“Who is he? Why did he invite you to dinner?” His voice was barely a whisper, yet through his suddenly tightened grip, Calista could feel the flames of jealousy pulsating within him.

Before Calista could respond, the nurse laughed and said, “Dr. Stafford, you are truly fortunate. Not only do you have a handsome and wealthy fiancé, but you also have so many admirers! Dr. Zillon is quite a catch too, with his good looks and gentle demeanor. Marty doctors and nurses have tried to ask him out, but he seems to only have eyes for you. It’s a pity you’re already engaged… But no worries, you’re technically still single until you’re married. Times have certainly changed, haven’t they?”

Fury blazed in the eyes of Kallum, like two clusters of flickering flames. He glared menacingly at Calista. In the darkness, a shiver ran through her body, and a sense of guilt washed over her for reasons unknown.

She responded loudly, “Um… don’t just make things up. He doesn’t have feelings for me…”

“Isn’t it obvious?” the nurse said with a hint of envy. “Dr. Zillon waits for you to have lunch together every day. Whenever he has a moment, he comes looking for you. He’s never been this proactive before.”

Calista was on the verge of tears. “Every time he comes, it’s because he has questions….”

“Come on, those are all just excuses. Dr. Zillon’s father is the director of City Hospital. His medical skills are top–notch in the entire city. He couldn’t possibly have so many questions.”

Kallum’s passionate thoughts were gradually consumed by rage. Who is this audacious fool, daring to cover my woman? It’s as if he has a death wish!

“Alright, alright… But I won’t dine with him tonight. Could you turn him down for me?” At this point, all Calista could do was sigh.

“Ah… You’re rejecting him, huh… Well, it figures. Your fiancé is so handsome. Of course you wouldn’t be interested in Dr. Zillon. Poor guy, I should go and comfort him!”

“Go… Just go…” Calista was practically begging the nurse to quickly leave, never to return.

Once the nurse had finally left and the door was closed, Kallum switched on the light, glaring at her.

“Tell me! Over these few days, who else has taken a liking to you?”

His voice grew more bitter with each word he spoke. “What’s this nonsense about being single as long as you’re not married? Let me tell you, you’re mine! You’ve been my fiancée since we were kids, and if you dare have thoughts of anyone else, I…”

After pausing mid–sentence for a long while, he finally added with a menacing tone. “Whoever you set your eyes on, I’ll cripple them. I’m not joking!”

Calista pressed her forehead, groaning in exhaustion, “I… Where would I find the time… I’m already struggling to manage even one, okay?

Kallumn was still not satisfied, demanding again, “So, when will you marry

me?”

Once we’re married, there probably wouldn’t be so many hopeless suitors anymore, right?

Calista’s eyes widened at how abruptly he changed topics. She stared at him, speechless.

“You’re already twenty, legally of age. If you’re not marrying me, then who are you planning to marry?” Kallum narrowed his eyes, posing the question with a threatening tone.

Calista paused for a moment, then said softly, “Being twenty is still very young, don’t you know? I haven’t even had the chance to enjoy my youth, and you’re already asking me to get married?”

“Enjoy your youth?” Kallum raised his voice upon being riled up, questioning, “Who else do you want to enjoy it with? Am I not enough for you?”

His expression was incredibly fierce. Glaring at her, he appeared as if he wanted to kill her.

Calista felt like bursting a vessel. “Anyway… let’s just talk about it later.

Kallum crossed his arms over his chest, looking at her with dissatisfaction. “What’s the point? You can’t escape your fate. In this life, there’s no other way out for you, other than marrying me.”

Calista gritted his teeth. “Every single day I delay it counts as a victory for me!”

The words left Kallum quite dissatisfied. He felt somewhat hurt and suddenly murmured in a low voice. “Do you really find me that repulsive…

The vibrancy in his eyes dimmed, as if his confidence and vitality had also faded away.

“Even now… you still can’t accept me, can you…

Upon seeing him like this, Calista instinctively uttered, “It’s not that…”

“Hmm?” Kallum glanced over instantly.

Calista’s expression was a bit complicated. Finally, he said with a tone of frustration, “I need a bit more time… Let me think it over…

“How much longer do you need?” Kallum moved closer to her, his expression intricate as he whispered, “Not a moment, a minute, or a second do I want to be apart from you. I love you. Do you still love me?”

Calista bit her lip, unsure of what to say.

Yet, before she could figure it out, the color drained from Kallum’s face, as if he had misunderstood something.

“Forget it, if you need time, I’ll give it to you. I just don’t want to hear anything from you that I don’t want to hear, okay?”

Calista slowly nodded, for some reason, he felt a pang of inexplicable guilt. Seeing his face wilt, Calista subconsciously spoke out.

“Um… Let’s have dinner together tonight…”

The moment the words left her lips, she wished she could take them back. However, seeing the sudden sparkle in Kallum’s eyes, she found it hard to do so.

“Great! I’ll go reserve us a spot right now, and I’ll pick you up this evening

After giving it some thought, Calista nodded in agreement.

Kallum turned around, his previously low spirits suddenly shifted, and a smile unexpectedly appeared at the corner of his mouth.

People online suggested that showing a bit of vulnerability to women could stir their sympathy, leading them to fall into the trap themselves.
