Chapter 439 Just A Matter Of Time
After the event, someone conducted an interview. “Ms. Stafford, at merely twenty years old, you’ve already achieved so much. May I ask, what are your plans moving forward?”
Calista held the trophy. Her eyes sparked like a sky full of stars, and she exuded an aura of confidence and strength.
“I want to work in a hospital as a volunteer doctor. My medical skills are quite good, and I want to save more lives.”
Everyone was taken aback by what Calista had said, prompting some to question in bewilderment, “You’re not pursuing medical research anymore? Sometimes, the introduction of a unique drug can save countless lives, like penicillin and the K–virus antiserum. Why are you choosing to become a doctor instead?”
Calista shook her head. “Medical research has always been behind the scenes. Now, I want to face life directly. Isn’t life wonderful? I want to see others regain this kind of happiness under my care.”
“Will you continue to pursue medical research in the future? With your skills, it would be a real loss to the medical field if you switched to being a doctor.”
“Absolutely,” Calista responded to the persistent swarm of reporters before getting into the car. “I won’t abandon my medical research, and I can still save lives as a doctor. The two aren’t mutually exclusive.”
After Calista got into the car, the reporters were still chasing after it. Their reaction was more intense than that of fans meeting an international superstar. Once in the car, Calista let out a long sigh of relief.
Kallum handed over a bottle of water with a smile. “How does it feel to be famous?”
Calista shook her head. “I suddenly feel a bit of sympathy for those celebrities. My face feels like it’s about to freeze from all the smiling.”
Kallum astutely noticed that Calista was a bit different that day. However, he wisely refrained from commenting on it, opting instead to change the subject.
“By the way, the Ministry of Education extended an invitation to you. Apparently, they want to conduct a special interview with you. They intend to turn your experiences in
a textbook to inspire students-”
“Better not. I’m afraid I might set a bad example for the kids,” Calista said with a face full of reluctance.
Kallum slightly curled his lips. “I have one more question.”
“Yes?” Calista turned to look at him.
Suddenly, Kallum leaned in, swiftly/trapping her in his arms. Lowering his voice, he asked ambiguously, “I mentioned before that after this matter is settled, I would propose we consummate our marriage. Callic, isn’t it time to fulfill your promise? Hmm?”
The slight uplift in his tone toward the end of his sentence inexplicably caused everyone inside the car to feel a tingling sensation on their scalps.
Calista stared blankly at him/then turned her head to look ahead.
Quintus, who was driving, pretended to cover his eyes, quickly raising the partition. This cut off Calista‘

against the chair. Do it in the car! I’ll definitely act as if I know nothing!
Calista withdrew her pleading gaze and said flatly, “I didn’t agree…”

Kallum moved closer. An intense look filled his gaze as he spoke in a husky voice. “But you didn’t object at the time either.”
It took Calista a moment to regain her focus. She cleared her throat and added, “Wait a minute! I think we may not be in that kind of relationship yet. You-”
Kallum pressed a finger against her lips, his brows furrowed in displeasure. “We’re not in that kind of relationship? Why don’t you ask in public who Kallum Fairchild’s fiancée is? Most likely, they’ll say your name. If they don’t know, it’s because they don’t follow the news. After all this, you’re still trying to deny it?”
“You…” Calista recoiled slightly, asserting firmly, “I need to think about this.”
Kallum, dissatisfied, lifted her chin, forcing her to look at him. However, his gaze quickly turned aggrieved within a second. “How long have you been pondering this? Can you possibly understand the agony of being an older bachelor? I’m already twenty–fivel Others are not only tired of women but also men. Have you ever seen such a pitiful CEO like me?”
Calista couldn’t help but want to laugh. In the end, she abruptly held back, suppressing her smile. However, her eyes were filled with mirth as she looked at him. “Do you want to do it with a man?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Callie!” Kallum’s tone became noticeably more serious as he started to show his stern side.
“I don’t care. I’m giving you three days to prepare. I must have you. I want to sleep with you.” As he finished speaking with a “ferocious” tone, he leaned over to nip at Calista’s earlobe.
The bobbing of his Adam’s apple and the slight tremor in his voice, filled with longing, caused Calista to abruptly shrink back her neck, her face flushing a deep red.
Her hormones running high and her heart racing, she hastily pushed Kallum away with one hand, feigning impatience as she said, “Let’s talk about it later. There are still three days to go, right?”
Kallum was pushed away and sat to one side with a sullen expression. From the way she looked, he knew she didn’t take him seriously. No, this won’t do. I must sleep with her to rest assured.
And so, he sent a message on his phone: How do I get my fiancée to willingly sleep with me?
Then, he attached a hefty prize.
Subsequently, quite a few people responded, allured by the prospect of
money.
Netizen A commented: What’s there to think about? Just go for it!
Netizen B: Why are you being so formal when you’re already engaged? Girls are usually shy. It’s definitely up to you to make the first move!
Netizen C: Diamond ring, handbag, fresh flowers, and a bit of a romantic setting to set the mood. With a gentle nudge in the right direction, everything will fall into place.
Netizen D: Even the strongest woman may eventually be swayed by a man’s persistent efforts. Be more persistent and, shower her with more sweet nothings. Also, be willing to spend more money and time on her. Once you’ve done all t
