âCalista Stafford!â In a surge of anger, Jason attempted to lunge at Calistaâs throat, his hands aiming for a
violent grasp.
However, his movement was swiftly intercepted by Kallum, who had been cautiously observing from the sidelines. Kallum grabbed Jasonâs wrist in a firm grip, and with a quick twist, dislocated it, causing Jasonâs arm to hang limply as he screamed in agony.
Calista, standing up with a composed smile, said, âAll right, letâs not break his other leg. Iâve released my frustration with those two hits. Letâs not cause him any further suffering
Letâs not cause him any further suffering?
Jason clenched his jaw, his face flushing red with the pain and humiliation, unable to retaliate. Meanwhile, Titus exhaled a sigh of relief, gesturing for the housekeepers to bring a stretcher to carry Jason away.
âMr. Kallum, Ms. Stafford,â Titus addressed them with a newfound respect that had been absent when he first arrived. The mixture of Kallumâs assertive pressure and Calistaâs calculated measures had earned his gratitude, far beyond what he expected from young individuals.
âSince Ms. Stafford has graciously decided to spare this brat further punishment, thatâs one less concern for me.â Titus spoke earnestly to Kallum, his tone now ingratiating. âI hope we can put this matter behind us, and it wonât affect the relationship between our families,â
Reluctantly, Kallum replied, âFine, weâll let it slide this time, but keep a close eye on him. Should there be a next time, it wonât merely involve broken bones.â
âAbsolutely, there wonât be a next time, there definitely wonât be!â Titus assured, eager to end the ordeal.
After the incident, Calista relaxed onto Kallumâs lap, a hint of pride in her voice as if boasting about her cunning. âDo you know? I just used a little medical trick on Jason. He was truly in pain, but the more he suffered, the happier I felt!â
Kallum, after hearing Jasonâs cries, felt his anger chip away ever so slightly. He tapped Calistaâs head solemnly. âLetâs leave that behind us now. But tell me, how could you just jump down like that day? And how did you know one of the walls was fake?â
Calista wore a hesitant look. âBecause⦠that room was originally Harveyâs study. When it was transformed into a secret room, I guessed that one of the walls was a facade covering the floorâtoâceiling windows with a soundproof wall.â
Kallumâs violet eyes narrowed, his voice carrying a hint of intrigue. âWhen did you visit Harveyâs mansion. in Horington?â
The atmosphere chilled slightly. Calista, typically forthright, chose to remain silent rather than continue the deception.
âDo you⦠think Iâm a bit cruel?â Calista suddenly asked, her voice serious and her expression stern.
âDonât people like you usually prefer women who are simple and kind? Itâs less complicated and more reassuring, isnât it?â She pointed at herself, her eyes flashing a surprisingly sharp glint. âL⦠Iâve killed people. Arenât you afraid? I might even be somewhat unstable mentally. How else could I remain indifferent after taking a life

Kallum couldnât suppress a chuckle. For some reason, hearing Calista seriously claim she was a terrifying person made him laugh.
âHuh?â Calista glared at him, slightly annoyed, prompting Kallum to quickly appease her.
âAll right, all right⦠You are indeed a terrifying person,â Kallumâs lips still curled in amusement. âBut Iâm different from others. I actually find intimidating people quite fascinating; donât you think so too?â
Calista scrutinized him, her expression cold and evaluative.
âLook at you,â Kallum continued, laughing warmly, his voice filled with indulgence, âYou didnât hesitate to find me in Lostaria, saving my life amid gunfire. Even when you knew I was infected with a dangerous virus, you chose to stay by my side and promised to save me.â
He added, âWhen everyone else doubted me, when being associated with me became risky, you consistently defended me. It was then I realized how incredibly fortunate I am to be protected by someone like youâ¦â
His tone softened, his gaze tender yet tinged with a hint of sadness, âYou contracted the K Virus because of me. I failed to protect you. You truly are a terrifying person, too harsh on yourself. And me? I canât help but be drawn to this fearsome aspect of you. How could I resist when you appeared before me so compellingly, forcing me to fall in love with you?â
Calista felt his gaze intensifying, a fluttering sensation stirring within her, realizing she quite liked this feeling.
âIâm not very good at expressing love,â Kallum added with another chuckle, lightening the mood once more as he looked at her, his eyes sparkling again. âAll you need to know is that every word Iâve said is
true,â
Calista pursed her lips. âI think youâre already quite skilled at sweet talk.â
Kallum burst into laughter, then his expression turned serious. âBy the way, what are you planning to do with Quincy? Now that sheâs in jail, things have become easier.â
Calista narrowed her eyes, clearly intrigued by the question, but ultimately, she just shook her head.
