Her Rebirth of Retribution

Kallum was taken aback, immediately refuting, "That's impossible!"

At that moment, Quintus interrupted with a tremble in his voice. "Mr. Kallum, we're here."

Calista turned her head and sure enough, she was greeted by an expansive sea of flowers. Pointing toward them, she said, "You knew all along that everything here would hurt me, yet you still forced me to come. Isn't that causing harm?"

Kallum furrowed his brows. "I just want you to confront it, running away won't solve anything!"

"What if the outcome is that we become enemies?" Suddenly, Calista laughed. "Let me ask you, if going in there again would drive me mad, would you still force me to go?"

This time, it was Kallum's turn to remain silent for a long while. "I will!"

He suddenly spoke, catching Calista off guard. Yet, he spoke with an unwavering tone, emphasizing each word. "Because you're not one to lose your sanity. You're not that fragile. After all, you're the one who can drive me to madness. How could you possibly be defeated by something imaginary?"

Calista was taken aback, about to say something, when Kallum silenced her with a kiss.

This time, he exerted a great deal of strength, pinning Calista down onto the seat and kissing her with a fervor close to madness. He had already wanted to do this back at Wyatt's house. The days without her had nearly driven him to insanity. However, Calista resisted it.

She struggled vehemently, but every move she made was countered by him. When she tried to kick him away, Kallum simply held down her legs. When she attempted to push him away, he seized both her hands above her head. In the end, all Calista could do was to try to bite him, but Kallum used his other hand to lock her jaw, preventing her from clenching her teeth. She was forced to keep her mouth open. Powerless to resist his kiss, she was being drawn by him into a whirlwind of madness.

They hadn't shared a kiss this intense in a long time. This kiss was charged with pent-up frustration, yet it was incredibly tender, as if they were facing the end of the world.

After their kiss, Kallum looked down at her, his handsome face filled with a mixture of bitterness and self-mockery.

"Can you feel it?" He pointed to his own heart. "I am the one who's going crazy!"

Calista gasped for breath, seemingly scorched by his intense gaze. She quickly pushed him away and without looking back, she exited the car.

"Come in with me!"

She hadn't walked far when Kallum caught her hand. At that moment, Calista felt a wave of anxiety and confusion. She looked at him, almost pleadingly. It was the first time she had ever felt fear. "Kallum! Kallum, can we not go in, please?"

"No, you must confront it! Unless you tell me, what is it that you're afraid of!"

Left with no choice, Calista took a step forward, wrapping her arms around his waist to stop him. "Once you know, there's no going back? Would you still want to know?"

"I need to know, Calista, I need to know everything about you!"

Kallum wore a stern expression, leaning in close to her ear. Each word he uttered was firm and unwavering.

"I've had enough of guessing! If you know me, then you should realize that I despise things beyond my control. I need to know the truth. That's right, I should have been told the truth a long time ago!" Had he known everything earlier, none of this would have happened.

Calista's body subtly trembled, her voice dropping to a whisper. "Is the truth really that important?"

"Of course it is! Everything concerning you is important..."

After Kallum finished speaking, he firmly grabbed Calista's hand and led her inside, leaving everyone else behind. They all watched the pair with concern.

Kallum had been under too much

pressure these past few days,

causing him to be excessively

irritable and now, overly aggrel

Going in like this... might not yield the outcome he desires.

The moment Calista stepped into the field of rosemary flowers, she abruptly ceased her struggle. All her fears, apprehensions, sense of helplessness, and unease seemed to have been left outside. However, Kallum didn't pay much heed to these changes. His only desire was to lead her into the building. If Calista understood his intentions, she would have been touched, not afraid. He was convinced that once Calista stepped inside, no matter what she feared, she wouldn't resist him anymore.

The two of them hurriedly traversed through the huge field, with Calista being led along. Her head was bowed, and she was lost in her own thoughts, unsure of what was running through her mind.

The fortress-like structure still stood tall. Its grand architecture had been built by Kallum's subordinates. However, the living quarters were personally overseen by him, and he believed that Calista would definitely love it.

Stepping into the place once again, Calista felt a chill at the very first step she took. The cold seemed to have awakened something, causing her body to shudder.

Her eyes widened as numerous long-buried details resurfaced in her mind, playing out like a movie. They were so vivid. It was as if they had happened just yesterday.

The last time she set foot on these steps, she was being dragged in by someone.

Involuntarily, Calista's gaze fell onto the stone pillar outside the door. She had once cfung onto the pillar in desperation, all in a bid to delay the inevitable because she knew once she entered, there would be na turning back. Just as expected, she never did come out in the end.

Kallum oddly tugged at her, but Calista suddenly broke free from his grip.

"If you want me to go in, then let me walk in there myself."

Her sudden return to calmness unsettled Kallum a bit, but having come this far, he wasn't the type to back down.

He gave Calista a complex look. "Alright, let's go in."

Then, he led the way by opening the front door.
