Her Rebirth of Retribution novel Chapter 437

Kallum's voice was incredibly hoarse, and he had a dazed and harmless look on his face.

It was rare of him to give off such a vibe. When he was alert, he was always full of vigor and vitality, radiating an intensity and warmth akin to that of a diamond.

Calista nodded. “Do you want to sleep on the bed?

Kallum stared at his computer. “But there is still an unfinished document...”

“You can deal with those tomorrow.”

“But this document is of utmost urgency. It simply can't wait until tomorrow.”

Calista pulled out her trump card and bent over to whisper in his ear, “Don't tell me you've forgotten? You said it yourself that you wanted a reward for this matter, remember?”

Kallum's previously muddled mind suddenly became alert.

I mentioned before that I would want consummation once this matter was resolved. Could it be that...

Calista nodded. “Yes, that's right. I agree to it, so let's go to bed!”

Go to bed?

In that moment, Kallum felt as if he had been injected with a shot of adrenaline, standing up with a renewed vigor.

Ten minutes later, Kallum found himself feeling nonplussed while being held in Calista's embrace.

“Is this what you call consummation?” Sleeping on the same bed, at most, could be considered sharing a bed.

“Yup! Doesn't hugging you count?”

Kallum intended to argue his case with a reasoned argument, but he was held back by Calista.

“Go to sleep, or else I'll move to another room to sleep, and you won't even get the chance to hold me!”

Kallum pursed his lips, muttering softly, “What a miser.”

“What did you say?”

“Ah, it's nothing. Time for bed!” Kallum said as he pulled Calista into his arms.

In less than three seconds, he had fallen asleep.

He slept deeply, far more peacefully than when he had previously slept on the table.

Calista studied his finely chiseled profile, her fingers carefully brushing against his long eyelashes. His eyes fluttered slightly, yet he didn't open them, only furrowing his brows slightly. The corners of his mouth seemed to lift a bit, giving off a hint of dissatisfaction.

As if bewitched, Calista drew just a bit closer to him.

Just what kind of person are you, really?
