Kisa clenched her hands at her side, her body trembling from rage. 'How can he say the child is better off gone? It was his child. How can he?'

Gilbert tilted his head, and a fingerprint gradually emerged on his handsome face.

"You are dead!" He growled and abruptly grabbed her by the neck and pushed her against the icy wall forcefully.

"Kisa!"

"Kisa!"

Lea and Sharon rushed forward, trying to break them up, but Gilbert swatted them away.

He glared at Kisa's reddened, ugly face and sneered. "You think I will believe you if you show your love and affection for that child? Had you loved that child, you should have died with that child. Why do you still want to live?"

Kisa was so heartbroken that she almost choked. 'Yeah, why am I still alive? The moment I saw the child's body, I should have died with the child. Why am I still struggling on while at death's door?'

A moment of grief hit her, and she felt her heart tearing apart. She looked at Gilbert's disdainful face and said, "You're right. I shouldn't be alive. I should have been there for that child. Gilbert, kill me, kill me."

He glared at her. His hand clasping her neck got trembled. No one could tell whether it was because her words had affected him or he got even furious.

Seeing Kisa about to suffocate, Lea rushed up and pushed Gilbert away. "She will really die if you continue like this."

"She will die?" Gilbert sounded like he had heard a joke. "If she could die so easily, she would have died five years ago."

Lea was furious. "Can't you see she is in pain? You know nothing. She's been relying on medications to keep her going because her body has already reached its limit."

Kisa slumped to the ground in pain, her face turning pale because of the excruciating pain in her body.

Gilbert's heart was uptight, but an icy sneer rose to his face as he recalled her deception and malice. "Stop looking for sympathy. You being an assistant is simply a waste of talent; you should have become an actress."

"You—" Lea was so infuriated that she gritted her teeth.

Kisa forced herself to get up and tugged at Lea's coat. "L-Let's go."

While speaking, she looked at Gilbert and forced a smile. "You are right; yes, I was faking it."

Gilbert quietly clenched his hands at his side, his eyes full of disdain. "You're a piece of trash."

It hurt Kisa to hear him say she was trash. She clutched her hands to keep herself from collapsing. She told herself she must hold on to this last bit of dignity she had instead of showing him her vulnerability.

Lea was so outraged that she had wanted to leave long ago. Just as the elevator doors opened, she hurriedly helped Kisa to go inside without a word. But Gilbert grabbed Kisa's arm.

"You can't leave until Andrew wakes up."

'The child has been calling someone in his trance. For the sake of the child, it is best to let him see that person when he wakes up.' Remembering what the doctor had just said, Gilbert stared at Kisa.

Kisa was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat and could not say a word.

Lea was furious. "So, you mean if Andrew never woke up, Kisa would have to stay here and keep watch?"

Gilbert said nothing, just staring coldly at Kisa, never letting his hand off her.

By this time, Kisa could no longer keep herself standing, as dizziness was getting the better of her. But she did not want to faint in front of this man. Even if she died, she had to die in a place where this man could not see. She gritted her teeth and forced a smile. "I will not take care of him. Y-You either get me killed o-or let me go."

"Kisa!" Gilbert yelled, almost snapping her slender wrist.

Lea was so anxious. Seeing Kisa's face getting paler and paler, she knew that those symptoms of Kisa's illness were coming back and rushed to find the medication on her. "Did you forget to take your medication today?" Lea asked anxiously as she found the medicine on Kisa's body.

At this point, Sharon suddenly said in a sad tone, " Andrew likes you so much. If you don't want to take care of him, you should have talked to Gilbert nicely. Why pretend to be sick? That is so unbecoming of you."

"Shut the hell up, b*tch!" Lea could not help but scold as she poured out the pills from the bottle.

But the next second, a large hand slapped the bottle of medicine to the ground, and Gilbert's disgusted voice rang.

"Drop the act already, Kisa! Is it that hard to ask you to take care of Andrew? How selfish and vicious have you become? Let me tell you this. Even if you are really sick and dying, you have to stay at Andrew's side—"

PUKE!

Before his voice trailed off, Kisa suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, spattering it on his chest, dyeing the lapel of his shirt red.

    "Kisa." Lea called out in shock.Gilbert was so shaken up that he subconsciously caught Kisa as she fell. "Wh-What is wrong with you?"Perhaps even he himself did not notice his trembling voice.Kisa stared at him dead in the eye and forced a smile on her wan face. The crimson bloodstain at the corners of her lips looked horrifying. "I'm finally dying. Gilbert, are you happy now?"Gilbert subconsciously shook his head, eagerly trying to say something, but the woman in his arms slowly closed her eyes. All he heard was Lea's crying and screaming and Sharon's voice calling for a doctor. As if he did not hear all that, he carried the woman in her arms and ran straight to the emergency room. He accidentally knocked down many people as he ran, looking like a madman in the eyes of onlookers.The emergency room light came on, and he was barred from entering.Sharon pulled him to sit on the bench and comforted him. "Kisa has always been in good health. Don't worry too much."He did not r

    "Where is she? Where is Kisa?"Having soothed Andrew, Gilbert came over and saw the emergency room door wide open. There was not a single doctor inside, and Kisa was nowhere to be found.Sharon looked at the anxiety in Gilbert's eyes, and her heart was filled with jealousy. However, her expression remained gentle. "Take it easy, Gilbert. Andrew's condition—"Gilbert hissed at Sharon, not waiting for her to finish. "I'm asking about Kisa?"She was stunned. Gilbert had never yelled, not even raised his voice at her like that, since she was young. Jealousy filled her heart.But she was a natural actress. She could maintain that gentle and innocent look even if she was jealous to the point of frenzy. "Don't worry, Gilbert. Kisa is fine.""How can she be fine after vomiting so much blood?" Gilbert was frantic and searched everywhere outside the emergency room. While this was going on, Kisa's attending doctor came over."Glad you're here. I was looking for you. The patient you just br

