Her Rebirth of Retribution novel Chapter 298

Calista glanced at her. “What did you want to tell me about Quincy?”

Seeing that Calista was impervious to her friendly gesture, Mirabelle had no choice but to abandon her plan of befriending the former.

She said bitterly, “You're not aware yet, are you? Quincy has recently gotten involved with a bigwig!”

“A bigwig?” Calista raised an eyebrow nonchalantly. “How big?”

Mirabelle didn't spill the beans right away. Instead, she decided to keep Calista in suspense.

“She asked me to relay a message to you. In three days, the Wolford family is hosting a banquet and she insists on your presence.”

Worried that Calista might not take it seriously, she added, “She also mentioned that if you don't go, Benedict might suffer a minor mishap...”

Only then did Calista look at her with a concerned expression.

“Since it's difficult to guard against her, I think you should really make the trip.”

Calista didn't give an answer. Instead, she suddenly asked, “What about you? How was your experience in prison this past year?”

Mirabelle's face suddenly changed.

“It seems it wasn't really good. Perhaps you had to curse me every day in prison just to get through the day. So what was it that prompted you, after getting out, to pretend to want to be friends with me?”

“Calista!”

Mirabelle gritted her teeth, her face instantly darkening. “Has anyone ever told you how annoying you are!”

“There might be.”

Upon witnessing Calista's dismissive expression, Mirabelle could no longer keep up her act and spoke out in frustration.

“That's the very look! What's so special about you? You're only relying on Kallum's affection for you. If it weren't for the Fairchild family, Harvey, no, Sterling would have destroyed you! What reason is there for you to feel so smug?”

“Before, I wasn't too pleased, but seeing your disdain for me and your inability to get rid of me, I'm quite satisfied now.”

“Heh, aren't you celebrating a bit too soon?” Mirabelle sneered, her voice lowering to a whisper. “Men change, especially men like Kallum. He can have anything he wants, so do you really think he'd be loyal to you?”

Calista remained silent.

Mirabelle continued in a disdainful tone, “Think about how much he despised you back then, and how much he values you now. It's just like how much he valued me before, and what is his attitude toward me now? What has happened to me will be what's awaiting you!”
