Her Rebirth of Retribution novel Chapter 182

Calista looked exasperated. “He didn't agree at first, but I spent the entire night persuading him.”

As she spoke, she hissed lightly, drawing attention to her swollen lips. The others exchanged knowing looks, suddenly understanding how Calista had managed to “persuade” Kallum. After all, what man could resist the requests of the woman he loved?

However, Quintus remained skeptical. He couldn't believe that Kallum would abandon his principles over a few kisses.

Calista added, “However, he's really worried about me. Quintus, can you find nine more Parker Guards to accompany us? Otherwise, he definitely won't be at ease.”

The task immediately disrupted Quintus' train of thought. He instinctively acknowledged it and turned around to select capable people for the job.

With everyone assigned with tasks, most of the people left. Only Shaun and Gunner were left.

“Did you sedate Mr. Kallum?” Shaun stroked his small beard, having detected the scent of the sleeping drug.

“As expected, I can't keep it from you,” Calista confessed openly. She turned to Gunner and asked, “Have you figured it out too?”

Gunner scoffed. He was not as easily fooled as Quintus.

Calista rubbed her temples and said, “I had no other choice. The longer we delay, the worse it is for us. Once I've made a decision, I have to see it through, even if he tries to stop me.”

“Even if you decide to leave, Mr. Kallum will surely come looking for you,” Gunner pointed out coldly.

Calista flashed a malicious smile at Gunner. “That's exactly why I'm leaving you behind. Find Silas, then spread some rumors at the customs. With Silas around and the country's stringent measures against K Virus, Kallum won't be able to leave the country!”

Seeing that she had thought of everything, Shaun couldn't help but ask, “What about Mr. Kallum's health...”

“I'll leave that in your hands.” Calista nodded at Shaun, then turned to Gunner. “Aren't you leaving yet?”

Gunner snorted and replied, “If it weren't for the fact that you're doing this for Mr. Kallum's sake, I wouldn't listen to you at all!”

After he finished speaking, he hastily left, leaving only Shaun behind.

“What should I do?” Shaun asked in a hushed tone.

“It's not complicated,” Calista said as she rose to her feet and lay Kallum flat. “I'll give you a prescription for a medicinal bath. It's something I used when I was younger, though I've made some improvements to it. When I'm not here, you'll need to monitor Kallum and ensure that he soaks in it for an hour each day. As for the other treatments, you're already familiar with them, so I won't go into detail. Can you do me a favor and keep watch at the door for now?”

Shaun nodded, aware that Calista had her own secrets. “All right, be careful.”

After saying that, he left.
