Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 68

It was Andrew.

"Ma'am, you're finally back." Andrew ran in excitedly and hugged her leg. He furrowed his little brows when he saw the bottle of medication in her hand. "Are you sick?"

Kisa stroked his head. "It's fine. Just a minor one."

Andrew shook his head, extraordinarily anxious. "George always says that a minor illness can grow into a big one. I have got to tell Daddy." He ran out at once, so quickly that Kisa could not stop him.

She forced a smile, knowing that even if he told Gilbert about her condition, it would not make a difference. He would just think she was pretending, trying to earn sympathy.

Andrew had just left when Kelvin came in. He had his arms around his chest, and his tone was stern. "Why didn't you just be a little more ruthless and kill Gilbert?"

She snickered as she knew he was accusing her of stabbing Gilbert. "Had I killed him, you guys would still have cut me to pieces." She then ignored him and swallowed the pills in her hand.

Kelvin glanced at the pill bottle in her hand and said in a light-hearted manner, "Those painkillers are only aggravating your condition. If you really want to live, ask for Gilbert's forgiveness. If he forgives you, I will cure you immediately."

"I really don't need your sympathy." Kisa felt terrible now that she did not want to talk to anyone but just get a good night's sleep.
