Her Rebirth of Retribution
Chapter 258 Tampering With The Blood Test

On the surface, no one would dare have any objections.

"Now that there aren't any, I just want to reiterate that how can Mr. Kallum not be fine when he's standing right here?"

Someone chuckled and hastily said, "Exactly, those suspicious folks were up to no good from the very beginning!"

Compared to these Monday morning quarterbacks, those who were hoping for the downfall of the Fairchild family looked rather upset. In fact, there was no need for a blood test, as most of them had already believed Kallum's words. As the K virus was lethal, even if Kallum had tried every possible means to prolong his life, it was impossible for him to look as if nothing had happened after a month. It was now clear to them that he was truly very fortunate.

Just as the small bowl was about to be removed, an unexpected turn of events occurred.

A woman was forcefully shoved, causing her to stumble forward and crash into the housekeeper who was about to leave with the bowl. The impact was so severe that all the water in the small bowl was spilled. Calista's pupils slightly constricted, silently locking eyes with Kallum.

The housekeeper kept apologizing incessantly, while the woman who had been shoved wore a curious expression. She shouted angrily, "Who was it? Who pushed me on purpose?"

Many people rushed to assist her, yet not a single person claimed to have seen who was responsible.

Kallum's face darkened as he waved his hand, and the soaked carpet was promptly replaced. Most people were oblivious to the implications of this incident, but Calista knew just how serious this matter was.

The banquet carried on as usual, while Kallum and Calista stepped away from the crowd, their expressions somewhat grim.

"Has the carpet been taken care of?" Kallum quietly asked Quintus.

"It's been taken care of. The lady who fell didn't know who bumped into her. She had already changed out of her drenched clothes, but we noticed that a small piece of fabric was torn from the corner of her garment. When asked, she didn't know when it got torn." "It seems we're being targeted, but we don't know by whom though..."

Calista felt a wave of frustration, her brows furrowing. She had tampered with the water just now and if someone were to get their hands on it for testing, things could get complicated.

"They couldn't have taken anything." Kallum asked Paul in a deep voice, "Has anyone left the premises earlier than expected?"

The butler responded, "No, everyone is still in the banquet hall."

"Just because they were in the dining hall doesn't mean they didn't spread the news. Even if they didn't take anything for analysis, we might have already been exposed."

Kallum suddenly squinted his eyes. "Who was the first to help that woman when she fell just now?"

Someone recalled, then stated, "It was Mrs. Yost."

Meanwhile, Harvey received a phone call from that very person while still in the hospital.

"There's no doubt. I tested it with litmus paper. The water that stained the fabric wasn't pure; it was something else. Although I don't know what was added, it caused the litmus paper to change color! Why wouldn't they use pure water if they had nothing to hide? The reason Why there was no issue with Kallum's blood is very likely related to that bowl of water. I took a great risk to get this!"

In a corner of the banquet hall, Mirabelle's mother, Regina

Whiteman, was somewhat flustered as she destroyed the fabric and test paper in her hands. She felt a lingering fear in her heart. She knew she couldn't take these things with her, nor did she dare to. The courage it took to push that woman earlier was the most she had ever mustered in her life. Even as she made the phone call, her hand was trembling.

"There's something wrong with that bowl of water? But hadn't Kallum already suffered from it for a month?" Harvey murmured to himself.

"I don't know what's really going on. The Fairchild family won't replace out it was me, right? Promise me, if the Fairchild family ever discovers this, you can't turn me in!"

Regina repeatedly cautioned him, but Harvey was simply in no mood to listen further.

Is Kallum's illness cured or not? If it wasn't, how is he able to attend the banquet like a normal person? If it was, why was there a need to tamper with the public blood test? Recalling Sterling's words before his death, the sickly Harvey was struck by a sudden realization.

"I got it! Alright, I've got it all figured out!"

Upon having the epiphany, Harvey couldn't contain his emotions, shouting out loud in the ward. His chubby face contorted in sheer excitement.

"I've realized that we've all been deceived. The Fairchild family is truly cunning; they're done for now!"

Regina was somewhat bewildered. "What have you learned? You haven't even answered my question yet!"

However, before she could finish her sentence, Harvey had already hung up the phone.

The flustered Regina called again but received a notification saying that the line was engaged.

However, judging by Harvey's tone, regardless of what he had learned, it was clearly something detrimental to the Fairchild family.

Her expression transformed from

fear to determination. In contrast to

Harvey's desperation, Regina was merely seeking revenge for her daughter. So, when Harvey sought her out, she agreed without hesitation despite the danger, as she knew that this was her only chance.

Thinking about the imminent downfall of the Fairchild family, a somewhat sinister smile crept onto Regina's ordinary-looking face.

"Kallum, Calista, for harming my daughter, you must pay the price!"

However, her moment of triumph was short-lived. As soon as she turned around, she came face-to-face with the stern-looking Paul. He cast a glance at her, his voice laced with disdain as he spoke. "Mrs. Yost, I presume? This way, please. Ms. Calista has something to discuss with you."
