Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1373 A Born Beauty
The grand garden looked magnificent in the hazy moonlight. In the opulent basement, other than the exquisite decor and furnishings, there was also a natural hot spring, where steam from the hot spring imbued the entire basement, turning the place into a mysterious and otherworldly fairyland.A slender and graceful woman was lounging on a nearby couch, with a thin blanket covering half of her body and exposing a pair of gorgeous and slender legs.Mr. Mullen Sr. got up from the couch, buttoning his shirt as he said, "I heard you went to see that man last night." There was a hint of anger in his tone.The woman was not afraid of him and simply replied coquettishly, "Yes. So what?"Mr. Mullen Sr. frowned and turned to look at her. She had a chaste face, but her expression and posture were like those of a succubus, sexy and seductive. Mr. Mullen Sr.'s anger vanished when he saw her beautiful body. He softened his attitude and said, "We agreed you wouldn't go out, didn't we? It wouldn't
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1374 A Man's Pride at Work
Gilbert had previously mentioned to Mr. Mullen Sr. about visiting the 'restricted area'. Mr. Mullen Sr. told him he would think about it, but no one knew if he had decided yet.Thinking of Gilbert, Kisa seemed somewhat distracted. Gilbert had not been seen around the Mullen residence for several days, nor had he contacted her through calls or messages. Felicity had called her a few times but did not bring up Gilbert, and neither had Kisa asked. At one time, she thought that Gilbert and Davian had returned to Calthon, which would be good, because she would not have to say anything hurtful to gain Adrien's trust.Half a month later, Vivian could finally stand up, but still could not walk. The mere act of standing up brought tears of joy to her.Kisa said to her happily, "I believe you'll be walking soon."Vivian nodded excitedly.Kelvin was leaning in his chair and said with relief, "It's better than I expected. This way I can heal you as soon as possible and go back to see my Graci
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1375 Leaving Her Behind
Kisa faced Adrien's inquisitive gaze with a calm expression and said seriously, "Let's wait a few more days. I'll go back with Kelvin in a few days. Gilbert has only just gone back, and if I go back immediately, he might think I lack attitude and find me unchallenging."Adrien stared at her face for a long while but did not find any flaws. After a while, he laughed while puffing out rings of smoke. "Okay, what you said makes sense. Let's wait a few more days."Kisa's eyes flickered, and she said deliberately, "By the way, Uncle Adrien, Gilbert's laptop is still in my room. There may be GK Pictures's confidential files inside. Shall we sneak a peek at his computer, see if we can steal some of his company's confidential files? It will be a help in our bid to bring down GK Pictures," she suggested, trying to gain Adrien's trust.But Adrien's primary goal was not GK Pictures. He would not reveal himself or make a move on GK Pictures before she and Gilbert escalated their war to the deat
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1376 Visiting the Restricted Zone
"Who among you wants to visit that restricted zone tomorrow? You can all come with me," announced Mr. Mullen Sr.As his words echoed through the silent dining room, everyone present stared at him, wide-eyed. The people who were having their meals all stopped. Some people were so shocked that they forgot to chew the food in their mouth. Only Mr. Mullen Sr. was still eating calmly.Kisa broke the silence and said, "Can I join you tomorrow as an outsider?"Kelvin was also curious about the restricted zone, but he lacked the courage to explore it himself. The last time he tried, the fearsome guards scared him off.Mr. Mullen Sr. glanced at them with a faint smile. "Since I brought this up at the dinner and you all heard it, it's only fair that you get to join as well."Kisa and Kelvin exchanged excited glances.Mr. Mullen Sr. looked around the table and continued. "Since none of you seem interested, I will only invite Mrs. Kooper and Dr. Hoover tomorrow.""Me, me, me...""Dad, I al
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1377 She Will Protect Him
Kisa was startled. She felt that what Arthur said made sense. 'Is it possible that Mr. Mullen Sr. deliberately let me visit the restricted zone? Is he bringing the other members of the Mullen family to visit because he wants to eliminate her suspicion? If he really intends for me to visit the restricted zone, then there must be something related to me in that place.'Just as she was thinking so, Arthur suddenly called out, "Uncle Anthony!"Kisa instinctively turned her head and saw Anthony walking in through the side door. Having not seen him for several days, she felt he had lost a lot of weight and looked depressed. He did not respond, even though Arthur had called him twice.Arthur went straight up to him and asked, "Uncle Anthony, Grandpa is going to take us to his restricted zone tomorrow for a visit. Are you going along?"Anthony subconsciously looked at Kisa. He said nothing, and there was no expression on his face. After a while, he withdrew his gaze and entered the house e
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1378 Not Like a Normal Person
Kisa kept silent with her lips pursed. She felt she had indeed hurt Gilbert badly this time. Now, she just hoped that he would listen to her explanation later."Kisa, what's in the restricted zone?" Kelvin suddenly asked her, his eyes full of impatient curiosity."We'll find out tomorrow when we go there. Go to sleep now. It will be tomorrow after a good night's sleep," Kisa said calmly.Kelvin looked up at the sky and sighed. "I really want to go to the restricted zone now. I bet everyone in the Mullen family will be sleepless tonight."Kisa rolled her eyes. "I think the only one who'll be sleepless is you. Go back to sleep quickly. I have to sleep too."Kelvin pouted. "I'm bored. It'd be nice if Gilbert was here." He walked out while talking.Kisa's mood dampened after hearing those words.'Yeah, how nice it would be if Gilbert was here.'She did not sleep well during the night. Perhaps because she had a fight with Gilbert and felt depressed, she had been having bad dreams fo
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1379 Waiting for Nothing
"What's the deal with you asking this? Weren't you the one who noticed there was something wrong with the tea and kept asking me to switch it with you? I don't dare to take a single sip of that tea at Vivian's place.""Nothing," Kisa shook her head, lost in thought. 'The person who's been trying to harm me is hiding in the shadows. Should I pretend to have those symptoms so I can fool them?'Kelvin eagerly waited for Mr. Mullen Sr. to take them to visit the restricted zone all morning, but Mr. Mullen Sr. never showed up. The other members of the Mullen family waited, going from being excited to bored.Kelvin leaned back in his chair, constantly yawning. Kisa glanced at him. "Why don't you go take a nap? When Mr. Mullen Sr. shows up and is ready to take us to visit, I'll wake you up."Kelvin shook his head, thinking, 'I already stayed up all night. What's waiting a little bit longer?'Seeing he was so tired but still determined, Kisa said nothing more and continued to look at her p
Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1380 Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained
Mr. Mullen Sr. was leading the pack, with the rest of the Mullen family following behind. Kisa was bringing up the rear.Arthur slowed his pace on purpose to walk alongside Kisa. "Miss, I was right! Gramps just wants you to see the restricted zone. We're just tagging along because of you," he said with a cheeky grin.Kisa shot him a side-eye. "How do you know that?"Arthur nodded seriously. "I heard Gramps ask the maids where you were when he just got back. That's how I figured it out."Kisa frowned. "Really?" she whispered."Yep, for real. So, I think Gramps invited you for a special visit. But why would he do that for a stranger like you?" Arthur scratched his head in confusion.Kisa's mind was racing. 'Why would Mr. Mullen Sr. be so keen on showing me the restricted zone? Is he setting a trap for me? And if so, could he be the one behind the tea poisoning?'She tried calling Kelvin a few more times, but he still did not pick up. Kisa scowled as she looked toward the restricte

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
