Her Rebirth of Retribution

Chapter 196 A Trap "What do I want? It's simple. I just want to ask you a few questions." Calista laughed in his ear. "What's the purpose of Sterling sending you here? To kill me?" The situation was pressing. Callahan took a moment to think before deciding to tell the harsh truth. "He wishes for you to contract the K Virus and die here." He had thought that this would be a simple task. A fierce glint flashed in Calista's eyes. "What a fitting end. On this, we truly see eye to eye." Eye to eye? Is this woman trying to make Sterling sick too? Upon thinking of Jarrett's sudden appearance, Callahan realized that Sterling was likely to fail this tbecause Calista was clearly prepared and deliberately waiting for him.

"All you're after is money, isn't it? How much did Sterling pay you for my life?" Callahan swallowed nervously. "A hundred million." Calista raised her eyebrows slightly. "It seems I'm quite valuable." She chuckled. "I've made a fortune recently. How about I give you a hundred million for a little white lie?" The rest of the mercenaries exchanged glances, unable to believe what they had just heard.

They had thought that spending a hundred million to harm a woman was already an exorbitant price. Yet, she was even more outrageous, offering them a hundred million to lie.

Calista released Callahan, yet Jarrett's gun remained pointed at him. Callahan's muscles were tense throughout his body, but due to the allure of Calista's proposition, he didn't make any rash moves.

"Are you being serious?" People like them, who lived on the edge, could do anything for money. As for the issue of credibility, if this woman in front of them succeeded, Sterling would meet his end right here. So, what credibility crisis could there possibly be? Even if Sterling were to win, they would still gain two hundred million. They could simply move to another country and start their lives anew.

"I don't usually lie," Calista said with a light laugh. "What I need you to do is quite simple. Just accompanyup the mountain, then tell Sterling that you followedto a cave on the mountain. You were discovered and had no choice but to shoot me. As for what he asks you to do next, just go along with it." Callahan thought it sounded easy. From her words, it appeared as though she wanted him to lure Sterling into a trap she had meticulously prepared.

After weighing the pros and cons in his mind, he exchanged a glance with his companion, then extended his hand toward Calista.

"All right, we're taking this deal." "We'll definitely work well together," Calista said, revealing a mysterious smile.

The very next morning, Sterling received a phone call that filled him with both joy and shock.

"She left with just two people and you followed her to a cave? What kind of cave is it?" Callahan found it odd that Sterling was so focused on the cave.

He had thought that Calista had mentioned the cave merely to lure Sterling into a trap, but it seemed there was more to the situation than met the eye.

Under Calista's intense gaze, he said, "It's a man-made cave. It's quite large. Do you needto go in and check it out?" "No!" A murderous intent flashed in Sterling's eyes. "Where is Calista?" Callahan glanced at Calista and said nonchalantly, "Her people discovered me, so I took her out, along with the two others by her side. I have no idea where the rest went. The army, however, is waiting in Jeahrone." He paused for a moment before speaking again. "It seems there's a signal jammer in this place. Other than the satellite phone, I can't use anything else to contact you. Otherwise, I could have taken a picture for you. Even though it's not the cause of death you wanted, you can't deduct my commission because of this." "All right, hold on. I'll be right there to check things out. I'm in Corleon, and I'm not far from you." Sterling hastily instructed his assistant to set up the satellite phone coordinates. He then said to Callahan nervously, "Stay put, dont move. Send someone outside to meet me. As long as I can confirm the deceased is Calista, I'll immediately transfer the remaining payment to you." "No way, once my people pick you up, you'll have to pay the remaining balance. We agreed on this, didn't we? It's just a woman. Do you really think I'd scam you?" Sterling agreed readily, "All right, make sure none of you make any rash moves. Calista has ten people by her side. If anyone else returns, don't hesitate to eliminate them. I'll take care of any additional costs."

"Consider it settled, then," Callahan said, then ended the call. He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Sterling was in a hurry. The Sterling he remembered was always cautious. This was the first the was so eager to cand inspect the results. Meanwhile, Sterling revealed a sinister smirk. "The remaining balance? Get it from hell!"

He furrowed his brows, taken aback that Calista had indeed gone after the treasure. It looks like she found it apead of time. Her subordinates must be preparing to transport the supplies. Thankfully, she is now out of the picture.

At that moment, Sterling did not consider whether this was a trap. After all, Calista had only taken ten people to Corleon, and leon, and Kallum did not go with them. He reckoned she certainly wouldn't collaborate with the local government if she wanted to monopolize the treasure Given the few people she had, they were no match for those he had sent out. There was no way she could possibly set him up.
