Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert)
Chapter 957

Chapter 957 Getting Into Character

Gilbert could feel that Kisa was trying to please, get close, and cater to him. He would feel happy if it weren't for the incident between Jensen and the warden. On the one hand, he missed her initiative and pleasantness. Yet, he was afraid that this was all a trap. He leaned back on the couch and pinched his brow wearily. 'I don't even dare to think about this matter. What would I do if this was a trap?" "Gilbert, do you need me to do anything else?" The woman tidied up his desk and stacked the files nicely at the side. Gilbert opened his eyes to look at her. After a while, he said in a dry tone, "Come on. Let's go."

Kisa was stunned, "Aren't you doing overtime?"

"I'm not anymore," said Gilbert. With the woman right before his eyes, how could Gilbert even be in the mood to work? Gilbert smiled bitterly and stood up, saying, "I'll take you for a meal before sending you back."

"Oh, okay," Kisa walked over to him, all smiles, and naturally hugged his arms. Gilbert stared down at his hugged arm with worry, yet the corner of his lips unconsciously upturned.

That night, Gilbert stayed at Kisa's place. Rarely did the man not have pleasure with her, yet he even avoided her and went to sleep in the next room today. Kisa had no idea what the man was thinking. 'I can't figure out whether Gilbert is sick of me. He didn't chase me away when I went to him, but he has been so cold to me these two days,' Kisa tossed and turned in her bed, unable to sleep.

Kisa was frustrated, afraid she could not make Gilbert fall for her. 'If I couldn't even do this, how could I take revenge on him? I want to break his heart and dump him mercilessly, so he would have a taste of being cheated. If he is not infatuated and did not take the bait, all I did so far would be för naught.'

Kisa lost sleep until late at night and woke up late the next morning. Luckily, the director had an emergency today and took a day off. The first thing Kisa did after waking up was to check if Gilbert was still in the room next door. She found the room empty, and the blankets were neatly folded when she opened the door.

Gilbert left quietly, not sending her a single text message or leaving her a note. It looked like he was still angry at her. Yet Kisa had no clue if it was about the day when she said she was unwilling to bear a child for him or if it was that she stained his documents last night.

Kisa stopped her train of thought and went to wash up. She entered the kitchen,

shocked. There were a few sets of breakfast warmed on the stove. There was the sandwich that she loved and her favorite tuna sandwich. Kisa stared at the breakfast for a while and coldly twitched her lips, forming a half-smile.

'In the past, Gilbert used his attentiveness to open up my heart silently. I got lost in his thoughtfulness and, forgot about the revenge, ended up harming Jensen. Is he trying to do the same thing to me again?' Kisa thought.

Kisa took out the breakfast and put it on the dining table. She took a bite of the tuna sandwich, and her eyes got wet. In the past, she would feel so sweet when she ate the tuna sandwiches bought by Gilbert. But now, even as the taste is similar, she could only feel insulted and cold-heartedness. Kisa had just eaten a bite of the tuna sandwich when her phone rang. She looked at her phone and furrowed her brows.
