Second Chance His Unending Love (Calista Hartwell) novel Chapter 102

Chapter 102

Calista was busy studying stocks in Evander’s study.

During this period, she had taken a liking to two projects and, after some analysis and research, felt they had great potential.

But since those two projects had already been financed and listed, she switched to buying stocks, waiting to make

a profit.

Right then, Calista saw Austin’s incoming call.

After hesitating for a moment, Calista answered.

Austin asked coldly and awkwardly, “Where are you right

now?”

Calista replied very plainly, “Get to the point.”

Their mode of conversation was nothing like that of a mother and son.

Two months ago, they were still closely bonded by blood. Now, they were worse than strangers.

Austin cleared his throat lightly. “Do you want to come back? If you apologize to me, I’ll agree to let you return.”

Calista was full of confusion.

His father just finished saying this kind of thing, and now here he comes with it too.

Calista replied with just one word, “No.”

“Then accompany my dad to a party tomorrow. I’ll send you the time and address. Dress up nicely. If you get this done, I can still help you out when you’re old.”

Calista sneered, “Not needed,” and then decisively hung up the phone.

When Austin called again, she directly blocked the

number.

Even if Austin blamed her for being heartless or said she was irresponsible, she no longer cared.

From the moment he sided with Nicole and tried to set her up with his father, I lost a son.

I don’t rely on him at all for my retirement.

As for attending a party, absolutely not!

Seeing that he could no longer reach his mother, Austin angrily threw his phone into the corner of the wall.

Even though this phone was a gift from Nicole, he didn’t care at all.

His handsome eyes were clouded over, concealing anger.

No matter what, I will never let Dad marry that woman!

When Evander returned after finishing his work, he asked Alisa about Calista’s whereabouts.

Alisa smiled mysteriously, “Mr. Hayes, I’ve been keeping an eye on Ms. Hartwell for you!”

Evander put on a stern face. “Alisa, that’s surveillance.

Don’t do that in the future. I never intended to restrict

her freedom.”

He did want her to stay here permanently, but definitely not in this way.

Alisa tsked, “I wasn’t surveilling Ms. Hartwell. I just… whenever she tried to go out, I’d complain about back pain or leg pain. Ms. Hartwell was worried something might happen to me, so she wouldn’t leave.”

Evander was surprised that this method could achieve the goal.

“You silly boy, you can’t be too straightforward when chasing women. You need to have gentlemanly manners, but also clever little tricks. Otherwise, how will you ever catch up with her?”

Evander retorted, “You’re seventy years old. No need to teach me dating techniques.”

I’m not so incompetent that I need a seventy-year-old to teach me how to chase women.

Alisa looked at him and let out an unsparing, dismissive snort, clearly looking down on him.

“I may be seventy, but I’ve been in love, gotten married, and had children. What about you? You’re either at the base all year round or hanging out with a bunch of men. You know nothing about pursuing a woman!”

Evander felt as if he’d been stabbed in the heart.

“Alisa, please spare me.”

Alisa transformed into the head of a shipping fan. “Don’t worry, silly boy! I’ll help you.”

Evander cupped his hands in a salute. “Then, thank you, and I’ll give you a raise!”

Alisa motioned with her lips. “Ms. Hartwell is in your study. Hurry up and go.”

When Evander arrived at the study, he saw Calista sitting

at the desk, calculating something seriously.

She was so focused that she didn’t even hear someone knocking on the door.

Evander leaned lazily against the doorframe, quietly

watching her.

He knew she was working.

Holding a pen, its tip transformed into lines of complex data, swiftly landing on the paper.

At this moment, she seemed enveloped in a halo- diligent, hardworking, and full of charm.

This radiant, brilliant Calista was the Calista he once

knew.

After a long while, Calista finally finished her calculations. Looking up, she saw a devastatingly handsome face at the door.

Does this man never age?

Time has left no trace on his face, only making him more

masculine.

She hurriedly tidied the desk and asked, “Have you been waiting long?”

Evander walked in leisurely.
