“I don’t know! the Fairchild family has shut themselves away from visitors. Aside from Mirabelle, no one else has seen Kallum himself.”

He bit out the name “Mirabelle” forcefully. In truth, he had no idea about the specifics of Kallum’s condition, but the fact that Kallum didn’t even go to the hospital indicated that his injuries weren’t serious.
As expected, even Jarrettwas unaware. Coupled with the fact that the Fairchild family rejected visitors and the number of servants in the house dwindled, the answer became increasingly clear–Kallum had contracted a perilous illness, which was likely contagious.
Moreover, the fact that he put on such a performance in front of her clearly indicated that his condition might be incurable.
He had suddenly returned from Lostaria, a place notorious for its many infectious diseases. The most prevalent among them had been influenza T, which had already been eradicated. However, there was still another virus, a dangerous and highly contagious disease for which there was no known cure–the K Virus.
So it’s the Kirus?
Calista felt like laughing but couldn’t bring herself to. Kallum had been fine in her previous life and had never once been diagnosed with the K Virus. How could this happen?
Calista couldn’t help but recall the few months when Kallum was injured in her previous life. He wasn’t allowed any visitors then either. Perhaps Kallum had also fallen ill in her previous life, but he had timely received an antibody injection, making him one of the few lucky ones to survive. That was why he had suddenly returned to the country, spending those few months recuperating at home.
But why did he manage to survive in the previous life but not in this one? Did my presence trigger a butterfly effect?
Calista had to admit that after moving on, she had become much more perceptive. She could easily analyze the details of situations, and her deductions were almost always accurate.
With that thought in mind, she grew restless and sat up.
For the first time since her rebirth, a sense of bewilderment filled her eyes. I had been tormented by the K Virus for several years in my previous life. And in this life, it’s Kallum’s turn?
Jarrett, if someone was trapped because of you, and you were probably the only one in the world who could save them, would you?” she asked.
At first, Jarrett assumed that Calista was referring to Kallum. However, he quickly dismissed this idea, considering there was hardly any issue Calista could resolve that the Fairchild family couldn’t. His mood. improved as he thought of that. He was more than willing to answer that question as long as it wasn’t about
Kallum.
“It depends on whether this person is worth it or not. He might’ve been trapped because of you, but it’s not like you asked him to do so. No one’s forced to do what they don’t want to, right? Plus, if saving him was going to be a hassle, you should naturally consider his worth.” Jarrett’s eyes beneath his glasses held a ruthless, icy glint as his lips curved into a cold smirk.
Calista nodded in agreement. “Yes. His worth.”

lose a part of herself. However, after that faint affection had been shattered, her resolve was strengthened, and she was aware of her current situation.
She had always been hesitant to reveal her true abilities because she didn’t have a powerful backing. If she were to take action, she could end up in the same predicament as her previous life. Jarrett’s capabilities- were sufficient within the country, but still slightly lacking.
And Kallum is indeed… a suitable choice.
She had the means to prolong his life. Moreover, it took the research center over three painstaking years to develop the K Virus antiserum using her blood in her previous life. Therefore, she was the only person in this world who could save Kallum.
This time around, she wasn’t going to save him for nothing. After all, the thumb ring was already smashed, and her status as a fiancée was nothing more than a title now. The deal they had discussed before could finally come into play.
In a fleeting moment, a flurry of thoughts raced through Calista’s mind. She could directly negotiate with Silas, becoming the adopted daughter of the Fairchild family. Since Kallum believed that his end was near, he would certainly not refuse in order to leave her with a way out.
Once she had a powerful backing, not only could she exact revenge with her own capabilities, but also alleviate the current dangerous situation.
Looks like I’m still sticking to my original plan. The only difference is that this time, I will no longer waver. My nemesis is still alive. I can’t afford to entertain irrelevant thoughts.
Calista flashed a slight smile, an unwavering determination discernible in her gaze.
Jarrett was perplexed when he saw his response bringing a smile to Calista’s face. Instead of explaining. Calista simply said, “It’s getting late. Let’s prioritize treating Ambrose first. With me around, he’ll recover in no time.”
Jarrett had wanted to stop Calista because she hadn’t fully rested yet. However, seeing that she was in at good mood and her fever had subsided, he decided not to voice his concerns. Instead, he brought her to treat Ambrose’s illness.
Upon hearing the news of Kallum’s critical illness, Silas and Wanda, who were overseas, rushed back.
Kallum had already made it through the critical stage and was now recuperating.
However, the recent episode had drastically shortened Kallum’s lifespan, which was originally expected to last another month. Shaun didn’t dare to lie. He told Silas the truth–Kallum probably had less than a week to live.
“Kallum!” Upon hearing this, Wanda broke down in tears immediately. She and Silas were deeply in love, and Kallum was their only son. The fact that they had to lose their child was unacceptable to her.
112” Silas roared.
“What happened? Kallum was perfectly fine. How did he suddenly fall ill?” Silas
