The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 269

Caksta watched Tristan’s expression with a slight frown on her face She had a rare softness in her voice as she comforted him. “You shouldn’t linger on past events None of it was your fault It’s Arabella who should be blamed for deceiving and using you, right?

“Besides, you’ve already paid the price for your poor judgement. It wasn’t your fault. Vivienne should forgive you if she’s reasonable enough”

“Really?” Tristan gazed blankly at Calista, finding his heart fluttering no matter how he looked at her

“Absolutely Calista replied with a faint smile, her voice laced with charm. I believe Vivienne will forgive you. After all, she is your savior’s daughter, and your savior was such a good person, wasn’t she?”

With that, she left Tristan’s hospital room with her iPad, leaving him alone to contemplate

Calista had seen Vivienne’s temper and knew she wouldn’t easily forgive Tristan. So, she planted a seed in Tristan’s mind early on, aiming to create a larger nift between the two of them in the future

Although Tristan was now practically disabled, he still had some worth. If he treated Vivienne like he did Arabella, allowing Vivienne to manipulate him, Calista wouldn’t be happy

After leaving Tristan’s room, Calista didn’t return to her office Instead, she went to Paula’s room.
