“Exactly…” Wanda hurriedly said, “So don’t bother your dad right now. Our family business is really taking off lately, and he’s been busy expanding into overseas markets. He’s exhausted every day.”
Kallum found himself slightly puzzled, his brows furrowing in confusion. However, not wanting to trouble her husband was consistent with Wanda’s behavior all along, so he decided not to dwell on it much.
“Then, Callie, could you please help her out?”
Calista nodded, her expression stiff.
Wanda’s eyes sparkled before she said, “Callie, why don’t you sleep with me tonight? Silas mentioned he won’t be home for a few days. If you’re with me, I’ll feel more at ease.”
Calista gave a bitter smile, but before she could utter a word, Kallum was already nodding. “After you’ve helped Mom with her energy flow, why don’t you keep her company and rest? Things will be better when Dad returns in a few days.”
Calista laughed and shook her head. “All right then.”
Kallum showed a look of approval, feeling that this was quite good. While other families often had some mother–in–law and daughter–in–law issues, their household was exceptionally harmonious!
His father had always spoken highly of Calista, urging him to cherish her. His mother, needless to say, treated Calista as her own daughter. As for him, the woman was his sweetheart, his precious gem. Their family was filled with such harmony!
Wanda quickly said, “Then help me back to my room so Callie can perform acupuncture on me.”
The housekeeper promptly took action, assisting Wanda back to her room.
Before Calista could follow them inside, she was abruptly pulled into a corner by Kallum. He kissed her fervently twice, with such intensity that her lips swelled before he finally let her go!
Even through his clothes, Calista could feel his arousal. Once again, a peculiar expression crossed her face. “You really spiked the milk, didn’t you?” she asked.
Otherwise, why would she feel like she was about to melt into a puddle when he held her like this, yearning for his rougher handling?
Kallum wore an expression of helplessness, which then abruptly turned fierce, “This is all your fault! I’m going to be miserable tonight… But the medicine is harmless, so it’s not a big deal… Callie… Let me hold you. I feel so hot!”
*Serves you right…” Calista did not resist his embrace, taking in the refreshing masculine scent that emanated from him. As her body grew increasingly warm, she couldn’t help but turn her head to lightly lick the side of his neck near his earlobe. This simple action nearly made Kallum shudder from head to toe, almost driving him insane!
In an instant, the temperature in their corner rose sharply. Kallum held her face and began biting and kissing her fervently with a force that seemed as though he wanted to devour her.
Just when Calista thought she was about to lose control, Kallum suddenly pushed her away. He firmly

He hung his head, panting, as if it took all his willpower to keep his desires in check. Luckily, he had only consumed half a glass of that milk. If he had drunk it all, combined with his longing for Calista, he might have thrown caution to the wind and taken her right then and theref
Calista was feeling rather helpless. She was privy to the truth, yet she couldn’t voice it. She knew if she did, Kallum would undoubtedly vent his anger on Wanda. Despite Wanda’s occasionally erratic behavior, at the end of the day, her intentions were always for their best interest.
Moreover, if she revealed the truth, it was certain that Kallum would be even more furious with her. In order to punish her, he might devise some cunning tactics to torment her. It was crucial for her to protect herself.
“You better go…” Kallum dared not look at Calista, afraid that with one more glance, he wouldn’t let her leave.
Voice hoarse, he added. “Thanks for doing this. If Mom has any issues, let me know immediately, okay?”
“Okay.” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Leaning against the wall, Calista nodded obediently.
“Then, I’ll be going.”
“Yeah.”
“Are
you… going to let go?” How was she supposed to leave if he held her so tightly?
“Hmm? All right…” Reluctantly, Kallum let her go.
Could there be a more heartbroken fiancé than him? He had just missed another golden opportunity!
“I’m really going. For some reason, Calista unexpectedly felt a wave of embarrassment seeing the usually energetic Kallum in such a dispirited state.
Kallum mustered up his energy and said, “You go ahead. I can handle things on my own!”
“You can handle it yourself?” Calista thought of something inappropriate and chuckled. “All right, good night!”
Kallum was somewhat taken aback, as he rarely saw Calista smiling so radiantly. However, the thought of the upcoming unbearable night instantly filled him with dread.
Could it be that he had had it too easy all his life, and thus, fate sent Calista to torment him? When would he finally be able to stand tall and take control?
Calista headed to Wanda’s room. By then, everyone had left. Given that Calista was administering acupuncture and Wanda was a woman, it wasn’t appropriate for others to stay and watch.
“How did it go?” Wanda asked with a hint of smugness when she saw only Calista entering the room. “Didn’t I tell you I could get Kallum to behave? Did he do anything to you just now?
Seeing Calista’s lips all red, Wanda couldn’t help but chuckle mischievously. “Oh, look at you! Your lips are all swollen from the kiss, aren’t they? Seems like I’m being the villain today!”
It was more than just playing the villain. If Wanda knew the truth, she would likely be filled with regret.

A Calista mulled over it, she found herself caught between embarrassment and amusement. She was the only one privy to the whole truth, yet she chose to remain silent.
“Go wash your face quickly. It’s quite terrifying to look at,” Calista reminded with a smile.
