Reborn Through Fire

Chapter 1486

Kisa jerked awake, feeling a little disoriented. But before she could even gather her thoughts, the door-knocking sounded twice more, jolting her out of her daze. She dashed to the door and found Peter there, holding up a pale and injured Gilbert. Without wasting a single second, she quickly helped Gilbert inside.

Once she shut the door, she turned to Peter and demanded, “Where did you find him?”

“In the basement of the Tanner residence,” he responded.

Kisa’s eyes narrowed as she realized that there was indeed something off about the basement in the Tanner residence. She led Gilbert to the couch and looked at him with genuine concern, his face as white as a sheet.

“Are you okay?” she asked with a trembling voice, her eyes already welling up with tears.

Gilbert squinted at her with half-opened eyes and snickered, “I’m not six feet under yet, so there’s no need to fake your sadness like that.”

Kisa took a deep breath and muttered, “I’m not acting!”

Gilbert smirked but said nothing.
