Chapter 477 You Need To Vent

Calista watched him lower his proud head as he carefully tied her shoelaces. For some inexplicable reason, she let out a sigh.
The past was like a dream, interwoven with reality. Can I truly love someone the way I used to?
After tying her shoelaces, Kallum stood up. Under her slightly bewildered gaze, he leaned in and gently kissed her on the check. His long eyelashes hung low, fluttering slightly.
“I love you, Callie. Remember to think of me, okay?”
His words seemed to cast a spell on Calista. All day long, his voice seemed to echo in her ears.
Why is this happening? After all, we had even shared the most intimate of moments! I had given him my all, and yet, this subtle barrier still persists. What am I supposed to do about it?
In a state of splitting headache, all she desired was to sleep. Perhaps, upon waking again, she might discover that all of this was but a dream.
How could Kallum possibly like me? He had clearly despised me all his life! Perhaps this is just a dream I yearned for but can never attain.
The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. Her mental state had been unstable to begin with. The reason why this instability hadn’t erupted before was because she had treated her rebirth as a game of revenge. But recently, she was forced to think more and more. Most of the time, she was fine, but when she wasn’t, she was far from it. Ads by PubFuture
“Callie, if you’re not feeling well, why don’t you go home and rest?” Ambrose’s voice reached her, jolting Calista back to reality. She hadn’t gone to the hospital today, instead, she had come to see Ambrose.
After the prior shock, Ambrose’s health had been quite poor. Only recently did it seem to show some signs of improvement.
“I’m sorry for coming to see you so late.”
Calista guiltily addressed Ambrose, yet Ambrose gave Jarrett a peculiar glance. It was because this was already the third time Calista had repeated these words, her mind seeming to wander aimlessly all day, for reasons unknown.
Jarrett subtly signaled to his younger brother, then turned to Calista and said, “Let’s go; I’ll walk you out You look like you could use some rest.
Calista also realized that something was amiss with herself, and suddenly felt an urge to go back and see

While they were in the car, Jarrett/couldn’t help but ask, “What’s bothering you so much?”
Calista slightly furrowed her brows, she had already realized what was happening. From the moment she willingly gave herself to him last night, or perhaps since the last banquet where she actively provided Kallum with an antidote, something felt off. Today, Kallum’s words, filled with affection and anticipation, had become the catalyst that ignited everything.

Jarrett lit a cigarette, taking a deep drag. His narrow eyes were half–closed, presenting an image of profound solitude.
“Is it because of Kallum?”
“Yeah.” Calista didn’t hide anything, because she considered Jarrett as her friend.
“Do you like him?”
Calista was taken aback.

Jarrett chuckled lightly as he continued, “It seems you’ve fallen for him. This is perfect since he likes you too. If the feelings are mutual, what is there to worry about?” Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Calista gazed out the car window at the scenery receding in the rear view, falling silent for a moment before she finally said in a hushed tone, “Liking him makes me feel as though I am betraying myself.”
“Huh?” Jarrett, who was driving, raised an eyebrow in curiosity before asking with a smile, “So, would you feel like you’re betraying yourself if it turns out that you like me instead?”
Calista shook her head. Ads by PubFuture
“Then the issue isn’t with you, it’s with him,” Jarrett said, his gaze fixed on the road ahead, his voice a quiet
murmur.
Calista fell silent again because what Jarrett said wasn’t quite right.
Seeing her reaction, Jarrett asked again, “So, there’s a rift between you two, huh? What do you think he could do to bridge this gap?”
“If only he could have died once,” Calista replied, her gaze fixated on a spot outside the window.
Her words startled Jarrett so much that he brought the car to an abrupt halt. Calista, safely secured by her seatbelt, was unharmed but looked at him with clear dissatisfaction. “If we were in the city, your actions could have caused a pile–up,” she said.
“What did you just say?” Jarrett stared at her, disbelief evident in his eyes behind his glasses. “You want Kallum dead? Why? He hasn’t seemed to have done anything to wrong you, has he? Did he cheat on you?”
Squinting his eyes, Calista’s expression turned icy cold. “Don’t worry; I don’t wish for his death. Weren’t you asking about how to bridge the gap?”
Jarrett found his heart pounding increasingly, suddenly feeling a bit of sympathy for his love rival. Falling for a woman like Calista was definitely like a psychological roller coaster, where one could potentially crash at any moment.
After giving it some thought, he said seriously, “I feel like you’ve been bottling up a lot of things inside.
You need to vent.”
“How would I vent?” Calista blinked at him, looking for more clarification.
Swinging the steering wheel around, Jarrett said, “Let me take you somewhere.”
An hour later, at the race track in the mountainous area, Jarrett tossed over a helmet, which Calista caught with an outstretched hand.

“Is this how you vent?” she asked with a playful glint in her eyes.

“Yup!” Jarrett fondly patted a strangely shaped motorcycle as he continued, “This is Dodge Tomahawk, professional racing motorcycle. Come on, I’ll take you for a ride.”
Calista hesitated. “This is quite risky. I don’t think it’s necessary for me to put my life at stake for your
amusement.”
Jarrett couldn’t help but shoot her a glare. At that moment, he had removed his glasses, making his face appear even more devilishly enticing.
