Her Rebirth of Retribution

Chapter 374 Never Intend To Give A Chance

"I always knew my Callie is quite formidable. She even knows how to use a needle."

With a swift move, Kallum managed to dislodge the silver needle from Calista's grasp, which landed on the bed. Nonchalantly, he tossed it onto the floor.

"But if you don't behave, I really won't be able to resist, Darling!"

A single, endearing utterance of 'darling' from him sent shivers down Calista's spine. Silently gritting her teeth, she finally acknowledged that she was no match for him.

With the only pin now lost, she clung to her bath towel, finally at a loss for what to do next.

"What exactly do you want?"

In her heart, she reassured herself over and over again, asserting that Kallum would surely not dare to touch her. She didn't need to... didn't need to worry.

Indeed, Kallum had no intention of laying a hand on her. All he wanted was to negotiate some benefits. However, Calista was rather difficult to deal with, leaving him no choice but to resort to half coercion, half persuasion. Could there be a more unfortunate fiancé than him?

Despite his sighs, Kallum was quick to undress.

Upon hearing the sound of Kallum undressing, Calista was nearly jolted off her feet.

"What are you planning to do?"

Seeing her attempt to flee, Kallum swiftly removed his clothes. With a quick grasp of her ankle, he pulled her back. She was once again toppled by him, held tightly in his embrace.

Once he was free of the cumbersome clothing, the contact of their bodies caused Kallum to sharply draw in a breath.
