Chapter 357 Taking Advantage

Calista clenched her fists, gritting her teeth as she glared at him. "Don't play with things like that?"

Kallum was forced to step back by her gaze. She chuckled softly. "From that moment, I suddenly understood. I, who had already fallen into the mud, my affection for you, to you, was nothing more than a stain. No, I should say that my very existence is a stain!" "No, it's not!" Kallum stared at her intently, vehemently denying her claims over and over again.

"You're not. You're not! I'm sorry, Callie. I won't ask anymore. I won't ask anymore. I'm sorry..."

"You asked why my eyes have turned out this way?"

Calista's emotions gradually cooled down. She gave a bitter smile and said, "Because when the last shred of hope was shattered, I cried for three days until I couldn't see anymore. Then, I hastily sought treatment. After it got better, my eyes turned into what they are now. Do they look good? You've mentioned several times that my eyes are beautiful. Are they really-"

Before she could utter her last word, her lips were silenced as Kallum lifted her face and kissed her passionately.

As though hot tears had fallen on her face, he disregarded the extensive ink stains on her body, pulling her tightly into his embrace, fearing that he would lose her if he loosened his grip for even a moment.

Suddenly, the entire amusement park was plunged into darkness. At the stroke of midnight, the park was buzzing with excitement. Taking advantage of the darkness, someone resentfully hurled their last packet of paint toward the two people wrapped in an embrace, kissing. It hurt a lot. Kallum blocked all the sneak attacks, only then realizing that getting hit really did hurt!

A stunning array of fireworks exploded overhead as Kallum released her lips. He looked at her, speaking so gently, as if he was afraid to startle her.

"Will you marry me? If you despise me, you can stay by my side to punish me! However you choose to punish me, as long as you stay... Callie, please marry me... I beg you!"
