Chapter 7

Author: Perfect Timing
It was a familiar voice, and I couldn't help cursing inwardly when I heard it.

I thought, "She's here again… I'm standing right here, and she's acting as if I'm invisible. She's only got eyes for Cal."

Callum heard my thoughts and put his fist to his lips, but I could still see a smile break out on his face. He turned to look outside when he saw how annoyed I was.

"Didn't I tell you not to come to our home again?"

Eliana's eyes turned red, and tears began rolling down her cheeks at once.

"Cal, what did I do wrong? Why must you all treat me like this? Ant told me not to go to his house again, either. Is it because Sophie and Kyra don't like me? Is that why—"

She paused and looked up piteously at me.

I couldn't help thinking to myself, "Who would like a woman who's trying to seduce their husband?"

Callum heard my thoughts, and his expression flickered.

"If there isn't anything in particular, you should go. Don't call me 'Cal' in the future, either. It sounds too affectionate

  • When the Other Woman Heard My Heart   Chapter 9

    The next day, things went on as normal. Callum told Anthony about our plan and what we had deduced. We didn't tell Kyra in case she could not resist rushing up to fight it out with Eliana. The three of us ate dinner distractedly, after which I pulled Kyra back to my room to sleep.Callum and Anthony crouched in the corners of the yard, waiting for Eliana to fall into our trap.I lay on my bed as I listened to Kyra snoring beside me, but I couldn't help feeling nervous. What if I had guessed wrongly?Luckily, Eliana did not disappoint me.In the middle of the night, there was a commotion downstairs."Let me go! Let me go!"It was Eliana's voice, and when I heard her, I could no longer resist. I got out of bed. The noise had woken our neighbors, and the yard was already packed with onlookers. Eliana was sitting on the ground, looking even more pitiful than usual under the dim orange glow of the lamps. "Cal, what did I do wrong? Why are you and Ant doing this to me?"It w

  • When the Other Woman Heard My Heart   Chapter 8

    After Kyra and I both got divorced, we heard that Eliana took turns comforting Anthony and Callum. She put in a lot of effort, but neither Callum nor Anthony chose to be with her. What was strange was that Anthony, who had always been focused on his career, died suddenly from an acute illness. Meanwhile, Callum's heart stopped suddenly while he was out on a mission.Both of them passed away. What was even stranger was that they had both left all their assets to Eliana.Although some people thought that it was impossible, more people thought that it might have been due to the fact that both Anthony's and Callum's families owed the Sullivans a debt. Since neither of them had any remaining relatives, they had decided to leave all their assets to Eliana, the only living descendant of the Sullivans.That was when it suddenly occurred to me that I might have been wrong all along. Perhaps what Eliana wanted wasn't Callum or Anthony, but what they owned.I reached down to caress my sto

    Eliana rarely made an appearance after that. My life with Callum became peaceful once more, and our relationship became stronger. However, Kyra turned up angrily at our place one day."Soph, Eliana is truly bad news!"I smacked myself on the head when I saw my sister, whose cheeks were bright red with anger. Oh no! I had been so focused on strengthening my relationship with Callum that I'd forgotten to ask Kyra how things were with her. At that thought, I hastily made her a cup of hot chocolate. I comforted her quickly. "What's wrong? What kind of terrible thing has she done to make you so angry?"My sister had been drinking her hot chocolate, but she slammed it down hard on the table."She's a two-faced bitch! She keeps coming to my house with presents lately, and she told me that she's doing it to thank me for donating blood to her. Of course, I'm happy to receive them. After all, I shed so much blood for free."I nodded at this point. There was nothing wrong with thin

    Before I could figure things out, Callum said in a low voice, "Eliana isn't the little girl I grew up with anymore. Perhaps things had already changed by the time mine and Anthony's family were falsely accused. Mr. and Mrs. Sullivan were doing their best to get help for us, but Eliana went to report us and cut ties with us."I've always kept Mr. and Mrs. Sullivan's kindness to us in mind, and I kept telling myself that Eliana was just too young at the time. It was natural for her to be afraid in a situation like that. I didn't realize that she was no longer the kind, innocent little girl she once was."Callum paused and pushed me away so that he could look into my eyes. "Sophie, perhaps the heavens are giving me a hint. They gave me a chance to hear your thoughts. Otherwise, who knows how many misunderstandings there would have been between us?"I couldn't help but sigh as I saw the redness in his eyes.I looked into his eyes and asked seriously, "If you hadn't heard my thoughts, w

    A dead silence fell over the living room.After a moment, Callum laughed softly, as if nothing had happened. "I was just teasing. You keep saying that you can hear Sophie's thoughts, but we live in the era of science now. How could that be possible?"I was just scaring you. However, you must not use that to slander Sophie anymore. Don't you think I know what kind of person she is?"He began urging Eliana to leave. Eliana breathed a long sigh of relief, but she looked defiant, as if ready to object. However, after a moment's thought, she left our home without saying anything. Her eyes were full of hatred, jealousy, and defiance.Unexpectedly, Callum took my hand as soon as Eliana left.He looked carefully at my expression and pretended to be casual as he asked, "Honey, do you think that telepathy exists?"My chest tightened, and my eyes widened as I smacked him on the arm. "What are you talking about? Are you about to say that you know everything I'm thinking? Well, tell me. W
