Her Vengeful Rebirth ( Calista ) Novel

Chapter 514 Hold On For Me 

d

There would be countless people who would remember and thank her, but she couldn’t die. Her name couldn’t be on a memorial plaque. He couldn’t live without her. 

Calista typed again, seeming to pour out everything she had never said before. 

Calista told him: I used to be so weak, thinking that stepping back would open up a world of possibilities. But when others began to close in on me, I had already become accustomed to retreating. This habit was terrifying. It allowed the villains to seize me by the throat and even if I had the power, I wouldn’t resist. 

She continued: So, I feared many people. I feared my stepmother. Whenever she had a cold face, I would be scared to the core, feeling like I was still twelve years old, with her being a giant I couldn’t reach. I feared Quincy. Whenever she tattled, I would get in trouble. Whenever she wanted to bully me. I had no way to fight back. I also feared my father and the student at school who always looked down on me. And of course… I feared you. Whenever you frowned, my heart would race, wondering if I had done something wrong or if you disliked me even more. But even so, I couldn’t disappear from your sight. Loving you took all the courage I had in my previous life. Did you know that? 

Kallum replied: I know now. He sat down, surrounded by various noises, but he couldn’t hear any of them. He was lost in their world and asked: When I was pursuing you before, I felt you were so hard to get. I was different to you, but you wouldn’t yield. Now I know why. Because back then, I didn’t love you with all my effort. You were just throwing a little tantrum, right? 

Calista smiled as she typed: Right. 

Kallum chuckled, even though his expression looked more like crying than laughing. 

Calista told him: I was so foolish in my past life, so in this life, I’ve become a bit wiser. Fear? That’s unnecessary. Cowardice is unnecessary too. So are honesty and soft–heartedness. None of those bad habits are useful. When I was reborn, it felt like I filtered my life. I thought eliminating those unstable factors would make me invincible. And indeed, I did become invincible. Those who schemed against me didn’t get what they wanted. Ending up here tonight is just bad luck. Maybe my greatest enemy is fate itself? D*mn, it hurt so much when I fell, and it still hurts now. 

Kallum immediately became anxious. He asked: How are you feeling now? 

Calista sat in the cold muddy water. Her head was growing hotter, and her consciousness was fading. She traced the words on the screen, imagining his worried face. 

She replied: My situation isn’t good right now. My head hurts. I’m not sure if it’s from a lack of arygen or a fever, probably both. Half my body is soaked in muddy water. Trust me, being in water in this weather is the cruelest punishment. Soon, I’ll suffocate, freeze, or drown, and I have nowhere else to go. To kill me fate designed this unique method. How original. 

She seemed to have let go completely, shedding all restraints before death, revealing her true self. 

She narrated her sorrow with an optimistic touch, a hint of playfulness, all in an effort to make him remember her. 

Kallum felt suffocated by her words. He could imagine her current state: confined, cold, suffocating. And he couldn’t even hold her. It felt like being trapped in a living nightmare. 

He quickly begged: Can you hold on? For me, please! 

Calista parted her lips to pant. Her breathing became rapid, and her body grew numb..

Chapter 514 Hold On For Me 

She didn’t have much time left. 

She had to type quickly, each word written with her life. 

Finished 

Calista: If I die, don’t be sad. Being reborn was already a blessing. I avenged myself and became a star in the medical field. I am satisfied. I have achieved everything I wanted…. 

She let out a self–deprecating laugh. 

She continued: But I realized that in the face of death, what I’m most grateful for in my reincarnation is gaining your love. I never wanted to face this, but it’s clear now. Being loved by you is my greatest satisfaction, more than revenge or Jame. I seem to have always forgotten to tell you, or maybe, I never wanted to admit it. I love you. From my past life to this life. I have never been able to change my heart. 

At that moment, tears finally fell from Kallum’s eyes. 

He was at a loss on how to respond to her declaration, “I love you.” He had longed to hear it countless times but never under such circumstances, and never this way. 

He typed quickly: This doesn’t count. I want you to tell me you love me in person. I won’t accept this expression, 

He sent the message but received no response. Panic set in as he quickly sent another message. 

Kallum: Talk to me, Callie, talk to me. 

He wondered if her phone had died or if she had lost consciousness. In his panic, he called her. The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered. At that moment, terror engulfed him. 

Kallum: Callie. Talk to me, please? Just type a word, or hang up the call, anything to let me know you’re there…. I beg 

you. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
