Her Vengeful Rebirth
Chapter 371 Cannot Shut Him Out
“What do you mean by a few more days? Please remember, we’re not in that kind of relationship anymore, my dear brother!”
“Biological brother, huh?”
Before Calista could unleash her anger, Kallum pulled her into a tight embrace, placating her hastily. “I know, I know. We’re not in a casual relationship where we can just touch each other freely anymore.”
Upon hearing this, Calista slightly relaxed, but then, Kallum spoke again with a mischievous grin. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“But to devour you, it seems I wouldn’t need to lift a finger.”
“Kallum!”
Calista made a move to get up, but Kallum was one step ahead. He pulled the blanket from beneath them, wrapping both of them inside it, much like a roll cake, all bundled up together.
The intimate, close–knit position caused Calista’s body to tense up entirely. Despite her few attempts to struggle. Kallum suddenly held her tighter.
“Don’t move! All this brushing against me… Are you trying to seduce me?”
Calista was at a loss for words, feeling an extreme headache. The situation was unfolding quite differently from what she had anticipated.
“Kallum…
With a stern face, Calista lay on his chest, speaking in a somewhat weak voice. There are so many women. in the world. You just couldn’t have them before, but soon, you can have any woman you desire. Why bother…”
“I simply wish to devote myself to one person, giving up the forest for a tree, and as the tree, you have no Say in it.”
Kallum quietly watched her, a smile gracing his lips. At that moment, Calista looked into his eyes, feeling as though she was about to be ensnared in the vast web he had cast.
She wanted to say more, but Kallum had already gently pressed her head against his chest.
“Go to sleep.”
“But…”
“Can’t sleep? Let’s do something meaningful, then. Trust me. I know how to devour you without any risk of infection. Want to give it a try?
Calista became silent.
However, she couldn’t stop the thoughts in her mind.
There was no way that Kallum could avoid getting infected… It must be a lie.

invade her mouth.
“Mmm… Ah! Kall…”
The moment she opened her mouth, he seized the opportunity. Shocked, Calista couldn’t help but widen her eyes. After putting forth a great deal of effort to push him away, she angrily wiped her mouth.
“Are you just letting my words go in one car and out the other? Do you want to get re–infected?”
Kallum, somewhat unsatisfied, lingered his gaze on her lips, grumbling in discontent, “You were already a special case of infection. Unless I had a deep interaction with you, I wouldn’t have been infected to this
extent.”
“You!”
Calista was utterly defeated. She simply couldn’t comprehend how her status as a special infectee could possibly bring such convenience to Kallum.
Unable to make sense of it all, she made up her mind to get out of bed and decided to move into the rented house that very night.
“Wait a moment.”
“What are you planning now?” Calista watched him warily.
Kallum looked at her, somewhat helpless. “I was just trying to help you get dressed.”
“Why?” Calista refused, “I’m not handicapped.”
Kallum slightly raised an eyebrow. “You’ve always been the one taking care of me. Now, the tables have turned. I’ll take care of you!”
“No, I refuse!”
Calista picked up her coat. Thankfully, she hadn’t undressed the night before. She slipped on her shoes
and left.
Seeing Calista leave in such a hurry, Kallum voiced his dissatisfaction.
“Am I really that terrifying? You’re in such a rush…”
He shifted uncomfortably, feeling the toll of the morning’s reaction. Why had Calista woken up so early?
After Calista stepped outside, despite her stern expression, she couldn’t help but blush. The reaction from Kallum was something she couldn’t possibly ignore. All in all, she felt outsmarted once again.
After freshening up, Calista started to regain her composure. Having eaten, she encountered Wilbur on her way to the laboratory.
It was rumored that Wilbur was a child of Wanda’s relatives. Although he had recently been residing with the Fairchild family, he generally didn’t venture out, preferring to stay indoors and read.
And there he was, standing in the hallway, admiring a camellia. Dressed in a beige patterned sweater and white cotton trousers, he looked every bit the scholar.

“You’re here? Come and take a look at this flower, Isn’t it beautiful?”
His smile exuded an irresistible warmth, compelling Calista to approach him unconsciously.
She didn’t really know much about flowers. After a long gaze, she simply uttered, “It’s beautiful”
Wilbur laughed again. His laugh had a certain charm, a perfect blend of warmth and sophistication that effortlessly won people over.
“We haven’t caught up recently. How have you been feeling?”
Although on the surface, Wilbur didn’t do anything to her, he had actually asked Kallum to help her overcome her emotional issues under the guise of the saying that the one who tied the bell must untie it. In reality, his treatment had already begun.
Narrowing her eyes, Calista pondered for a moment, then spoke.
“I’ve been feeling, recently, that my heart has been filled with unnecessary emotions, making my inner world quite complex.”
This was Calista’s most immediate thought. Had she known about Kallum’s connection with the research center right after her reincarnation, she would have sought revenge without a second thought. Or she would have completely cut off all ties instead of being in her current state. Although she had decided to sever ties, whenever she faced Kallum’s pursuit, she always felt a reluctance to completely shut him out.
Wilbur raised an eyebrow. “That’s a good sign!” This also confirmed that Kallum’s decision to help her untangle her emotional knots was indeed effective. Many issues could arise when feelings were suppressed. So, Wilbur’s advice to Kallum was to uncover the truth, no matter how deep he had to dig. without fear of it being too overwhelming.
