Her Rebirth of Retribution novel Chapter 363

Calista slightly raised an eyebrow. “No rush. I still have some things left unfinished.”

Jarrett wore a look of disappointment, half-jokingly leaning in closer. He whispered into her ear, “Actually, I don't care if the child in your belly is mine or not. Won't you consider me, especially after Kallum called off the wedding?”

“What are you talking about?”

Without anyone noticing, Kallum had suddenly walked over. He wore a smile on his lips, but his whole demeanor radiated an intense chill. It was as if he was ready to drive out intruders from his territory. Kallum's hostility made everyone around feel uncomfortable.

Jarrett took a step back, expressing a hint of regret. “Look at this. It's been so long, and we don't even have time to catch up.”

Kallum would never forget Jarrett's subtle ambition toward Calista. His guard was up, at an all-time high. Without a hint of emotion, he stepped between the two. His tall figure completely shielded Calista as he scoffed coldly.

“It's not that I don't want to, but Callie has been having a tough time lately. I'm sure you're aware that carrying a first baby is always like this.”

Jarrett's expression finally took a turn for the worse. He let out an ambiguous laugh. “If that's the case, I won't overstay my welcome.”

He glanced toward Calista, a flash of light behind his glasses. “Take care of yourself. In crucial moments, don't forget our agreement.”

Calista nodded, watching him as he left.

Kallum hadn't expected that Calista actually had an agreement with Jarrett.

He couldn't help but burn with jealousy, especially when Calista ignored him and engaged in an animated conversation with another man. He was seething with resentment.

“What did you agree upon with him?”

Kallum glared at her with a warning look, his words seething through clenched teeth. “Don't forget. You're still my woman!” And, of course, she would always be. “So, you better not harbor any unnecessary thoughts.” She shouldn't even think about other men.

Calista felt somewhat helpless as she moved closer to him. From an outsider's perspective, it looked as if they were in an embrace.

“Mr. Kallum, I'm pregnant now. Who would be interested in me? You're being too sensitive.”

Her soft lips inadvertently brushed against Kallum's sensitive spot, causing his ears to flush red instantly and his breathing to hasten slightly.

In the past, he and Calista were close whenever they wanted to be. But recently, their cold war had lasted so long, he hadn't... With that thought, Kallum felt his heart suddenly flare with warmth, and his gaze on Calista became fervent.

And at that moment, an unexpected turn of events occurred.

Suddenly, a woman crawled out from under the long table. She was holding a wine bottle in her hand and was screaming at Calista.
