Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1206 Eavesdropping
Kisa tugged at her collar. "Yeah, it's a little hot.""It can't be. It's late autumn. The wind is really cool, and I even feel like I'm a little underdressed," Felicity said matter-of-factly.Then, Gilbert looked up and said to her expressionlessly, "Be more subtle next time. Don't be so loud because people might misunderstand you if they heard you."Felicity was flabbergasted and frozen for a full five seconds before coming to her senses. She smacked the table and said, "Do you have nothing better to do apart from eavesdropping on our conversation?" She was normally frank and outspoken like a man, but at that moment, she was blushing upon hearing what Gilbert said.Gilbert leaned back in his chair, sipped his soup, and said, "I didn't even need to eavesdrop because you were talking so loud.""You!" Felicity's face was so red that it looked like a cherry.Kisa also felt unusually embarrassed, glaring at Gilbert across the room. "Enough of that."Gilbert lowered his eyes and imme
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1207 Like She Had Never Seen The World
"Okay... Okay..." Lea was so excited that she was about to cry. She carefully carried the gown and then headed for the restroom.Anthony snickered, as he thought to himself, 'It's just a gown, and yet it made her so happy. She is so easily satisfied.'Afraid of ruining the evening gown, Lea was extremely careful when she changed into it. She had never worn such an expensive dress in her life. The point was, it was the man she loved most who gave it to her. She suddenly had a glimmer of hope in her heart, wondering if Anthony had already started to accept her, and if it was time to tell him about her pregnancy. She thought perhaps she would mention it to him after the party was over."Are you done yet? Is it that difficult to change into a gown?" Anthony was rushing her outside.Lea quickly cut the thoughts from her mind and said from behind the dressing room door, "Alright, almost done." The gown, which was silver, was heavy and splendiferously stunning. Lea put it on and looked at

Lea nodded, feeling nervous.Anthony exhaled a ring of smoke and said, "If anyone asks what's your relationship with me, just say that you are my dance partner."Lea was disheartened, but she still nodded obediently. "Okay.""One more thing, if anyone asks you what you do for a living, you must not mention that you work as a bar girl."It saddened Lea to hear that. 'He still mind my previous occupation.' She pursed her lips. "Actually, I know little about many of these etiquettes. You can always find someone better to be your dance partner, and you won't need to—""I wouldn't have asked you if I could find a suitable partner," Anthony suddenly interrupted her with a touch of mockery in his voice.Lea bit her lower lip and stopped talking.What Anthony hated the most was seeing her servile look. He got up and said, "The makeup artist will be here in a minute. I'll pick you up at seven." He seemed as though he did not want to stay there a moment longer as he got up and went outsid

Felicity laughed and teased him, "Hey, wake up. Don't look like you have never seen a beautiful woman before," She said, resting one hand on Kisa's shoulder and smiling. "It's true that Kisa is naturally beautiful, but you shouldn't be staring at her like that. Look, you're embarrassing her."Feeling embarrassed, Kisa lowered her head. Because Gilbert was too absorbed and his gaze was so intense, she felt as though he was seeing through her clothes. She pursed her lips and then whispered to Felicity, "I won't try any more dresses. I'll just choose this one.""This one doesn't suit you," Gilbert suddenly said.Kisa looked at him in puzzlement. He had just stared at her with fascination, making her think that it was because she looked good in the dress. But now, he said that the dress did not suit her.Felicity, too, wondered why. "It doesn't suit her? Then, why did you stare at her with such fascination? What is wrong with you?""It's her as a person that fascinates me, not the out

"Okay, put it back. I'll take the red one on me."Just then, Kisa came out of the restroom. The dark purple dress on her looked even more gorgeous than the black one earlier.Felicity was depressed when she saw the stark contrast between the fashion sense of Gilbert and of Davian. Then, she started wondering why she fell in love with Davian in the first place.Kisa's fair skin contrasted nicely with the purple dress, and she looked elegant. If the black color dress was sensual, then the purple one was elegant and classy.Kisa carried the heavy dress and walked up to Gilbert. "What about this one?"The dress had a high waist-bustier ball gown design with just the right amount of detailing around the waistline, outlining the luscious upper half of her body to the fullest. With Kisa's height, coupled with the high waistline design, it made her lower body look more elongated. Even without the high heels, her body proportions still looked perfect.Gilbert raised his hand and stroked t

Kisa involuntarily shuddered a little.Her feet were a little cold, so she could evidently feel his palm's warmth now that they were in Gilbert's hands.She gripped the hem of her skirt tightly. Then, she lowered her gaze and looked at the man in front of her.Kisa watched as the man carefully helped her put on the espadrilles. Once he was done with one foot, he lifted her other foot and helped her put on an espadrille.The espadrilles were comfortable and felt soft on the step.After the man helped her put on her shoes, he smoothed out the hem of her skirt.The skirt was really long, puffy, and floor-length. So, one could not tell that Kisa was wearing espadrilles.Even though the espadrilles were flats, the soles were at least an inch thick.Kisa took a few steps, and the shoes did not show easily.Gilbert said to her, "You're not short, so there's no need to wear high heels. You'll feel tired when attending banquets like this. Wearing espadrilles will make you feel much mor

Gilbert gently hugged Kisa by the shoulder and said to Mr. Mullen Sr. with emphasis and a smile on his face.Mr. Mullen Sr. narrowed his eyes slightly.A moment later, he took a puff of his cigarette. Then, he smiled meaningfully and said, "If you hadn't mentioned it, I really would've forgotten that she's your wife. If you had known that you and your wife would end up being this loving, was there a need for you and me to leave on bad terms because of that woman?"Kisa was stunned.'Mr. Mullen Sr. must be talking about Sara,' she thought."Back then, I almost got you killed because of that woman. Do you remember?" Mr. Mullen Sr. said with a smile.However, he did not forget to observe Kisa's reaction.Kisa did not know why he was bringing this up at a time like this. Regardless, he certainly had bad intentions judging from the situation.Before Gilbert could speak, Kisa said to Mr. Mullen Sr. with a polite smile, "This happened a long ago. You have a good memory, Mr. Mullen Sr.
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1213 Are You Disciplining Your Youngest Son Again?
'People have been calling me lowly ever since I was a child. Over time, I also started to feel contempt for my mother's status and disdain toward her birth. For years, my mother and I lived in an oppressed state. Even though my mother was still considered one of my father's wives, she had to bow and scrape when she faced the first wife. Sometimes, even the first wife's servants would order my mother around,' Anthony thought.As he thought of that, the hate within Anthony grew. His resentment toward his mother had also increased.'If it wasn't for my mother's status, or if she hadn't pulled those tricks to join the Mullen family, I wouldn't have been looked down on by others,' he thought again.Mr. Mullen Sr. glanced at him and disdainfully said, "Alright. Why are you still standing here? Go see if Arthur is here yet. If he isn't, go pick him up.""Yes, dad," Anthony answered respectfully.Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the entrance of the courtyard."Oh, Mr. Mullen Sr.! Hap

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
