.Gilbert pushed a stack of documents in front of her and said with a smile, "Sign this for me so that we can leave early."Davian was sitting at the coffee table, sorting out other documents. He smiled at Kisa when he heard their conversation. "Oh yes, Mrs. Kooper, you can help. There are so many things going on lately—the acquisition of J & K Film Group and the internal affairs of GK. Mr. Kooper and I are up to our necks in paperwork.""But, I'm not familiar with GK's business. I'm afraid—""It's just signing documents. It's easy," Gilbert said, pulling a chair over for her.Speaking of signing documents, it reminded her of the documents that Shaun had just asked her to sign. So she asked Gilbert, "Is my signature valid?""You are my wife, and Davian is my special assistant. Your signatures are valid as long as they are stamped."Kisa nodded her head. She
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1016 Something My Wife Gave Me
Gilbert looked at her in bewilderment. "What are you doing? You are about to put your face on the table."Kisa grinned wryly. "Gilbert, were you shy when I complimented you on your good looks?""Heh," the man grunted proudly. "There are plenty of people complimenting me on my good looks. Why would I be shy?""Then, why are you blushing, and your ears are red too?""Is that so?" Gilbert tugged at his tie unnaturally. "Maybe it's the air conditioner." As he said that, he unbuttoned his cuffs and rolled up his sleeves. Just then, Kisa caught a glimpse of the watch on his wrist. The watch was not the one he usually wore but the one she gifted him; the one he had mercilessly slapped to the floor last time. She spent a long time picking out that watch, so she recognized it right away. He did not appreciate it at the time, and so she thought he had thrown it away."Why are you still wearing it?"Gilbert was flabbergasted. "Wearing what?""The watch. Didn't you dislike it? Give it back
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1017 I Got The Keys
Jolina turned her face, not needing his sympathy or for him to be her champion. "Get out!" She bellowed at him.Peter did not get angry like he usually would. Instead, he just pointed his chin toward the coffee table. "I got you some medication. Rub some on the affected areas."Jolina frowned, wondering how Peter found out that she was attacked. Suppressing her doubts, she walked over, picked up the medication on the coffee table, and threw it back to him. Then, she said in an icy voice, "I don't need it. Please get out." She loathed him. It was his deception and schemes that caused her to lose the person she loved the most. She trusted him in the beginning and truly considered him a friend. But, it turned out that he had been up to no good from the very beginning.Peter's face sank, but he still held back his temper."Haven't you had enough fun after all this time? Why do you still refuse to let me go?" Jolina said.Peter slowly raised his eyes and looked at her. "You always thou
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1018 A Strange Room
Kisa's eyes widened as her drowsiness was gone. She sat up and took the keys, as she asked in surprise, "How did you get the keys? Didn't Grandma refuse to give us this?""You don't need to know. I have my own way."Kisa looked at the keys in her hand. Thinking that she was dreaming, she secretly pinched herself on the leg. When she felt the pain, only then was she convinced that Gilbert had really gotten the keys. 'He's really quick!' she thought. She quietly calmed down her excitement and tried to keep her face composed so that he would not see her emotions."Looks like you are curious about what is inside those two rooms, too." Kisa deliberately smiled at him.Gilbert pulled her up. "Cut the crap. Let's go up and check it out while Grandma is still asleep.""Okay."Kisa did not even put on her shoes as she followed him outside. It was after 1.00 am, and the villa was just as quiet as last time. Except for this time, Gilbert was with her. So, she did not feel nervous anymore. E
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1019 His Parents
Kisa looked around the room. She could not just rummage around to find clues about David and Damon in front of Gilbert. So, she went to the window and peered under the white cloth, under which was a wicker coffee table and two chaise lounges. There were a few magazines on the coffee table. She picked them up and took a look. They were decades old. Next to the magazines was a small picture frame placed face down on the coffee table.Out of curiosity, she picked up the photo frame and looked at it. She was shaken by what she saw. It was a photo of a man, a woman, and a three or four-year-old child. She recognized the man, as she had seen in her mother's photo album. It was Damon, Gilbert's father. She could also immediately recognize the child, despite his boyish face. It was Gilbert. The woman was Gilbert's mother, Cynthia, it seemed. So, Kisa knew that this was Damon and Cynthia's room.When she heard footsteps approaching, Kisa hurriedly put the photo frame back in place and lowered
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1020 Their Deaths are All Your Fault
As Gilbert lifted the white cloth covering the bed, the other white cloth on the wall also dropped, revealing a large wedding photo in front of their eyes.It was the wedding photo of Damon and Cynthia. Damon was in a suit, looking elegant, and Cynthia was in a wedding dress with light makeup and a sweet smile on her face. The two of them were a perfectly matched couple. Their clean, simple smiles signified their happiness.Looking at the wedding photo, Kisa was almost certain that Damon and Cynthia were in love with each other, and that there was no room for her mother to get in the way. She wondered how such a happy and loving couple could die in a car accident. Sorrow and regret filled Kisa's heart as she looked at the two people in the wedding photo.Gilbert stared at the wedding photo. His eyes went bloodshot, and his body tensed up.Kisa cautiously tugged at him. "Gilbert, come on. Let's go. Otherwise, your Grandma—""Ahhh!"Before Kisa could finish her sentence, Gilbert sw

Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1616
In a small town in the South, a gentle breeze caressed the cheeks of passersby, creating a pleasant and serene atmosphere. This town, known for its tourism, was adorned with flowers even in its narrow alleys. The surrounding houses were all quaint inns, exuding a poetic and picturesque charm.Beneath an arching bridge, Kisa set up an easel to display and sell her paintings. She had always loved painting since childhood. Although she had not achieved great success in this field, her vivid and evocative paintings were very popular with tourists. She would sell most of her paintings every day.On weekends, Blake would join her at the stall, but today was Wednesday, and she was alone. After arranging her paintings, she had barely sat down when people began to gather around. Some admired her art, while others immediately offered to buy. Her paintings were reasonably priced, which attracted many customers."Miss, I'd like that painting of the snow-covered rose garden at night.""Alright,

In the backyard, Kohen looked at his older brother's calm expression, a hint of worry in his voice. "Bro, are you alright?""I'm fine," Hayes said, adjusting the blanket on his lap. "Tomorrow, take me to meet those medical geniuses you found.""Oh, sure..." Kohen nodded in agreement, but after a moment, he could not help but ask, "Bro, what did that woman say to you that made you change your mind so suddenly?"Hayes gazed at the stars in the sky, his voice cool and distant. "She told me she's doing well, very happy. Then she pointed out how pitiful and miserable I am right now. She asked me if I don't feel envious, knowing how well she is doing compared to me."Kohen grimaced, realizing that the woman had provoked his brother into action.Hayes lowered his eyes, a faint smile on his face. "That's right. How could I not be envious? So, I want to heal my legs, live a good life, and show her that I can do better than her."Kohen felt a pang of sympathy for his brother. From Hayes's

Mentioning Hayes, Eylul's expression became complex. "Hayes is reclusive and doesn't like to see people. Only a single old servant has been taking care of him all these years. I only met him once, back when I married Kohen."Mia's heart ached, recalling the enigmatic yet deeply emotional man. She could not help but feel a lump in her throat. "How's his health?" Mia asked.Eylul replied, "His health is fine, but his legs have remained the same. Kohen has found top orthopedic experts for him and even sought out Kelvin Hoover from Calthon, but he refuses treatment. For so many years, he hasn't even stepped outside the backyard.""You mean he's been living in the backyard all this time?" Jensen asked gravely.Eylul nodded. "Yes, Kohen wanted him to live in the main house, but he refused. He only likes staying in the backyard. Moreover, the room he stays in used to be..." Eylul glanced at Mia. She had heard that Mia used to live in that room.With a complicated expression, Mia pursed h

"Let's forget everything that just happened,' Mia said.Jensen looked up at her. In the moonlight, his eyes were deep and complex, profound and unfathomable.Mia tried to muster a smile. "You don't have to feel burdened. In a way, I forced you. And you must have always disliked me. Actually, I didn't come to you for money; I just wanted to see you. Now that I have, I should go. Jensen, from now on... take care."With that, she walked away, fearing that if she lingered any longer, she would not be able to leave. But after only a few steps, she was embraced from behind.Jensen's voice was low and hoarse. "Stay with me."Mia trembled at his words. Jensen continued. "But I still have so many things to do and someone in my heart I can't let go of. I don't know... when I will be able to give you a satisfactory answer. If you don't want to stay with me without any promises or guarantees, you can—""I'm willing," Mia blurted out, "as long as I can be with you, I don't care about anything

