Yelena’s captivating performance deeply moved Benedict. “All right, get up now! You shouldn’t do this.”
The two of them were fussing and tugging at each other while Calista didn’t so much as bat an eyelid.
With a hardened resolve, Yelena pushed away Benedict and slid the coffee cup toward Calista. “Callie, please be magnanimous and overlook my past mistakes this time. I promise to be a better person from
now on!”
Calista’s gaze fell on the coffee cup. “What difference does it make whether I forgive you or not?”
Yelena quickly pleaded, “Forgive me, just have this cup of coffee…”
Narrowing her eyes, Calista gave the coffee cup a quick glance, and surprisingly, she ended up taking it.
Seeing Calista holding the coffee cup. Yelena secretly clenched her fist. She had added a lot of vinegar to the coffee. If Calista drank it, she would surely get angry! By then, Benedict, seeing Calista’s unreasonable behavior, would certainly side with her. At least, that was what Yelena believed.
If Calista refused to drink it, Benedict would realize how inhuman Calista was, that even when she was on her knees, Calista showed no sign of empathy.
As such, Yelena believed she would win regardless of what happened.
Lowering her head, Calista took a sniff and asked with a smile, “What kind of coffee is this?”
“Apple cider latte…” Yelena said timidly. At first glance, she really looked like an innocent woman who had been bullied.
“Apple cider?” Calista chuckled lightly, taking a sip. A sour and astringent taste exploded on her taste buds, causing her to narrow her eyes slightly. Yelena held her breath in anticipation of the impending storm, all the while readying herself for protection!
Upon seeing Calista sipping her coffee, Benedict breathed a sigh of relief. “Aren’t you going to get up? Callic has forgiven you!”
Yelena was somewhat baffled because that wasn’t what she had envisioned! Why hasn’t Calista lost her temper yet?
Thus, she hesitated and finally plucked up the courage to ask, “Callie, is it good? It’s my first time making this. I don’t have much experience.”
“It tastes quite good.” Calista held the cup up, smiling as she looked at Yelena. “You said you realized your mistakes, that you want to start anew, and you even begged for my forgiveness. I can do that and believe you, but only if you finish this cup of coffee. How does that sound?”
A stiff expression crossed Yelena’s face. “This is… You’ve drunk from this already-
Calista found that she truly enjoyed teasing Yelena. With a relaxed smile, she asked, “Are you disgusted?”
“No…” Yelena felt as if she had shot herself in the foot, especially with Benedict watching right beside her.

Chapter 397 Forgive Me
However, she had overestimated herself. Earlier, in an attempt to provoke Calista, she had added too much cacao nibs and vinegar to the drink. Thus, drinking that coffee was practically a death sentence!
Originally, Yelena intended to down her drink in one go, but after just a sip, she couldn’t help but feel the urge to vomit!
It seemed as though Calista knew Yelena couldn’t handle it. The moment Yelena took a sip, Calista swiftly covered the former’s mouth! “Swallow it down. If you dare to spit it out, I’ll make you lick it clean!”
At that moment, Yelena was reminded of the night when Calista had ruthlessly insisted she swallow the money. With a sudden relaxation in her throat, she actually managed to swallow it down!
After swallowing, Yelena hastily attempted to get up and find some water to drink. However, Calista held Yelena down by the shoulder, making it impossible for her even to stand.
“Why are you running?” Calista’s voice remained steady, yet it carried an undeniable authority. She took the cup
with a cold, mocking smile. “Weren’t you begging for my forgiveness? How come you can’t even finish a cup of coffee?”
At that point, Benedict also realized something was afoot, that coffee seemed to be more than it appeared.
Tears welled up in Yelena’s eyes because of the overwhelming bitterness. Yet, she found herself instinctively making excuses. “Callie, I’m sorry. I accidentally added too much apple cider. I’ll go make a new cup right away!”

“No worries,” Calista said good–naturedly as she couch. She spread her legs and leaned in toward her. “Once you finish that cup, I won’t hold it against you.”
