Reborn Through Fire

Chapter 1558

Just as Sara clenched her fists, her face twisted with hatred as she glared at Kisa, Ada unexpectedly asked her a question with a seemingly innocent smile. Although her smile was endearing, there was an icy chill in her eyes. It was astounding how intimidating the gaze of a six-year-old could be.

Sara felt a sudden, inexplicable unease and forced a smile. “Oh no, I was just admiring the unique protection charm your mommy got for Natasha.”

“But, Madam, the way you looked at my mommy was super mean, like you wanted to hurt her or something.”

No sooner had Ada spoken, Gilbert shot a warning glance at Sara, his eyes narrowing with an unmistakable coldness. Sara secretly gritted her teeth, struggling to contain the jealousy and resentment raging within her.

She feigned a smile and said, “You must have misunderstood. Your mommy and I are great friends.”

Ada pouted, unconvinced. She dashed over to Kelvin, shaking his arm.” Uncle Kelvin, that lady is super loud and annoying. She could scare my baby sister. Could you please take her to the front hall?”

Kelvin seized the opportunity and smiled at Sara. “The banquet’s about to begin. Come on, I will escort you to the front hall.”

With an innocent smile masking her intentions, Sara suggested. “If the banquet’s about to start, why don’t we all head to the front hall together?”

Kelvin’s expression soured. His plan to lead the unwelcome woman away was failing miserably. He glanced helplessly at Kisa and Gracie. Kisa remained silent, while

Gracie coldly snorted and turned her face away.

Desperate, he turned to Gilbert and said, “Maybe we should all go to the front hall now. The guests should be arriving any moment.”

Gracie continued to ignore him. Gilbert, on the other hand, wrapped an arm around Kisa’s shoulder, his voice laced with amusement. “Head to the front hall?”

Kisa shook her head determinedly. “I want to savor this moment with Natasha here. You all go ahead to the front hall.”

“I will stay with-”

Before Gilbert could complete his sentence, Kelvin urgently tugged on his arm, whispering so only the two of them could hear, “You should come with me to the front hall. Sara will only follow if you go. As long as we get Sara out of the way, they won’t clash. Come on buddy, let’s go to the front hall together. You can spend time with your wife anytime.”

Gilbert shot Kelvin a suspicious glance. He realized Kelvin was using him to remove Sara from the scene.

Not giving him a chance to refuse, Kelvin turned to Kisa.

“I’ll escort Gilbert and Sara to the front hall first. You can stay back here and chat with Gracie. Gracie’s been eager to ask you for some parenting advice.” Kisa’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she nodded, clearly delighted with Kelvin’s arrangement.

“You all go ahead to the front hall then.”

She even waved them off, as if they were interrupting her precious conversation with Gracie. Gilbert shook his head with a wry smile, realizing his wife was not the least bit concerned about him being stolen away by another woman.

As Kelvin led Gilbert and Sara toward the front hall, Sara suddenly erupted into a mocking laugh.

“Kelvin, are you sure you want to consult Kisa for parenting advice? Heh, it seems none of her three children grew up by her side. What kind of parenting expertise could she possibly have?”

“What’s it to you? At least she has three children, which is more than some people who haven’t even had one and still have the nerve to throw shade.” Gracie snapped back before Kisa could respond, her voice filled with contempt and loathing.

Sara seethed with anger, her body trembling ever so slightly, but she managed to maintain a smile on her face. With her back to the two men, her venomous gaze locked onto Kisa and Gracie.

Suddenly, she moved her lips, silently mouthing words.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
