Chapter 383 1 Will Die With You
Her hand had gone mumb from the biting cold wind, yet when she heard Kallum’s voice, she managed to type out: Im not scared. You shouldn’t be either!
A pang of sorrow abruptly struck Kallum’s heart. He pursed his lips tightly to maintain his composure.
The sky had turned dark, rendering everything invisible. Aside from the faint glow of the phone, the surrounding was engulfed in pitch black. The ledge beneath held the threat of a fatal fall should it give
way.
How could she possibly not be scared?
How could he possibly not be scared?
Fearing that his own apprehension would affect Calista, Kallum took a deep breath and said with an exceptionally resolute tone, “Callie, you’ll be all right!” He forced himself to laugh a bit, his tone light and breezy. “I’m right below you. We’re very close. Trust me!”
Even though the words were meant to be light–hearted, they somehow choked up the more sensitive. listeners, leaving them feeling overwhelmed.
This man, who was previously so nervous that he couldn’t articulate his thoughts properly, was now feigning composure so as not to frighten the girl.
At that moment, they all wished for the man to find the girl swiftly. They desperately hoped that she would be all right.
The altitude of Narrow Sky Gorge was high, so even though Calista was only a dozen or so meters away from them, using wave measurement to pinpoint her exact location still took time. Kallum was anxious, his heart burning with worry. Had it not been for the strong winds in the gorge preventing the drone from taking off, he wouldn’t have been so concerned.
Calista couldn’t help but let out a soft gasp. She distinctly felt the boulder beneath her feet slip.
The surface, originally flat, had started to tilt slightly downward. Her heart felt as if it was about to leap out of her chest. Yet, her mind had never been so clear.
After she steadied herself, she suddenly typed out: I have a way for you to find me.
Kallum felt something was off. If Calista had a solution, she wouldn’t have waited until now to speak up. Nonetheless, he still asked, “What’s your plan?”
Swallowing nervously, Calista slowly rose to her feet, pressing her back against the cliff face. She took a deep breath before replying: Before, I was afraid to use the gun as the slightest noise could cause the rocks to tumble down. But now, the rocks have already started to loosen! I don’t have much time left… Set the acoustic sensor to receive mode. I’m about to fire the gun!
“No!” Kallum said urgently. “Given your current state, firing a gun will only hasten the loosening of the
rocks!”
Calista: There’s no faster method than this.

Calista Kalium!
Kallum’s gaze hardened
Calista: 7 believe you can find me in the shortest time possible and come to my rescue, right?
Calista Sightr
At that moment, it didn’t feel like they were separated by two phones and a radio station. It was as if they were face to face, she at the foot of the cliff and he at the top.
His pounding heart found a moment of peace suddenly.
After a while, which was actually just a fleeting moment, Kallum said, “Right, I’ll find you in the shortest time possible.”
Calista smiled with a pale expression. She took out the gun and looked at the pitch–black night before her, suddenly not so afraid anymore because the faint light in her hand was her only connection to the world. Before she pulled the trigger, she paused and typed out: If I fall after the gunshot, you must live on well.
“No!” Kallum shouted into his phone. “No way! Calista, if you die, I will not live on well! I absolutely
won’t!”
His voice was hoarse and strained, clearly filled with extreme fear. Many female listeners couldn’t help but cry, yet Calista found herself laughing.
Her muscles had considerably relaxed, and it seemed as though her fingers regained some sensation as she replied playfully: Judging by the sound of your voice, I can tell how frustrated you are. You’ve never been known for your patience or temper, but… to me, it’s nothing short of a miracle.
“Don’t you dare utter such bizarre words again!” Kallum’s eyes were bloodshot as he spoke through gritted teeth. “Stop talking! At the sound of the gunshot, I will find you and bring you home!”
Calista pursed her lips and smiled.
Calista: You know what? I wasn’t scared at all before, but when I saw how much you cared, I suddenly became afraid.
Kallum’s heart was gripped by her words.
“You don’t have to be afraid,” he you fall, I’ll be there to catch you.”
