Her Rebirth of Retribution novel Chapter 323

Kallum was taken aback, immediately refuting, “That's impossible!”

At that moment, Quintus interrupted with a tremble in his voice. “Mr. Kallum, we're here.”

Calista turned her head and sure enough, she was greeted by an expansive sea of flowers. Pointing toward them, she said, “You knew all along that everything here would hurt me, yet you still forced me to come. Isn't that causing harm?”

Kallum furrowed his brows. “I just want you to confront it, running away won't solve anything!”

“What if the outcome is that we become enemies?” Suddenly, Calista laughed. “Let me ask you, if going in there again would drive me mad, would you still force me to go?”

This time, it was Kallum's turn to remain silent for a long while.

“I will!”

He suddenly spoke, catching Calista off guard. Yet, he spoke with an unwavering tone, emphasizing each word. “Because you're not one to lose your sanity. You're not that fragile. After all, you're the one who can drive me to madness. How could you possibly be defeated by something imaginary?”

Calista was taken aback, about to say something, when Kallum silenced her with a kiss.

This time, he exerted a great deal of strength, pinning Calista down onto the seat and kissing her with a fervor close to madness. He had already wanted to do this back at Wyatt's house. The days without her had nearly driven him to insanity.

However, Calista resisted it.

She struggled vehemently, but every move she made was countered by him. When she tried to kick him away, Kallum simply held down her legs. When she attempted to push him away, he seized both her hands above her head. In the end, all Calista could do was to try to bite him, but Kallum used his other hand to lock her jaw, preventing her from clenching her teeth. She was forced to keep her mouth open. Powerless to resist his kiss, she was being drawn by him into a whirlwind of madness.

They hadn't shared a kiss this intense in a long time. This kiss was charged with pent-up frustration, yet it was incredibly tender, as if they were facing the end of the world.

After their kiss, Kallum looked down at her, his handsome face filled with a mixture of bitterness and self-mockery.

“Can you feel it?” He pointed to his own heart. “I am the one who's going crazy!”

Calista gasped for breath, seemingly scorched by his intense gaze. She quickly pushed him away and without looking back, she exited the car.

“Come in with me!”

She hadn't walked far when Kallum caught her hand. At that moment, Calista felt a wave of anxiety and confusion. She looked at him, almost pleadingly. It was the first time she had ever felt fear.

“Kallum! Kallum, can we not go in, please?”

“No, you must confront it! Unless you tell me, what is it that you're afraid of!”
