Her Rebirth of Retribution novel Chapter 189

Calista was about to hang up the phone when Jarrett's voice rang out.

“Wait, one last question.”

“Hmm?”

“Is Kallum around?”

Calista chuckled. “No, he's not.”

“All right, I'm on my way now.”

After hanging up the phone, Calista shook her head with a smile. She felt as if she was having a secret affair.

She put away the phone and stepped outside. Her crew was all set and ready to go. These were her people, not a single soldier among them. They were headed for a vast mountainous area and she wasn't certain they'd find what they were looking for on the first try. So, she was relatively relaxed about it.

Without asking any questions, Bowen, under the protection of a group of soldiers, began interviewing each individual infected with the K Virus. With subjects for his study, the progress of his research could quickly advance.

The remaining soldiers were assigned to clean up an abandoned hospital, which was slated to become a research station. Under Calista's guidance, everything proceeded in an orderly manner.

Meanwhile, Kallum, clutching his phone, was in a terribly sour mood.

Several days had passed, yet he hadn't received a single phone call. D*mn that woman! She lied about wanting to cure me and be with me!

“Mr. Kallum, are you sure about this? If Mrs. Fairchild were to have a heart attack...” Ryder held his phone, clearly conflicted.

Kallum shot him a glance. “All you needed to do is call Air Defense Command.”

At that moment, Quintus walked in. “Mr. Kallum, there's movement from the Wolford family.”

Over the past year, Kallum had been periodically causing trouble for the Wolford family. Calista had asked him to hold off for a while, so he had simply kept a close eye on them through his informants.

Gradually, Kallum discovered something very peculiar.

The Wolford family must be in dire need of money, and they probably harbored a deep resentment toward him. Yet, Sterling did not choose to form another marriage alliance, nor did he carry out any form of revenge. Kallum didn't believe that the Wolford family had changed their nature. Their actions seemed as if they were searching for something.

And so, Kallum had people keep a close watch. As soon as they had a clear objective, he would be the first to know.

Now, Sterling had finally made a move.

“What did he do?” Kallum asked.
