Reborn Through Fire novel Chapter 1478

Chapter 1478

Kisa’s heart skipped a beat, thinking it was Peter returning. But when she looked closer, it was Gilbert. He had somehow managed to get a car and was leaning against the door, waiting for her.

“Aren’t you leaving yet?” the man impatiently urged when he saw Kisa frozen in place.

Kisa quickly helped Jolina and moved toward the car, wondering why Gilbert was suddenly willing to help her.

She looked at his cold, tense profile for a moment before finally murmuring, “Thank you.”

Gilbert ignored her and started the car. As they merged onto the main road, he suddenly asked, ‘Do you know where you’re going?”

Kisa hesitated and looked toward Jolina, who was staring down with a trembling lip. Kisa let out a sigh and said, “Let’s find a hotel for now.”

“A hotel?” Gilbert chuckled. “This is Oceanville. Peter will find her in no time.”

Kisa was crestfallen, but Jolina suddenly spoke up, her voice slow but firm. “It’s okay. I’ll try to leave the city. He won’t find me.”

Kisa hugged Jolina tightly and reassured her. “Don’t worry. We’ll get you to a place where he can’t find you.”

Gilbert only smirked and took them to a small, unremarkable hotel where he used someone else’s ID to check them in. After sending Jolina to the room, Kisa went to buy some food and clothes for her.

Before Gilbert could say anything, Jolina quickly interjected, “No need, Kisa. You don’t have to stay with me. I’m fine. You should go back with Mr. Kooper while Peter is still not around. This way, he won’t suspect anything on your heads. Plus I’m sure you came to Oceanville for a reason, don’t let my situation delay it.”

Kisa wanted to say something, but Jolina pushed her and said, “Go back with Mr. Kooper. I really am okay. My parents and brother are waiting for me at home. Once I’m well enough, I will go back too.”

As Jolina spoke, her tearful eyes were filled with determination and hope.

‘Yes, she is different from Lea. She has her family’s love, but Lea had nothing except Anthony. She won’t do anything foolish like Lea did.’ Kisa thought, tightening her grip on Jolina’s hand.

“I’ll go deal with Peter first, and I’ll come see you early tomorrow. Rest well, and once you’re feeling better, I’ll take you out of Oceanville.
