Chapter 311 Always Give Her The Very Best

“Let’s delay any further action for now. We’re in a sensitive period, and many people are watching us closely. Stirring up more trouble isn’t wise. Besides, she’s already been sentenced and will be out of the picture for quite some time. We can revisit this issue once the dust settles.”

“That sounds reasonable.” Kallum stroked his chin thoughtfully, then said, “You know, I can be quite ruthless, far from the kind and gentle persona you might imagine. Do you still like me then?”

He remembered a conversation where Calista had told him that she admired him most for his demeanor, which she likened to the bright morning sun. Although he never considered himself particularly bright or

sunny

Calista’s brow furrowed slightly as she spoke earnestly, “I like you because you embody a sense of freedom. You do whatever you want without caring about what others might think. It’s not because of your

kindness.

“So, it seems we truly are a match made in heaven!” Kallum concluded with a smile.

Calista paused, considering his words, then nodded with a returning smile, “Yes, we’re definitely a perfect match!”

“Given our understanding. I think it’s time for a special gift before we get married!” Kallum seized the moment to present his idea with enthusiasm. “Do you remember when I told you I wanted to build at research center just for you?”

Calista’s eyes sparkled with excitement. “You were serious about that?”

Kallum tapped her head playfully, chuckling softly, “When have I ever lied to you? The renovation is complete, and the weather is perfect today. Would you like to see the final result?”

“Well, what are we waiting for?”

With that, they left the Fairchild Manor, heading toward the newly established research center.

Since Calista had publicly committed to studying the K Virus, the absence of her own research center and lack of governmental oversight had caused public unease about potential safety risks.

But now, with the research center established, Calista’s professional stature was elevated once again. All of this was a testament to the honor that Kallum had bestowed upon her.

As the car headed toward the research center, for the first time, Calista showed deep emotion. Memories. of her past would often flash in front of her eyes whenever she was with Kallum.

Kallum then produced a scarf, gently covering her eyes with it, and whispered mysteriously, “For a little” surprise, close your eyes for a while. We’ll be there soon.”

Seeing Calista so serene and compliant, blindfolded, touched Kallum deeply. She had softened. significantly compared to when they first met, like a hedgehog that had retracted its spines, though she might not have noticed this change herself.

Noticing a faint smile on Calista’s lips, Kallum couldn’t help but return the smile. After blindfolding her, he leaned in and softly kissed her cloth–covered eyes. “Do you know? Anything I do is worth it just to see you

smile.”

Inside the vehicle, Calista’s face broke into a radiant smile. She lifted her head toward Kallum and let out a light chuckle. “That said, I suddenly replace myself really wanting to marry you.”

Being cherished in such a way felt truly wonderful. In the past, she had inadvertently caused trouble due to her own carelessness, potentially putting Kallum in a difficult position. Yet, he didn’t blame her; instead, he treated her even better than before. Marrying someone who loved her this deeply promised nothing but happiness.

Even though she couldn’t see him, Calista could sense the joy spark in Kallum’s eyes at her words.

If they weren’t in a car, Kallum would surely have spun her around in his arms in delight! It was the first time Calista had explicitly expressed her desire to marry him, and he felt so elated he thought he might

“I will give you the best of everything!” he declared, a bit too hastily, his fingers entwining tightly with hers, his smile beaming. “I promise to always give you the very best.”

“All right.”

The car seemed to glide effortlessly, speeding toward their destination with an almost magical lightness.

The sky was clear, and the air was filled with happiness, suggesting this should have been the happiest day before their wedding

Yet, as they stepped out of the car, Calista’s slight smile faded. Though she couldn’t see, her senses picked. up a familiar, chilling fragrance,

“Did you smell something?”

Kallum’s voice was cheerful as he spoke, and Calista turned toward him, though her eyes remained

covered.

The bodyguards maintained a discreet distance, surrounding the area which was nestled on three sides by a lake. This strategic location could serve as an impregnable fortress, having been intended by Kallum’s grandfather as a high–end nursing home. However, his passing had halted construction midway, leaving the project dormant until now, when it was renovated under Kallum’s directive.

With a smile, he teased her, “Take a guess; can you recognize this scent? It should be familiar to you.”

“Rosemary…” The wind carried the invigorating aroma of rosemary in full bloom through the cool autumn air. Without seeing, one could sense the presence of a vast expanse of blooming rosemary nearby, their purple blossoms swaying in the breeze.

“Exactly, it’s rosemary!” Kallum led Calista by the hand, continuing, “This is one of my family’s ancestral properties, perfectly secluded. My grandfather had planned to build a nursing home here, surrounded by rosemary for its therapeutic and medicinal qualities. It’s truly a spectacular sight.”

At that moment, Calista paused, lifting her head as if something caught her attention. It seemed she realized they had arrived at their destination.
