Reborn Through Fire By Kazuya Higan Chapter 232

Chapter 232 Don’t Let Them See You in This State Kisa pursed her lips, “Whatever happened just now, don’t take it to heart. I’m fine, really.”

Jensen smiled and did not respond.

“The atmosphere today is a little suffocating,‘ thought Kisa.

When she saw the glass shards on the floor, she squatted down to clean them up.

However, Jensen swiftly grabbed her arm, “I’ll do it. You should go home.”

“But…”

“Come on now. Go home and rest.”

Jensen caressed her swollen eyes and continued, “When you get home, you can do some warm compr essions to soothe your eyes. Aren’t you going to the Case family’s house tomorrow? Don’t let them see you in this state.”

“Alright…

Before leaving, Kisa glanced at the mess on the floor.

Jensen suddenly said from behind her, “Don’t be scared, Kisa. In the future, I won’t ever act this way in

front of you again.”

‘What about when I’m not around?‘ wondered Kisa.

It was evident that Jensen had his secrets. However, Kisa did not dare to find out.

“Dad, mom’s sick. Could you..

“Stop right there. What did you just call me?”

“Dad…”

“You vile thing! Get out of this place!”

“Mom, don’t go! Mom… Wah… Please don’t go…‘

“You’re Jensen Kooper?”

“And you are?”

“I’m your grandmother. This is the Kooper family home. From now on, you’ll be staying here.

“How about my father?”

“Your father… He’s made a mistake and has been sent away. That’s why you must remember this: in this house, what’s yours will always be you rs. With that being said, you also mustn’t think of taking what isn’t yours.”

“My name’s Gilbert Kooper. Mrs. Kooper Sr. said that you’re my older brother and that you’ll protect me.”

“That’s right, I’ll protect you.”

“Then, can I sleep with you tonight?”

“Sure, come on up.”

“I’ve booked you a flight ticket for 10 am tomorrow.”

“I don’t want to leave, Mrs. Kooper Sr.”

“But you must. Don’t worry. Somebody will take care of you when you get there.”

“Mister, but Mrs. Kooper Sr. said there would be people taking care of me here?”

“Hah, you must be joking. You’ve been exiled here; why would anyone care if you’re dead or alive? The old woman was kind enough to get me to escort you here safely. Anyway, you seem pretty pitiful, so he re’s 200 dollars. See what you can do with it.”

“Tsk! There’s no way anyone would pity you with that handsome face of yours. Let’s get him!”

“Where did this beggar come from? Get out! Don’t dirty my place.”

“Mr. McCray, he’s quite the looker. Let’s take him with us and have some fun.”

“Tell me, what can you do?”

“I… can do anything!”

“Alright. You said this yourself… Men, take him away!”

Jensen stroked the glass shards on the floor and smiled sardonically.

‘I’m a mess, yet I’m still trying hard to stay alive. What am I doing this for? Perhaps it’s out of spite!‘ he th The following day, Kisa dressed up and did her own makeup. She even went with a makeup look that wa Kisa often dressed plainly, so her current makeup and attire seemed exceptionally bold.

Before driving to the Case family’s house, Kisa went to the mall and bought Carolyn, Christopher, and S ‘Since we’re going to play pretend, I’ll have to go all the way,‘ thought Kisa.

Soon after Kisa parked the car, Carolyn came up to her enthusiastically.

“Oh, Kisa! You’re here. I was wondering who this beauty was.”

She glanced into the car before asking, “Where’s Jensen? He didn’t come with you?”

“He’s busy and couldn’t make time, so I had to come over myself.”

Carolyn’s eyes glinted with glee when she heard Kisa’s words.
