Chapter 185 Ghost Town
But what he didn’t expect was that it was Wanda who came.
As soon as Wanda reached the door, she overheard Kallum mentioning his plans to go to Corleon. She almost lost her breath. “Kallum, open the door. You’re going to Corleon? Are you trying to give me a heart attack or what?”
Kallum’s smile froze momentarily, then his teeth gritted in frustration. Calliet
Upon their arrival, Calista and her group were warmly received by the local government. Among them, Bowen stepped forward to represent their party,
“Thank you for the assistance you’ve given our country. The small city is fraught with danger, so I’ll dispatch two hundred men to accompany you. They’re all exceptional soldiers, committed to ensuring your safety. Bowen expressed his gratitude with a smile. “Do you happen to know the current state of affairs in Jeahron?”
The tan–skinned man who received them let out a sigh. “People are dying every day. Since the first patient was identified in this city, over a thousand have perished. Around three hundred infected with the virus are still alive, but that number is still rising… If you’re going in, you must be extremely cautious. I hope you can bring some good news.
Bowen hastily assured, “Absolutely, we’re here specifically to conquer the virus.”“
The two individuals exchanged a few pleasantries when suddenly, the other party inquired, “There are
there? cases of the K Virus in Corleon and not just in Jeahron. May I ask, why are you so determined to go You should know that it’s a rather remote place.”
Bowen glanced at Calista. Of course, he couldn’t reveal that Calista had specifically requested to go to that place. All he said was, “It’s close to the rainforest, which might be beneficial to our research.”
Calista was uninterested in their conversation. She was engrossed in her research. Jeahron was originally an ordinary small city until one day, a man suddenly died on the street, spewing blood. The city was then invaded by a virus named K Virus, and within a mere two months, a thousand people had perished. This was the destination of their journey, and there was a reason why she had chosen this place. It was necessary to understand it before going there.
Levi hovered around Calista, eager to please her. The last time he saw her, his poor attitude had earned him a punishment from Kallum. This time, he was determined to do well.
“Ms. Calista, I’ve just received news that because Mrs. Fairchild returned in time, Mr. Kallum should be preoccupied for now
Calista nodded. Everyone knew that Kallum would listen to no one, but Wanda, who suffered from a heart. condition. He would at least spare a moment to listen to what she had to say.
“For now, none of you are allowed to relay any messages to Kallum. Hand over all of your communication
devices to me.”
“Yes, Ms. Calista,” Levi replied with utmost respect. It was common knowledge that Calista was Kallum’s prized treasure. Offending anyone was tolerable, but not her.
After Levi left, Calista continued to sit in the car, studying the map. She knew all too well that Wanda wouldn’t b he shle in eton Kallum but if de could de{ him for a while that would be beneficial After all
Money could buy life, and it had once helped him survive a crisis, elevating his status even higher. It had even transformed Quincy into a top socialite.
