Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 238

Chapter 238 They’re Living Under Together

Jensen smiled and nodded. “Yes, but how can you guarantee that Carolyn will keep wearing the necklace? What if she doesn’t wear it?”

“I know her well. As long as she got her hands on a pair of jewelry that she loves, she would wear it for a very long time. Most importantly, their plan is to humiliate me at Kohen’s banquet. They’ll definitely make a move within the next ten days.

“I don’t need her to wear it for long. Ten days would be more than enough.”

She doesn’t have to be the old Kisa anymore, letting Carolyn and Sharon bully her anyhow they want to.

After Kisa had finished her meal at Jensen’s place, she went back to her place.

She held the tapping device and listened in until 12.00 a.m. There wasn’t any information toward the end. All she heard was the sound of snoring.

That must have meant that Carolyn and Christopher had fallen asleep.

As for Kisa, she was not sleepy at all.

She poured a glass of water and sat by the window in deep thought.

She froze as soon as she absent–mindedly gazed downstairs.

She stood up quickly and looked closely through the window.

A van was parked downstairs and a familiar figure was leaning against the car while smoking.

‘Isn’t that Gilbert?‘

‘Why is he here?‘

‘Did he find out that Jensen and I are staying here?”

‘With his resources and power, it’s an easy thing for him to find out.”

‘Why is he standing there alone, smoking?”

‘Is he trying to warn her about something?”

Kisa stared at Gilbert deeply and she clenched her fists.

Gilbert puffed out some smoke while staring at his phone quietly. On the screen was his and Kisa’s inbox.

He was constantly amending the text message and will always stop at the ‘send‘ icon after that. He could not send out that text message.

After hesitating for quite a while, he deleted the message once again and went to his contact list to search for Kisa’s number.

He stared at her number for a long while but never pressed the ‘call‘ icon.

In the end, he turned around and hit the car hood out of frustration.

The reports which Davian showed him lingered in his mind.

“Mr. Kooper, they’re staying at an estate on the south side of the city.”

“Are they staying together?”

“I–I guess so. The floor and block number matched.”

‘Wow, they’re already living under the same roof.‘

Gilbert’s knuckles were cracking from his tight grip. His face was full of rage.

Jensen leaned by the window and stared at Gilbert’s figure for a long time. His deep–set eyes contained an inexplicable confusion.

After quite some time, Jensen lifted his glass and gulped down the remaining red wine. The corner of his lips raised into a wicked smile. ‘This time around, I won’t let you win anymore.‘

“Kisa, what do you think of my cooking? Is it nice?”

“Yeah, it’s delicious. I’ve already had seconds.”

For three days in a row, Carolyn invited Kisa over for a meal and she always welcomed her with enthusiasm.

Kisa knew that they were about to make a move soon.

Carolyn served her a few pieces of meat and said in a polite tone, “Kisa, the weather has been great these days. Would you like to go for a vacation at the farm tomorrow?”

“Vacation?” Kisa pretended to be surprised and said, “Just the two of us?”

“Your dad and Sharon will be going too.”

“Is dad free tomorrow? It seems like he’s been busy for the past few days.” Kisa purposely looked toward Christopher with a concerned look.

Sure enough, Christopher avoided her eyes. He did not dare to look at her.

He then replied uncomfortably, “I won’t be free tomorrow. Y–you girls can go ahead.”
