All Chapters of Orphan Callistaa : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

"What am I doing here?" She asked him, feeling utterly confused. Why the hell would he bring her to his penthouse? Was this another of his planning to know if she was Cali Ruth or not? Maybe....maybe he knew? No, that could not be. "You were supposed to be driving me to my house, not yours." She said while glaring at him. "He just shrugged his shoulders casually. "I was taking you to your mansion but then it started raining cats and dogs. And I could not drive while it was raining so hard, and since my house was nearer, I brought us both here." He explained. "And, by the way, it was nice knowing that you know that this is my house without me even telling you." He said and smirked at her. She gulped knowing that he was trying to make her confess the one thing she did not wish to. 'Hmm. Nice move, Mr. Cain Hutton.' She mumbled internally and then gave him a sweet smile. "Ofcourse, Mr. Hutton. After all, it does not take a genius to tell that this is your house as the pictures hangi

"Here is your favourite chocolate smoothie." Cain placed a glass of smoothie on the table infront of her. She stared at him coolly with her arms crossed against her chest lazily. Looking out of the window, she saw that rain had already stopped. "Come on, start eating. Do you want some waffles?" He asked coming back to sit next to her with his own plate and glass. She shook her head in a no and started eating feeling a bit hungry now. Also, she wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. She did not wish to stay close to him anymore. "Um..do you like my smoothie?" He asked trying to get her into some conversation with him when he noticed her eating quietly. She had really changed in these past months. She was never this quiet before. She only nodded at him still eating her muffin quietly. "What happened? You are so quiet." He finally asked. She gave him an annoyed look. " As you can see I am eating, Mr. Hutton. I don't like talking while I eat." She said through her gritted teeth.

"By the way, what are you still doing here?" Asked Cali as she squinted her eyes at him. Cain raised one of his eyebrows at her as if giving her a look that said, 'What the hell with that question?' "I mean, were you not supposed to be to out of station for some days? Then why are you still here having this meeting with me?" She asked him clearly. He nodded his head slowly with his chin planted on his palm as he propped his arm on his elbow leaning forward on the table. "About that...I was all ready to go but then the meeting there suddenly got canceled at the last moment. So, here I am having this meeting with you. I hope that answers your question?" He stared at her as she nodded at him. A lie, a complete lie was what it was. He had never planned to go anywhere in the first place. He had said that to her just because he wanted to spend time with her. And he would do it again if he needed to. 'I sure have become shameless.' He suddenly chuckled out loud at that thought. She gave him

"Cali, do you want to go out? Come on, let us go out for some fresh air. You are in there for the whole day now. Open up! Do you need me to call a doctor?" Came in Harold's voice from the other side of her room's door which was locked from the inside. Cali sighed in frustration. "No, Harold. I will be alright. It is just a headache. Please, I just need some rest. That is all." She replied from inside. "Okay, but call me if you need anything, yeah?" She replied with a quick yes and he left her be afterwards. Cali sighed as she heard footsteps retreating from outside her room and plopped down on her bed. She looked at her mobile phone which was now switched off. She had to switch it off because of a certain someone who was blowing up her phone with calls and text messages since the morning. She did not want to respond to him yet, so she just turned her phone off. It was now six in the evening and she was getting bored. Since she had nothing else to do right now other than just layi

Five days later.... Sitting inside her office cabin, Cali was trying to focus on her work but everytime her mind was drifting to the one and only man who was invading her dreams every night. Everyday in the office, she was anticipating his arrival. But he never came back once to see her after that day when she lied to him about being a gold digger five days ago. Five days, it had been five days since she had seen him. She even contacted his secretary two days back to remind him that they were to discuss the changes in that contract. She thought that he would come to the office even if just for the sake of that contract. But how wrong she was! He sent his secretary to her office instead and did not come there himself. She was getting vexed now. She wanted to use the boss card by demanding that his presence was needed here but refrained from doing so because if she did something like that, he would get the idea that he affected her which was true to some extent. She shook those though
