Her Rebirth of Retribution novel Chapter 278

In an effort to prevent spreading his ailment to others, Kallum seldom left his house. When he did venture out, he was closely guarded to ensure his safety and was injected with suppressants as if they were free of charge.

Moreover, Harvey's butler had indeed confessed. Those involved in Harvey's activities were all under Kallum's control. Unfortunately, even if he were to hand those people over, others would likely assume it was the Fairchild family coercing confessions, using their authority to suppress others.

“It was you!” At that moment, it seemed as if Harvey had perceived something and desperately rushed onto the stage!

“It was you! Not only did you ruin me, but you also tried to pin all the blame on me! You were secretly researching the K Virus to save your own life, and when it accidentally got leaked, you refused to admit it. Instead, you put all the blame on me! Kallum, you're nothing but a devil! A devil who doesn't care about the lives of all the people in Horington!” Without a hint of shame, Harvey pinned everything on Kallum!

At that moment, the relatives of those infected rushed over, their eyes blazing red, their faces contorted with rage! Their anguish was palpable, coupled with a fury that stemmed from being fooled by vile individuals!

“You still won't admit it at this point? My child is only thirty, and you've ruined him! I don't care! If you can keep living, why should my child be quarantined? You must save him!” one parent shouted.

People were relentless toward Calista. “How could you support such a villain? Kallum should have been quarantined long ago! Yet, you've been covering for him all this while. Now look at the mess. The virus has leaked, and it could potentially wipe out Horington! Yet, you're still defending him!”

“You must save our child! Since Kallum is still alive, our child shouldn't have to die!”

The entire stage seemed to have morphed into a massive vortex, throwing an unexpected twist for the first time. Kallum's mind was racing, yet every countermeasure he could think of was flawed, and every potential outcome was terrifying!

However, he instinctively raised his hand, and in an instant, countless bodyguards emerged from the venue. At first, Howard thought they were sent by the Fairchild family to apprehend someone! As a result, he and the officers behind him were all on high alert!

However, to Howard's surprise, those people were merely there to maintain order. Under the forceful suppression, the previously chaotic situation was immediately subdued. However, one couldn't silence those people.

Those angry accusations, the voices filled with either sorrow or mockery and the various calculating cold gazes made Kallum feel uncomfortable. Throughout his life, no one had ever dared to speak to him in such a tone or look at him with such eyes. He had never imagined that one day, he would be pushed to such extremes.

However, he couldn't let things continue to unfold as they were.

As the head of the household, he couldn't back down at that moment. Even if he had to confront the situation, even if it meant being quarantined, he was determined first to dismiss the baseless accusations against him!

Kallum fell silent. On one hand, he was faced with responsibility; on the other, his kin. However, the most important thing to him was the woman before him!

If he died, even if he claimed that he had coerced Calista into everything, those narrow-minded enemies of hers would still not let her off the hook.

He couldn't figure out what Calista could possibly do while he was stuck in the quarantine area.

“That's why, before you take that final step, could you trust me just once?” Calista's eyes sparkled with an unusual light with a mysterious smile. “Don't forget, I still have an ace up my sleeve.”

Their conversations were held in secret. Meanwhile, those in the audience who wished ill fortune upon the Fairchild family had no intention of giving them time to strategize.

Aaron expressed his displeasure. “What on earth is the Fairchild family trying to do? Trapping us all here? If not, I'm leaving. I'm not as young as I used to be, and my resistance is not what it used to be. I certainly don't want to catch the K Virus and bring it home!”
