Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 788

Chapter 788 You Are Forcing My Hand

Gilbert’s gaze darkened. “What do you mean?”

“My hatred toward her is more than what I had for her mother. She may have done nothing wrong, but her birth, in and of itself, is the greatest mistake of all.”

“Grandma…”

Gilbert suddenly felt a little helpless, “Can you tell me why? Why do you despise her so?”

Mrs. Kooper Sr. looked at Gilbert sadly and could not find the words.

How she wished to make it clear to him so that he would leave that woman.

But she dared not trigger his mental illness.

She shook her head and said in pain, “It’s not that I don’t want to tell you. I cannot tell you. You just need to know that what Grandma is doing is for your own good. If you are to listen to me, cut off that woman and have nothing to do with her anymore.”

“I cannot do that.”

“Heh…” Mrs. Kooper Sr. suddenly let out a chilling laugh, “So, between her and me, you’re choosing her?”

“I don’t have a choice,” Gilbert shifted his gaze away as

he did not want to look at his grandmother’s pained look.

She shook her head. “Since you insist on being with her, then I won’t force you…”

When Gilbert heard that, he was elated, but the next sentence that came out of Mrs. Kooper Sr.’s mouth shattered him.

“I’ve lived long enough, and I’m tired. It’s probably time for me to meet our ancestors… As for you and that woman, I’ll just treat it as I did not see it.”

“Grandma!” Gilbert could not accept her using her death to threaten him.

He looked grimly at her, “You’re trying to force my hand.

Mrs. Kooper. Sr’s smile was both loving yet icy, “Silly child, you are the one forcing my hand.”

As she said that, she turned to Davian, “Come, let’s go back.”

Gilbert was worried and immediately told Davian, “Look after Grandma.”

Davian gave a vigorous nod in reply.

Mrs. Kooper Sr. suddenly smiled, “No need to worry. If you are not with that woman, Grandma will live on. I will live on until you find new happiness.”
