Chapter 221 The Special Infected
“Don’t worry,” he reassured. “I’m not carrying anything on me, not even a gun. Come here, I just want to talk.”
His appearance at that moment was strikingly similar to the first time they met, when he had an air of assured victory about him. He curled his lips into a smile and spoke.
“Didn’t you say you were fascinated by the K Virus? Don’t you want to know how I managed to pass through that lab without getting infected?”
A glimmer sparked in Calista’s eyes. Seeing that Sterling didn’t appear to be hiding anything, she began to hesitate.
“Two.”
Seeing that Calista wanted to go, Kallum held on to her tightly. He was certain that Sterling had no good intentions, and he couldn’t allow Calista to take risks under his watch.
Meanwhile, Sterling was already running out of patience.
“Three!”
“I’m coming over.”
Calista glanced back at Kallum. Seeing that he was still holding on to her, she tiptoed and whispered into his ear.
“The reason I returned, besides my father, was primarily to understand why he wasn’t infected. Perhaps he is the key to conquering the virus? Your body is deteriorating by the day, don’t think I’m unaware of it. I absolutely must go!”
Kallum felt as if his heart was being squeezed, his eyes widening in shock.
Calista managed to break free from his grasp. Instinctively, he reached out to grab Calista’s clothes but eventually let go.
Because Calista was glaring at him, she really had to go!
Kallum tasted bitterness in his mouth, surprised that despite his seamless facade, Calista had still seen through him. Moreover, she was willing to take risks for him without a hint of hesitation. With that thought in mind, an overwhelming sweetness filled his heart. His Callie, always so stubborn yet soft- hearted, never vocalizing her intentions, yet acting on them all the same.
Kallum struggled to describe his emotions at that moment. In the end, he could only utter two words.
“Be careful.”
His gaze hardened, making a silent vow. No matter what, he would not let Calista get hurt, even if it cost him his life!
Calista nodded, moving toward Sterling. In a flash, a silver needle as thin as a hair strand appeared at her
rups.

Chapter 221 The Special Infected
His gaze lingered on Calista’s neck with a certain intensity. Her scent will surely be far more enticing than the doctor’s that day.
It certainly will be!
Choosing Calisca over Kallum had indeed given Sterling pause. He knew full well that Kallum’s skills far surpassed his own by a significant margin. However, Calista was a different matter. While she possessed. some skills, he had managed to subdue her from their very first encounter, and he believed he could still do so.
Before his death, he felt it was worth it to bring down an enemy
with him
Sterling held the remote, but he didn’t hand it over to her right away. Instead, he smiled and said, “Before I give this to you. I want to tell you a secret about the K Virus. Are you interested?”
Calista’s heart skipped a beat, her gaze burning intensely as she stared at him. When their eyes met, it felt as if blades and arrows were clashing in battle.
Calista maintained a composed tone, even though her heart was clamoring to uncover the secret. However, she was dealing with a madman, a person who had lost all reason, and she couldn’t afford to show even a hint of fear!
“All right, I’ll tell you.”
He then watched as Sterling brought his lips to Calista’s cars.
