Her Rebirth of Retribution
Chapter 200 No Way Out

After considering Calista's character, Jarrett thought that if the reasons were compelling enough, she might actually go through with it. Unfortunately, he knew all too well that Calista's main objectives was to take Sterling's life on top of the money. "That's our business. You don't need to concern yourself with it, Mr. Wolford," Jarrett said with a devious smile. "Perhaps, Mr. Wolford, you should focus on your current predicament. After all, your life is in my hands."

Sterling's thoughts raced. Suppressing all his resentment and bitterness, he managed to maintain his composure and said, "What has Calista promised you? Take over all my assets? But what is mine won't automatically become yours even if I die. Keeping me around and controlling me would be more beneficial for you!"

Jarrett remained silent, seemingly deep in thought.

Sterling's face was anxious as he continued, "If you're willing to let me go, I won't take anything from this cave. I'll even ensure you're adequately compensated!"

He licked his lips, a fierce determination flashing in his eyes. "Moreover, I can help you get whatever's inside that cave. Rather than letting Calista or the Fairchild family reap the benefits, I'd prefer you to have it. Think about it, isn't this more profitable than killing me?" "Your suggestion is truly enticing."

Jarrett shook his head with a snigger. If he was collaborating with anyone else but Calista, Kallum for example, he might have agreed.

"Regrettably, I can't agree to your proposal."

Sterling's expression darkened.

With a sigh in his heart, Jarrett spoke in a low voice. "Hasn't anyone told you about my relationship with Calista?"

With some difficulty, Sterling said, "She saved your younger brother."

"It's more than that. My brother has already recovered, and burning bridges is a common occurrence for me, so this little favor doesn't really count for much."

"Then why on earth..." The vein on Sterling's forehead throbbed as he was unable to comprehend how Jarrett could possibly resist such a huge temptation.

"Because " I like her.

"Are you not done yet?"

Calista's voice interrupted Jarrett's words, and the moment she appeared, Sterling's eyes turned red.

"Calista!"

Upon hearing this, Calista turned toward him, smiling as she spoke. "Oh my, it's been a while, hasn't it, Mr. Wolford? If I recall correctly... We've only met a few times in Horington, right? It's been a year. I hope life's been treating you well, Mr. Wolford?"

Just as Sterling was about to make

a move, the man behind Jarrett

raised his gun, aiming it at him. Although Sterling wasn't hurt, his four remaining subordinates were all injured, making it impossible for them to fight back. This left him helpless, forced to stand by and idly watch the woman he despised act with impunity right in front of him.

"What exactly do you want from me? We have no past grudges or conflicts..."

"No conflicts? Are you sure?" Calista counted off on her fingers as she spoke to him. The first time we met, you almost strangled me. Plus, you helped the people I despise get

away with their actions. Do you not

know that if it weren't for you, they would have been killed a long time ago? Later on, you had Uriah kidnap me. I nearly died back then. Even

now, thinking about it scares me a bit..."

Sterling simply couldn't see any sign of fear in this woman. At that moment, he had no room to show any grace, His gaze was filled with a raw desire to tear her apart.

"Didn't you also cause me to waste billions on a worthless piece of land? You got caught but you're not dead! Moreover, you've gotten Kallum to attack me at every turn. Do you have any idea how much I've lost over the past year?" What an intriguing argument. So, if one doesn't die, it's as if nothing happened?

Calista chuckled lightly. "I understand, I know you're eagerly waiting to use this money to fill the hole. Who knows, this could even be your life-saving fund."

She wore a somewhat smug smile

as she said, 'But what does this

have to do with me? You hired someone to kill me, so it's only fair that I take your life in return, isn't it?

It's just business. Don't tell mole

only you are allowed to profit without any risk?"

But I'm losing more than just money. It's my life at stake here!

Suddenly, the traumatized Sterling took a step back. He subtly signaled to his men beside him. If they could capture Calista, they still had a chance.

"I would advise you all not to act recklessly."

Calista addressed the people around him, "Do you really think Sterling is worth risking your lives for? If you drop your weapons and come over here, I'll spare you. I'm only giving you one chance."

Only then did Sterling truly panic. He stared at the people around him, his body slightly trembling. "Don't forget... don't forget who brought you to where you are! And your families; if I die, your families are done for too!"

"He's destined to die regardless of whether you surrender or resist. But if you choose the former, I might be in the mood to spare your families. However, if you opt for the latter, then prepare for your entire families to join Sterling in the afterlife!" The words of Calista caused the newfound determination of those four individuals to vanish in an instant.

"Boss..." A person by Sterling's side took a few steps back. "I don't want to die yet..."

After he finished speaking, he tossed the gun aside, completely disregarding the furious look in Sterling's eyes.

Once someone took the lead, it was easier to follow. Anyone could understand such a simple concept.

"Guys..."

Sterling found himself gasping for breath, cornered with nowhere left to run. He watched helplessly as his situation grew increasingly dire, yet he was helpless to do anything. The feeling was even more brutal than murder itself!
