Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert)
Chapter 1542

Chapter 1542

The most profound sorrow comes from realizing you have reached an age where regrets can no longer be mended.

Kisa stared at the bent silhouette of the flower farmer and, suddenly, it was as if a revelation dawned upon her.

Turning to the man beside her, she whispered, "Let's... give it a try."

Gilbert shuddered, his eyes brimming with excitement. "What did you say?"

"Let's... try to be together again."

In an instant, Gilbert pulled her into a fierce embrace. "As long as you're willing to start over with me, I believe that everything will get better."

Kisa did not dwell on the future. As she gazed at the clouds on the horizon, she was struck by the vibrant, endless blue. It felt as if her world had suddenly burst into brilliant light.

On their way back, Gilbert asked Davian to pick up the children and bring them to the Kooper residence. Meanwhile, he and Kisa discussed their upcoming vacation. He wanted to take her away, just the two of them, to clear their minds and replace solace. He asked Kisa where she would like to go. She dreamily spoke of places with mountains, water, and eternal spring. Gilbert's mind immediately leaped to a magical spot in the south.

He said, "I know of a quaint town in the south where it's like spring all year round. There are majestic mountains, crystal-clear waters, and ancient buildings. The streets and alleys are adorned with flowers, and the scenery is breathtaking. You will fall in love with it."

As Gilbert painted a vivid picture, Kisa could almost see the enchanting landscape. She nodded. "Yes, let's go there."

"Alright, I will book the plane tickets as soon as we get back, and we will leave tomorrow."

"Perfect." Kisa's smile warmed him, and for the first time in days, her once lifeless eyes sparkled with a hint of hope.

Gilbert gazed deeply into her eyes, his heart swelling with tenderness. He was certain they would overcome this, and together, they would replace happiness.

The moment the car arrived at the apartment building, Kisa's gentle smile evaporated. A fragile, slender figure stood at the entrance-it was Sara. She had lost a noticeable amount of weight and wore an ethereal white gown. The breeze flirted with the fabric, amplifying her delicate, waif-like appearance.

Gilbert's brow creased, his expression growing somber. Clutching Kisa's hand, he reassured her in a hushed voice.

"There's nothing between Sara and me."

Kisa offered him an understanding smile and held her silence. His earnest explanation was enough to confirm his detachment from Sara. She decided not to reveal Sara's misdeeds, as without evidence, her words would have little impact.

Gilbert stepped out of the car, guiding Kisa toward Sara. Unwavering, Sara's gaze locked on their entwined hands, her eyes welling up with tears, making her look heartbreakingly vulnerable.

Seeing them return, Kelvin bolted out of the car. He cast a glance at their joined hands, his brow furrowing in disapproval, but he held his tongue. Despite his lingering resentment toward Kisa for Madalyn's death, he knew Gilbert was smitten. As long as Gilbert found happiness, nothing else truly mattered, 1

He spared a sympathetic look for the distraught Sara before telling Gilbert." Sara's been searching for you for days. She has been crying nonstop, pleading for me to bring her to you. I was worried that her relentless sorrow would take a toll on her health, especially with her injuries still healing, so I relented."

Gilbert's gaze fell upon Sara, his voice cool and detached. "What brings you to me?"

Sara bit her lip, staying mute. Her eyes, filled with unshed tears and a sense of injustice, remained fixed on Gilbert.

Unable to suppress a soft laugh, Kisa addressed Gilbert.

"You two take your time to talk; I'll go on ahead upstairs."
