Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 122

Chapter 122 He Always Thinks She’s Lying

Although it was spring in the Sandy Bay, the cold wind at night still felt chilly to the bone..

Kisa sat quietly by the river, letting the icy rain fall onto her. Her hair was wet, and her pale and thin face was filled with raindrops and tears. The red and swollen handprint on her face looked terrifying under the rain.

She clenched her hands tightly, her eyes full of indifference. ‘I don’t care if the Case family wants to frame me. All I want is my mother’s antique.‘

Suddenly, she heard the sound of footsteps behind her, and a thick coat was draped over her shoulders. Her heart trembled slightly. She turned around to see who it was, but a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

“That’s right. Gilbert wholeheartedly thought that I was lying and that I am a vicious monster. He hates me and wants me dead. How could it ever be him?‘

Howard was startled when he saw the handprint on Kisa’s face. “Kisa, y–your face… Who hit you?”

“It’s nothing,” Kisa said as she stared blankly at the river.

“I’m sorry, Kisa. I’m sorry for not doing anything when the news incident caused you to be ridiculed and humiliated by everyone. I would have taken it all down if given another chance. I never wanted to see you get hurt,” Howard pursed his lips and suddenly said with guilt.

Kisa was sad when she heard his words. People all over the world were scolding and teasing her Even her family and lover abandoned her like she was trash, but the man behind her who she had only known for a short time cared about her deeply.

Kisa clutched onto Howard’s chest tightly and cried like a helpless little child. She did not understand why her own grandfather would frame her. She also did not understand why her biological father hated her so much. Even more so, she did not understand why the man she loved with all her heart hated her from the very start of their relationship.
