Her Vengeful Rebirth ( Calista ) Novel

Chapter 214 Such A Risk 

Silas spoke at length, but seeing that Kallum remained unmoved, he couldn’t help but let out a long sigh. “Kallum, I understand that whatever you do, you always have a plan. However, in times like these, it’s better to be safe than sorry. With so many eyes on our family, how could you take such a risk?” 

Seeing the white hairs at Silas‘ temples, Kallum realized that he might have crossed the line. Unable to help himself, he patiently tried to calm things down. “Don’t worry. When I returned, I had already reached an agreement with Nevis Bushwick. From now on, I can freely come and go from Corleon without taking any risks.” 

Upon seeing that Silas still disagreed, Kallum furrowed his brows. “My life was saved by Callie. If anything happens to her, I won’t be able to live. Therefore, I need to keep her close to feel at peace. Let’s not discuss this anymore. I won’t change my mind.” 

Seeing his resolute attitude. Silas resignedly skipped over the topic. “By the way, you know about Sterling hosting a banquet in Horington, right? Over the past year, you’ve been constantly antagonizing the Wolford family. There’s a chance they might be coming to seek revenge on you.” 

Silas didn’t hold absolute power, so he knew very little about what Kallum had done. The fact that Callista had made a big profit in Corleon was only known to his trusted aides. As for Sterling, perhaps seeing that they had already handled the supplies and destroyed the evidence, telling the truth would not have any corroboration and would only stir up trouble for himself. Therefore, he didn’t spread rumors after returning to his home country. 

Kallum said, “I’ll handle that matter myself. Since Sterling wants to play dirty, we can release the evidence. we have. If he dared to collaborate with Uriah, he should be prepared for his reputation to be ruined.” 

Only then did Silas feel at ease. “All right, I’ll stay out of this matter then.” 

As he spoke, a shadow passed over his eyes. “Take good care of yourself. I can tell that there seems to be something wrong with your health.” 

Kallum was taken aback, not expecting to be discovered so quickly. 

After contracting the disease, he was originally expected to live for only a month at most. The damage inflicted by the K Virus on the human body was devastating. Even though Callista managed to save his life, the K Virus wouldn’t just let him off. Instead, it would only get worse. 

Callista had mentioned before that, despite daily exercise, medication, and treatments, his health was still. deteriorating. That was evident in his muscle atrophy and weakened immunity, among other symptoms. Unless the virus was defeated, there was no way to prevent that. 

He might become disabled in the future, but what was truly terrifying was the potential for his skin to become inflamed and decay. Eventually, it might get to the point where a single drop of rain landing on him would feel as painful as being shot. In the end, when all sensation of pain had disappeared, he would be living like a walking corpse. 

Thus, Kallum was well–prepared for the changes in his own body. 

In front of Callista, he had always maintained an air of normalcy. In reality, every stride he took felt as if his leg muscles were on the verge of tearing apart and his bones were being ground down by a knife. Each 

he took was akin to walking on the edge of a blade Ver in Callista’s presence he umally managed to

However, in the presence of others, Kallum either refrained from walking or didn’t bother to conceal it excessively, so Silas noticed. 

Kallum’s expression remained unchanged. “The changes in my body are normal and unavoidable unless the virus is defeated.” 

He looked at Silas with a serious expression. “So, there’s no need to let Callie know about this. It would just add unnecessary stress for her.” 

Is he worried about her stress or that she would be concerned? Silas didn’t voice his thoughts, but it was evident to him that his son was deeply in love. It was as if every time Kallum went to find her, he was ready to fight against the Wolford family till the end. Even though every attempt was challenging and thankless, he undertook them willingly. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Indeed, thanks to Callista, Kallum’s life had been extended. Silas and the others had no choice but to place all their hopes on her, wishing she could truly succeed. 

The following days passed by rather peacefully. 

During that time, Callista had a meeting with Benedict. 

Benedict was vastly different from his past self. Initially, with the unconditional support of the Fairchild family, he was somewhat cautious but gradually grew more complacent. Despite his naturally non- confrontational nature, even when he got carried away, it merely manifested in boasting. He never dared to do anything excessive. 

However, Yelena was a drastically different person from a year ago. Given Callista’s high status and prominence, even if she harbored deep resentment, she couldn’t express it. In this past year, she had been behaving subserviently, which ironically led to Benedict sleeping with her a few more times. 

Upon hearing Callista’s words, Benedict responded with a hint of perplexity, “The Wolford family? Sterling did send me a message, but something about it seemed off. I don’t even know him, so I decided. not to pursue that connection.” 

Callista found her father quite amusing. Even though he was confident, he remained as he always had been, avoiding the limelight. He would still dodge influential figures whenever he could. 

“Indeed, it’s best if you stay away because I have a grudge against Sterling. Of course, the Fairchild family is shielding me now, so you’re not directly in the line of fire. However, you should still be cautious,” said Callista. 

“What? You have a grudge with Sterling?” Benedict frowned. “Everyone says the Wolford family is vindictive, you…” 

“No worries, because I’m also vindictive.” Suddenly, Callista laughed. 

Sitting on the couch, she was almost unrecognizable from the timid girl she once was.
