Chapter 357 Taking Advantage

Calista clenched her fists, gritting her teeth as she glared at him.

“Don’t play with things like that?”

Kallum was forced to step back by her gaze. She chuckled softly. “From that moment, I suddenly understood. I, who had already fallen into the mud, my affection for you, to you, was nothing more than a stain. No, I should say that my very existence is a stain!”

“No, it’s not!” Kallum stared at her intently, vehemently denying her claims over and over again.

“You’re not. You’re not! I’m sorry. Callie. I won’t ask anymore. I won’t ask anymore. I’m sorry…”

“You asked why my eyes have turned out this way?”

Calista’s emotions gradually cooled down. She gave a bitter smile and said, “Because when the last shred of hope was shattered, I cried for three days until I couldn’t see anymore. Then, I hastily sought treatment. After it got better, my eyes turned into what they are now. Do they look good? You’ve mentioned several times that my eyes are beautiful. Are they really-

Before she could utter her last word, her lips were silenced as Kallum lifted her face and kissed her passionately.

As though hot tears had fallen on her face, he disregarded the extensive ink stains on her body, pulling her tight into his embrace, fearing that he would lose her if he loosened his grip for even a moment.

Suddenly, the entire amusement park was plunged into darkness. At the stroke of midnight, the park was buzzing with excitement. Taking advantage of the darkness, someone resentfully hurled their last packet of paint toward the two people wrapped in an embrace, kissing. It hurt a lot. Kallum blocked all the sneak attacks, only then realizing that getting hit really did hurt!

A stunning array of fireworks exploded overhead as Kallum released her lips. He looked at her, speaking so gently, as if he was afraid to startle her.

“Will you marry me? If you despise me, you can stay by my side to punish me! However you choose to punish me, as long as you stay… Callie, please marry me… I beg you?”

He had completely abandoned his pride, so what did it matter if he begged? All he wanted was for her to marry him.

Calista lifted her head, revealing an enchantingly beautiful smile reminiscent of a jester’s. It was as if fireworks were blooming in her eyes, a sight too breathtaking to behold.

“Before, I was always indecisive, unsure of how to treat you, but now, I know,”

She tiptoed, whispering softly into his ear, her lips moving slowly.

“You weren’t actually wrong, but I must still punish you. So, this is your punishment… I’ll be your younger sister and have you dote on me for a lifetime. How does that sound?”

Under the astonished gaze of Kallum, Calista, like a child who had successfully pulled off a prank, leaped

solution! It satisfies your ‘not leaving‘ and also prevents me from feeling ‘disgusted. There really isn’t a better solution than this!”

Kallum’s heart pounded wildly. This wasn’t what he wanted. He desired more than just “not leaving.” His wants went beyond that. He yearned for… he yearned for so much more!

“Kallum, are you dissatisfied with my final decision?” Calista asked, her laughter innocent and harmless. Her delicate face had a very playful vibe.

Kallum’s lips moved, but he couldn’t utter a single word… Calista was emotionally unstable, and he had once again touched a raw nerve. If he continued speaking, the consequences would only become more intense than the current situation.

He knew that these past few days, Calista had been hesitant toward him. He had tried his best to prove himself, even pleading for her to stay. But it wasn’t for this outcome… No, it wasn’t!

“My dear brother, why aren’t you speaking? Are you unhappy with my choice?”

Calista took a step closer, flashing a smile as she winked.

She was now in possession of billions in assets, her character was extreme and she acted as she pleased. There was nothing that could hold her back. In reality, she had no need to play the role of his sister. She could live more freely. So, if Kallum was unwilling to agree, then so be it. They could part ways without any hard feelings.

Kallum knew in his heart what was happening and, for the same reason, he too found himself backed against a cliff.

Asking him to say yes was akin to enduring the ceaseless scraping of a steel knife across his heart. Those few words felt as heavy as a thousand pounds. He simply couldn’t utter them.

A cold glint surfaced in Calista’s eyes, a hint of defeat evident. With a dismissive wave of her hand, she spoke in a disappointed tone. “It seems you’re not willing, then…”

“No…” Kallum’s hand, resting by his side, gradually clenched. He knew he had no other choice.

“L… agree!”

With a smile, Calista revealed her pearly white teeth, yet she continued to press on. “Well… If you’re going to act like a brother, then you should behave like one. From now on, you can’t just casually hold me, kiss me, or sleep with me, okay?”

She touched her lips lightly. “Can you do that?”

At that moment, Kallum felt humiliated. When she first showed him her defensive prickles, he felt so lost, so angry. Yet, he was helpless…

“Are you really going to do this? Even if I beg you…”

“If begging would make any difference, then I beg of you, to eradicate all the hatred in my heart.” Calista pointed at her chest, articulating each word with a smile.

Driven to desperation by the one he loved, cornered with no way out, Kallum was in agony. At the same
