Her Vengeful Rebirth
Chapter 291 Her Heartbeat Stopped.
From despising me to looking forward to marrying me has only taken a year and a halfâ¦
âWhat are you standing there in a daze?â Kallum turned around, only to notice that Calista was rooted to the spot with her gaze slanted toward him. A slight smile played on his lips, his upright posture and his lifted eyebrows making it known that he was in high spirits.
âYouâre very happy?â Calista asked, quirking an eyebrow,
At her question, Kallum retracted his gaze quickly as if scalded before glaring at her with a hint of dissatisfaction. âAre you not happy?â
Calista was not one to put on a facade. She didnât feel unhappy, but she wasnât exactly thrilled either. Logically, it didnât make sense. A wish that hadnât been fulfilled in her previous life was suddenly realized in this one, so it boggled her mind that she wasnât profoundly excited.
However, Kallum was so clated that he overlooked that detail. In his eyes, Calista had always been a woman who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, so he reckoned she was merely feigning
calmness.
He walked over and took her hand before continuing forward. As they walked through the open corridor, the scent of peony wafted into their nostrils. The rounded moon cast a silvery light that illuminated Kallumâs profile and added a glitter to his eyes.
âIâm very happy,â he suddenly murmured.
Calista turned her head to look at him. At that same time, he also turned to look at her. In that instant, their eyes locked, and her heart inexplicably skipped a beat because she saw blazing affection in his eyes.
He gazed intently at Calista, his tone unwavering as he slowly repeated, âIâm genuinely happy. In the past, I saw marriage as a constraint, something I didnât want if I had the choice. But nowâ¦â
He chuckled lightly, baring his pearly whites as he lowered his gaze. There was an unexpected hint of innocence in his smile.
âBut now, thinking that itâs you Iâll be marrying. I canât help but wonder why the special date is months from now.
He actually find two months too long?
While Calista was slightly dazed, a long and slender finger gently lifted her chin, compelling her to face him headâon. As she looked up, Kallum flashed her a sidelong smile.
âTell me this. Do you also feel happy and excited?â
I must be willing, no? Thatâs why he can draw close to me so brazenly and even kiss me. Itâs just that for some reason, I havenât had such feelings for the time being
Thus, she nodded. âI suppose Iâm happy.â
Kallum burst into laughter. Watching Calista say so in all seriousness, he subconsciously felt that she was teasing him. Sheâs just too adorable!

Of course, he dared not be too bold in his action even though he yearned to pinch her overly serious face. For the first time in his life, he felt great contentinent.
âIf only that dâun virus didnât exist!â Kallum shook his head. âOtherwise, this moment would have been perfect!â
This time, Calista didnât hesitate. âIt wonât be long now. Trust me.â
As a thought came to her, she solemnly added, âPerhaps we might even have a double blessing then.â
Kallumâs gaze dimmed slightly, but he tenderly ruffled her hair.
âI heard from Old Mr. Yancey that youâre going to have a tough time ahead.â
Yet, Iâm unable to help at all.
That thought immediately creased Kallumâs brows.
He vowed. âAfter this matter is behind us, I wonât let you suffer even the slightest bit in the future!â
Suddenly, Calista chuckled softly, her eyes twinkling like stars on a clear night. âThen⦠thank you in advance.â
âThanks? Weâll be married.â
As expected, the following days were incredibly tough. Even though Calista had been through it once before and managed to avoid many avoidable mistakes, she still inevitably lost ten pounds.
She was never fat to begin with. After such weight loss, her eyes appeared larger and sharper. When in pain, especially, the way she stared at someone was as if she could tear them to shreds.
âCr*p! Her heartbeat stopped!â a female researcher cried out, stirring everyone into action.
âEpinephrine injection! Sheâs might not make it!â
Upon seeing Calistaâs pupils dilate and her body convulse, Bowen acted decisively. In an instant, the entire laboratory was filled with tension. That was already not the first time such an incident had occurred.
One might wonder how it felt to be in so much pain that one went into shock.
It was said that when someone was on the brink of death, they saw many things. Yet, each time Calista found herself facing death, she had only one thoughtânever give up.
That was a profound truth she came to understand in her previous life and this oneâas long as she didnât give up, she wouldnât die.
After more than a dozen nearâdeath experiences, Kallum had also found his footing. No longer did he feel as if it was the end of the world he did the first time. Instead, he stayed by her side, trusted, and encouraged her.
âCallie! Wake up!â
His voice trembled slightly, but he remained steadfast and repeatedly called out Calistaâs name in her ear.
âCalliel Wake up!â

He held onto her hands tightly as if he could anchor her to him and prevent her from leaving by doing so.
âWake up!â
After the epinephrine injection, Calistaâs eyes darted around even more rapidly. Moreover, she seemed to be dreaming.
