Semua Bab Reborn Through Fire: Bab 691 - Bab 700

Kisa was upset. She still had to think about the big picture. Those killers might not have climbed into her room from the outside, but there was no guarantee that they would not pick the lock in the middle of the night. Plus, she really did not want Gilbert to worry about her. After all, he had to drive during the day. She had once said she would drive when he felt tired, but he disagreed. Gilbert told her that killers were chasing them along the way and that her driving skills were not as good as his, so he was afraid that she could not escape in a car pursuit. Kisa had the same thought, too, so she did not insist.Gilbert was still awake, leaning against the headboard and playing with his phone. The room was lit with warm yellow light from the wall lamp, the soft light making him look more affable, unlike his prickly attitude earlier.Kisa held the quilt and stood in the doorway. Seeing that he said nothing, she scuttled toward the bed. It was a gigantic bed, but Gilbert was lying

Kisa was so tense that she dared not to move, but after Gilbert leaned over, he did not make another move, just leaning against her. After a long while, she gradually eased up when he stayed lying just like that, and his breathing became shallow. She felt his body like a ball of fire, scorching her skin as his chest pressed against her back.When she first came in, she still felt a little cold because the heating in the room was not on a higher setting. But now, she was feeling hot. She could not help but move closer to the edge of the bed. If she went further out, she would fall down the bed. It did not help that Gilbert followed her and moved closer to her as soon as she moved away.Kisa had no words. She suspected he was pretending to be asleep. The air was still, and the only sound echoing in the room was the sound of breathing. She stared at the faint glow shining through the curtains for a while and gradually dozed off. When she was about to fall asleep, Gilbert suddenly mutter

Kisa lost her appetite for breakfast. "I think it'll be more convincing if I fake my death along with you," she said to Gilbert in a serious tone. "Are you sure you can fake your own death? I'm afraid that you might actually die," Gilbert sneered.The man looked at her and said faintly, "You're not as fast nor as good at acting as I am. You'll only be holding me back if we don't split up." Kisa was speechless upon hearing this. She squeezed the sandwich in her hand, her heart feeling extremely uneasy. "Eat faster. I'll bring you to the bus station after you finish. If my predictions are correct, those people will be tailing us as soon as we leave the hotel. There'll be swarms of people at the bus station. I'll take advantage of the crowd and let you go when the time is right so that they wouldn't notice.""So you want me to wait for you at Riverton. Shouldn't you give me a time frame for when we're meeting up? I can't possibly wait for you there forever, can I?" Kisa put down the san

Kisa was disappointed when she realized it was just a spam text. She stared at her text history with Gilbert for a while; there was only the message she had just sent, while the rest was blank. She sighed softly, turned her gaze, and continued to look out the window. After waiting on the bus for more than ten minutes, several people went onto the bus one after the other. Kisa put on a mask and took out her earphones to listen to music.The bus finally started its journey at ten o'clock. The seats were almost full at that time. Sitting in front of Kisa was a young couple; the girl was intimately leaning on her partner's shoulder; it looked peaceful and serene. Kisa thought of her youth when she saw this. 'Once, our school organized a summer camp, and Gilbert—who was a few years older—tagged along, saying that it was for fun and to gain experience. We took the same bus at that time and miraculously sat together. I didn't sleep much the night before because I was so excited about the tri

"Mom, what do you know? I've done so much for Gilbert, yet he died just like that. Then what's the point of me doing so much in the past?""Shush, quiet down. Are you trying to announce to the world that you sent them to kill him?" Carolyn quickly covered Sharon's mouth and spoke seriously, " Listen to your mother. Let's not publicize this. Wait till the news outlets cover the news of that man's death, then you pretend to cry him a river.""But I originally didn't want Gilbert to die. I've said before that I wanted to have him. Now that he is dead, what am I fighting for?""You idiot! As long as he was alive, he would eventually learn about all those terrible things you did back then. If that happened, it would be your turn to die. It's fine that he's dead now. You can rest easy in the meantime," Sharon did not speak as tears fell.Carolyn hugged her and said, " Listen to me. He's dead. To us, it's absolutely a good thing. Next, you should consider how to overthrow GK Pictures."S
