Chapter 6 How To Live With Enemies

His large frame came close and his deep-set eyes were filled with distrust, his rage suffocating her.

Every time he was angry, even his father didn't want to argue with him. In her previous life, Calista was even more fearful than his father, but now she was not afraid at all.

"At that time you made sure nobody knew that you slept with me in order to spite me, so only both of us know this happened. Just now they were trying to rape me, and these bruises are from trying to resist them, but they didn't manage to do anything to me. If you don't believe me, you can check!"

Kallum thought he heard wrongly. The calmer Calista was, the angrier he became.

"The extent you would go in order to make me sleep with you! So that's what you meant by inspecting your body? DREAM! ON!" He let go of Calista and opened the door to leave, but Calista offered in a distant voice, "Didn't you want to call off the engagement all this time? As long as you say that I wasn't defiled, I'll call off the engagement first thing tomorrow."

Kallum stopped in his tracks and snorted.

"The moment I walk back downstairs and tell everyone your body is full of love bites, your reputation will hit rock bottom, and this d*mned engagement will be considered invalid."

He had no intention of doing so, however - insulting a woman was beneath him. But when he saw how Calista was determined to cut ties with him, and even blackmailed him with this engagement, he didn't want to lose this fight!

But Calista took his word for it, and said boldly, "Fine, then everybody will know that I cheated on you with not just one, but two men! It'll make a good show!"

Upon hearing these words, Kallum spun around violently, his steely gaze enough to swallow her whole!

Calista knew that this would not be a threat to him since she wasn't officially married to him yet.

So after these words she suddenly closed her mouth, and her straight back somehow looked slightly weak in the light.

"Look...we grew up together, and I've already offered to back out of this engagement, won't you help me this once? You don't have to lie because I'm innocent in the first place, and if you don't believe me then you can check! If you don't check then I'll take it that you believe me! Unless you insist on ruining the reputation of this woman who once loved you so deeply?"
