“Loves me?” Calista couldn’t help but chuckle. Seeing the discomfort on Benedict’s face, she patted his shoulder and said. “Don’t force yourself if you can’t say it, Dad. I have to tell you that the Langley family already considers me an enemy. It’s time for you to face reality.” 

The color drained from Benedict’s face. He brushed off Calista’s hand and opened his mouth before closing it again. He couldn’t utter a word in rebuttal. 

“All right, I’m off to class now.” Calista glanced at the time and left with a smile. 

As Benedict watched Calista’s retreating figure, he let out a long sigh. He wasn’t clueless. He just yearned. for the past harmony. 

There and then, he thought perhaps it was a good decision for Quincy to go abroad. 

The roar of a plane taking off filled the air as Quincy departed, carrying with her Yelena’s admonitions and her resentment toward Calista. 

In school, Calista seemed to sense something, her gaze drifting toward the sky. A cold smirk suddenly appeared on her face. When she reincarnated, her only thought had been to end things swiftly, to eliminate the person she despised the most. At that moment, however, she had suddenly become. composed.

“Hurry! Hurry! Calista has come out!” 

Calista was engaged in conversation with someone nearby, her demeanor even colder and more resolute than a year ago. However, the hostile aura that used to surround her had significantly diminished. Mainly because, over the past year, all the annoying individuals had vanished from her life, allowing her to fully immerse herself in her research.

show it, her eyes reflected a significant amount of joy. Quintus, who had been with her for a long time, could naturally guess a bit of what she was thinking. 

Seeing her in a good mood. Quintus said, “Ms. Calista. Mr. Kallum is waiting for you at Havenrock Villa. Today is the big day of the medicine’s launch, and he wishes to celebrate this milestone with you.” 

Calista was somewhat puzzled. “Why go to Havenrock Villa? Can’t we celebrate at Fairchild Manor?” 

Quintus certainly couldn’t admit that Fairchild Manor was teeming with people and that Kallum had long desired to have some private time with Calista alone. 

Hence, he answered earnestly. “Mr. Kallum mentioned that the new medicine has been launched, but the specific response is still uncertain, so it’s not appropriate to make a big deal out of something. He wants to celebrate with you privately for now.” 

When Calista heard his organized explanation, she didn’t probe any further. However, she did murmur to herself. “With his health in such a terrible state, why is he still running around? Ugh…” 

Although the research had been progressing steadily and Calista had been trying to prolong Kallum’s life, the inevitable decline of Kallum’s health was unavoidable. K Virus was too aggressive, and Kallum, not being of her constitution, was essentially fighting for his life each day. The fact that he could still move around was nothing short of a miracle. 

The small car followed the only road leading to Havenrock Villa. Surrounded by the azure sea, Havenrock Island appeared like an isolated haven, bathed in sunlight and exuding a sense of tranquil elegance.. 

Upon arrival, Quintus didn’t stick around to be the third wheel. The entire mansion was devoid of people that day. Kallum had also put off all his official duties for the day, all in pursuit of an undisturbed vacation with Calista. 

When Calista saw Quintus drive away, she didn’t pay him any mind. Holding up her skirt, she headed. toward the mansion. The delicious scent of food wafted out, making her realize she was somewhat hungry. However, as she reached the entrance, she suddenly paused in surprise. Kallum isn’t alone here, right? 

She hesitated slightly. If Kallum is alone here, could I leave? 

The main issue was the strange sensation she had gotten from Kallum over the past year. It was so peculiar. She would avoid him whenever possible during the day, but at night, there was no escaping him, no matter what she did. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

With a sense of hesitation, Calista pushed open the grand doors. The entire house was adorned in a dreamy mix of pink and baby blue. Colorful balloons floated around the grand hall, and a long table was laden with various delicacies. The aroma of wine and grilled meat filled the air. Beyond the windows was a beach and the vast sea. Despite the beautiful atmosphere, she felt a sense of retreat, for indeed, no one else was around. 

“Are you looking for me?” 

Suddenly, a magnetic male voice echoed in her ears. Calista snapped back to reality and turned to look, only to see Kallum, dressed in a well–tailored deep blue leisure suit, smiling warmly at her.
