Chapter 167 A Year Later

"Loves me?" Calista couldn't help but chuckle. Seeing the discomfort on Benedict's face, she patted his shoulder and said, "Don't force yourself if you can't say it, Dad. I have to tell you that the Langley family already considers me an enemy. It's time for you to face reality.' The color drained from Benedict's face. He brushed off Calista's hand and opened his mouth before closing it again. He couldn't utter a word in rebuttal.

"All right, I'm off to class now." Calista glanced at the time and left with a smile.

As Benedict watched Calista's retreating figure, he let out a long sigh. He wasn't clueless. He just yearned for the past harmony.

There and then, he thought perhaps it was a good decision for Quincy to go abroad.

The roar of a plane taking off filled the air as Quincy departed, carrying with her Yelena's admonitions and her resentment toward Calista.

In school, Calista seemed to sense something, her gaze drifting toward the sky. A cold smirk suddenly appeared on her face. When she reincarnated, her only thought had been to end things swiftly, to eliminate the person she despised the most. At that moment, however, she had suddenly become composed.

Calista was engaged in conversation with someone nearby, her demeanor even colder and more resolute than a year ago. However, the hostile aura that used to surround her had significantly diminished. Mainly because, over the past year, all the annoying individuals had vanished from her life, allowing her to fully immerse herself in her research. In addition, her dealings with the Fairchild family had kept her mind intensely focused on conquering K Virus. She rarely reflected on her unpleasant past experiences. As a result, she was even more radiant and unstoppable than before.
