Semua Bab You're Gonna Miss Me When I'm Gone: Bab 91 - Bab 100

Calista intended to mock Lucian. However, he did not lose his temper as she expected.Instead, he looked at her and said, "How do you know no one would back you up? You've never even tried."Calista was taken aback. Did he lose his mind again? She pursed and cautiously took a few steps back and prayed for help against this lunatic. Lucian's face darkened when he saw her reaction."What is this?" Calista threw the plate onto the table and warned, "Stay away from me so I don't get infected by your madness and end up as crazy as you."Then, she turned around and headed to the restroom. As she exited the bathroom stall, several people surrounded her, blocking her way. "Calista, aren't you going to catch up with your old friends?"The leader of the group was Amanda Riley, Sharon's best friend. She was one of Calista's classmates in university, as were the others behind her. However, she wasn't familiar with them as they were from different faculties. Calista raised an eyebrow and

Sharon took the microphone from the host's hand. Her face flushed red, and her body shook with embarrassment. She clenched her teeth, and her grip tightened on the microphone. A public apology was like trampling onto the Beckett family’s reputation. Theodore looked at her with a blank face.She could already expect his reaction after the guests left. But it would make matters worse if she didn't apologize. She shut her eyes and began.“My name is Sharon, and I would like to apologize to my friend, Calista.” Calista watched with little interest. Taking advantage of the moment when Lucian relaxed his guard, she pulled her hand back and said nothing.Then, she turned and walked toward the parking lot. She had driven here tonight.There were footsteps not too far behind her. She knew it was Lucian, but she didn't pay him any attention. After the incident, anyone who could read the room had been finding an excuse to leave. The Beckett family’s home only had one parking lot, so it

Lucian was leaning against his bedside in the hospital room, talking on the phone. Upon hearing a sound, he looked up and saw Calista.He furrowed his brows and asked, "Cade called you?"Calista rolled her eyes irritably. "He said you were dying and asked me to sign the consent form to give up on any treatment and have you cremated."She walked in and sat down on the chair next to the hospital bed.Earlier, she had asked the doctor and learned that his stomach problems were caused by drinking on an empty stomach. He could leave once he felt better.Lucian tossed the phone onto the bedside table."I'm hungry." Calista stared at him, then reluctantly took out her phone to order some delivery. She just wanted to quickly finish serving him his meal so they could go their separate ways.She didn't want to return home just to have Cade call her to come by again. She still had some self-respect. Lucian's gaze fell on her. He spoke lightly."I might have another stomach ache by t

David was familiar with the place since he often worked with Lucian in the study. He called softly by the door, "Madam Calista, have you found the records?"He heard everything just now and knew there were no health records. Calista lifted her head; her eyes were red, and her face was pale.She looked at David with a distant and empty gaze. Even though her eyes were fixed on him, it seemed she wasn't looking at him. "Are you alright?" Calista took the painting out of the drawer. She didn't avoid David's puzzled gaze as she walked to the door.Instead, she handed him the picture and said, "I'm fine. Do you like it? I plan to take it home and hang it on the bedroom wall." David was speechless and swallowed hard. The painting had very dark and eerie tones. It might be more suitable to hang it someplace discreet. Calista could tell what he was thinking from his silence. She was going through a difficult time in the Everhart family when she created this painting.Her dad and ste

The two of them parted ways unhappily. As soon as Calista left, she called Harvey."I want to file for divorce." Harvey had already looked over the advantages and disadvantages of filing a divorce for her before. So, he didn’t say much and advised her on the documents she had to prepare. After hanging up the phone, she let out a long sigh. Calista had not planned to make such a big deal out of it. She wanted her marriage to end quietly, like how it started.The media kept a watchful eye on the Northwood family due to their high social status. Any event would be publicized.She didn't want to expose this troubled marriage to the public, subjecting herself to gossip, sympathy, and sarcastic remarks.But she hadn't expected that she would ultimately end up in a courtroom with Lucian. She found a coffee shop, ordered a simple meal, and arranged to meet someone in an hour. Soon, a man in a black jacket and a face mask walked in.He looked around before heading straight for C
