Her Rebirth of Retribution novel Chapter 52

Calista’s phone was going to explode from the sheer number of calls she received, but she couldn’t get away because Kallum was not letting her go.

Ever since he had confirmed Calista’s feelings for him, Kallum couldn’t wipe the smile off his face. He fed Calista some medicine, and then happily said, “You’ll be fine in no time, don’t worry!”

Calista nodded her head and spun the thumb drive in her hands while thinking how she was going to tell him that she didn’t like him anymore.

What was this even! If she told him as it was and Kallum believed her, he would think she was playing with him. Otherwise, he would think she’s lying and was playing hard to get.

So the only way was probably to distance herself from him so that he would figure it out by himself that she was babbling nonsense earlier.

Kallum’s interest in her could be very useful for what she wanted to do, but in both lifetimes, she didn’t have a habit of using others’ feelings for her own benefit.

“How did you get drugged?” Kallum couldn’t help but ask when he saw that she was much better.

Calista didn’t reply. She did not intend for others to interfere with her family’s affairs.

But Kallum was a smart man. “Was it…your stepmother?”

Then he quickly asked the next question, “Did they do anything to you?”

Calista shook her head. At this time the Stafford residence must be a complete mess, but this wasn’t enough to bring them down. After all, Yelena and Quincy’s skin was much thicker than most others.

Kallum frowned. “That stepmother of yours isn’t anything good anyway. Don’t go back, just live here.”

Calista was shocked, “You want me to live here?”

“Why not?”

Kallum smiled broadly before grabbing her hand and putting the thumb ring back on her thumb.

“You’re my fiancée anyway, so why can’t we live together?”

Kallum imagined being able to see Calista every day, and it seemed like a pretty nice idea.

Calista felt that this matter had become more serious than she had hoped. She wanted to be Kallum’s godsister, not fiancée!

She licked her lips and got ready to try explaining.

Unfortunately Kallum was a man propelled by actions, so since he had ‘confirmed’ their relationship, he couldn’t control himself when he saw Calista lick her lips, and the tip of her tongue stuck out from between her lips. He immediately went forward and caught her tongue with his lips without even thinking, carefully tasting her.

Calista’s face reddened immediately.

It had never crossed her mind that one day Kallum would be so strongly attracted to her. Was it because she was the first woman he slept with?

Kallum finally let go of her and Calista wanted to explain, but he had only let go for a short while and then proceeded to kiss her again.

Calista really wanted to cry. If it wasn’t because she had used up too much energy earlier and was too weak now, there was no way Kallum would have gotten his way like this.

When she realized Kallum wanted to go further with her and it wasn’t a good time to explain herself today, the moment Kallum let go of her, she quickly seized the chance to say, “Dad has been calling me non-stop, I think he’s looking for me urgently and I have to go!”

Kallum was quite reluctant. He had now satisfied some of his inner desires, and didn’t want to let go of her at all, wishing he could just hold Calista in his arms forever.

But Calista was obviously rejecting his advances, and Kallum figured she must be feeling shy because Calista had a very reserved sort of personality, and it was only normal that she couldn’t accept the sudden advancement of their relationship. He touched her swollen lips with some reluctance and hoarsely replied, “Ok, I’ll get someone to send you back.”

Calista breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She thought it best if she disappeared for a while and let Kallum calm down first.

The moment Calista left, the smile on Kallum’s face completely disappeared.

“Go check what happened today at the Stafford residence.”

His aides quickly found out everything that happened. After all, this matter was so scandalous that the Staffords were probably the laughingstock of Horington now!

“Jonathan?”

Kallum frowned. “Are all the police officers in Horington dead? Can’t even catch one man?”

Both mother and daughter continued to echo each other’s sentiments and came closer and closer to Calista.

“I did not do it,” Calista replied coldly while gripping the thumb drive in her hand.

Yelena scoffed, “Then do you dare to confront Jonathan once he’s caught?”

They both stared hard at Calista.

It didn’t matter if Calista had taken the thumb drive or not since they were going to insist that Calista instigated Jonathan, and because Quincy had spoken very softly to Jonathan when they first got into Calista’s room, the CCTV might not have captured that conversation.

Calista laughed coldly. “And why not?”

“Enough!”

Benedict suddenly stood up. “Callie, you really didn’t do anything to your sister?”

Calista was indeed very suspicious since this happened in her room, and Quincy was harmed while she came out unscathed.

Disappointment flashed across Calista’s eyes.

“I didn’t do anything.”

She hadn’t done anything, whereas Quincy was the one who drugged herself and got involved with Jonathan. Even if the footage was broadcast, she was completely innocent!

Yelena’s phone suddenly rang, and her eyes lit up after taking the call.

“You’ve got him? Ok, we’re coming right away.”

She put down the phone and smiled coldly at Calista.

“Since there’s no point in quarreling here, let’s go to the police station and confront him! Jonathan would definitely know exactly what happened.”
