Her Vengeful Rebirth ( Calista ) Novel

Chapter 385 Why Did You Let Go. 

Calista’s hand was dislocated. In her attempt to grab Kallum’s hand, her phone had already slipped from her grasp. 

Even though the people on the helicopter had done their best to maintain balance, at this point, any minor deviation could place the two individuals at the end of the tether in a life–or–death situation. There were several instances where Calista and Kallum narrowly missed colliding with the cliff face. 

“Go higher, go higher!” Quintus shouted amidst the powerful gusts. 

The one piloting the helicopter didn’t have a moment to utter a single word. He wanted to ascend, but the current situation was far from easy. Those below could see the chaotic beams from the helicopter’s front. searchlight in the pitch–black night, and they broke out in a cold sweat. 

Amidst the relentless, powerful winds that seemed to never cease, Calista felt as though her insides were being shaken up. She lifted her head to look at Kallum and said abruptly, “Actually, if you just let me go, the helicopter will find its balance again.” 

Calista felt numbness creeping into her fingers, solely kept from falling by Kallum’s firm grip on her hand. 

Upon hearing her words, Kallum no longer had the mood to berate her for causing trouble. In order to grab her, he had to concentrate fully. At that moment, their fates were out of their hands.. 

Unexpectedly, Calista loosened her grip. 

This startled Kallum so much that it made his hair stand on end. 

“What are you doing?” 

Kallum’s night vision was exceptional, and he actually saw Calista smiling. “Forget it, I don’t want to drag you down with me.” 

“D“mn it! Don’t you dare let go! If you do, I’ll throw your father, your teacher, and everyone you care about down Narrow Sky Gorge!” 

“Then you should throw yourself down first.” 

With a hint of helplessness, Calista closed her eyes. Although she was reluctant to admit it, whether it was love or hatred, whether they were together or not, Kallum’s presence was too overwhelming in two lifetimes, forcing her to care. 

“What?” The wind was too loud, and Kallum couldn’t hear clearly. But that wasn’t the point. The real issue was, his palms started to sweat, and his heartbeat suddenly quickened. 

“Hold on tight to me!” 

Calista really wanted to hold onto him tightly, and she wasn’t deliberately showing indifference toward her life. But after running for so long today and having experienced several life–threatening situations, she was simply out of energy. 

Seeing that Calista remained still, Kallum grew anxious. Even though the helicopter was steadily ascending, their intertwined hands had loosened by a few centimeters.

Chapter 385 Why Did You Let Go 

“Kallum…” Victory seemed within reach, yet Calista felt she had already pushed herself to the limit. She yearned to grip his hand tightly, but her fingers were devoid of any sensation. Is this fate? 

A faint, pallid smile appeared on her lips. 

“There are many things I regret, many things I wish I could do over. But the one thing I don’t regret is falling for you.” 

After she finished speaking, her hand relaxed. 

The moment she loosened her grip, Kallum could no longer hold onto her. Even though the helicopter had already stabilized, Calista closed her eyes. In that instant, Kallum’s pupils constricted. Without a second thought, he unbuckled his safety buckle the moment Calista slipped from his fingertips. 

Calista was like a falling leaf, swiftly descending downward. The wind whipped her hair wildly about, and yet. Kallum was diving headfirst, like an arrow shooting toward her, reaching out to grasp her hand. 

Their hands were half a meter apart, but in mid–air, they clenched once more. Calista’s heart gave at sudden leap, and she found herself being pulled into an embrace. 

At that moment, many people found themselves holding their breath. 

The gale was tearing at their clothes like a blade, and in the pitch darkness, the searchlight in Kallum’s hand fell like a shooting star, slippin 

from everyone’s view. 

Calista couldn’t see Kallum’s expression, yet she could picture it in her mind. 

“Why…” 

Kallum held her tightly. 

“There’s no why. I just did it subconsciously.” 

Once he finished speaking, he tugged at the rope. In an instant, the parachute was inflated to fullness by the wind. At that moment, the thousands of people below the mountain, who had initially lost all hope, erupted into cheers. 

They survived! 

Kallum had never used a parachute before. He wasn’t the type to seek thrills for the sake of it. However, when their lives hung in the balance, and perhaps because of her, he managed to use the knowledge he had acquired in the past. At the most crucial moment, he deployed the parachute, ensuring their safe landing 

Everyone cheered and ran toward the direction where they had descended. By the time they arrived, Kallum was already holding Calista‘ under the tree. 

“Why did you let go?” Kallum was still brooding over this incident. Just a second ago, he was so scared that his heart seemed to stop beating. 

Calista let out a yawn.

Calista’s voice gradually faded, and just like that, at such a heart–stopping moment, she drifted off to sleep..