Mia's face changed instantly. " You... you know I like Jensen, why would you...""Heh, if you like Jensen, shouldn't you be willing to do anything for him? If you can't even do this, how can you claim to love him?""I won't do it! Doing this would be betraying Jensen. I would risk my life for him, but I can't do this."Adrien stared at her flushed face and gently chuckled, his words loaded with meaning. "Aren't you feeling all hot and bothered yet?"Mia frowned. Her body was indeed getting hotter and more agitated. 'Why would Adrien ask this? Could it be the drink...?'As the thought crossed her mind, her heart sank. Seeing Adrien's cold expression and the man's playful smile, Mia turned and ran. But before she could take more than a few steps, she was dragged back. Weakened by the drink, her desperate struggles were futile. As the man pressed her down, playing with her like a toy, she closed her eyes in despair. She thought she could never face Jensen again. With a bitter laugh,

Adrien Tanner, Jensen's father, stood before Mia with a warm smile. "My son is truly awkward when it comes to matters of the heart. He's even willing to refuse such a beautiful young woman like you."Mia stared at him, her tears suddenly streaming down her face. "I only wanted to see him, even if it was to face rejection. Wouldn't it better to say it clearly to my face?""Yes, it would." Adrien agreed. "But standing here stubbornly won't help, because he left on a business trip a couple of days ago."Mia's heart ached even more, realizing that Jensen had avoided using the front door just to evade her.Adrien continued. "I have a way to make him come to you willingly, but it depends on whether you're willing to cooperate."Mia nodded. "What do I have to do?"Adrien motioned to his bodyguard, who handed him a glass of wine. "Drink this," he said.Mia furrowed her brow, hesitant.Adrien gently patted her shoulder, like a father would."Don't be afraid. I won't harm you. From the

Filled with guilt, Mia stepped forward, but Kohen suddenly pulled out a handgun and aimed it at her."Get out!"Jensen pulled Mia back. He looked at the cold man before him. It was this man who had taken him in years ago. At that time, Kohen was young, a carefree and privileged young man. Now, he seemed to have grown up all at once, his eyes colder and more distant.Jensen said with a troubled expression, "If you ever need me in the future, don't hesitate to find me."Kohen sneered coldly; pain etched in his brow. He mocked himself. "I never should have taken you in back then. In the end, it was I who harmed my own brother."Jensen pursed his lips, not knowing what to say, only feeling an unbearable pain in his heart. It was the first time he felt he owed someone. That sense of indebtedness suffocated him."Get out, and don't let me see you two ever again."On that night, Jensen and Mia left the McCray family. As a result of Hayes's ordeal, the McCray family underwent tremendous

"What on earth happened?"Jensen did not speak. Mia choked out. "The collaboration between the Burton family and the McCray family was a trap. We were ambushed by the Burton family, and Hayes... he was hit by a car trying to save us.""Damn it!" Kohen cursed under his breath, abruptly pulling a knife from a nearby bodyguard and pointing it at them. "What are your lives worth? Why would my brother save you? Why?"Mia bit her lip, tears streaming down her face. 'It's my fault. I wanted to save Jensen, but I should have gone alone. I shouldn't have dragged Hayes into this. He seemed cold-blooded and heartless, and I never thought that he would risk his life for me. Why was he so good to me?'"Kohen..."Suddenly, a weak cry rang out. Hayes had awakened.Kohen hurriedly moved closer, gripping Hayes's hand. "Bro!"Hayes's face was deathly pale. He did not look at Kohen, but instead turned his gaze to Mia. His eyes were calm. He saw Mia's red-rimmed eyes and the tears lingering there,

Hayes was sent flying by the car, his body crashing into a wall before bouncing back.Mia's entire body felt ice-cold as she trembled, yelling, "Hayes!""Kill them all!" A hoarse, aged voice suddenly rang out from the entrance. It was Curtis. He looked at Kendall's lifeless body on the ground, his eyes filled with rage, shouting, "Run them over! I want them to join my grandson in death!""Ah!" Jensen roared, disregarding the guards' swinging knives, and like a madman, charged at Curtis. Curtis's face changed, desperately pulling a nearby guard in front of him as a shield. But it was useless. Jensen, like a crazed beast, attacked anyone in his path. Soon, his knife was held against Curtis's throat.Curtis trembled all over. "Wh-What do you want?"Jensen, covered in blood with splatters on his face, looked like a demon that had emerged from a battleground. He grabbed Curtis and held him hostage in front of him. "Let us go!""Don't even think about it!" Curtis retorted angrily. "You
