Chapter 657: Reborn Through Fire By Kazuya Higan Chapter 644

Chapter 644 You Got Beaten Up?

“I could hear you all arguing from upstairs. What’s the matter?”

Peter peered at the bruise on Jensen’s face and the blood by the corner of his lips.

“You got beaten up?” he asked in surprise.

After he spoke, he realized that he had asked something stupid.

Jensen glanced at him icily and did not respond. Then he walked past him and went upstairs.

Peter was confused.

‘Jensen’s being so hostile for no reason. I don’t think I did anything to him?’ he thought.

“Peter, come play chess with me.”

“Ah… Coming.”

“Have you got someone to send Jolina back yet?”

“Mhm, she’s still in college.”

“You like her, but she doesn’t like you, right?”

“Mhm.”

“Ho ho. What’s the matter? If you like her, go for it. While there’s the saying that nothing forcibly done will be agreeable, isn’t it worse to do nothing at all?”

Jensen stood at the corner of the staircase while gripping the railing tightly. He stared darkly at the amiable smile on Adrien’s face. Then, a sardonic smile gradually formed on his lips.

He mumbled, “I always thought he was heartless, emotionless, and cold–blooded. Turns out, he can be a nice person too.”

Mia hugged his arm sadly and tried to console him, “Maybe he was strict and heartless to you because he wanted you to get stronger.”

Jensen shook his head in a self–mocking manner.

‘That’s not why. I know the real reason behind his actions,‘ Jensen thought.

It had snowed again last night.

Kisa opened her eyes to a white snow–covered ground.

It was beautiful but also freezing.

Under the sunshine, the icicles on the dried branches appeared crystal clear. It was tempting for one to want to pick off the icicles.

Kisa moved her stiff, aching legs. Then, she pulled her chair and sat up.

She fell asleep in the car last night. Now that she had woken up, it was only seven o’clock in the morning.

She turned to her side and saw Lea still asleep without anything covering her.

She pursed her lips and shifted her blanket onto Lea’s body. Then, she quietly got out of the car.

The temperatures in and outside of the car were starkly different.

The moment Kisa left the car, she shivered from the cold.

After moving around and rubbing her hands for a while, she finally got a little used to the temperature.

The door of the Kooper residence was closed.

She slowly walked over. Then, she sat on the rattan chair in front of the door.

Even though there was an umbrella, some snow had fallen onto the rattan chair and made it damp.

Kisa sat down and felt even colder. Out of reflex, she wrapped her jacket around herself tighter.

She quietly waited until eight o’clock. However, the door of the Kooper residence remained closed.

She reached into her pocket and took out her phone.

After searching for a contact, she hesitated for a moment before calling Kelvin.

The phone rang for a while, but no one picked up.

She lowered her gaze before shutting off her phone and throwing it aside. Then, she leaned into the chair and continued waiting.

The sun was shining brightly today. However, Kisa still did not feel warm and shivered from the cold.

Just as she was contemplating if she should wait in the car, the door of the Kooper residence promptly opened.

George was standing at the door.

Kisa immediately stood up and turned to George, “Gilbert…”

“Mr. Hoover is still doing a toxin test. Please go home, Ms. Becker. There’s no point in waiting any longer. After all, Mrs. Kooper won’t let you see the young master.”

Kisa lowered her gaze, “I understand. I just wanted to know if Gilbert is safe and sound.”

“Go home. I will get Davian to inform you if the young master regains consciousness safely.

“…alright,” Kisa nodded before slowly trudging toward the car.

Her entire body felt awful; even her ankle was aching badly. She truly was not in shape to continue waiting there.

When Kisa got into the car, Lea coincidentally woke up.

Lea rubbed her eyes and said groggily, ‘How’s Mr. Kooper?”

Kisa shook her head.

“Let’s go back first.”

Lea was stunned, “You’re not going to wait for Mr. Kooper?”

“Nope.”

‘It’s not like I can see him,‘ Kisa thought.

Lea glanced at Kisa’s expression and did not dare to say another word. She moved her legs around before sitting upright. Then, she started the car.

Meanwhile, Gilbert was in his room and coughed out more blood.
