Reborn Through Fire Chapter 1546
Gilbert raised his hand to knock, then hesitated and lowered it, caught in a loop of uncertainty. After the third time, he steeled himself and knocked softly. Silence answered him. His eyes brimmed with a somber darkness, heavy with sorrow."I know you're not asleep yet; you just can't bear to face me."At this late hour, Kisa lay wide awake. Insomnia had become her frequent companion, and he was all too aware of it. As the darkness in his eyes deepened, any lingering light vanished. A quiet, bitter laugh escaped his lips, and he began to turn away. Just then, the door cracked open ever so slightly.Kisa concealed herself in the shadows, her heart aching with grief, confusion, and helplessness. Yet, redemption seemed out of reach. The night was eerily silent, their breaths the only sound echoing in the darkness.Gilbert wrapped her in a tender, protective embrace. They lay entwined, bodies pressed close, yet it felt like an abyss separated them. She seemed to be walling herself off

A bustling silhouette reflected on the kitchen's glass door. Intrigued, Gilbert walked over and slid it open.Sara instantly greeted him with a radiant, tender smile. "You're awake! I made breakfast, so go freshen up and we can eat." Her hands moved with practiced grace as she prepared the meal.Gilbert could not take his eyes off her, and for a fleeting moment, she morphed into Kisa in his mind. Now, even the simplest scene seemed beyond his reach.Suddenly, a pair of delicate hands encircled his arm. Sara gazed at him with worry. "Gilbert, what's wrong? Did you not sleep well?"With stoic composure, Gilbert gently pulled his arm away."It was Kisa who asked you to stay," he said quietly.Sara's lips tightened, her head lowered, appearing both vulnerable and blameless."I know. None of you ever welcomed me. From the start, I've always been an unwanted presence.""What is it that you want?" Gilbert inquired, a hint of detachment in his voice. "Aside from love, I can give you an

The more tenderly he treated her, the more she was haunted by the memory of his parents' deaths and her role as the transgressor. She had stolen their lives, shattering his once-blissful childhood. Yet he never broached the subject of his parents' demise in her presence, fearing it would distress her. They both avoided the topic, but that did not mean it ceased to exist.April's embrace graced the park, casting vibrant scenery and rejuvenating air all around.As Gilbert held her hand, guiding her along the cobblestone path with few passersby, she felt a wave of comfort she had once yearned for but believed unattainable. Now that she had it, her heart could never return to the innocence it once knew. She had grown reticent, often relying on Gilbert to initiate conversations. He would ask, and she would respond. He never found it tiresome and treated her with the same delicate attention as one would a first love.As twilight enveloped them and a cool breeze kissed their skin, Gilbert

After a long, intensely passionate moment, Kisa finally found a deep slumber in the latter part of the night. Gilbert tenderly held her delicate hand in his, marveling at the daintiness of her fingers. He could not believe that this was the woman he had adored since their youth. Despite the many trials and tribulations they had faced, he could not help but feel grateful that fate had brought them back together.He pulled her closer, her body enveloped in his warm embrace. Softly, he whispered into her ear, "Together, we will find true happiness."She seemed to have heard him, murmuring a gentle "Mm," like a content kitten snuggled in his arms.The next morning, Kisa awoke to find Gilbert gazing at her with a look filled with passion and intensity.Startled, she asked, "What's going on?"Gilbert flashed a playful grin."Nothing, just admiring how angelic you look when you are asleep."Kisa looked away, not responding. Lately, she had become more introverted; in the past, she woul

"Can you believe it? Miss Mitchell's been in there for over an hour. What on earth could they be doing?""Your guess is as good as mine. But remember, Miss Mitchell was Mr. Kooper's first love. Talk about a blast from the past.""No kidding. She was his moon and stars, the one who drove him wild. What do you think they're up to, all alone in there for so long? Wink, wink."A few gossipy employees snickered and shot glances her way, making sure she caught every word. Kisa held her head high, ignoring them as she marched forward. Just as she reached the CEO's office door, someone blocked her path."Excuse me, ma'am. Mr. Kooper is currently tied up. Please wait a moment."Kisa replied coolly, "Then please inform him that I'm here."The assistant appeared uneasy. "Mr. Kooper doesn't like to be disturbed when he is busy. It's best if you wait for a while."From behind her, the snide remarks and smirks resumed."Looks like Mr. Kooper's first love is back in town. Time for someone to

Upon seeing her frozen in place, Gilbert's eyes widened as he grasped the situation. Gripping her arm, he asked with urgency in his voice, "You don't think I'm involved with her again, do you?""No," Kisa replied, her gaze fixated on the food. "I just can't eat here."A spark of intrigue flashed across Gilbert's face as he scanned their surroundings. "Where would you like to eat, then?"It was quite a rare occurrence for Kisa to express a preference. His heart swelled with excitement, and he carefully covered the food, his eyes never leaving her."I want to eat in the employee cafeteria," Kisa said, her lips pressed together.Gilbert's eyebrow arched in surprise, and he chuckled. "What made you suddenly want to eat there? I thought you usually despised crowded places?"As he spoke, he stood up, balancing the food container in one hand and guiding her with the other as they made their way outside.Kisa remained silent; her eyes cast downward. In reality, the gossip she had overhe

Sara laughed sarcastically. "Well, I guess I didn't give you enough credit. But do you honestly think that Gilbert's love for you guarantees a happily ever after?"With a tinge of jealousy in her eyes, she scoffed coldly. "You truly believe he will forget his parents' tragic end? Don't kid yourself. You're both living a lie. Sooner or later, your problems will resurface. You will forever be his enemy, and your peaceful life together is just a fantasy."She lowered her voice, ensuring only Kisa could hear.For Kisa, Gilbert's parents' untimely death weighed heavily on her heart. Whenever it was brought up, she felt overwhelming despair and sorrow. She could not change this brutal reality, but in Sara's presence, she hid her heartache.Remaining composed, even wearing a faint smile, she retorted, "So what? Even if we can't be together in peace, you won't stand a chance."Sara's eyes narrowed malevolently. "You think I care? If his love is out of reach, I'll take something else."Ki

"No way!" Kisa blurted out, trying to stand up and escape.But Gilbert pulled her back in an instant, even positioning her provocatively on his lap. This pose might have been fine at home, but at the office, it felt incredibly awkward. If someone walked in, she would be mortified.Squirming to get up, she pleaded. "Gilbert, quit it! I want to go home.""I just need your help."Kisa hesitated, momentarily forgetting her attempts to break free. "Help with what?""I have loads of documents that need organizing. Help me out, and then we'll head home together."Kisa's brow furrowed instinctively. "Why not let your Miss Mitchell assist you?"Gilbert's face darkened. Feigning annoyance, he flicked her forehead. "I don't like her hanging around.""If you don't want her here, then why did you hire her as your secretary? Watch out; she might try to uncover your company's secrets."Kisa deliberately shared this concern, hoping he would remain cautious.He scoffed disdainfully. "She's no

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
