Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 38

Everyone desires the light and is trying to chase the light in their lives. But Kisa felt she could not find any more light in her life.

Suddenly, someone tall appeared not far away under the light. As if she had caught a lifeline, she desperately ran toward it. When she got closer, the person slowly turned around, and it turned out to be Gilbert.

"You deserve to die, Kisa." He laughed coldly before thrusting a dagger viciously into her heart. "You deserve to stay in the darkness of hell forever."

"No…"

Kisa awoke in horror, still feeling dull, seizing pain in her heart, as if everything in the dream was real. She stared blankly at the ceiling above her head and took a long pause before she realized that this was still the Kooper residence. It surprised her she was so resilient that she survived again. But in this case, Howard's role would not be returned to him.

"You're awake?" An icy voice sounded at the bedside, and it was familiar.

She looked toward the voice with a frown and saw a gentle and handsome-looking man standing by the bedside. Kisa recognized him; he was Kelvin from the Hoover family.

The Hoover family and the Kooper family were friends, and Kelvin had great attainments in medicine and became the Kooper family's physician after he returned from his studies. He and Gilbert were also good buddies. When she was young, she and Kelvin were playmates, but like Gilbert, Kelvin did not like her either. They only took good care of the 'innocent and kind' Sharon and always bad-mouth Kisa. In their opinion, Kisa was a person who would never feel sad and had no emotions, so they thought it did not matter, even if they hurt her.

Kelvin turned around and sat lazily in front of the window, staring at her with a bland expression. "Do you know your own health condition?"

Kisa did not reply but struggled to sit up.

Looking at her ghost-like pale and bony face, Kelvin said in a light-hearted manner, "You're dying."

Kisa still did not respond, which impressed Kelvin a bit. In the past, she had to make everyone know about her minor injuries, but now she was dying and was so calm and silent. It seemed to him that not only her appearance but also her personality had changed a lot. She almost treated Kelvin like he was not there, as she got out of bed and walked outside with difficulty.

Kelvin frowned and asked, "Where are you going?"

Kisa still ignored him.

Seeing that she was determined to treat him like non-existent, he could not help but sneer. "You can't wait to go tell Gilbert that you're dying so he can take pity on you, can you?"

Kisa looked down and chuckled.

'I don't mind if Gilbert has misunderstood me, but why does Kelvin always think the worst of me? They have really grown up in the same pants. They both think alike.' She turned around and looked at him expressionlessly. "I'm going to find Gilbert, but not to tell him I'm dying. And please don't tell him about my health, either."

Kelvin furrowed his brow. "You—"

"As you said, I'm dying, and in this remaining time, I just want to do something meaningful. That is all." Kisa said and headed outside.

Kelvin stared at her bony body as she went, a hint of bafflement flashing in his upturned eyes. 'This woman seems really different from before.'

As Kisa walked to the door, he finally could not help but say, "I can cure you."
