Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) -
Chapter 511
Chapter 511 A Bigwig Wants You to Die
Suddenly, Adrien fell silent and smoked quietly.
Kisa felt Adrien's facial expression turn grim all of a sudden. She was uptight and stared at him without blinking.
Adrien finally spoke again after a long time, "The official explanation back then was that night was too cold. They turned on the heating equipment during the New Year's Eve party, but the equipment malfunctioned suddenly and caused the fire. In other words, the fire that year was an accident."
"So, you didn't investigate it?" Kisa felt a little disappointed.
She definitely would not believe the fire was an accident because she clearly remembered someones locked her in the room on purpose and were talking outside the door. They implied that Gilbert was behind the fire.
Adrien shook his head and said, "There was nothing to investigate as the prison burned into ruins at that moment. But I heard the fire started from your side, and there was no heating equipment at your side. So there were some loopholes in the official explanation.
"I looked for the warden later. He spoke cryptically, implying that there was a bigwig who wanted you to die. However, he revealed no further information."
Kisa lowered her eyes. 'A bigwig who wanted me dead? Was Gilbert the bigwig? Except for Gilbert, Sharon was the one who wanted me to die. But Sharon wasn't as powerful as Gilbert.'
Suddenly, Kisa felt a little confused. The truth remained unclear even though Adrien had told her that much. The person behind the incident was still unknown.
Kisa looked at Adrien. "Where is that warden now? I want to meet him."
'The warden must have known who was behind that fire since he said that.'
Adrien shook his head and said, "The warden resigned after the fire. No one knows where he is. But I'll help you replace him if you want to meet him."
"Okay, thank you."
Suddenly, Adrien sighed, "I knew the fire was weird initially. I worried someone would hurt you. So, I didn't tell anyone after I rescued you secretly. I even changed your name just to make you stay alive. You were seriously injured at that time. I thought you wouldn't survive. Luckily you're fine, but that child was a pity."
Kisa's heart ached again when she heard about the child.
Adrien glanced at her and said, "The child was almost full-term. I tried to save him, but it didn't work after trying several times."
"I know you did your best. No matter what, I really appreciate you."
"Don't say that. Your mom and I were close friends back then. You're her daughter. I should take care of you as an elder."
Kisa took out the photo of the baby again. She rubbed the baby in the photo and felt very sad deep in her heart.
'I really want to hug my baby, but I would never have such an opportunity in my whole life."
Adrien looked at her sad face and said suddenly, "Gilbert... is his dad, right?"
Kisa remained silent.
Adrien sighed, "I've heard about what happened between you and Gilbert back then. But I still can't understand how he can bear it. This is his child after all, even if there was a blood feud between both of you. This child might be born safely if he didn't send you to prison."
Kisa's tears could not help but fall. They dripped on the photo, on the child's face, like flowers of sadness.
She looked at Adrien and said in a choked voice...
