Her Rebirth of Retribution novel Chapter 295

“Calista!” Seeing her wanting to leave without even offering an explanation, Kallum lost all rationality. He stormed forward to cut her off, holding her and pressing her tightly against the wall.

The advantage of this position was that he didn't have to worry about her running away.

“Darn it! Trying to escape? You better answer me first!”

His breath enveloped her instantly. Despite his stern countenance and harsh tone, it was undeniable that the moment he drew close to her, Kallum's voice unconsciously softened.

His anger came quickly, but it also dissipated just as rapidly when he was faced with her, especially when he thought about how hard Calista had been working recently. He simply couldn't bear to truly blame her, and his outburst was merely the result of being able to control his own emotions.

Under Kallum's intense gaze, from which she could not escape, Calista had no choice but to meet his stare.

Especially upon witnessing the concern beneath his anger and how his stance quickly softened, she felt a sting in her heart, causing her to abruptly close her eyes in pain.

It's clear that I am in the wrong. I shouldn't have let a mere dream dictate my emotions, allowing negativity to take control of my mood. Logically speaking, Kallum hadn't really done anything wrong in his previous life.

She repeated a mantra to herself three times in her mind, each repetition quelling the lingering frustration within her. When Calista opened her eyes again, they were filled with a sense of helplessness. Being in a romantic relationship really didn't suit her current circumstances. There were just too many things that Kallum had to be careful about when it came to her.

After a moment of contemplation, she suddenly stood on her tiptoes and gently kissed Kallum on the lips. Her eyes, sparkling like stars, gazed at him as if they could speak.

“Don't be angry anymore, okay?”

Rendered speechless, Kallum was on the verge of going insane.

How is it that before I can even vent my anger, I am completely disarmed by just one look from her? What on earth is going on?

Who could possibly stay angry when the woman they liked had just kissed them and was now looking at them like that?

However, if he were to just let it go, he would be giving up his authority as a husband in the future.

Kallum wore a scowl on his face, his eyes flickering as he refused to look at her. His expression clearly conveyed that he was not that easy to appease and she had to try harder to earn his forgiveness.

Such an expression triggered a chuckle from Calista.

She wrapped her arms around Kallum's waist and tilted her head up, affectionately nuzzling against him.

“A few days ago, I had a nightmare, so... I was a bit shaken up, but I'm fine now. Can we please not dwell on this anymore?”
