Chapter 136 I Will Only Dance With Calista
Wanda had previously arranged for someone else to open the dance floor with Calista out of
for Kallumâs health. However, seeing their son showing interest now, they were naturally more than happy to facilitate it.
At that moment, the music in the hall changed. Kallum bent forward slightly. Amidst the envious glances of many women, he extended a gentlemanly invitation gesture toward Calista.
Itâs happening! Weâve never seen Mr. Kallum dance before!
Calista felt immense pressure under the scrutiny of numerous gazes from every direction. Yet, Kallum said with a smile, âBeautiful lady, I wonder if I might have the honorâ¦
Before he could finish his sentence, suddenly, a mood killer appeared.
âKal! Are you feeling better now?â
Mirabelle appeared in a white, puffy dress, a vision of innocent beauty. Her long, brown curly hair framing her almondâshaped eyes made them appear charming and enticing.
The gazes of the surrounding people subtly shifted as soon as she began to speak. The former fiancée and childhood sweetheart on the same stage is intriguing. People had always whispered about Mr. Kallumâs complex feelings for Mirabelle. Indeed, sheâs the epitome of innocent beauty, but compared with Calista, the difference is clear as day! If Kallum hadnât chosen Calista and gotten together with Mirabelle instead, his aesthetic taste would certainly be questionable.
Kallumâs expression shifted subtly, and he slowly straightened his posture. âDo you need something?â
His aloof demeanor and the tone he just used with Mirabelle were worlds apart. Anyone around them. could tell that Mirabelle had fallen out of favor.
Mirabelle was visibly in disbelief. I canât believe Kallum is so indifferent at our next meeting. He only allowed me to take care of him up close previously. How did things change so drastically in such a short period? It mustâve been Calista intentionally sowing up discord!
Mirabelle glanced at Calista. Suppressing the resentment in her eyes, she smiled and said, âYou look stunning tonight, Callie. However, since youâre Kalâs former fiancée, it wouldnât be appropriate for you to share the opening dance with him. After all, your statuses are different now. Itâs such a pity, as I was looking forward to seeing you and Kal open the dance floor together!â
Calista raised an eyebrow. Looking forward?
Without hesitation, she grabbed Kallumâs hand. âSince someoneâs looking forward to it, letâs not dampen. their spirits. Letâs do the opening dance!â
At that moment, the hall had cleared to form a dance floor, waiting for the eveningâs main characters to commence the dance. Upon hearing Calistaâs words, the surrounding people began to cheer, encircling the
two of them.
Mirabelleâs eyes widened, and she turned green.

So, she quickly forced a laugh, saying, âCallie, youâve misunderstood. I meant that considering youâre now practically half a daughter of the Fairchild family, and given your previous relationship with Kal, it wouldnât be appropriate for you two to dance together. So, how about this? You should dance with my
cousin instead!â
man
As she spoke, she pushed a man forward.
Calista scoffed, thinking she would be out of her mind to give the Yost family a chance to steal the limelight.
Before she could even speak, Kallumâs reaction was even more intense than hers.
He gave the man a cool, piercing glance before leading Calista off the dance floor, declaring assertively. âIn this world. Iâll only dance with Callicl
Mirabelle was taken aback. What does Kallum mean by that?
She quickly took a few steps to catch up, exclaiming, âKal! Youâ¦â
Kallum halted in his tracks, his thick eyebrows furrowing deeply.
âAlso, who gave you permission to call me like that?â
He shot Mirabelle a displeased glance. âYou think youâre worthy?â
Mirabelleâs face instantly turned ashen. She could even hear mocking laughter behind her.
A wave of relief washed over Calista after hearing his words.
She peeked out from behind Kallum and added, âAnother thing, donât call me Callie. Weâre not close.â
Someone burst out laughing, believing Mirabelle would be too embarrassed to show her face for some
time.
Disregarding whatever expression Mirabelle had, the two of them entered hand in hand, dancing the opening number.
After giving Mirabelle a harsh lesson, Calista was in a great mood, her lips quirked up high, reflecting her inner joy.
Only then did Kallum realize how simple it was to please Calista. It looks like Mirabelle can indeed cause trouble a bit longerâ¦
Mirabelle had already run off in tears. If she didnât leave then, she would have had to endure even more humiliating remarks.
How could this happen? How could Kallum treat me like this? Even though he was aloof in the past, he was always accommodating toward me. Why did things change? Could he have forgotten that I âsavedâ him back then? Or could he have already discovered that Calista was the one who saved him in his childhood?
The thought startled Mirabelle, causing her to feel a little apprehensive about looking at the bustling crowd behind her. A chill began to creep up her spine.

provide any evidence to prove that she was the one who did it. After all, who would believe that a nineâyearâold girl could rescue a thirteenâyearâold boy from the water? Hence, Calista mustâve done something! She mustâve sowed some discord. Otherwise, Mr. Kallum wouldnât treat me like this! That dâined woman!
Just then, a figure from the crowd started walking toward her.
