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. “Callic, 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.
