ed, the Fairchild family would never accept me again. And due to personal grudges, Iâd rather Kallum spend his entire life unable to find you. So, I was the only one who wouldnât disclose your whereabouts to themâ¦â
Suddenly, Mirabelle burst into laughter like a madman. âYou must be feeling so alone and helpless right now, with not a soul to vent to! Ha! The fact that youâre calling an enemy who temporarily poses no threat to you just goes to show you have no friends!â
Mirabelleâs voice was oddly tinged with excitement as she exclaimed, âSo, when youâre suffering, your only recourse is to provoke your enemies and draw strength from them? How pitiful you are, no! How pathetic you truly are!â
Calistaâs face grew colder by the moment. Her hand, tightly clutching her phone, trembled. It seemed as though she was on the verge of smashing it to the ground any second.
I have no friends? No one to vent to? Am I so afraid of sadness that I could only draw strength from her enemies during tough times? No⦠No! If I were to drop my phone, wouldnât that just confirm Mirabelleâs ridiculous conjecture?
âHave you⦠lost your mind?â Suppressing the tremor in her voice, Calista asked with a cold yet composed tone, âHow could you entertain such a ludicrous thought?â
However, Mirabelle had already affirmed her suspicions. She laughed so hard that she was practically falling apart; even tears started streaming down her face. âHaha! Funny, isnât it? It is indeed hilarious. The thought of you, with no one to share your pain, relying on attacking others and boastingâthese childish acts, just to hide your fragility, it fills me with pity. You really are pitiful!â
Frustrated and upset, Calista abruptly hung up the phone and stood up, knocking her breakfast off the table in the process. She didnât bother about the mess she had made. Frantically, she walked onto the balcony to get some fresh air.
Yet, when she saw the drop of over ten floors below, she surprisingly felt an urge to leap off and end it all. Fortunately, she managed to brace herself against the railing in time, suppressing the sudden surge of madness within her.
Iâm pitiful and pathetic? I have billions in my bank account! Iâm nationally renowned for my genius in medicine. All my enemies are firmly under my heel! Moreover, Iâm still young, not even twenty! Everyone should be green with envy, how could I possibly be pitiful?
