Chapter 41 Deal With One First.
“Why are you here?”
Kallum saw her expression was only that of irritation, and there was no sign of looking happy to see someone she was in love with. He started to think that Calista was a fantastic actress if he hadn’t heard her say it herself, he wouldn’t have known the extent of her feelings for him.
He suppressed the happy bubble that was rising in his heart, and arrogantly said, “I heard you moved out to live by yourself, so I’m here to see what sort of place you’re staying in.”
But seriously, he was very unhappy with this apartment. It was too small and too simple- Calista stay in such a place?
– how could
Calista was amused by his randomness. “If you have something to say, just say it. We’re not familiar enough to chit chat about our daily lives”
Kallum frowned, the frown line like a crack on his handsome face.
Calista’s acting was too realistic – he could see the disgust in her eyes, as if she really didn’t want to see him. Looks like he has to force her then.
Kallum laughed as he used his beautifully almond shaped eyes to look down at her. “You are my fiancée, what do you mean by not familiar? Or….are you trying to hint at something else?”
Calista looked up coldly at Kallum – was it because she was no longer normal, so the world had also become abnormal? Why did she feel like Kallum was behaving strangely today?
“Have you forgotten that I have backed out of the engagement?” Calista suddenly thought of another possible reason. “Or are you saying that you don’t want me to use the Fairchild name to do things, so you’re here to mock me?”
Kallum saw that her train of thought had gone way off topic, so he decided to remove her ‘disguise.
“Enough – I heard what you said just now. Since you still like me, why do you still pretend to reject me and keep me at an arm’s length?”
He wanted to smile but covered it with a cough, and said arrogantly, “I didn’t even know you were completely devoted to me.”
Calista had a strange look on her face.
So Kallum had thought her answer to get Jarrett off her back was for real?
“I have to clarify one thing.”
Calista continued in a solemn voice, “I am no longer engaged to you, and I only want to become the Fairchilds‘ goddaughter. I said that earlier because it was convenient to use your name. But if you don’t want your name to be used like that, I will not use it anymore.”
Kallum changed for a moment but he suddenly burst out laughing. “Almost got fooled by you!”
He teased her back, “So you were not happy about backing out of the engagement? It’s not really that serious you know, since there’s no official announcement about it, so you can still change your mind.

Chapter 41 Deal With One First
Wasn’t she trying to use her goddaughter status to get closer to him?
His words made Calista frown even harder. She emphasized every word, “I really don’t like you anymore.”
Kallum pushed her against the wall.
“You don’t like me? It has been eleven years from the first time you said you liked me until now! You mean eleven years of feelings for me can just disappear like that?”
And of course, the repeated attempts to seduce him.
“If you don’t like me, then why would you say something like that to someone else? Calista, is it so difficult to acknowledge your own feelings? Now that I have this desire for you, are you sure you want to give up this fantastic chance?”
He sounded very confident of himself, and he let out a laugh. “Admit it! Then be my woman!”
Thinking about it this way made marrying her not seem so difficult to accept anymore.
Calista had her back against the wall, and she looked up at Kallum in front of her and was completely speechless.
What did he mean by he desired her? What did he mean by becoming his woman? Had he mad? How was he spouting such nonsense?
“Do you believe in oaths?” Calista asked quietly.
Kallum’s beautiful eyes lit up at this. “If it’s an oath about me, I will believe it..
Calista nodded, then put up her hand to start her oath. “Today 1, Calista, solemnly swear that if I still have feelings for Kallum, then I will die horribly! After dying I will be flung into the deepest dungeon of hell…”
Before she could finish, Kallum cupped a hand over her mouth and suddenly frowned. “What is the meaning of this?!”
The playfulness on his face disappeared, and his eyes began to look threatening.
Calista said resignedly, “Didn’t you say you have a desire for my body? That’s easily settled, just have it then. I want to become the Fairchilds‘ goddaughter, we have a deal on that! You can’t back out on your part of the deal like this!”
Her stubborn attitude was so resolute, her words disregarding emotion and desire – it made Kallum’s heart suddenly freeze over.
Calista would rather let him sleep with her than to admit that she liked him…unless she really…!.
Calista replied calmly. “So that you don’t keep thinking about what you weren’t able to obtain, and then keep getting in my way.”
This mouth of hers could really drive people up the wall!
Kallum started letting anger get the better of him, and decided to obey the desire of his body so that she would shut up!
He pressed her against the wall, the two young bodies tightly meshed with one another, except one was naked and the other was fully clothed.
