Her Vengeful Rebirth ( Calista ) Novel
Chapter 125

Chapter 125 Work Together 

“Do you really think I would marry you? I have to admit you once made me waver, but not anymore!” she said with determination. 

Astonished, Kallum said in a smug and exaggerated tone, “So you did consider marrying me? I knew it. I’m irresistibly charming!” 

D*mn you, Kallum Fairchild! 

Calista shot him a glare and conjured up the most venomous statement possible. “You might die any day now, so watch your mouth! It’s easy for you to say so, but have you ever considered the possibility that I might take you seriously and be heartbroken when you die?” 

Her words finally silenced Kallum. He recalled that his initial desire to distance himself from her was to prevent her from getting hurt. So, in their future interactions, he should exercise restraint to avoid the slight chance that she might fall for him and end up heartbrok 

As silence ensued, a wave of regret washed over Calista. Kallum could’ve survived He missed that opportunity because of me. He could’ve been one of the lucky few if he had received that injection. What was the point of me saying that? To make myself feel better? But there’s no way I’ll apologize! He’ll have to deal with that himself. 

Chuckling. Kallum asked, “Callie, are you feeling regretful?” 

Calista widened her eyes and snorted. “Stop flattering yourself.” 

A sharp glint flashed in Kallum’s eyes. “Don’t worry. Even though I’ve contracted the K Virus, I’m still Kallum. I’m not that fragile. You can tell me anything.” 

So what if I’m dying? I don’t want to part with her, yet I’ve never known fear. No matter what, I’m still me. 

Dazzled by his bravery, she turned to escape the situation but found herself grabbed by Kallum, who drew her into his embrace. 

“What are you doing?” she exclaimed, glaring at him in irritation. Even on the brink of death, he’s so unbearable that I can’t even feel sorry for him! 

Kallum stifled a laugh. “Sick people are very vulnerable inside. So, from now on, I’ll stop saying sweet nothings, and you don’t have to fall for me. Just treat me as your patient. My only request is that you let me hug you every now and then. Let’s take romance off the table and keep our emotions in check, okay?” 

Calista knew she had frightened him. He’s genuinely afraid I’d fall for him and end up heartbroken if he dies. Such confidence! 

She wrinkled her nose and said, “All right. Let’s not talk about anything else before your fate is sealed. From now on, I’ll focus on saving you, and you’ll focus on cooperating. Let’s work together!” 

Kallum grinned, flashing his white teeth at her. “Great! Let’s work together.” 

He then extended his pinky finger at Calista, who stared back at him in confusion. 

“Let’s make a pinky promise” declared Kallum, putting what he learned from the romance guide he had

She intended to leave, but Kallum hugged her tightly and refused to let go. “You can’t leave without making a pinky promise!” 

“Kallum, are you out of your mind?!” 

“Yes.” Kallum responded without hesitation, still holding out his pinky. His hands were attractive, and a mischievous grin played on his striking face. “I’m the patient here. Can’t you play along, doctor?” 

Fimph! I don’t want to waste time arguing with him. I’m just playing along to shut him up, not because I have a soft spot for him! 

With that in mind, she impatiently extended her hand and hooked fingers with Kallurn. Wanting to withdraw her hand after that half–hearted gesture, she was surprised when Kallum held on tightly to her pinky. The smile on his face gradually faded, and persistence glimmered in his eyes. 

It was like he could make her stay with her forever as long as their fingers were intertwined. 

However, a thought crossed his mind and he let go, a smile once again gracing his face. “Then it’s settled! Doctor, I’m in your hands from now on.” 

In the blink of an eye, seven days flew by, and as expected, Kallum was still alive and well. Calista had gained both Wanda and Silas‘ complete trust. The former didn’t know how to thank her while the latter saw her in a new light, candidly telling her that she could have anything she wanted as long as she could heal Kallum. 

Taking advantage of the situation, Calista requested the Fairchilds to construct a biosafety level four research center in the manor. Afterward, Kallum could move in and be isolated from everyone else, preventing any unforeseen incidents. 

Then, Calista strained to recall what those people said during the years when she acted as a human test subject, which allowed her to roughly figure out the research method. She even provided her blood to the experts who had been recruited by the Fairchild family. 

Calista admitted that her blood might prove useful due to the medicinal baths she had taken and her practice of martial arts from a young age, which had given her a strong resistance to toxins. 

With the powerful Fairchild family supporting her, those experts naturally dared not doubt her one bit. They thanked her for her blood donation and proceeded to conduct their research according to her guidance. 

Calista felt a lot more confident with their help. 

Given that it was Kallum who had fallen ill, the Fairchild family had essentially recruited the world’s leading virus experts to join forces in researching and combating the disease. 

They were far superior to those who had used Calista as a test subject in her previous life. In this life, she not only had the right research direction from the start, but also had many people assisting her. She was confident they would conquer the virus that had posed the greatest challenge to the world.
