Her Rebirth of Retribution
Chapter 272 The Press Conference

All the turmoil and strife occurred behind the scenes, yet openly churned on the surface.

Finally, the day of the Fairchild family's press conference arrived.

Too many people suspected that the K Virus leaked from the Fairchild family. Thus, on the day of the press conference, the entire venue was packed with people.

The Fairchild family had countless adversaries, along with the families of the victims, state-appointed prosecutors, and swarming journalists. Within half an hour, the venue was already bursting at the seams. Many who could not enter waited outside, watching the sky grow darker, yet their hearts remained restless.

"What do you think the Fairchild family will do to prove their innocence tonight?" a reporter whispered to a colleague.

"They'll probably do a blood test in public, but this time it can't be like the last time where the Fairchild family handled everything. This time, the state will probably conduct the test to convince everyone."

"That makes sense, but since the Fairchild family dared to hold this press conference, I tend to believe them. If the K Virus really leaked from them, they wouldn't have the confidence to do this."

"I agree. They wouldn't shoot themselves in the foot."

Conversations of this sort stirred up quite a buzz throughout the entire venue.

Kallum sat in the car, looking at the dense crowd outside, his expression stern.

"Don't worry, we've prepared thoroughly. Even if something unexpected happens, just trust me. I have a trump card!" Calista spoke lightly to reassure him.

Feeling puzzled, Kallum asked, "A trump card? What did you do?"

Calista smiled mysteriously, her eyes sparkling, "This is a secret! Since it is a trump card, it is absolutely foolproof. Of course, if we do not need to use it, we will not. When the time comes, you'll see." She raised her eyebrows slightly, her tone light. In this tense moment, Kallum could not help but replace her funny.

"I never thought you'd be one to keep secrets."

He guessed Calista was either comforting him or had some medicine that could help him pass the inspection temporarily.

However, the latter seemed unlikely, as if she had such medicine, she wouldn't keep it a secret unless it had significant side effects.

Amid these vague thoughts, Harvey arrived.

Harvey's appearance made the reporters even more excited.

In just a few days, Harvey had lost a lot of weight. Even Yelena might not recognize him at first glance now. Speaking of Yelena and Quincy, they were hiding in the Langley residence. Harvey had fallen to this point, and they had not shown up or spoken a word in his defense. Truly, birds of a feather flock together!

Hooked on an IV drip, Harvey looked weak and pale, as if on the verge of death. His sluggish movements evoked a sense of pity.

Who could recognize him as the once-revered head of the Wolford family from just a month ago? His fall from grace was harsh and brutal.

Harvey had been stirring up trouble these past few days all for this very moment! The Fairchild family, in proving their innocence, could not avoid confronting him. After all, Harvey had vowed that he was targeted by the Fairchild family because he knew a secret.

Not only Harvey but Hendrick, who

had failed to gain anything the day before yesterday, also came. Prosecutors, reporters, the Fairchild family's confidants, and enemies- everyone who should and shouldn't be there was present. All that

left was for the Fairchilds to arrive.

At that moment, someone exclaimed softly, "They're here!"

Eight luxurious extended

Rolls-Royces pulled up outside the open-air venue. From each car emerged impeccably dressed black-suited bodyguards. From the most opulent dark-gold vehicle, a tall man in a deep blue suit stepped out. After getting off, he carefully helped a woman out of the car.

Their appearance immediately drew everyone's attention. Attractive people always garnered extra attention, especially when they were the focus of today's event.

They arrived hand in hand, without much fanfare, yet they appeared incredibly glamorous.

"I think Mr. Kallum and his fiancée might be the most attractive couple in high society. Do you agree?" a young reporter murmured.

Someone agreed, "No disagreement here. I was hoping for some big news today, but now, I suddenly hope Mr. Kallum is really fine. Their picture-perfect moment shouldn't be marred by external troubles."

At that moment, everyone's attention was fixed on them. The originally noisy venue gradually quieted down.

Only Kallum and Calista came today. Silas had been tied up because of public opinion, and Wanda had fallen ill. But just the two of them were enough. Their composed entrance exuded enough presence to command the room! Such charisma naturally invited envy.

"Mr. Kallum! You are finally here! Harvey claims you were infected with the K Virus a year ago. What do you have to say about this?"

"Mr. Kallum, is the Fairchild family really not involved in the Horington outbreak? Why are all the infected people attendees of the Fairchild family's banquet?"

"Mr. Kallum, is your family secretly researching the K Virus, leading to its leak in Horington? Could you respond to this?"
