Her Rebirth of Retribution novel Chapter 235

With a mischievous smile, Calista sat across from Sterling, looking down at the latter, who was miserably curled up on the carpet, bound from head to toe.

“Calista... you want to kill me?” Sterling glared at her. “Don't bother wasting your energy. A few days ago, government officials said they were going to take me away for research. You didn't know that, did you? Most people infected with the K Virus die within a month, but not me. I can survive! As long as I keep nourishing myself, I can live on. If you dare kill me, you'll face the wrath of the government!”

Calista chuckled at his naivety. “In reality, I was the one who wanted to take you away for research. The government was just the front. They don't care about you at all, just like they don't believe that I'll conquer the K Virus just by acquiring you.”

A chill ran down Sterling's spine, and he glanced at Calista with a fearful expression. “W-What are you planning to do to me?” he asked.

“What am I planning to do?” Calista asked, her legs crossed as she leaned back on the couch, a thoughtful expression on her face. “I was originally thinking of setting up a research center, and then you'd become my first human test subject. It would make it easier for me to study the K Virus.”

Upon hearing that Calista did not intend to kill him, Sterling breathed a sigh of relief. However, the very next moment, Calista's words plunged him into despair.

“Do you think being a test subject is better than being dead?” she asked.

Indeed, that was what Sterling thought. If the experiment was successful, I'd still have a slim chance of survival, right?

Calista laughed wickedly, brutally shattering his hopes.

“Compared to the average patient, your greatest advantage is that you don't experience pain, right? No matter how well a person can bear pain, their subtle expressions and movements will reveal it. The K Virus is known to cause unbearable agony, yet I haven't seen a trace of suffering in you.”

Calista exposed him, “No matter how well a person can bear pain, their subtle expressions and movements will reveal it. The K Virus is known to cause unbearable agony, yet I haven't seen a trace of suffering in you.”
