Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 661

Chapter 661 I Will Be Waiting

Andrew quickly handed him the phone.

Gilbert took a look. His tightly furrowed brow slowly eased up. Even the gloom on his face slowly dissipated.

[On Christmas Eve, bring Andrew and Ada over after your great–grandma falls asleep. I’ll be waiting for you all.]

‘Was she hesitating because she was wary about Grandma and not because she disliked us disturbing her and Jensen?‘ With this thinking in mind, he no longer felt upset. He handed the phone back to Andrew with a smile on his face. “Come on, let’s go over for dinner. I will take you to ma’am’s place on Christmas Eve.”

Andrew and Ada looked at each other, both having puzzled looks on their faces.

On Christmas Eve, It’s customary for all the families to have a family gathering, yet Davian was alone in his apartment playing online games. What killed the buzz was that the other players were all couples. He quit after just one round, then put down his phone, feeling depressed. As he looked out the window at the brightly lit city, he suddenly felt a sense of loneliness.

He had worked for Gilbert for years and even forgotten about getting a girlfriend. As his parents‘ home was too far away, he could not find someone to drink with on occasions like this. His phone suddenly rang, jolting him out of his thoughts, and he quickly picked it up. Usually, whenever he saw Gilbert calling, he would behave cautiously. But today, the caller ID of Mr. Kooper on the screen looked extraordinarily kind. As he answered the phone, a giggle accompanied his softened tone of voice.

Gilbert glanced at his phone in puzzlement. “Davian?” He thought he had the wrong number.

“Yes, Mr. Kooper. It is me.”

“Talk nicely, and don’t giggle.”

“Okay.” Davian put away his smile and asked in a serious tone, “What can I do for you, Mr. Kooper?”

“Didn’t I ask you to find out the whereabouts of the

women’s prison personnel a few days ago? Any news?”

Davian pouted. He thought that Gilbert was calling to ask him for a drink. After all, Gilbert was also single.

“Hello?” Gilbert impatiently frowned when he did not get a response from Davian.

“There is no definite news yet, but there are clues. So far, there are leads to two female jailers,” Davian quickly said.
