Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert)
Chapter 404

Chapter 404 What Else Do You Want From Me?

Gilbert opened his eyes instantly and checked on the woman beside him. Kisa appeared to be in a terrible nightmare. Her hands were flapping while she shook her head in horror.

Gilbert's eyes went dark. He held Kisa's hand, embraced and soothed her, "It's okay. I'm here now. You're alright."

Kisa struggled in his embrace for a moment and finally settled down. Gilbert hugged her tightly, brokenhearted. The usual Kisa in front of Gilbert was like a hedgehog with all spikes poked out. Gilbert could not imagine how scared she was today to show such vulnerability before him.

Gilbert stroked Kisa's back, again and again, trying to soothe away her fears. Kisa frowned and let out a murmur in agony. After some time, she slowly opened her eyes. She leaned on his shoulders absentminded, feeling the warmth of his comfort. A hint of mockery slowly appeared as she raised the corner of her lips.

She took a deep breath and said monotonously, "Those people... wanted to ruin me."

Gilbert's heart trembled, and he tightened his arms around her, " It's okay. Everything's fine now."

"It was Sharon. Those people worked for Sharon."

Gilbert frowned, his squinted eyes fierce, "Sharon?"

Kisa struggled out from his embrace, sneered, and looked at him, "You don't believe me, right?"

"It doesn't matter if you believe me or not," Kisa interrupted, afraid to listen to his heartless words. She held back her tears and looked out the window, "I didn't expect you to anyways. You wouldn't even mind if she kills me, right?" Kisa's smile to him was pale and sarcastic. Gilbert wanted to reply, but like his voice trapped in his throat, he could not speak. His silence made Kisa shake her head and laughed at herself. "No matter what wrong she does, you'll always let her be. Heck, you'll even protect her. Am I right?"

Gilbert took a deep breath, feeling suffocated by the heavy atmosphere, and said in a deep tone, "That's it. You should head up. Take a hot shower and change into new clothes. Or else you'll get sick." Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Hah!" Kisa scoffed, her voice filled with grievances. "Why the kindness now, when you indulged her in harming me? So what if I get sick? Why does it matter to you? Honestly, you don't have to pretend to care for me. Your concern seems really fake to me."

Gilbert gradually clenched his fist, the warmth and tenderness in his eyes were gone. He dismissed himself, "You played me and hurt the people around me. I should have torn you to pieces, but I didn't have the heart to. I have beer really tolerant of you. What else do you expect from me, Kisa Becker?"

'She would not believe any of my confessions, care, and feelings for her. We were enemies after all. This was the limit of my tolerance. I have no idea how to treat her any better,' Gilbert thought.

Kisa turned her face with tears falling uncontrollably. She sobbed out, "I expect nothing from you. I never wanted anything from you

in the first place."
