Reborn Through Fire
Chapter 1155 That Woman Is So Stupid âMy poor great-grandchild is dead, yet you want me to do something for their sake? Are you trying to make me sad on purpose?!â
Madalyn said while sadly wiping her tears.
Gilbert chuckled, âWho said itâs dead?â
Madalyn froze and looked at him in shock. âWhat do you mean? The babyâ¦â
âThe baby is still in her stomach. The miscarriage incident a few days ago was to tackle Sharon. Kisa didnât actually have a miscarriage.â
Gilbert did not tell Madalyn about Kisaâs fake pregnancy to prevent her from hating Kisa even more.
âTelling grandma that the babyâs still there is enough. That way, grandma will stop putting Kisa in a tight spot. Besides, sheâll be happy,â he thought.
As expected, a smile instantly appeared on Madalynâs face. She grabbed Gilbertâs hand. excitedly and said, âReally? Is the baby really still alive?â
Gilbert nodded with a smile. âBut, you need to keep this a secret and not tell anyone, including Kisa.â
âWhy? Doesnât she know that sheâs pregnant?â Madalyn asked perplexedly.
Gilbert pursed his lips. âShe thinks she lost the baby after the miscarriage. Anyway, just donât tell her.â
Madalyn was dubious.
âHow could she not know if the babyâs gone or not after the miscarriage?â
âShe really doesnât know. And, that is why, do me a favor, Grandma. Donât tell her about the baby yet.â
âIf it wasnât because grandma was sad and constantly targeting Kisa, I wouldâve hidden this from her too,â he thought.
Madalyn nodded her head. âAlright. As long as my great-grandchild is still alive.â
Then, she frowned disdainfully, âThat woman is so stupid. She doesnât even know that her child is still alive.â
Gilbert laughed quietly.
âItâs not that Kisa is stupid. Everything is just too coincidental. After all, she took.
contraceptive pills and even fell down. If Christopher hadnât drawn her blood and sent it for a test, no one wouldâve figured that Kisa was actually pregnant,â he thought.
It was nighttime. Kisa leaned against the headboard as she read a book.
It only took a while before she started feeling sleepy.
Kisa was confused.
âWhy have I been getting sleepy a lot recently?â she wondered.
She closed the book. Just as she was about to switch off the lights and go to sleep, Gilbert opened the door and came in.
He was wearing a sleeping robe and looked like he had come in to sleep.
Kisa could not help but feel shocked.
âI thought he wouldnât sleep in the same room as me again. After all, heâs still mad at me,â she thought.
Kisa remained silent and got under the sheets. Then, she quietly moved to the side.
Gilbert, too, did not speak.
There was a suffocating feeling in the quiet room.
A moment later, Kisa felt a slight sinking feeling beside her.
The man had laid down.
Kisa had her back against him.
âIf only he didnât come in. I wouldnât have to feel so restricted if I was alone,â she thought.
âIs there anything else? Otherwise, Iâll switch off the lights!â the man suddenly asked.
He spoke in a cool, flat tone. Kisa could not distinguish his mood.
She stuck her head out of the sheets and said, âSwitch it off.â
Right after a soft âclick,â the room fell into darkness.
Kisa opened her eyes and took a moment to adjust to the darkness. However, she suddenly did not feel sleepy anymore.
Kisa could not help but scoot further when she felt the warmth of the body lying beside her.
Suddenly, the man pressed himself up against her. His warm chest was now directly touching her back.
Kisa immediately stiffened. âGilbertâ¦â
âWhat do you want to eat tomorrow?â
Gilbert was pressed up against her. However, he did not move and merely murmured at her.
Kisa could not understand why he asked this question out of the blue. She responded out of reflex, âNothing in particular.â
âThen, Iâll get the servants to make chicken soup tomorrow. Since you like tuna sandwiches, Iâll ask them to make more.â
Kisa frowned in confusion.
âIsnât he still mad at me? Why is he being so nice to me?â she wondered.
While she was deep in thought, the man suddenly wrapped his hand around her waist.
