Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 1571

Chapter 1571

[Did you like the gift I sent you yesterday?] the mysterious text read.

Kisa frowned deeply, her heart pounding as a suspicion formed in her mind.

Hesitantly, she replied: [Is this Shaun?]

[Heh, the recording yesterday was just a taste of my sincerity.Today's gift is something much grander.Have you got the guts to come?] Kisa's heart raced, as she realized Shaun knew she had recorded his conversation with Sara.He quickly sent her an address and a time.

Kisa struggled to understand Shaun's intentions.

She hastily typed a message, her fingers trembling: [What do you want?]

But Shaun did not reply.

Kisa stared at the address, her thoughts racing.

It was a hotel address, even including the room number.

Gilbert had not seen the content of her messages.

Perhaps he wanted to respect her privacy, so he did not ask any questions and quietly ate his meal.

Noticing that she had not touched her food for awhile, he placed a Swedish meatball on her plate, his voice gentle.

"Eat up; it's getting cold."

Kisa wrestled with whether or not to tell Gilbert about Shaun.

If she did not tell him and went alone to the meeting, she feared that Shaun had some devious plan to harm her.

But if she did tell him, she worried Shaun had an ulterior motive and was using this to target Gilbert.

After much thought, she decided to confide in Gilbert.

After everything they had been through, she felt it was better to face any issues together.

With that, she showed Gilbert the message from Shaun.

Gilbert glanced at it.

He then added a few more dishes to her plate, saying, "Eat while it's hot.Once we are finished, I'll go with you to this address."

Gilbert appeared calm, a faint smile playing on his lips, which gradually put her at ease.She did not allow herself to dwell on it any longer and instead focused on her meal.

The address Shaun sent was to an opulent hotel suite on the fifteenth floor.

Kisa's instinct was to leave, knowing that Shaun was trying to manipulate her.

But just as she turned to go, she heard a heated conversation between a man and a woman emanating from behind the door.

"I thought you were a master manipulator?" the man sneered.

"You managed to persuade Carolyn and Christopher to strap bombs to themselves and confront David, but you can't handle the Hoover family?"

Kisa's heart jolted, and she glanced at Gilbert.She saw his eyes narrow dangerously, a glacial coldness flickering within.

Shaun's mocking laughter echoed from the room again.

"You must've suffered a lot at the Hoover residence yesterday if you're venting your frustrations here."

"One day, mark my words, I will make all of them kneel before me and beg!"

Sara's voice was filled with bravado, but it seemed unrealistic.

Shaun let out another scornful laugh, enraging Sara further.

"It's all that wretched Kisa's fault! My only regret is not killing her when I had the chance at the Mullen residence.She should have been the one to die when the basement collapsed."
