Reborn Through Fire novel Chapter 525

It reminded him of that day when he saw her angry and resistant expression. The wound in his chest from her stab hurt again. He suddenly smiled in a self-deprecating way. 'I have to use force every time I want to get intimate with her. How ridiculous! How ironic!' He got up abruptly and looked out the window with his arms akimbo, feeling bitter.

Kisa propped herself up and tilted her head to look at him. When he did not turn around even after a long while, she could not resist tugging at his clothes. "Gilbert..."

"Get lost!" He growled in disgust and swatted away her hand in repulsion.

Kisa flinched back at his yell. She bit her lip and hugged her knees as she looked at him with a touch of aggrievement mixed with stubbornness on her face.

Gilbert took a deep breath and turned to look at her. "Don't make such a face like I have bullied you. If you don't like me, why are you sticking to me? Why bother wooing and tempting me? Do you think this kind of relationship game is fun? I'm telling you, I won't entertain you anymore. If you want to play, then go find another man. I will never have the slightest bit of affection for you again." He gave her a disdainful look, turned around, and walked outside, then slammed the door shut behind him.

Kisa closed her eyes and kneaded her temples. She was really sick all over, inside and out, from the hangover. She leaned on the headboard for a long while, and only when her head was clearer did she get out of bed. But as soon as her foot hit the floor, a sharp pain came from one side of her ankle, causing her to gasp. She looked at her foot and frowned, as she found it had swollen. 'Strange! How did I injure my foot?' She vaguely remembered that she fell off a boulder but could not remember why she had climbed onto it.

She endured the pain in her ankle and limped toward the bathroom. When she reached the bathroom doorway, she was shocked. It panicked her to see the mess inside. 'Who did all this? Could it be... could it be me? Did I do this while I was drunk?' The more she thought about it, the more panicked she was. She wiped the cold sweat off her forehead with the back of her hand, only to find the stain of foundation and black of eyebrow pencil on the back of her hand.
