Benedict looked puzzled and quickly shook his head. “Why would I move in with my son–in–law? I have a
place to stay.”
Calista also found it strange and intervened, “It’s fine to send someone to the Stafford residence instead…” She glanced at the uneasy Benedict and shook her head helplessly. “My father is just looking for someone to rely on.”
When Calista spoke, Benedict didn’t dare to refute. Although he was flourishing in the company now because Kallum had given him a very effective company to manage. When it came to emotions, he was easily swayed. Finding someone else would make him content.
After resolving matters here, Kallum was ready to take Calista away. Obviously, he didn’t even want to delay dinner time because it was too dangerous outside. Someone could come and snatch Calista away anytime and anywhere, which was truly annoying.
Calista inexplicably felt a bit sorry for Benedict, but Benedict generously waved them off. He didn’t have much to do at the company now, and he had money to spend. Going out for dinner, playing cards, or night fishing with a few friends was quite enjoyable. Although he was still young, he had already started to enjoy life.
On the other side, Wanda was arguing with Shaun.
“It’s impossible. I know Mr. Kallum’s health very well. There is absolutely no problem or lingering effects,” Shaun said firmly.
Wanda’s preparations were obviously thorough. “I asked Wilbur, and sometimes psychological factors can also cause obstacles in that area. And it may not be pathological, it could also be congenital…” Ads by PubFuture
As soon as she mentioned this, Wanda showed a look of despair. She used to often tell Kallum that he was a man with a fiancée and should not have any premarital relations with other women. Although Kallum was very annoyed every time, according to reliable sources, Kallum had not touched any other woman before Calista. At first, she thought her persuasion had worked. Now thinking back, it was terrifying.
Hearing Wanda say this, Shaun also showed a skeptical expression, but Kallum didn’t seem to be like that.
“In any case, the earlier it’s discovered, the earlier it can be treated. I used to care too little about Kallum. I thought he could handle everything well. I, as his mother, have been too negligent.”
“Don’t say that. I’m the family doctor, and I…” He had done a full–body examination before, but he didn’t specifically check that area.
“In any case, when Kallum comes back, help him check it out and focus on that area…”
“Okay, okay, I can do that.”
After they reached an agreement, Kallum and Calista happened to return. Because they had called in advance, Wanda hadn’t eaten yet and decided to wait for them. The food was still hot.
It had to be said that after returning to Fairchild Manor, Calista felt very comfortable. Perhaps subconsciously, she already considered Fairchild Manor her own home, which was the result of the joint

her more.
“It’s okay, I have nothing to do. I hardly feel hungry every day anyway. It’s more interesting to dine with you guys.”
Calista gently smiled, her eyes filled with emotion. However, her smile froze when she saw the dishes laid out in front of her.
Smoked salmon, avocado chicken salad, grilled oysters, pomegranate braised lamb shanks.
“Aunt Wanda, what… what stew is this?” Calista reached out to stir a bowl of sticky stuff and had a bad feeling in her heart.
“Oh, that? That’s a ginseng bull testicle stew.”
Calista put down the bowl with a grimace and pointed to another bowl of something that looked like cooked alligator tail and asked, “What are those chunks inside?”
Wanda said, “That’s alligator and shrimp stew. It’s good for nourishing one’s vitality.”
Eating these could cause heartburn, won’t they? Ads by PubFuture
Calista wisely refrained from asking further questions and chose what she could eat.
Kallum also noticed something was off. “Mom, what’s with all this food? Haven’t we always preferred lighter meals at home?”
The Fairchild family paid attention to health, and they rarely ate these things. Even if they did, it would not be prepared in this manner.
Faced with Kallum’s suspicious gaze, Wanda felt a little guilty. “It’s me. I feel too weak and need to nourish my body. You both are busy outside every day, and you need to nourish your bodies too. Let’s eat.”
Kallum didn’t suspect anything. After all, he wouldn’t say no to nourishing food. When he was eating, he insisted that Calista eat more of the alligator and shrimp stew.
The dish was extremely nutritious. Calista wanted to refuse it, but she was afraid that if she did, Kallum might make her drink ginseng bull testicle stew, so she reluctantly accepted it.
With an impassive face, she inwardly berated herself in frustration. This time, she had truly done herself in. Yet she couldn’t voice it out. If Kallum found out she had intentionally misled LWanda, the consequences would be rather terrifying.
Hence, Calista silently finished the entire plate of food.
Kallum intentionally avoided the ginseng bull testicle stew. His temper was already fiery, and he had nowhere to vent his energy every day. If he had another bowl of that stew, he might feel uncomfortable all night. He was already wary of that discomfort now, so he decided to exercise for an hour after dinner.
Seeing Kallum’s lack of enthusiasm, Wanda became anxious. She personally filled a bowl and handed it over to him, “I made this specially for you. You’ve been sick before, and I didn’t give you any nourishing stuff. Take this opportunity to eat more. I’ve been cooking all afternoon.”
