Her Vengeful Rebirth ( Calista ) Novel Chapter 77

Chapter 77 Standing On Trial 
By the time Calista reached home, three hours had already passed. She was full of energy after that long nap, so she rejected Kalhum’s candlelight dinner offer and went straight home. 
Quintus saw that Kallum dare not move for several hours just so that Calista could sleep comfortably, and his shoulders must be aching by now, so he couldn’t help but say, “Ms. Stafford is a bit too…” He really wanted to say that she was too heartless in pushing Kallum aside after she had taken what she needed from 
him…. 
Even though he had not said out his actual thoughts, his eyes had betrayed how he really felt. 
Kallum had taken a day off work and there must be a huge pile of work waiting for him now who was it for? All the bodyguard cars and his car had gone round a quarter of Horington – who was that for? But Ms. Calista had rejected Mr. Kallum’s simple request to have a candlelight dinner together just like that! Poor Mr. Kallum…. 
Kallum rolled his shoulders and threw him a dirty look. 

“If you say anymore, I’ll exchange you for Julian in Liberia! 
Quintus quickly shut his mouth after that. Julian Parker had sent some news back earlier, saying that Liberia was now infected with the K Virus and the government was unable to do anything about it, so there was a lot of internal conflict happening there. Going there was as good as punishing himself! No way was he going there! 

Kallum saw that he was silent, and he smiled a little. 
He felt that Calista seemed gentler towards him, and that wasn’t just his own imagination! He had a feeling that he was going to win her over soon! 
…and that’s why it’s often said that men’s intuition isn’t accurate. 
When Calista got home, she noticed that the atmosphere in the house was very heavy. She hid away her good mood after getting a good rest earlier, smiling coldly as she walked in. “What’s going on? 
She saw that none of the servants were around, but Benedict, Yelena and Quincy were all seated in the living room waiting for her, and she could guess what this was about.

Quincy was saying this while observing Calista’s expression carefully. 
She was so angry as she said these words. She had originally planned to just break in and get those papers, and even if she triggered the security alarm, she was family too so Calista couldn’t say anything. It wasn’t

But who knew, the entire house had already been razed to the ground! After calling the police, the police told her that someone had set fire to the house several days back already. 
But what was she going to use to find a supervisor now? 
Calista nodded frustratedly. “Is that so? Perhaps that day I accidentally kicked the stove over when I left.

she said this, and everyone exchanged weird glances. 
They all knew that out of all of them, Calista was the one who cared most about that run down hut. But after hearing that it had been burnt to the ground, she was still able to smile and say that it happened because she was probably just not careful – it was all very strangel 
Benedict suddenly felt fear in his heart. 
“Callie, that’s where you spent the most time when you were a little girl. Now that it’s all sad?”

Calista was the most filial to her grandparents, and now that everything they left behind was gone, Calista’s reaction was extremely abnormal. 
“Since it’s all burnt then it’s all burnt,” Calista smiled, revealing a mouth full of pearly whites. “These things should have been destroyed after their owners passed away anyway. Is there food in the kitchen? I’m hungry.” 
Yelena managed to snap out of her shock. She smiled stiffly and said, “Yes there is, all your favorites…” 
“Ok, I’ll get it myself.” But before Calista turned to leave for the kitchen, she put on a poker face and asked, “Then again, there’s nothing valuable in that house. How did you find out that it had been burnt down?” 
Benedict looked towards Quincy, and she quickly bent her head and said, “I discovered it 
Before she could explain further, Calista pursed her lips into a smile. 
“I remember you said before that the house was haunted because that’s where Grandpa and Grandma died. Since you suddenly went there for no reason, aren’t you afraid of being possessed?” 
She purposely said the last few words in a scary low voice, sending chills down everyone’s spine. 
Quincy quickly cut in to explain herself. 
“I never said anything like that! How can the place where Grandpa and Grandma passed away haunted?”

Calista couldn’t be bothered to listen to her explanation and made her way to the kitchen.

Callie is the one who’s saying really frightening things….tell you what, my nephew turns one month old in a few days, let’s bring Callie along to the party at my parents‘ place. She might feel better after getting some fresh air.” 
Benedict nodded. Calista’s words hadn’t just made Quincy feel guilty, he felt guilty too. “Sure, we’ll bring Callie along too!” 
After he married Yelena, the Staffords and Langleys‘ businesses were also tied together. If Callie could go out more often and build a good relationship with the Langleys, it would do her good in the future too. 
If Calista knew about Benedigt’s innocent thinking, she would probably have a good laugh. 
On the day of the first month party, Benedict brought the entire family along as previously agreed.

Chapter 77 Standing On Trial 
In the past, Calista would try to avoid having to go out because she was fearful of her stepmother. The less she interacted with her stepmother, the more carefree she felt, and eventually Calista gave an impression that she preferred being alone and she was rebellious and rude. Others were happy to see Quincy, but they would be judgmental towards Calista, so Calista began to hate going for gatherings, and didn’t like having to mix around with her so called ‘relatives. 
But that was in her previous life. 
When he knew that Calista was attending a party, Kallum sent a tailored long blue dress over the day before. It seemed conservative since it was a long dress, but it carried an air of mysterious beauty about it too, accentuating the best of Calista, making her look unforgettable. 
Calista didn’t want to accept a present from Kallum since Sterling had already been called back home by. Harvey urgently and she didn’t need to worry about him. But Kallum was very clever and guessed that Calista wouldn’t want the clothes that Yelena prepared for her. Since his present had addressed a concern she had, it was hard to reject this gift. 
Calista decided not to make a fuss, so she owed Kallum one. 
Yelena had indeed prepared a dress that didn’t quite suit Calista, because she didn’t want Calista to steal the limelight from her own daughter. But Calista had her own dress and so her plans went up in smoke. 
At the Langley residence, countless guests started arriving. There were people greeting the guests in the front of the house, but the head of the Langleys gathered his family members at the back annexe of the house, as if he was waiting for someone to appear. 
The head of the Langleys was already over sixty, but his eyes still sparkled brightly, and was definitely no simple man. 
He had three sons, three grandsons and five granddaughters, so he was considered blessed. 
His eldest daughter–in–law, Joanna Ziegler, came in smiling and asked, “Dad, we’re so busy outside! Why did you call us here instead of greeting the guests?” 
The other sons and their wives were also looking confusedly at the head of the household, Matthew Langley. 
“Yelena is coming back today. I heard that there was some unhappiness in their house and Benedict wants to divorcr over it, so all of you sit here obediently! Then when Benedict arrives, all of you better advise 
what right does he have to bring up divorce!”
