Reborn Through Fire

Chapter 291 He's Just Like That as Well

Madalyn angrily chucked the newspaper onto Gilbert, "Look at the mess you've caused."

Gilbert picked up the newspaper. At a glance, he saw a picture of Kisa and him kissing. A sneaky smile crept up the corner of his lips. Davian saw Gilbert in a great mood and immediately asked, "Mr. Kooper, will we visit the film set again?"

"You're not allowed to go!" Madalyn furiously screamed out before Gilbert could answer.

Gilbert skimmed through the contents of the newspaper and passed it to Davian, "Then we won't. There is a lot of work to be done at the company. As for the rumors, get the PR department to handle it."

Upon hearing this, the anger faded from Madalyn's face.

However, Davian could not understand Gilbert's course of action.

'Gilbert's the one who made sure the scene between Kisa and him was publicized, after all. He should be the one who's worried about this scandal the most.'

He could not figure out why Mr. Kooper would act so maniacally and rush to the set of 'The Legend of Luna' and do a scene with Kisa. Did he do it out of amusement? However, he had to admit Gilbert was in a much better mood after going to the set yesterday. Remembering Gilbert's gloom the previous few days brought chills down his spine. Davian wished Gilbert would visit the production set more often.

During the morning, all media outlets spread rumors, saying that Gilbert and Kisa had rekindled their love for each other. They even spoke of the pair's plans for remarriage and mending their relationship. In the afternoon, the media suddenly changed their tune.

They instead said that Gilbert had a scene with Kisa not because they were rekindling their relationship, but that Gilbert did it for old times' sake and took pity on her being stuck in a rut, so he had

helped her pass that scene.

Thus, Gilbert's personality as a nice guy was established again. All manner of praises were given to him, such as being gracious, kind, sentimental, and many others. Due to this incident, some people even praised his acting skills and claimed he was an acting genius.

Upon reading the news articles, Kisa gave a scornful laugh. She knew that Gilbert did not help her out of the kindness of his heart. Helping her out of the blue yesterday was only a move to earn the media's praise and solidify GK Pictures's reputation.

In the past, Gilbert would complain that whatever she did would be filled with schemes. Now it seemed the same applied to him too.

Lea furiously spoke while pointing at the articles on her phone, "Kisa, what the media is reporting is so infuriating. What do they mean by stuck in a rut? What do they mean by saying you looked so pitiful and stuck? As if you had no talent in acting. The way they write about this incident is so demeaning to you. Look at this; all the comments at the bottom are negative comments about you." This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

She continued grumbling as she swiped her phone in anger.

Kisa smiled coldly and spoke, "These words were not from the media, but from the PR department of GK Pictures."

"But M. Kooper treated you so nicely yesterday. Why did he do this today...?"

"Treated me nicely?" Kisa laughed mockingly while stroking Lea's head, "Lea, don't judge a book by its cover, understand?"

Lea nodded her head without fully understanding.

Just then, the director ordered her to go do her third scene. Kisa spoke to Lea, "The sun will be scorching today. You don't have to wait for me here. Find some cool shade to rest under."

"Mhm. Go get 'em, Kisa," Lea said, cheering Kisa on.

Kisa took a long and deep thought. After familiarizing herself with the script, she was starting to enter the zone upon starting her second scene. Roy also performed great today. Both of them were getting better at performing their lines together. A few scenes were finished smoothly before 3 o'clock in the afternoon. The director was so happy that he ended everyone's shift early.

However, while Kisa was preparing to go home, she could not find Lea anywhere despite walking everywhere. She would not even pick up Kisa's calls. Upon reaching some shady trees by the river, she suddenly saw Celandina. Celandina acted suspiciously while keeping her head down as if she was guilty of something. She brushed her shoulders as she walked toward the production set.
