Her Rebirth of Retribution

Chapter 175 A Divergence Calista was oblivious to everything. After being held and cleaned up by someone, he was placed onto a plush, soft bed.

By the tshe woke up, Kallum had already had his stomach pumped, looking extremely pale. Seeing this, Calista immediately furrowed her brows.

"What happened?" Calista tried to recall, but she couldn't remember anything. Could it have been the alcohol? Seeing that she seemed to have forgotten, Kallum felt a twinge of regret. However, he still said, "It appears I can't drink alcohol now. It makesfeel uncomfortable." Calista was skeptical. She helped Kallum onto the bed, then turned to Quintus and the others nearby. "Is it really just because of the alcohol?" Quintus wouldn't dare to tell the truth. Under Calista's piercing gaze, he dryly said, "It's due to the alcohol. After Mr. Kallum fell ill, his body becsomewhat peculiar. Old Mr. Yancey just mentioned that Mr. Kallum is not allowed to drink alcohol in the future." Only then did Calista believe, regretting that she hadn't stopped him.

She then asked someone to keep an eye on Kallum while she went off to the research lab. Calista felt it was necessary to discuss the issue with others. A person who could hold their liquor becoming allergic to alcohol due to K Virus? At Fairchild Manor's annex, beneath the two-story building, a secret research lab had been established. Over the past year, Calista's intellectual prowess had won over the respect and admiration of the older experts. Hence, they were rather cordial toward her.

"Is Mr. Kallum all right now?" Bowen Haught asked as he approached. Approaching his sixties, he was the oldest and most experienced among them, excluding Shaun. His demeanor was quite amiable.

Calista gave a nod. "Old Mr. Yancey and the others handled it. I had a bit of a drink earlier and took a nap." Seemingly embarrassed about the mishap caused by drinking, Calista didn't elaborate further. They discussed why Kallum suddenly developed an alcohol allergy, and then the conversation shifted toward the progress of conquering the virus.

Aside from Calista, the sole female expert remarked, "Ms. Stafford, our research direction has been correct. Over the past year, we have made sprogress using your blood. However, we seem to have reached a bottleneck now. Without a live test subject, our future research will becvery challenging." Calista was well aware of this issue. However, bringing an infected person back to the country was no easy task. It had taken a great deal of effort to get Kallum back hsafely. Even if they did manage to bring someone back, Calista didn't have the ability to prolong another person's life. Doing so would severely harm her own health, making it not worth the effort.

"Regarding this issue, here's what I think..." Pointing to a spot on the world map on the wall, Calista said slowly, "Currently, the majority of K Virus patients are concentrated in the countries in the equatorial regions. Bringing them back involves a great deal of risk. Therefore, believe we should go there ourselves. After all, once infected, one's lifespan becomes extremely limited. To meet our research needs, we require a large number of patients, so we have no choice but to go to this place, Corleon." "No way! I'm not going!" Suddenly, a voice of opposition arose. It belonged to the youngest amongst the group of experts, a man in his early thirties named Wayne Leedon. He was typically a man of few words, and that was the first the had ever shown such fervor.

Calista stared at him, saying in a nonchalant tone, "Calm down. Since you're working for the Fairchild family, they'll ensure your safety. Those places aren't war zones. We're going there as a special support medical team, and we'll have the local government's support and protection." Wayne's face darkened. "Why would you go to such a dangerous place? You're well aware that K Virus doesn't just transmit through fluids. It could potentially spread through the respiratory system in an area crowded with infected individuals! We don't know enough about it yet. Are we supposed to just recklessly march toward our death?" Calista slightly raised an eyebrow. "I can assure you with certainty that the possibility of K Virus being transmitted through the respiratory tract is extremely slim. Not only can the inhibitor we've recently developed extend their lives by two months, but it can also completely eliminate this possibility. Besides, we have protective clothing. With a bit of caution, the scenayou're suggesting simply can't occur!" A sudden look of fear crossed Wayne's face when he saw her resolute attitude. "So, you're really going? Fine, you can go! I'm staying right here!" Gradually, Calista's expression turned frosty. "Only Professor Haught and Old Mr. Yancey are allowed to stay," she said. She didn't trust anyone else.

Sweeping her gaze over the crowd, Ret

each with their own unique expression, Calista slightly raised her voice to add, "Don't forget that you've signed the liability waiver forms! The om Fairchild family paida hefty sum for NO your services, not so you could hide behind the lines! Just imagine, if we succeed, your worth would increase a hundredfold! You'd be basking in glory! The Fairchild family will also do everything in their power to ensure your safety. Even on the off chance something happens, your family will be taken care of for life. What exactly are you afraid of?"

i yesful of Upon hearing that Bowen could stay, Wayne was immediately upset. His thin face was taut, his eyes full of resentment, "Why can he stay and I can't? We all signed the agreement to chere! Aren't you being too biased? We could also conquer the virus while being within the country. It's just a matter of time!" The content.

"Well, we're running out of time," Calista said calmly. "You may have already guessed that lysed unique method to prolong Kallum's life.

However, even with his robust physique, he won't withstand the daily torment of K Virus, and I can't let him die."