    Outside the Kooper residence, Lea kept rapping on the gate and shouting Gilbert's name.No one responded to her. After an hour, some bodyguards came out to chase her away.Lea cried out in despair. She should have known better that Gilbert, who hated Kisa and wanted her dead so much, would not save Kisa. It was whimsy to think that he would help. She regretted coming to beg that cold-blooded man.Behind a window on the second floor, Sharon watched with a smug on her face as Lea went.'She wants to save that woman? Heck! Dream on!'Shortly after Lea had left, a car drove into the compound. George carefully carried Andrew, who had just been discharged from the hospital, into the house, with Ada following along.As he came into the house, Sharon greeted him and said gently, "You can just leave Andrew to me.""It is alright, Ms. Case. I will just carry him to his room." George avoided Sharon and headed upstairs.Sharon narrowed her eyes. 'You old coot. I will kick you out of here w

    After George finished, he did not hear Gilbert's response for a while.So he could not help but glance in the rearview mirror, only to see Gilbert had closed his eyes with no expression on his face. No one knew what was on his mind. George pursed his lips, wondering if Gilbert really did not care about his wife at all now.As it was a matter of life and death, he could not help but speak again. "Mr. Kooper, she—""Has she died yet?""Huh?"It struck George dumb when Gilbert suddenly spoke. "Who died?""Kisa."Gilbert's tone was nonchalant. He did not sound worried at all.Suddenly, George was at a loss for words."Heck!" Gilbert suddenly sneered. "Kisa is addicted to playing victims now. Next time, if you come across that woman, tell her I'm willing to give her a hand and save her the trouble of pretending if Kisa is really so eager to die."'It is ridiculous. I haven't even given her the comeuppance, and she has come to make trouble again. She is really addicted to cheating

  • Reborn Through Fire   Chapter 23 Did He Come To See Me?

    Kisa had a long, long dream. She dreamed of her skipping class and climbing over the school wall, ending up falling into the arms of a good-looking teenager. His first reaction was to throw her to the ground. Kisa later learned that the teenager's name was Gilbert Kooper.Kisa's mother, on her deathbed, told Kisa that if she met someone named Gilbert during her lifetime, she must guard him with her life because she owed him. She did not understand what her mother said, but because of her mother's words, she started to please the teenager named Gilbert in every way.It was just that Gilbert did not like her and always bad-mouthed her. But in her dream, even though Gilbert was annoyed with her, she still felt happy.Despite him being annoyed with her, he never went back on his words when he promised her something.There was no aching despair in the dream until blood slowly flooded her dream. A child was calling for his mother, his voice choking with sorrow and helplessness. She searc

    "Did you get addicted to acting, so much so that you even prepared your tears in advance after guessing I would come?"Gilbert snickered as he looked into Kisa's teary red eyes."It is just a pity that even if you cry yourself to death in front of me, I won't spare you a glance. Save your breath and stop acting pathetic in front of me." The thought of her faking her dying that day made him sick and outraged.Kisa forced a self-deprecating smile. 'He forever feels that I'm faking my tears as if I wouldn't feel sad or upset. But when Sara was in tears, he clearly felt sorry for her. That's the difference between love and hate.'Unyielding, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. "What are you doing here?""Heck! Don't you even care to ask about Andrew after causing Andrew to fall sick? You are really cold-blooded and selfish."Kisa felt uptight at the mention of Andrew, yet her tone of voice was unconcerned when she said, "That's your child, not mine.""You—" Gilbert was

    He saw Kisa holding to the wall, coughing in pain.Gilbert looked impatient and sneered. "When did you become so frail? I have said it many times; there is really no need to pretend in front of me. It won't work."Kisa quietly wiped away the blood from the corner of her mouth, looking at him with a forced smile on her pale face. "When did you acquire such a sharp eye that you could tell I'm faking it every time?" Her mockery was obvious.Gilbert snorted and got into the car.Kisa calmed her breathing down and fought back the severe pain in her lungs as she walked over slowly. He started the car as soon as she got in. She was caught off guard and thrown back into the seat, causing her to cough violently. All that filled the cabin was the sound of her coughing.Gilbert was annoyed. He sneered. "That is a realistic cough. Those who are uninformed would think you had a real lung disease."Kisa clenched the hand at her side and tried hard to fight back the tingle in her throat. Her lu

    There was a black shirt hanging in the empty closet.Kisa frowned, wondering why there was a black shirt. Judging by its size, it should belong to Gilbert. She took it out.'There were no Gilbert's belongings in this room back then. So when was this shirt brought in here? Did the maid hang it here by mistake?' It baffled her, but she did not harp on it for too long. She just put the shirt on. It was so big that it looked like an oversized dress on her body. And it smelled of tobacco, too.The thought that Gilbert might have worn this shirt before made her feel uncomfortable. But she could only put up with it while she went to see if her old clothes were still in the bedroom. She wondered if Gilbert had sent someone to pack her belongings in the basement. If he had not, she would have no clothes to change into.She opened the bathroom door and hurriedly ran to the closet. As she opened the closet, it was full of her old clothes. It surprised her that none of her previous clothes h

    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
