Her Rebirth of Retribution

Chapter 149 A Kiss To Alleviate The Pain

After giving it some thought, he decided it wouldn't be appropriate. "I'll come over later as well," he said.

Ryder was taken aback. Kallum was leaving the house? All because his wife made a female friend?

After stepping into the Fisher family home, Calista felt uneasy due to the overwhelming enthusiasm of the family. Unlike other affluent households, their home had hardly any servants. The family was harmonious and joyous, an image of perfect harmony at first glance. Sensing their goodwill, Calista gradually relaxed, although her face betrayed no sign of it. Tabitha's parents quietly nodded in approval, impressed by Calista's poise and refinement. It was clear to them that she was a good child.

After casually asking a few questions, they began their meal. Tabitha's siblings weren't home, so there weren't many people around the dining table.

Tabitha didn't know who Calista was, but her parents certainly did. Calista had just become the goddaughter of the Fairchild family, and it seemed like she was quite favored by Kallum. She appeared to be knowledgeable and well-mannered, someone worth befriending. So, Tabitha's mother said to Tabitha with a smile, "Tabitha, you should really get along well with Callie in the future. Look at her, she's the same age as you and her grades are so good. You should take a leaf out of her book, understand?" Whenever the topic of studying came up, Tabitha's face fell. She muttered, "Got it..."

Then she turned to Calista and said, "Callie, you must visit more often. My son isn't here today, but I can introduce you to him some other time. He was also very interested in pursuing a career in medical research back then. I'm sure you two will find a lot to talk about..." This blatant matchmaking attempt left Calista feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Upon seeing this, the man hastily tugged at his wife. "What nonsense are you spouting? You always do this, you've scared Tabitha's friend. Tabitha will definitely blame you for this!"

Tabitha wore a baffled expression as she lifted her head. "What did mom just say?"

Quickly, Calista said, "I'll definitely be visiting frequently in the future, I hope it won't be too much of a bother."

"No, not at all, you are very much welcome here..."

In short, the meal was thoroughly enjoyed by all present.

research was bound to encounter some twists and turns. Upon hearing this, Kallum responded in a deep voice, "It's fine, but what about you? Won't it be too strenuous to give me acupuncture every three days? You've been injured again." Calista shook her head.
