Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 53

"G-Gilbert."

Kisa scaled the wall with difficulty, barely supported by her feet, with only eight inches of protruding edge of the wall.

"Are you crazy?" Gilbert yelled, reaching out to grab her.

Kisa was scared to death, breaking out in a cold sweat and shivering from the icy wind.

Gilbert felt a bit relieved when he finally got hold of her cold hand. Good thing she was so light. He then lifted her in like a tattered doll.

Kisa breathed a sigh of relief as soon as her feet landed, and her body fell limply to the floor.

Seeing her pale face, Gilbert reached out and closed the window. "At least you are smart enough to know where to hide. But this is the 30th floor; if you make the slightest mistake, you will fall to your death." Gilbert said casually, but deep down inside, he was in trepidation. He always claimed that he wanted this woman to die, but at the critical moment, he still wanted this woman to live. He could not explain these contradictory thoughts.

As expected, Gilbert snickered. "Do you think I would go and apologize to a man like that?"

"So you are just going to watch me get killed by him?" She suddenly realized how redundant and ridiculous to say that. After all, Gilbert had wanted her dead in the first place. Thinking about it, she looked down sadly. "If it had been Sara, he would have fought to the death to protect her. After all, I'm a nobody compared to Sara in his heart.'

Gilbert stared into her downcast eyes with a bit of guilt inside him. He knew Kisa had nothing to do with what happened between Anthony and him. But that slight guilt that had risen inside him evaporated when Kisa uttered her next sentence.
