Reborn Through Fire
Chapter 868 The So-Called Truth âKisa!â Jensen called out, rushing to catch her falling body.
Kisaâs vision went dark. In the darkness, she kept running and shouting Gilbertâs name, desperate to see him, wanting to get clarification from him. But there was nothing but darkness in front of her eyes. It seemed that no matter how fast sheâran, she could not find the light, and no matter how loud she shouted, Gilbert would not appear.
âKisa, Kisa, wake up, Kisa.â
âWho is it? Who is calling me with such an anxious voice?â She struggled to open her eyes, and her vision was still blurry. When her vision got better, she saw Jensenâs anxious eyes.
âAre you alright, Kisa?â It hurt Jensen to see her reddened eyes.
Kisa looked at him, dumbfounded, tears slipping from the corners of her eyes. âI couldnât believe what he said⦠he said Gilbert was the one who was behind the prison fire. How is that possible?â She spoke with a trembling and sobbing voice.
She sounded so heartbreakingly fragile that Jensen could not help but hug her tightly. He whispered to comfort her, âDonât think too much. Nothing is confirmed yet. We will ask Gilbert when we see him.â
Kisa choked back a sob and said nothing.
Adrien suddenly winked at the warden, who got the hint and whispered to Kisa, âIâm not lying to you.
The reason the fire was not investigated back then was because he did a lot to cover it up, and he could because he was powerful. And he still is. Otherwise, do you think I can cover up the incident with my ability?â
Adrien, who had been silent all this while, suddenly flicked off the ashes from his cigarette and then said in a low voice to the warden, âNo wonder you told me back then that Gilbert had nothing to do with the fire. It turned out that he was behind it. I didnât really expect that.â
Kisa stared at the ceiling with a pale face. âNo wonder. Who else but Gilbert has the power to destroy all evidence and make everyone involved disappear? But I really donât want to believe this cruel truth. I really donât want to believe it. What should I do?â
She crossed her arms over her eyes in grief, tears spilling out from under her arms uncontrollably. Her heart was aching so much that her body trembled. If someone had told her before this that it was Gilbert who was behind the fire, she might not feel so aggrieved but only hate himâhating him to the bone. But this time, when she and Gilbert were getting along so well and so happy, and she had even fallen in love with him again, this revelation was the cruelest thing to her. âWhy is God so cruel to me? Why let me learn such a cruel truth only after I fell in love with him again?â She could not believe this was the truth when she thought about how gentle and considerate Gilbert had been all this time.
Struggling to get up from Jensenâs arms, she looked grimly at the warden. âIâm going to get a clarification from Gilbert right now, and if there is even one thing that you have said is not true, I will make your life worse than death,â Kisa said with the utmost ruthlessness.
The warden trembled in fear, but when he met Adrienâs cold, stern eyes, he said to Kisa, âGo ahead and ask him. It is even better to get him to come and confront me. There are so many people here; Iâm not going to be afraid of him. Iâd rather just confront him than hide again.â
Kisa ignored him. She wiped her tears and stood up, then walked outside without Looking back.
