Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 279

The accompanying picture was the scene where Lea identified Sharon. And as she zoomed in, she noticed that both Sharon and Anthony were staring at Lea with intimidation. Kisa's heart skipped a beat upon seeing this. Near the end of the party yesterday, she hurried back home and did not know what happened to Lea. Carolyn, Sharon, and Anthony were all ruthless and vindictive. Kisa was afraid that they might take revenge on Lea. After all, Lea was just an ordinary person with no backing. Anxious, Kisa quickly dialed Lea's phone, but Lea did not answer despite calling her several times. As a bad feeling hit her and she became panicked, she drove to Lea's place in a hurry.

Lea rented an ordinary one-bedroom apartment, which was not comparable to those luxury apartments, but the place was clean. Kisa stood in front of the unit on the second floor, where Lea lived, and knocked on the door, but no one answered. She frowned, and the bad feeling only got stronger. She gave it a few more knocks. But still, no one answered. Just as she was about to turn around and go to the bar to look for her, the door creaked open.

She shuddered. As she turned around, she was shocked to see Lea, with bruises all over her face, appearing in the doorway. Her heart skipped a beat, and she asked through gritted teeth. "Who did this to you?"

Lea, with tears in her eyes, did not answer but just shook her head before saying, "I'm fine, Kisa. Go home. Don't worry about me."

"You are all beaten up like this, yet you say you are fine?" Kisa said indignantly and was about to enter the door. But Lea held the doorknob with one hand and the door frame with the other, blocking Kisa in the doorway, as if she did not want to let Kisa enter her house. Kisa could not help but become suspicious. Her gut feeling told her that someone must be in Lea's house, and that Lea did not let her in because she did not want her to get hurt. She became more and more worried about Lea with this thought in mind. She hugged Lea and whispered, "Don't you be afraid. I won't let anyone hurt you again."

"Kisa, I..." Lea hesitated, not knowing whether she should let Kisa in. "I-I'm sorry."

"Silly girl. How can you say such a thing? I'm the one who should be sorry." Kisa let go of her with a hint of guilt in her voice. "If it wasn't for me, they wouldn't have retaliated against you," she said, enraged to see the bruises on her face. "Tell me, did Anthony's men do these to you?"

Lea shook her head vigorously. "It's not him. It's not him."

"Then that must be Carolyn and Sharon, mustn't it?" This time, Lea said nothing. Kisa was almost convinced now. She turned around, ready to go after the vicious mother and daughter.

But Lea hurriedly pulled her back. "Forget it, Kisa. It doesn't hurt very much."

"It doesn't hurt when they beat you up like that?" Kisa was furious and hated that she had not beaten that vicious mother and daughter to death that day.

"It really doesn't hurt. It will get better in a few days."

BANG!

There was a sudden loud noise in the house as soon as Lea's voice trailed off. Lea tensed up with a flash of nervousness on her face.

Kisa frowned at seeing her expression. "Who is in the house? Is it them? Did they threaten you with something?" Fearing for Lea's safety, she pushed her away and stormed into the house with no hesitation.

"Kisa!" Lea was startled and turned around to follow her.
