Chapter 77 Standing On Trial

By the time Calista reached home, three hours had already passed. She was full of energy after that long nap, so she rejected Kalhum’s candlelight dinner offer and went straight home.

Quintus saw that Kallum dare not move for several hours just so that Calista could sleep comfortably, and his shoulders must be aching by now, so he couldn’t help but say, “Ms. Stafford is a bit too…” He really wanted to say that she was too heartless in pushing Kallum aside after she had taken what she needed from

Going there was as good as punishing himself! No way was he going there!

Kallum saw that he was silent, and he smiled a little.

He felt that Calista seemed gentler towards him, and that wasn’t just his own imagination! He had a feeling that he was going to win her over soon!

…and that’s why it’s often said that men’s intuition isn’t accurate.

When Calista got home, she noticed that the atmosphere in the house was very heavy. She hid away her good mood after getting a good rest earlier, smiling coldly as she walked in. “What’s going on?

She saw that none of the servants were around, but Benedict, Yelena and Quincy were all seated in the living room waiting for her, and she could guess what this was about.
