Chapter 119 Propose A Deal

His eyes were bloodshot as he questioned the people in the room. However, no one dared to answer; Kallum had already imposed a gag order.

When no one spoke up. Silas assumed that the virus just suddenly flared up. After all, the K Virus was unpredictable once it entered the human body. No one could foresee what might happen next. The only certainty was that no one infected had survived past a month.

In order not to disturb Kallum’s rest, the couple could only check on him from outside the door before leaving to search for a cure.

After they left, Kallum opened his eyes. His deep purple irises, which seemed to be a lighter shade at that moment, appeared stunningly brilliant.

He could no longer repay his parents for everything they did for him. Even without him, they could still lead a good life. However, it was different for Calista. Since Harvey and the Wolfords had set their sights. on Calista, the best solution was to make Calista the Fairchild family’s goddaughter.

With the Fairchild family backing her, she was bound to lead a worry–free life.

However, to Kallum’s surprise, Calista came the following evening.

Kallum was puzzled when he received the message. He hadn’t seen Mirabelle again after yesterday. Did Calista notice something?

He was torn, hoping Calista could notice his feelings yet at the same time didn’t want her to know.

However, oddly enough, Calista met Silas first.

At that time, Silas was overwhelmed with responsibilities. Handing over the Fairchild Group to his son had been the best decision. Kallum was talented and intelligent, young but unstoppable. Under his leadership. the company’s profits soared, injecting the family business with new life and vigor, which made Silas both satisfied and proud.

But now, Silas found himself in a dire situation. Not only did he have to temporarily step back into Kallum’s role, but he also had to actively search for doctors who might save his son. Additionally, he needed to keep the family’s predicament hidden from outsiders. There were so many tasks to manage that he wished he could split himself into several pieces to handle it all.

When Calista requested to see him, he was initially quite annoyed. However, recalling some rumors that suggested his son might be fond of Calista, he frowned and reluctantly agreed to meet her.

Silas was a serious and stoic man. Previously, he spent most of his time expanding his territory in Machia, so Calista rarely saw him.

Stepping into the Fairchild Manor once again, Calista found herself much calmer and at peace. The subtle aggression she exuded made Silas, who had initially looked down on her, tone down his contempt.

Silas scrutinized the girl who stepped gracefully into the residence. She wasn’t like this before. Although she looks the same, the change in her demeanor is drastic. It’s like two different people!

Kallum’s living quarters had been declared off–limits. Everyone exiting Kallum’s room had to be tested for the virus first before they were permitted to leave. Thus, it was only normal that Calista was forbidden from seeing Kallum.

However, Calista shook her head. “No, I came to see you.”

“See me?” Silas tensed up, his intimidating gaze boring into the girl. “What do you want from me?”

Calista got straight to the point. “Is it true t

Kallum contracted the K Virus?”

That one single sentence from her was nothing short of shocking.

Silas‘ gaze hardened, and a man emerged from the shadows. Apparently, if necessary, Silas would not hesitate to silence Calista for good.

“Who else knows about this matter?” Silas blurted out.

Calista smiled, her eyes twinkling as she spoke with an air of unruffled calmness. “Oh, I figured that out myself. I came to this conclusion because I was also in Lostaria when Kallum was there. As of now, I’m the only one who knows about this.”

As soon as Calista finished speaking, she could feel the man lurking behind her draw closer. Yet, she remained unfazed, her gaze steadily fixed on Silas.

“Also, I came specifically because of his illness,” she said.

“You’re trying to threaten me with Kallum’s matter?” Silas narrowed his eyes, a subtle hint of murderous exuding from him. His tone changed too as he tried to discern Calista’s intentions. “Or… are you trying to blackmail me?”

As his words trailed off, the man hidden in the shadows emerged behind Calista. She could sense the lurking danger, but instead of turning around, she shook her head nonchalantly, a half–smile playing on her lips. “No, that’s not it. I came here to propose a no–lose deal.”

Silas appeared uninterested as Calista heard the faint sound of a gun being cocked behind her. In the dimly lit room, every noise was crystal clear. Anyone timid or of weaker resolve would likely have been too terrified to speak coherently.

But fear seemed to elude Calista. Despite knowing that a single misstep in her next words could result in her being shot, she didn’t show a hint of trepidation.

Her composure caused Silas to waver, prompting him to ask, “What kind of deal?”

In reality, he didn’t believe that Calista had anything that could sway him. Therefore, the man behind Calista didn’t back down. His gun was already aimed at the back of Calista’s head. After all, the K Virus matter was of utmost importance and could not be taken lightly.

“I can prolong Kallum’s life. I’m using this to propose a deal.” Calista dropped yet another bombshell.
