Her Rebirth of Retribution

Chapter 156 Dealing With Snakes

That's why it was crucial to prevent Calista from causing any havoc.

She fixed her gaze on Calista, her voice laced with a veiled threat. "Callie, how about we head back first? You haven't been home in a while, don't you miss it?" Benedict let out a sigh. Despite his disdain for his younger daughter's actions, he understood that the family's reputation was paramount while they were in public. "Could you please go back, Callie? Consider it as a favor to your father, will you?" said Benedict.

Emmett looked confused, while Quincy was secretly thrilled in her heart.

Calista shook her head and smiled bitterly. Oh, these people! If I hadn't been reborn, I'd have definitely taken the blame for the sake of my family's reputation. But if I do it once, there will be more. Quincy never knows when to stop. But now... "I'm not leaving," Calista stated, her tone firm.

Benedict was taken aback, while Yelena and Quincy felt a sense of unease and confusion stirring within them.

Calista then addressed Emmett openly.

"Professor Lockwood, I'll just lay it out there. I suspect that Quincy has stolen my work. That's why I insisted on sitting in, to see if I was wrong, or if a certain someone could really be that shameless!"

"I didn't!" yelled Quincy.

Her heart fluttered in panic. How can Calista just blurt this out in front of my mentor? Doesn't she understand not to air one's dirty laundry in public?

Benedict's face turned sour, his expression grave. "Callie!" he rebuked. "What nonsense are you spouting? Leave now!"

Yelena quickly interjected, "I know you and Quincy have been having some disagreements recently, but this matter concerns Quincy's entire life! How could you speak so recklessly?"
