Her Rebirth of Retribution

Chapter 67 You Have To Pay The Price For Trying To Network

Calista hadn't replied, but Quintus was shocked by how thick-skinned her younger sister was. He frowned and said unhappily, "Mr. Kallum did not invite anyone else."

Quincy looked pitifully at Benedict, and seeing that his younger daughter wanted to go, he put in a word for her quickly, "Callie, bring Quincy along. She's still recovering from her shock, and it'll be good for her to get some fresh air."

He did not know that Quincy had any other motives, and thought she just wanted to go out for a walk. In the past, whenever Wanda invited Calista over and Quincy wanted to tag along, Calista never rejected her, so he thought Calista wouldn't reject taking Quincy this time either, Calista laughed and looked meaningfully at Quincy and asked, "I'm going to be all lovey dovey with your brother-in-law, why do you want to follow us?"

Her pointed words made the tension in the house very strange, but before Quincy could explain herself, Calista laughed in an oddly evil manner.

"You used to be like that too - whenever Mrs. Fairchild asked me over to the Fairchilds', you would insist on tagging along. What is your motive? My fiancé doesn't have any brothers, you know."

"Callie!" Benedict was taken aback by this reaction. He threw a glance at Quintus who was busy trying to mind his own business, and continued unhappily, "Why are you saying such things! Quincy just wants to accompany you."

Yelena chipped in too, "That's right, Callie! You don't really like to talk much, so if Quincy goes she could help to fill up the awkward silence, otherwise other people might think we have no manners..."

Fill up the awkward silence? Didn't Quincy steal the limelight every time, and only finally shut up when Calista was pushed into a corner?

Quincy quickly nodded her head along with her parents, but she looked guilty because the real reason why she wanted to go was that she liked Kallum and that was also why she wanted to ruin Calista's reputation so desperately - if he called off the engagement to Calista, she could be next in line!

Even if she wasn't, at least she would be rid of one rival.

Calista walked down the last step and shook her head as she smiled at Quincy. "And what if I don't want you to go?"

Quincy immediately looked at Benedict to set this straight for her.

Calista put up her hand as if to stop everything. "Dad, what would people think if my younger sister constantly tagged along when I have a date with my fiancé? Even if Quincy doesn't have any ill intentions, how would others see this? That you want him to choose from either of your daughters? Or that both of us might as well share one husband?"

the same time Calista had been too direct with him as well and had embarrassed him. But since Quintus was around, he did not
