Chapter 365 The Injection
The guests were all in a state of panic while some of the more influential individuals confronted Horatio.
“We came here to attend an engagement party, but we neither saw the couple nor heard announcement of the happy news. Mr. Ingram, what on earth are you trying to do?”

Someone helped Horatio to his feet, a wild glint flashing in the latter’s eyes. As he ignored everyone else, his gaze was locked solely on Kallum.
“Mr. Kallum, you’re really not going to agree to my request?”
He held a detection pen in his hand. “Strictly speaking, this matter hasn’t harmed you, has it? What’s stopping you from sharing the benefits? Is it that your lives and Calista’s are more valuable than mine? We can negotiate the benefits. You can have whatever you want!”
Kallum tightened his grip on Calista’s hand. “I have no clue what you’re talking about. You’ve gone mad!”
He had it all figured out. Callie’s experiment had reached its final stage. If discovered now, at most, he would be confined to the quarantine area for a while.
Despite the potential for significant backlash, his love for her was so profound that he would never let any harm come to her, not even a single hair on her head, due to external factors.
Upon seeing Kallum choosing to do it the hard way, Horatio let out a cold laugh. He made his way toward the pile of shattered glass, his gaze fixed on Kallum.
“Well, don’t blame me for not considering our past relationship!”
His actions were swift, unlike the fools like Harvey, who made a mess of things and ended up gaining nothing. He knew that to deal with Kallum, he needed to catch him off guard. If Kallum was willing to cooperate, that would be ideal. However, if he refused, he wouldn’t hesitate to escalate the matter, forcing that person to reveal themselves.
With everyone present watching. Horatio’s detection pen emitted a blinding red light the moment it touched Kallum’s blood.
There was someone present who happened to be from Horington Disease Control Center, and they were utterly shocked by what they saw.
“Mr. Kallum, you…”
“That’s right!” Horatio stood up straight. “As you all witnessed, Mr. Kallum was indeed infected with the K Virus, yet he managed to deceive us all!”
With a pained expression, he said, I never expected the results to turn out this way. The Fairchild family really had us fooled!”
With just one sentence, the entire room was in an uproar.
The past played out scene by scene, from the downfall of the Wolford family to the gloomy end of the Murray family. Everyone believed that Kallurn was unscathed, that it was all a misunderstanding. But then, an unexpected attack by Horatio shattered the lies of the Fairchild family, Could the truth really be like
this?

Chapter 365 The Injection
Francis Wilkins from the Disease Control Center furrowed his brows, stepping forward to say, “Mr. Kallum, your condition is quite risky. Please cooperate with us and undergo another examination.”

After he finished speaking, the person behind him took out a portable blood testing device they had with them and walked toward Kallum.
At this moment, Kallum resolutely placed Calista’s hand into Quintus. “Take good care of her.”
He turned his gaze toward Calista again. “I believe you’ll find success soon, so don’t worry about me. Just take care of yourself.”
Calista swiftly grabbed his hand, lowering her voice to ask, “Horatio’s target is me, isn’t it? He wants me to prolong his life, right?”
Kallum’s eyes slightly widened, then his brows furrowed. “No one should speak of this matter. Regardless of their actions, I will be fine. You mustn’t expose yourself at all costs.”
“If you were taken away, even if nothing happened to you, everything we’ve done before would be exposed as a deception. The Fairchild family wouldn’t be able to explain it to the rest of the country!”
“You don’t need to worry about this!” Kallum withdrew his hand. “Just focus on what you need to do.”
“Even if you do this, Kallum, I won’t acknowledge your kindness. Calista stared at him. “You might as well hand me over. With Old Mr. Yancey around, my presence or absence at this stage doesn’t matter…
Suddenly, Kallum covered her mouth, his gaze burning into hers.
Just when Calista thought he would retort or lecture her, his piercing gaze suddenly softened.
“Who can blame me for falling for you?”
Calista looked at him, inexplicably forgetting to breathe.
At that moment, Francis had already approached Kallum. Just as Kallum was about to say something. Calista suddenly collapsed, falling into Kallum’s arms, who quickly held onto her.
“Why…
His voice faltered, for something sharp had pierced his spine from behind, beneath his suit. Had Calista injected something into his back?
“Mr. Kallum, considering your health condition, would you cooperate with us for another examination?”
Before Kallum could respond, Calista slowly rose from his embrace.
“Getting checked out is fine, right? After all, we’ve been through this kind of baseless chatter several times before, haven’t we?”
Calista’s words subtly changed the expression on Horatio’s face. Could it be that Kallum still had an ace up
his sleeve?
Everyone looked perplexed. When Kallum’s blood was publicly tested and showed issues, Francis‘ re- examination seemed to be just a formality. But could there possibly be a different outcome?
Francis was soaked in sweat. He just realized that Horatio’s invitation to him, a mere official from the

Upon hearing Calista’s words, he quickly took out his blood testing device. It was something they always carried with them, one of the most accurate instruments for blood tests.
Just as Kallum was about to reach out his hand, Calista spoke up again.
“But I feel it’s utterly outrageous. For an entirely baseless matter, there are those with ill intentions who provoke again and again. Not only once or twice, but they persisted, repeatedly causing trouble…”
