Reborn Through Fire
Chapter 639 I Trust You With My Life Davian was stunned and asked with disbelief, âYou really have the fruit?â
Kisa quickly nodded and took out the red fruit from her pocket. Once Davian saw the fruit, he hurriedly pulled Kisa up to find Kelvin. But Madalyn blocked her again. âWhat game are you playing now? Gilbert is already like this, yet you wonât let him go? How did you manage to get the fruit when the caves collapsed? Youâre wrong if you think I will trust you by picking some random fruit outside. Get out of my house!â
Madalynâs hatred toward Kisa only grew, and she refused to let her go up any further. Davian urged, âMrs. Kooper Sr., please be reasonable. With Mr. Kooper in this state, she had no reason to bring fake fruits to us, right? No matter what she is here for, let Kelvin try first. Itâs better than letting Mr. Kooper die.â
Regardless of what Davian had said, Madalyn still dug her heels in. âIf they really wanted to save Gilbert, they could have sent us the fruit ages ago. Why wait until now? I would never let them near Gilbert. They will only harm my grandson and take his life away.â
Kisa got anxious as she watched Madalynâs stubbornness. She handed the fruit to Davian, Quick, go find Kelvin.â
â
Davian agreed and ran up the stairs, ignoring Madalyn. Kisa fretted, wringing her hands.â From how Madalyn and Davian reacted, Gilbertâs situation seemed bad. Letâs hope that I sent the fruit just in time.â
Madalyn did not allow them to go upstairs or get near Gilbert. In the end, Jensen and Kisa waited in the courtyard outside. Jensen leaned on a tree, quietly smoking. He was in a bad mood. Kisa had not seen such a dark expression on him before. Biting her lips, she walked toward him. âMadalyn must have misunderstood something. You should explain to her once she has calmed down.â
âThereâs nothing to explain,â Jensen responded dryly, his tone flat. Kisa knotted her brows in disagreement, âWhy donât you explain? Do you feel good when everyone misunderstands you?â
âHa.â Jensen suddenly laughed in selfâdeprecation. He looked at her, his gaze not as gentle as usual and showing a hint of irony. âHow would you know⦠that itâs a misunderstanding?â
âI believed youâre not that kind of person. You wonât leave Gilbert in the lurch. I trust you with my life.â
Jensen felt his heart overflowing with pain rather than joy when he looked into Kisaâs trusting eyes. He snorted with a hint of cruelty, âYou trust people too easily. Let me tell you, that wasnât a misunderstanding.â
The cold wind blew, sending shivers down Kisaâs spine. Kisaâs eyes went wide as she stared at the man in front of her. The once gentleman changed in a split second. He was smoking. The smoke lingering between them made Kisa unable to gauge him. âI have no idea why you are referring to yourself that way.
Kisa felt sad looking at him like this, âI believe you. Youâre not the coldâhearted person Davian and Madalyn said you were. You wonât see Gilbert die without doing anything.â âHahâ¦â Jensen lowered his eyes and grinned coldly. âKisa, why would you trust me?â
Kisa nibbled on her bottom lip, unable to provide a reason. She did not know if it were because of the admiration in her youth or her dependence on him now. In her eyes, Jensen was the best, even better than Gilbert. So she could not believe Davian and Madalyn when they talked about him like this.
Jensen rose to his feet as he finished his cigarette.
