Her Rebirth of Retribution

The boy was engrossed in a conversation with someone he admired when he suddenly noticed a man approaching aggressively from behind Calista. It felt as though he had been doused with cold water. Under the man's gaze, he found himself at a loss for words. "What's wrong?" Before Calista could turn around, she was embraced from behind by a pair of arms.

"Darling, is this your classmate?" Kallum flashed a toothy grin, which was so unnerving that it made the guy's skin crawl.

Darling?

Calista inexplicably felt as if she was caught in the act of adultery. Moreover, with the arm around her waist tightening, she didn't want to make a scene in front of others.

"Why are you here?" Calista was very surprised.

Seeing this scene, the boy turned pale. Was this man actually Calista's boyfriend?

It made sense that someone as remarkable as Calista had a boyfriend. Even though the man standing next to her seemed older, there was no denying they looked perfect together.

"I... I'm Calista's classmate. Nice to meet you..." the guy stuttered under Kallum's seemingly easygoing but actually stern gaze. Finally, he sighed and added, "I won't bother you then, Calista... see you around." Calista nodded stiffly. "Yeah, see you around."

After the others left, Calista struggled to get free from Kallum's grip. "What are you doing? Who are you calling 'Darling?' You're supposed to be my brother."

Kallum smirked as he stared at her face. He found the sight of her being annoyed extremely cute.

"I didn't say anything wrong, did I? My dear sister, let's go home. It's getting late. Aren't you hungry?"

It was then that Calista realized that she truly was no match for him when it came to being shameless!

After dinner, as they were getting ready for bed, Kallum once again pushed the boundaries!

"Where's the other bed?" Calista raised an eyebrow, wondering why there was only one bed when there used to be two.

Kallum said earnestly, "The room felt a bit cramped with two beds, so I had one of them moved out."

Calista stared numbly at the room before her. There could be seven or eight more beds, and it wouldn't be crowded! How could he be so shameless?

She protested coldly, "Then I won't share a room with you anymore. You should let Old Mr. Yancey take the night shift!"

Kallum calmly responded, "He's too old for that. It's not convenient."

"What about Professor Zeller? He's quite young!" Calista suggested again.

Kallum frowned. "All those experts can't wait to keep their distance from me. Why are you insisting on making things difficult?"

So there really isn't a suitable person?

Calista felt frustrated.

Kallum said timely, "I won't do anything to you. Plus, this bed is so big. You can roll around and still not touch me."

Kallum's voice dropped as he continued, "Or is it that you actually dislike me? Or are you afraid that I might do something to harm you?" Speechless, Calista was on the verge of arguing her case when she noticed Kallum's hand trembling and his lips turning pale.

Every night, the virus within his body

would become active, causing his pain to double from what he felt during the day. That was why she had arranged to work the night shifts because there might be sudden emergencies at night

Without exceptional me skills, it

would be impossible to handle those situations. However, the others were reluctant to take on that duty, so she ended up taking all the night shifts.

For so long, Kallum had always worn a smile when facing her, so she often overlooked his pain.

But thinking back to her past life, there were often nights when she couldn't sleep because of the pain. During those times, she would cradle a doll as tall as a person in her arms as if that could bring some comfort. Seeing Calista suddenly fall silent, Kallum became somewhat wary because he didn't expect her to give in so easily. He had even thought of his next move and was just waiting for Calista to make her move.

To his surprise, Calista walked over and started drying her hair by the bed.

"You... You're okay with this?" For the first time, Kallum was dumbfounded.

Calista frowned. "Well, aren't you going to come and blow-dry my hair for me?"

Beaming, Kallum said, "All right, right away!"

For the next few days, Calista lived rather comfortably.

Her happiest moment was probably when Mirabelle was sent to prison!

Given the Yost family's sincere apology and their longstanding acquaintance, Wanda softened a bit. In the end, Mirabelle was sentenced to a year and two months in prison for intentionally causing minor injuries to someone. Upon learning this, Calista was completely indifferent. Mirabelle was a public figure, and once she was sent to prison, she would regret it enough. Even if she were to be released in the future, she wouldn't be a threat. She would be nothing more than a clown that could be crushed easily.

Subsequently, Benedict paid Calista

a visit at school, encouraging her to do well in her exams. Upon learning that Kallum had assigned Gunner to assist Benedict, Calista felt a great sense of relief. Although Yelena's presence was somewhat irritating, she was too preoccupied recently to deal with them. However should

they dare to cross her, she was ready to fight back!

Calista thought: Moreover, Mirabelle's fate should serve as a warning to them for a while.

Soon, the results of the written exams were released, and Calista was undoubtedly the top in the entire department. Moreover, she scored better in the subjects she minored in than those who majored in them. For a moment, Calista was unparalleled in her glory, and everyone was discussing this terrifyingly intelligent genius. Their tones were filled with nothing but envy.

However, Professor Lawson gave

her a call at that moment. "Callie,

why haven't you submitted your research assignment yet? You need to hurry up. The deadline is

tomorrow. If it's not submitted by then it will be marked as zero. No matter how well you did in the written exam, you won't be able to get into the combined master's and doctoral program. You need to hurry up!"
