Chapter 129 A Harmonious Scene

Upon entering the gates of the Fairchild Manor, Calista headed straight to an annex, which served as Kallum's recuperation spot, where all unauthorized personnel were strictly prohibited from approaching.

Kallum was engrossed in reviewing documents. Since his health was stable and there was no immediate threat to his life, he took over most of the company's work, hoping to alleviate some of his father's stress instead of idling around every day. Seeing Calista enter, he put down the documents and instantly pieced things together upon noticing her grim expression. Something must've happened at school. Plus, since she's showing me her displeasure, it might have something to do with me. "What's wrong?" he asked.

Calista sat down on the couch by the bed, ignoring him.

"Oh no, who upset my baby?" he cooed.

Calista shot him a glare. "Can you not be so cheesy?"

She was so grossed out that she thought the old Kallum was better. Although he was arrogant, he was quiet. Even though he hated her, he was at least not this clingy.

"I didn't say anything wrong." Kallum leaned forward, a smile on his face as he reached out to ruffle her hair. "You're my sister, doesn't that make you my little baby?"

Even though he didn't want to acknowledge her as his sister, this title was the most suitable for their current situation. It served as a constant reminder for them to keep their feelings in check while providing a legitimate relationship status that allowed them to stay close to each other.

Before he was certain he would be able to survive, he would always restrain himself and strive to be a responsible older brother.

Calista looked at him with disgust, her expression indifferent. "If anyone upset me, it's you."
