Her Rebirth of Retribution novel Chapter 446

“Then, let's have dinner. Stop thinking about those troublesome people. Anyway, their fate in the future is in your hands.”

At Kallum's words, Calista nodded. That's true.

So, she stopped thinking about those annoying people and focused on enjoying her meal.

“By the way, our family is planning a party in a few days. Thanks to you, the Fairchild family had a moment in the spotlight. Those on the board of directors are eager to meet you and express their gratitude,” Kallum said with a smile.

“Okay. Whatever you say,” Calista replied nonchalantly.

Inwardly, her mind wandered. If there were to be a party, he probably wouldn't have that much time to seek me out anymore. This would also give me the time to sort my thoughts out properly.

Sure enough, Kallum was quite busy these past two days. The house also saw its fair share of guests. Calista inexorably breathed a sigh of relief.

However, a girl among them was Kallum's cousin. She had just returned from abroad and was utterly astounded when she saw Calista, insisting that a child born of Calista and Kallum's genetic combination would be absolutely breathtaking.

Taken aback by her enthusiasm, Calista hid at the hospital. In her absence, the girl went to Kallum. However, her cousin was swamped and had no time to entertain her.

“Kallum, what have you been so busy with? It's been days. Yet, you haven't had a proper conversation with me!”

Yulissa Fairchild pestered Kallum. Noticing that he was engrossed in his computer, she sneaked a peek when he was not paying attention and burst out laughing.

“What on earth is all this? A hundred ways to woo your wife and how to win the heart of your love? My goodness! You're actually hiding here, reading this stuff?” Yulissa dramatically exclaimed.

Now that Kallum had been discovered, his ears turned a deep shade of red. He glared at her hard. “Stop causing trouble, kid. Go and play outside.”

“I haven't been a kid for a long time. I've even had three boyfriends!” Yulissa huffed.

Her eyes suddenly flickered, and she snickered wickedly. “No way! Kallum, you still haven't won over Calista? Hmm, I think Calista seems to be avoiding you!”

Upon noticing that Kallum's expression darkened in an instant, she delightedly moved closer and nudged him with her elbow.

“Don't tell me... you two haven't... done the deed yet? Are you serious? You've known each other for twenty years! Kallum, you're really dropping the ball here. Surely, you can't be impotent, right?”

“Of course not!” Kallum instantly retorted as the matter concerned his male pride and allure. With a cold expression, he fibbed, “I was just... killing time by reading these books, okay?”

A hint of cunningness showed on Yulissa's rounded face.

“Really?” She smirked, baring her canine teeth. “Then, why haven't I seen you two sleeping together these past few days?”

Ah, it turns out she has noticed something amiss a while ago.

Kallum gave her a stern look, then flipped his laptop shut.

“All right, you're not needed here. Go bother my mom if you're bored!”

Yulissa harrumphed. Seeing that he appeared ready to work seriously, she dragged her feet toward the door.
