Reborn Through Fire
Chapter 1157 Swear an Oath âYou donât have to come downstairs in the future. When youâre hungry, press the call button above your bed. The call button that was previously installed hasnât been removed yet, right? Just call for a servant if you need anything.â
âMrs. Kooper Sr. changed her attitude again today. Itâs rare to see her not treating me with disdain.
Sheâs even speaking to me with a hint of politeness and concern,â Kisa thought.
She looked at the two in front of her in horror.
âWhat happened this time? Theyâre being so nice to me, and Iâm starting to wonder if Iâm pregnant again. But, thatâs impossible. I always take contraceptive pills after I do it with. Gilbert. Besides, after Shaun and Sharon had set me up and I fell to the ground, the baby wouldâve been long gone even if I was actually pregnant,â she thought again.
Kisa shook her head quietly and turned to Madalyn. âDonât you hate me? Why are you suddenly being so nice to me? Are you scheming something?â
She was purposefully provoking Madalyn to see if she would reveal something.
As expected, Madalyn immediately burst out angrily and said, âWhat could I be scheming? Do you think everyoneâs as calculative and manipulative as you? Let me tell you something, if it wasnât because of youâ¦â
âAhem! Ahemâ¦â
While Madalyn was in mid-sentence, Gilbert suddenly placed his fist in front of his lips and coughed twice.
His coughing sounds were obviously feigned.
Sure enough, Madalyn stopped talking after she heard Gilbertâs cough sounds.
Then, she snorted coldly, âJust accept the kindness I give you. You think we would be so nice to you if it wasnât because weâre worried that the media will say that weâre mistreating you?â
Kisa had a feeling that Madalyn was not telling the truth.
âAfter all, weâre in the Kooper familyâs residence. The media wouldnât even know if they actually mistreated me. But, Gilbert isnât letting Mrs. Kooper Sr. tell me the reason, so no matter how I provoke her, it will be to no avail,â she thought.
She stared daggers at Gilbert before lowering her head gloomily to eat.
âWhat is this man up to? Heâs being so secretive,â wondered Kisa.
Kisaâs appetite had been good recently. She usually felt full after six or seven madeleines, but she ate twice the amount this time and even had a bowl of chicken soup.
Meanwhile, Madalyn nodded to herself quietly. She seemed as though she was relatively satisfied with Kisaâs appetite.
After Kisa finished the madeleines and chicken soup, Gilbert handed her a bowl of decoction.
âDrink this, then go back to your room and lie down.â
Kisa caressed the bowl. She peered at the murky-looking decoction and frowned, âWhat⦠exactly does this treat?â
âIrregular menstruation,â the man answered stoically.
Kisa had a tense expression. She was starting to doubt Kelvinâs diagnosis.
She pushed the bowl of decoction away and said in a low voice, âI donât want to take it. My period has stopped for a day. I donât know if the decoction led to a paradoxical effect. Iâll go to the hospital later myself âPeriod?â
Madalyn turned to Gilbert in a panic. âWhatâs going on?â
âNothing, Grandma,â Gilbert consoled Madalyn before glaring daggers at Kisa.
âYou need to take this. Itâs good for you,â the man said as he sat down next to her. Then, he shoved the bowl into her hands. âDrink it while itâs hot.â
âI wonât. Who knows what this medicine is for?â Kisa was about to push the bowl back to him.
Suddenly, the man glared viciously at her.
Kisa was so frightened that her arms trembled. The decoction almost spilled out of the bowl.
Gilbert watched as the woman pursed her lips in silence. She did not take the decoction and looked like she was being bullied and oppressed.
He sighed softly and softened his tone. âDrink it. It really is good for you. If Iâm lying to you, I swear Iâll die a painful death!â
Kisa was shocked. She moved her lips and wanted to say something.
