Chapter 148 Jealous Kallum

Upon seeing her gaze, Calista couldn’t help but soften her demeanor.

“Take your time, what is it that you want to say?”

Calista had already braced herself for a lecture. She knew that after what she had just done, it wouldn’t be long before the school would call her in for a talk.

Unexpectedly, Tabitha suddenly exclaimed, “You’re so suavel”

“Hmm?” Calista was a bit slow to react.

“You were so suave! You actually managed to infuriate someone to the point of spitting blood!” Tabitha mustered up the courage to voice out, her tone filled with immense satisfaction!

“I knew Mirabelle was no good. She even tried to frame you last time, so this apology surely isn’t sincere! But you, you’re so suave! Well done!”

Suddenly affirmed in such a manner, Calista found it somewhat awkward and at a loss of how to respond.

Yet. Tabitha approached cautiously and said, “Are you worried? Relax! We are friends! I will help you! Did you know? My brother is quite wealthy now. If Mirabelle dares to bully you in the future, I will surely stand up for you!

Her newly–made friend grew bolder with each word, and in the end, she even held Calista’s arms.

However, due to Tabitha’s petite stature, holding hands with Calista gave Calista a feeling akin to being a man, which was quite unfamiliar. Regardless, she didn’t push her away.

After all, she was her friend.

Calista was somewhat dazed to replace out that someone out there actually wanted to be friends with her.

What she didn’t realize was that there was indeed a large group of people who were taken aback by her previous nonchalant remarks that were so infuriating it could make one spit blood! The whole afternoon. was filled with people discussing this matter.

When school ended, Calista was still feeling a bit out of sorts. How should she put it? To her, Tabitha was just a bit too noisy….

Moreover, whenever she spoke, she would often fix her gaze on Calista’s face, which, for the first time, made her feel a bit embarrassed.

“Come over to my place! You’re so good at your studies, you could tutor me! I really like you, would it be okay if you came over for dinner?”

Calista wore an expression of discomfort. She wasn’t one for social visits, and she always felt a bit uneasy when interacting with strangers/

However, Calista underestimated Tabitha’s ability to act charmingly. In the end, she had no choice but to

call Kallum.

Chapter 148 Jealous Kallum

Upon seeing it was Calista, Kallum quirked his lips and made a pausing gesture.

“What’s wrong?”

At this hour, Callie should have been almost done with her class, why would she call?

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Calista said, “I might be coming home a little late tonight.”

Kallum was taken aback, the smile on his face vanished.

Calista’s life was so monotonous that it was almost as if she was living on a straight line, punctually doing everything on schedule. This was the first time she had ever mentioned coming home late.

What happened?” Although Kallum desperately wanted Calista to come back immediately, he knew he couldn’t do so. Calista also needed her personal space. It was just that he found it hard to accept that there would be one more thing in her world, which would inevitably divert her attention from him.

“It’s not a big deal,” Calista said nonchalantly. “I made a friend and went to her house to hang out.”

“Friend?” Kallum couldn’t help but raise his voice.

“Mmm…” At that moment, a cheerful female voice came from across the room. “Callie, aren’t you done yet? Is it your dad? Want me to talk to him?”

Being regarded as a father, Kallum felt rather stifled. However, learning that it was a girl, his mood. improved significantly. Still, he wasn’t happy. Callie had a friend now. Although this was perfectly normal, he couldn’t help but feel annoyed. He despised anyone who attempted to monopolize her.

Kallum’s brows were tightly furrowed, but in the end, he spoke in a surprisingly light–hearted tone.

“All right, enjoy yourself. When you’re ready to come back, give me a call. I’ll arrange for someone to pick you up. Also, Ryder is there too. I’ve asked him to accompany you.”

“No need, it’s a bit over the top to bring someone along. I’ll probably… just come back after dinner, so don’t worry!”

“Okay.”

It seemed as though Kallum wanted to say something more, but Calista had already ended the call.

Kallum held his phone, lost in thought. Ultimately, he decided to suppress his intense desire to have her all to himself, allowing Calista to have her own personal space.

After all, she was still so young, she should make more friends. Before this, Callie was too withdrawn, having a friend would be good… right?

No!

Kallum furrowed his brows! He suppressed a thought that was on the verge of bursting forth, hastily ending the meeting. Fortunately, everything that needed to be said had been said. He had more important

matters to attend to!

“Ryder.””

Kallum made a call. “Who approached Callie? What heir agenda?”

Ryder suddenly felt the urge to wipe away sweat, even though he had smartly prepped himself for this beforehand.

In the depths of Kallum’s mind, numerous schemes and plots were constantly at play. When dealing with outsiders, Kallum never hesitated to assume the worst of their intentions, as a precaution against any potential deceit or treachery. After all, time was money, and he simply didn’t have the luxury to engage in games with others.

“Get me a copy of the Fisher family’s information, then head over and wait at their place. Callie is still injured, if she’s in there for more than two hours, storm in with the team!”
