Chapter 85 Exposed On The Spot Wyatt didn't say anything and walked off quietly. He needed to think very carefully about what sort of people his family really was.
When the children saw that their father was this furious, they quickly called others over to help to clean up the mess and placate the guests. After stime, the main hall went back to its original state, but all the guests were still a little tense. There was almost no excitement throughout the party, and many left soon after. After the party ended, Matthew suddenly fell ill and was sent straight to the hospital.
This was the first tthe Langleys had suffered such humiliation, but they could only clench their teeth and swallow their words, so it was little wonder that even a formidable man like Matthew couldn't take it and collapsed.
Calista was feeling pretty good after receiving news of his collapse, and didn't even mind the sight of Kallum. If he hadn't appeared, she was prepared to destroy everybody in the Langley residence along with herself in the month she was supposed to spend there. But Kallum had unexpectedly appeared and she felt warmth in her heart.
"Thanks for doing this," Calista thanked him very sincerely. She didn't want to have any further entanglement with Kallum, but it seemed like she was deeply entangled with him already. She had used her status as his fiancée to gain leverage several times already. If she could turn the fiancée status into goddaughter status, that would be best. If that deal was still on, then she could flaunt her goddaughter status anyt- the only thing she had to do in return was to earn money for him anyway. Unfortunately, he said that he was in love with her. Kallum couldn't resist a smile when he realized that he had made the right move this tand he was in a good mood. "You're my fiancée, so you don't have to say thank you!" Calista was about to say something when Kallum suddenly dragged her into the car. "Calong! I'll bring you somewhere!" Kallum brought her to Havenrock Villa and Calista still had no idea what he was trying to do. He turned on the television and pulled her to sit on the sofa.

Calista had a confused look on her face and wanted to ask, but then she heard Kallum's distant voice from above her head, "Didn't you say Mirabelle plagiarized Xandra's idea? I found Xandra." Calista focused her eyes and stared at the scene of a noisy live concert on the TV screen. The screen was so huge, she felt like she was at the arena watching it live.
This was Mirabelle's concert stage...
"What...did you do?" To Calista, Kallum had always favored Mirabelle because he thought she had saved him back when he was drowning. But since too many years had passed, Kallum couldn't prove who really saved him back then, and so logically, he should not have taken any action against Mirabelle.
Kallum replied in a low voice, "Perhaps you were right." ""What?" "Mirabelle - she's a cruel and vicious woman alright. I've met with Xandra, and it's really unbelievable, but he was fed poison by Mirabelle herself so that he would not be able to speak anymore." His eyes carried a lot of conflicting emotions as he continued, "If she could poison a person and steal his ideas, why would someone like that risk her life to save me?" Calista smiled a little but didn't say anything and continued to watch the screen.
So Kallum had dragged her here to watch a good show that he had prepared beforehand? Mirabelle's demure face appeared on the screen and Calista started feeling deep discomfort. She started fidgeting from her uneasiness, so Kallum pulled her into his arms. Even though she was being held like this, Calista still felt cold and uneasy - this was the woman she was once most envious of, and eventually hated deeply.
Her voice and face were a nightmare to Calista.
"I would like to thank everyone here for coming, and as usual, I will be dancing the main dance for tonight, 'Waterfront Serenade"." Her gentle voice agitated Calista's brain through the screen, but the audience onscreen were cheering and shouting loudly, saying that Mirabelle was like a fairy from their dreams, and her beauty was comparable only to fairies that appeared in their dreams.
After waving the long white sleeves of her dance costumes, Mirabelle then continued, "I wanted to complete 45 shows, but unfortunately my leg is acting up again, so we had to cancel the last show, and today will be the final show of this tour. Everyone with a ticket can get a refund, and I will bear all the losses. This dance is the dance that madefamous and it will also serve as an apology to all those who will miss the cancelled show. I'm so sorry to all my fans." Mirabelle elegantly bowed in apology, and the pain, regret and suffering in her eyes were clearly seen through the camera, revealing a beauty in her fragility.
But Calista only understood one message from her speech.
Mirabelle was coming back, and she was coming back earlier than originally scheduled.
Kallum felt her entire body was shivering and quickly hugged her tighter. His heart began to feel uneasy - did he do something wrong? "What's wrong? Are you scared?" Calista gripped her hands tightly then released them. "No, I'm very excited!" Excited? Calista suddenly looked up at Kallum's handsface and slowly broke into a smile, "What is it you wantto see?" Kallum looked down at her and replied seriously, "Mirabelle had the guts to cause harm to someone and even plagiarized another person's idea, so I want the world to know what sort of person she really is." Calista raised an eyebrow as she asked, "You used to do anything Mirabelle asked of you. And now you're going to destroy her with your own hands?" Kallum frowned deeply. Calista's reaction was not what he had expected at all.
He had been nice to Mirabelle because he thought she saved him. Now that he was sure that Mirabelle had tricked him, he was going to punish her for her mistakes before she did anything worse - why wasn't Calista happy at all? But Calista had already turned back to watch the show. The music started and Mirabelle started dancing. Her dance steps were light, her body flexible and her expressions demure, capturing the audience right from the start of the dance. The huge screen behind her was originally a photo of the old streets of Pegasustown that the dance was based on, but suddenly the screen switched to footage of a man who was dancing gracefully, and he was also dancing 'Waterfront Serenade'! Initially Mirabelle didn't notice anything wrong or hear what the audience was whispering about, and only stopped when she heard talking coming from the screen behind her. The moment she turned around, she got a shock of her life.

"Mirabelle, do you think I'll get an award for this? I've spent five or six years choreographing this dance and it seems perfect to me, but I'm afraid I'm just overestimating myself."
The Mirabelle in the video smiled coldly as she said, "I'm sure this dance of yours will be very popular! But have a request and I'm not sure if you'd agree to it." Mirabelle was completely stunned. This...this was the scene where she threatened Xandra! Why was there video footage of this?! "Turn it off! Quickly turn it off!"
The audience had no idea what was happening, but they could hear a shrill voice coming from Mirabelle that they'd never heard before, while the production crew was breaking out in cold sweat from anxiety. "We can't, the main system has been hacked into and we can't turn it off!" The man and woman in the video continued.
Xandra had a strange expression on his face. "What request? You've helpedso much, so I will agree to anything within my ability." Mirabelle flashed a smile at Xandra.
"It's definitely within your ability. My request is simple - sellthis dance!" Xandra had a shocked look on his face.
"No I can't! This is the fruit of many years of labor and I intend to use it to attain my dreams, so I can't agree to this!" Mirabelle's face darkened as she snorted, "And you think you have a choice? I..." Before the sentence finished, there was suddenly a loud crash! Mirabelle had flung a speaker at the screen to smash it!
