After delivering his icy words, Kallum headed toward Calista. Wyatt wanted to intervene, but Quintus and the others stopped him in his tracks,
âKallum, donât provoke her!â Wyatt was held back by a few people, leaving no choice but to shout, âSheâs emotionally unstable. She even thought of jumping off the balcony this morning!â
This wasnât him scaremongering at all but a genuine hunch. Calistaâs previously erratic emotions had made this clear.
Upon hearing that Calista was contemplating suicide, Kallumâs breath hitched. He quickly moved to her side, yet he dared not touch her.
âCallic?â
He gently touched her shoulder, his tone gradually relaxing. âIâm here. Iâve come to get you. Regardless of whatever Iâve done wrong, can we go home first?â
âI can go back if you want.â
Only then did Calista lift her head, gazing steadily at him.
âHowever, I have one request.â
A sudden sense of unease sprouted in Kallumâs heart. He asked anxiously, âWhat do you want me to do?â
Calista said very calmly. âI want to call off the wedding.â
Kallum was taken aback.
âPut simply, I no longer wish to marry you.
Calistaâs calm words dealt Kallum a devastating blow, leaving him breathless and in pain. He tried his best to control his emotions as he demanded, âWhy?â

Chapter 321 No Longer Wish To Marry You
Thinking back to the fortressâlike research institute, the sea of rosemary flowers, the three unbearable years that were a living hell, and the nightmareâlike memories of her reincarnation, a hostile glint gradually surfaced in Calistaâs eyes,
âBecause, I donât have feelings for you anymore.â
This statement was an absolute blow to Kallum. How is it possible to just not like someone because they say so?
There was no way that Kallum would believe that all those years were a lie.
âCome home with me!â
Kallum seized Calistaâs hand, his gentleness toward her abruptly replaced by a sense of assertiveness.
At that moment, a surge of determination erupted within Calista as she stood her ground against him. âIâll only go back if you agree to cancel the wedding!â
âIn your dreams!â
Kallum tightened his grip on her hand, a sudden flash of anger surfacing in his eyes. The wedding is just a week away, Calista! Are you screwing with me?â
âIf you insist on an answer, then yes!â
