Her Rebirth of Retribution

Chapter 148 Jealous Kallum

Upon seeing her gaze, Calista couldn't help but soften her demeanor.

"Take your time, what is it that you want to say?"

Calista had already braced herself for a lecture. She knew that after what she had just done, it wouldn't be long before the school would call her in for a talk.

Unexpectedly, Tabitha suddenly exclaimed, "You're so suave!"

""Hmm?" Calista was a bit slow to react.

"You were so suave! You actually managed to infuriate someone to the point of spitting blood!" Tabitha mustered up the courage to voice out, her tone filled with immense satisfaction!

"I knew Mirabelle was no good. She even tried to frame you last time, so this apology surely isn't sincere! But you, you're so suave! Well done!"

Suddenly affirmed in such a manner, Calista found it somewhat awkward and at a loss of how to respond.

Yet, Tabitha approached cautiously and said, "Are you worried? Relax! We are friends! I will help you! Did you know? My brother is quite wealthy now. If Mirabelle dares to bully you in the future, I will surely stand up for you!"

Her newly-made friend grew bolder with each word, and in the end, she even held Calista's arms.

However, due to Tabitha's petite stature, holding hands with Calista gave Calista a feeling akin to being a man, which was quite unfamiliar. Regardless, she didn't push her away.

After all, she was her friend.
