Reborn Through Fire By Kazuya Higan Chapter 1440


    Chapter 1440


    Gilbert sat slumped against the headboard of the bed, while Kisay beside him. A heavy sense of


    gloom surrounded him, and his eyes were half-closed. Kisa stared at him, her eyes wide open, fixated


    on his chiseled jawline.


    Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, Gilbert spoke. “Did you wish for me to be hit by a car just


    now?”


    Kisa blinked, then shook her head. “No, of course not.”


    Gilbert’s lips twisted into a cold smirk. “Really? You may not want me dead, but you certainly don’t


    seem to care if I suffer.”


    Kisa sat up and reached for his wounded arm. “You are bleeding badly. Let me help you.”


    “Get away from me,” Gilbert snapped, his arm iling.


    Kisa was thrown off the bed andnded hard on the floor, her stomach hurting from the impact. She


    looked up at Gilbert, hurt and confused.


    “Don’t y dumb with me,” Gilbert said, his eyes filled with anger. “I may be worried about this child,


    but I’m not stupid.”

    Kisa said nothing but turned her back to him andy down on the bed, rubbing her stomach. Her


    stomach was hurting, but she tried to convince herself that it was not that bad. Maybe if she justid


    down for a bit, it would go away.


    Gilbert gazed at her silhouette, agitated beyond measure. He got up and staggered out of the room,


    mming the door shut behind him.


    She looked back and felt a pang of sadness. This silent treatment was unbearable, and she had no


    idea what Adrien was plotting. She wished he would just make a decisive move to end it all.


    Kisa drifted off to sleep. Later, she was awakened by the shrill ring of her phone. The room was still


    dimly lit, and the gray sky outside seemed to match her mood. She fumbled for her phone and saw that


    it was Adrien calling.


    “Kisa, are you okay?”


    She feigned confusion and asked, “Uncle Adrien, why are you suddenly asking me this?”


    “It’s your dad,” Adrien said. “He came to mest night, and I think he’s lost his mind. He said he wants


    to kill both you and your sister because you won’t help him. I thought it was just crazy talk, but today I


    followed him and saw him try to run you down with his car. Are you okay?”


    Had she not seen through this man’s true face, she would have been easily fooled by his seemingly


    sincere and harmless words. Suppressing a coldugh, Kisa obediently replied, “I’m fine. Gilbert got a


    few cuts and bruises, but he’ll be okay.” Her casual tone fooled Adrien into thinking she was not worried


    about Gilbert’s injury. As expected, Adrien had been the one spying on them from the shadows.


    Adrien was silent for a moment before saying, “I’m d you are okay. However, from what happened, it


    is clear that Gilbert still cares about


    you.”


    “So what if he cares about me, Uncle Adrien? As I have said before, I won’t let go of the hatred in my


    heart, no matter how much he cares.”


    “I understand, but why not take advantage of this opportunity and feign concern for him? Act like you


    care about him. If he trusts you again and confides everything to you, even thepany’s secrets,


    won’t it make it easier for us to seek revenge?”


    “Feigning concern for him?”


    “Exactly, look at yourself today. He got hurt trying to save you, yet you treated him so coldly. Isn’t that


    pushing him even further away? I want you to stay by his side to manipte him.”


    “But I’ve used this tactic before, I’m afraid he won’t fall for it.”
