Reborn Through Fire

Chapter 1433 Helping Absolve Him of Blame
His forehead creased with worry lines. She could not sleep, and neither could he. Sometimes, he felt like keeping this woman
around was nothing but torture. But he could not bring himself to let her go, he could not bear to see her leave.
The next day, the snow stopped, but the ground was left wet and slushy. Kisa was a little disappointed. As she descended the
stairs, she was surprised to find Gilbert still at home. Her disappointment vanished instantly. Limping over to the table, she
smiled at him and asked, “You just got home?”
“Mm,” Gilbert replied indifferently, his eyes never leaving the newspaper.
The servant soon brought a nutritious breakfast, along with a bowl of bone broth. The soup smelled terrible, but Kisa obediently
drank it to please her man. Just as she finished, Gilbert put down the paper and said emotionlessly, “Don’t go out these days.
Behave yourself. I will take you to Oceanville.”
The resentful look in Christopher’s eyes last night and the car that disappeared into the night I made him feel cautious. After all,
even a rabbit will bite when cornered.
Kisa nodded obediently and smiled at him in a pleasing way, “Don’t worry, I’ll be good.”
Gilbert turned his head away and did not want to look at her fake smile. But what he did not know was that it was her most
sincere smile. He returned his gaze to the newspaper.
Kisa glanced at him and whispered, “I won’t run around these days, but I want to see Jensen. Will you... will you come with me?”
Gilbert unconsciously clenched the newspaper. Kisa explained nervously, “Don’t get me wrong. I just want to see him. We stayed
in Athadale for so long, and we never visited him.”
“Even if you go, you might not be able to see him,” Gilbert put down the paper and said to her in a flat tone, “Have you forgotten
Mia’s hostility toward us?”
Kisa lowered her gaze, remaining silent. Despite knowing that Mia harbored ill feelings toward her, she couldn’t help but long to
see Jensen. It had been so long since she last saw him, and she wondered how he was doing now.
Gilbert could not help but feel a twinge in his heart as he saw the woman before him with a crestfallen expression. He
suppressed his temper and offered in a teasing tone, “Alright, I’ll accompany you to see him.”

Kisa lifted her head in surprise. “Really?”
“I, the culprit who hurt him, am going to see him. Do you think it is appropriate?” Gilbert’s voice was filled with self-deprecation.
Kisa shook her head emphatically. “I know it wasn’t you who hurt him. It was either an accident or a conspiracy that no one
knows about.”
Gilbert let out a scoffing laugh, his heart brimming with bitterness. ‘How amusing it is that she is so eager to please me that she
will go out of her way to absolve me of blame.’
Helping Absolve Him of Blame
Ignoring his laughter, Kisa turned to him and said, “Give me a moment. I’ll go upstairs and change.”
Watching the excited figure of the woman limping upstairs, Gilbert chuckled silently once again.
Although the snow had stopped, the windless and rainless weather was still extremely cold. Kisa wore a long down jacket, while
Gilbert only wore a black windbreaker. Unable to resist, she reached out to hold his hand and asked, “Aren’t you cold, wearing so
little?” But as soon as she asked, she realized his hand was unusually warm.
Gilbert withdrew his hand and coldly snorted at her. “What’s the point of wearing so much? Your
hands are still as cold as a corpse.”
The warmth in Kisa’s hand suddenly disappeared, and her eyes dimmed, but she still wore a relaxed smile on her face. “Ha-ha, I
have a cold body. I really can’t compare to you men.” She finished speaking and got into the car, while Gilbert suddenly turned
around and walked back into
the house.
