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.

After receiving a kick, Kallum let out a dramatic scream, swiftly “falling” to the ground.

Upon hearing a muffled sound, Calista subtly turned her head to look. A snow–white pillow concealed most of his face, leaving only a reddened, gleaming eye peering out at an angle. It looked both pitiful and wary at the same time.

Kallum had initially planned to feign pain, but when he saw her looking over, he couldn’t resist. Like a ravenous wolf lunging for its prey, he leaped from the ground onto the bed.

“What are you looking at? Afraid I’ll get hurt? Has my little darling finally learned to care for others?”

Calista, with a huff, hid her face again and exclaimed, “Why didn’t you die from the fall?”

Kallum gave a shameless grin. “How could I possibly die? If I did, wouldn’t you be left a widow? I couldn’t bear to do that to you….
