Chapter 422 Laughing At A Time Like This

Such unprincipled, weak, and soft words would have never been uttered by Kallum in his wildest dreams. However, because of her, everything seemed to flow naturally.

He carefully reached out and gently patted her shoulder.

“Could you stop crying, please? It’s breaking my heart to see you like this. If you’re upset, angry, or unhappy, just take it out on me…”

Calista had her head buried in the pillow when she heard him say that. Without a second thought, she stretched out her leg and gave him a swift kick.
