Chapter 286 Brothers In Distress.
But what’s this sense of sweetness within met Is Calista… worried about me, so came to say all this to ease my mind? No, the more I think about it, the more embarrassed it is! I’m not… not that unreliable, right?
Regardless, Calista’s rare assurance had Kallum’s gloomy mood from the past few days instantly take a turn
for the better.
However, even with her promise, he still couldn’t help but again ask in worry, “Are you really that
confident?”
Calista nodded without hesitation, spreading her fingers before clenching them fiercely. “K Virus? It’s nothing more than a prickly toy!”
She flashed him a somewhat arrogant smile that completely dispelled the gloom hanging over him.
Knowing that Calista was confident and wouldn’t die, Kallum felt like a massive weight had been taken off him. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say he felt a sense of relief after a close brush with death.
He took a moment to calm his racing heart.
Then, holding her hand, he said in utmost solemnity, “This is the last time! In the future, no matter the reason, you can’t put yourself in such danger! Can you promise me that?”
Her violet eyes flickered slightly, his handsome face taut with anticipation. He looked at her earnestly, waiting only for her promise.
After this incident, there shouldn’t be any further danger. Following that thought, Calista nodded in agreement.
“Of course. I highly value my life. You can always trust that I won’t do anything I have no confidence about achieving, let alone gamble with my own life.”
The couple exchanged a glance and smiled. For the first time, they truly appreciated the beauty of being alive.
Kallum pinched her somewhat pale face. He couldn’t resist chuckling and replying, “You’re absolutely right. We’re brothers in distress now!”
“Despite having a lot of money, every second is unbearable,” Calista added somberly.
Kallum couldn’t help but burst out laughing. He held Calista even tighter as if cradling a delicate doll, cherishing her immensely.
“Oh, I almost forgot. You’re also a wealthy lady, aren’t you?”
“I’m still inferior to you. You’re a tycoon.”
“But… what’s mine is yours. I, too, belong to you.”
Suddenly, Calista let out a sigh/“If you had presented yourself like this from the start, I definitely wouldn’t have fallen for you.”

“Are you saying you don’t like me? I dare you to repeat it once more.”
With a mischievous smile playing on her lips, she continued. “I’m a patient now. Could you bring yourself to do anything to me? Hmm?”
Callie and I are both infected. So, intimacy between us is seemingly… not… forbidden anymore? Being intimate with
D*mn it! How could I entertain such a thought at a time like this? I’m a downright monster!
“If it’s truly going to take that long, you should take some painkillers! I can’t stand to see you in pain.”
Calista shook her head. “I’ve got a grasp on the progression of the virus now. If you find it hard to bear, you can take some painkillers. My previous research was successful. In a few days, I’ll have some new painkillers. They have fewer side effects and lower dependence but a strong analgesic effect. Consider it…. gift from me for your upcoming recovery?”
Thinking about my pain, she took time out of her busy schedule to develop a painkiller with minimal side effects. If she were a man, she would undoubtedly be the kind of man who could charm women without uttering a word.
