Her Rebirth of Retribution novel Chapter 26

“Then you have to be careful.”

Calista looked down and hid her face in the dark, “It’s very dangerous to be interested in a woman. I can tell you now that if you fall for me, it won’t be a pleasant experience.”

Kallum couldn’t help but laugh, “You seem very confident of yourself? Don’t worry, I didn’t fall for you for more than ten years, it will be impossible in the future.”

Calista unexpectedly nodded in agreement and said hoarsely, “You’re right…never mind ten odd years…even if I give you another ten odd years, you won’t fall for me. I was just kidding earlier, don’t worry. I know myself.”

For some reason, Kallum could tell the bitterness in Calista’s face. He suddenly felt a bitterness in his heart too, the feeling so quick and so urgent, it made him upset about what he just said earlier.

Calista opened her eyes again.

Since Kallum was so sincere, and she was so disadvantaged now, wasn’t it a good chance to gain some advantage? So she suddenly said, “I don’t need compensation, but I think we can strike a deal.”

Kallum put aside the confused and messy thoughts and asked in a serious voice, “What sort of deal?”

Calista replied, “I know you’ve always wanted to expand into the pharmaceutical industry, but you haven’t found anyone brilliant enough to compete or surpass other companies’ formulas and talents. But I can do that! We can have an agreement – within three years, I’ll help your pharmaceutical company become a global competitor worth billions of dollars, and you will only have to do one thing for me.”

What she just described sounded like an impossible dream, and Kallum wanted to laugh at her for being too ambitious. But when he saw the seriousness in Calista’s eyes, he stopped breathing for a moment. “What do you want me to do?” Kallum couldn’t help but ask.

Calista curled her lips into a smile, exuding a different sort of elegance in the night sky. “I want to be the Fairchilds’ goddaughter, a proper one, with actual power. Give me three years and I’ll have a billion dollar company for you! Do we have a deal?”

If it were any other person standing in front of Kallum, he would definitely not listen to this crazy babbling.

But since it was Calista…she made him consider her proposal very seriously, even though it sounded impossible.

“A billion dollars isn’t something you earn by just saying. Why should I believe that you can do it?”

Kallum’s eyes sharpened – since Calista refused to make any requests and wanted to strike a deal instead, then he would follow the process of making a deal instead. He wanted to see how Calista was going to persuade him, since being the goddaughter of the Fairchilds was already worth billions in itself.

Calista rubbed her fists together and started walking towards him. “Because the Staffords have been palace doctors for nine generations.”

“Because their skills have been passed down to me, and these are skills that nobody else has!”

She had already walked right in front of Kallum, standing extremely close to him.

Calista lifted her head, her wet hair drawing wavy lines on her face, exuding a merciless sort of beauty. “Well…if you don’t believe me, I can prove it.”

Just as she finished saying this, her expression suddenly focused, and the silver needle she prepared in her hands suddenly pierced right into Kallum’s chest with incredible speed!

Kallum took a step back, holding his chest in shock and staring at her. In the next moment, he could feel heat from his chest, and even though he tried to find it a few times, the needle had simply disappeared.
