Chapter 142 Longings And Desires
Could he locate the vein?
Of course Kallum could. Over time, having received so much treatment, he had practically become a doctor himself. However, upon noticing that Calista was reluctarit, he cast a glance at Shaun.
With a cheerful tone, Shaun assured, “Don’t worry, I’ll give you the Injection later.”
With that, he swiftly led his people away.
Nowadays, wherever Kallum went, he was always accompanied by two people to prevent any mishaps. However, with Calista around, there was no need for worry. It was a mystery where this young girl got all her ingenious ideas from.
The experts and professors in the labs couldn’t stop singing her praises. Their secret research on the K virus was way ahead of any other country’s progress! If they were not still bound by secrecy, their current achievements would undoubtedly have shaken the world!
Of course, there was still a long way to go before conquering the K virus.
However, with Calista around, they all felt confident, and their belief in oneself was also strengthened.
After everyone had left, Kallum began to feel nervous. Calista had her back to him, revealing a large expanse of her fair skin. The wound on it was ghastly, but the stark contrast of red against white was incredibly striking. His breaths became ragged, and he was almost trembling as he continued to apply medicine to her wound.
Calista had quite a night and was rather worn out. She closed her eyes to rest, her long, starry sky dress trailing the floor in tatters. Even indoors, its brilliance was undeniable. Yet, its radiance could never compare to the dazzling person wearing it.
Calista was leaning there, much like a wounded mermaid. Every curve of her body exuded an enchanting beauty that could rival the marvels of nature itself.
Kallum admitted he was bewitched. His fingers were slightly stiff as he held back. In the past, without a second thought, he would have pulled the woman before him into his arms, kissed her gorgeous hair, punished those who dared to annoy her, and brought her under his protective wing.
The room was eerily quiet, an unnatural silence hanging in the air. Unable to bear it any longer, Calista initiated a conversation. “Almost slipped my mind, were you alright today?”
Kallum’s voice echoed within the quiet, private space, carrying a somewhat husky tone that hinted at an enticing allure.
“I’m fine. I didn’t eat anything, nor/did I drink alcohol. Apart from you, I didn’t interact with anyone else.”
Calista didn’t catch the strangeness in his response and nodded in reassurance. However, she feared that Kallum might find his current life too restrictive and oppressive. After all, the patient’s mood was crucial. She said, “You don’t have to feel oppressed.”
As Kallum applied the medigine, his hand paused momentarily. Seated on the sofa, his body involuntarily
Balance:
857 +0

That peculiar sensation returned. Calista felt an overwhelming presence from Kallum standing behind her. He was merely applying medicine, yet it felt incredibly oppressive. However, she couldn’t refuse. Perhaps Kallum was just trying to do something for her, to prove himself. If she rejected him, he might think she was just like everyone else, afraid of him, which wouldn’t be conducive to his treatment.
