Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 152

Chapter 152 Help Me Out Tomorrow

Initially, Kelvin was shocked when she asked that question. He stared at her while looking confused, “Are you planning to play some tricks?”

“If I was planning a trick, do you think I’d ask you over?”

Kelvin tried to believe her since she was serious about it.

“Of course, I know the actual situation about Madalyn’s injury. But how are we going to dig out the truth?”

“I already have a suspect in mind, I need your help to put on a show tomorrow.”

Kelvin scratched his head, “You’re not trying to frame me, right? Why else would you ask me for help instead of Gilbert?”

Kisa scoffed, “Do you think he’d want to help me? He will only be generous and kind to others. He despises me. If I were to ask him, I’d be digging my own grave.”

He pursed his lips, “Okay then. But if you lied to me, I’ll definitely bring you down.”

Kisa’s heart dropped and she pitied herself.

‘Do these people really think that lowly of me to always assume that I’m lying to them?‘”

The next afternoon, Gilbert rushed back home.

He ran into Madalyn’s room and asked Kelvin, “What did you say on the phone? Grandma will wake up soon?”

Kisa noticed Sharon’s expression turned into panic, which affirmed her guess.

Kelvin glanced at Kisa and nodded. “Madalyn reacts well to Kisa’s voice. Since Kisa had been taking care of her these few days, it seems that Madalyn will be waking up soon. Based on my observation, she’ll wake up latest by tomorrow night.”

“That’s great!”

Gilbert moved to the bedside and held his grandmother’s hand. Those cold eyes of his were finally brimming with tears.

Kelvin looked away as he could not bear that sight.

As the saying goes, ‘the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment“.

He could not imagine how disappointed Gilbert will be when the next day arrives.

After all, he was just helping Kisa put on a show.

In the evening, Sharon cooked up a meal for everyone.

Kelvin looked at Sharon dressed with an apron. He said jokingly, “It really is an honor to have a meal prepared by an A–lister.”

Sharon laughed, “This isn’t much. All of us grew up together and we’re close. Whether I’m an A -lister star or not, I’ll always be your sister. Just let me know whenever you feel like having some of my cooking.

“Haha, she’s still the kindhearted one as always.”

Kisa quietly observed everything. All she could comment on was that Sharon was very good at acting.

After Sharon finished plating the dishes, Sharon said to everyone, “I am happy to know that Madalyn is going to wake up soon. So, I specially cooked up a feast for us to celebrate.”

Kisa stared at the dishes and started feeling cautious.

In the afternoon, when Kelvin announced the news, Sharon was panicking.

By right, Sharon would not be in the mood to cook for everyone. Unless there’s something else in these dishes.

Just as Kisa was thinking, Sharon interrupted her thoughts and said, “Kisa, when Madalyn wakes up, you better apologize sincerely. She loves you so much, I’m sure she wouldn’t blame you for pushing her down the stairs.”

Kisa sneered, “When Madalyn wakes up, the culprit won’t be able to hide anymore. It’s too early to decide who is the real culprit yet.”

“Enough. Let’s eat.”

Gilbert, who was silent the whole time, suddenly broke the silence

Kisa secretly clenched her fist under the table. ‘Even at the last second, this man still thinks of me as the culprit who tried to kill grandma.‘ However, it was because of this, she had a greater motivation to find out the truth and prove her innocence.

Kisa stared at the dishes on the table carefully. She felt nervous.

That night was a crucial time. There could not be any mistakes. Otherwise, Madalyn’s life would be in danger too.
