Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 889

Chapter 889 Wrong Person

She was going to make another trip to Hillsby. If the two jailers also admitted that Gilbert had threatened them, then she would never make excuses for him again. She considered this trip as a second chance for herself and Gilbert.

She still felt that the warden and the two guards would not conspire to frame Gilbert. If all of them said that Gilbert was behind the fire and their words matched, she would stop doubting and accept the truth. But if the two jailers said that Gilbert had never threatened them, then she would have to rethink whatever the warden said.

As the thought crossed her mind, there was a sudden sound of the door opening in the living room. She subconsciously looked at the time and saw that it was just after 1 am. Jolina told her earlier that she would only be back at 4 am. So she wondered if Jolina got off work early today. She didn’t move but quietly listened. But the more she listened, the more she felt something was wrong. Although she had not spent much time with Jolina, she knew Jolina was a relatively quiet girl who even walked quietly. But the footsteps in the living room were loud, like that of a man.

While she was thinking, the door suddenly opened. Before she could react to it, a tall figure pounced on her, catching her off guard. She smelled an unfamiliar scent of a man, and it tinged with the smell of alcohol. Kisa panicked.

The living room was faintly lit, and the light that shone into the bedroom was even fainter. As the man’s back was against the light, Kisa could not make out his face. She struggled, but to no avail, as the man was grabbing both her wrists and holding them above her head. Before she could scream, the man yelled at her in exasperation.

“Why didn’t you answer your phone when I called? Why are you avoiding me, huh?”

Kisa was wide–eyed as she found this voice somehow familiar, like Peter’s. ‘Indeed, indeed. This is Peter’s voice. Aren’t Peter and Jolina having some sort of relationship?‘
