Chapter 123 Obligated To Save Him 

“All right, now can you tell me how you fell ill?” she asked. 

86 

She had spent the entire day watching the news, and the fact that there wasn’t a single mention of the K Virus struck her as odd. 

Kallum’s gaze dimmed slightly, then he recounted the ins and outs of the entire situation in a somber voice

Calista frowned, her piercing gaze fixed on him. “Why didn’t you go straight to the military district to get an antibody injection?” 

Pressured by her gaze, Kallum was hesitant to speak, but since Calista already knew everything, there was no point in him keeping anything from her. 

Therefore, Kallum explained to her how his act of saving her delayed his injection of the antibody. 

Calista taken aback to hear that. “You’re saying… the injection was delayed because you brought help to save me? So, it was you who saved me and got the code to prevent the explosion?” 

Kallum looked away sheepishly. I didn’t hesitate one bit when saving her, so why am I feeling shy now? 

Feigning nonchalance, he spoke. “It’s not a big deal. The chance of survival after getting an antibody injection is only one percent. Even if I received the injection, I’d probably still die and also delay saving you, so I naturally chose you.” 

Calista’s heart skipped a beat as she regarded him with a complex expression. He still doesn’t know that if he had received the injection in time, he could have been one of the lucky few! For most people, even a slim chance of survivalone percent, or even one in a thousand or ten thousand–would be worth it. Their own life is always the priority. Yet, Kallum chose to rescue me without hesitation. He could have survived. 

Calista recalled her previous life when Kallum “fell ill” and recovered after two months. The stark contrast. between his previous fate and his current dying state was indeed because of her 

Hence, besides his worth, she had one other unavoidable reason to save him. He was in this state because of her, so she was obligated to do so. 

Calista shook her head. It seems we’re doomed to be entwined together. But this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. I’ll save his life, and he’ll lend me his strength. Though I’m not completely confident, I am arguably the most knowledgeable person on the K Virus. After all, I’ve been its human test subject for three long years. 

“I’m not confident in treating you,” Calista confessed honestly but added, “However, I do have a method that could prolong your life. The extent of its effectiveness depends on you. From now on, consider me your personal physician. Let’s work well together.” 

Wearing a complex expression, Kallum didn’t reach out to take her extended hand. “Since you’re so well- 

be close to me?” versed in the virus, you should know how perilous my illness is. Aren’t you afraid to 

I’m 

Calista smiled. “I’m in danger even without you. I have many enemies, yet very few support. Mr. Kallum… perhaps I’ll have to call you my brother in the future. Could you have a little faith in me? I assure you, far more competent than other doctors!”

Chapter 123 Obligated To Save Him 

Plus, it’s nice to have her by my side for the final journey of my life. 

Calista stayed the night at the Fairchild Manor, having taken 

another leave of absence from school.. Fortunately, her academic prowess had already surpassed the current standard; otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to afford neglecting her studies like this. 

Before he left, Kallum asked her if she wanted him to intervene regarding her kidnapping and the involvement of the Wolfords. 

Calista declined the offer. Every step she took was now on the right path. It was only natural for her to settle her own grudges. 

Kallum was fully entrusted to Calista’s care. After performing acupuncture on him, she asked, “How do you feel?” 

“I feel great.” Kallum nodded, his strikingly handsome yet pale face regaining some of its color. In truth, he didn’t feel any difference, but Calista’s presence made everything better. 

Calista pursed her lips while Wanda asked eagerly, “Callie, do you really have a way to extend Kallum’s lifespan?” 

د 

“Yes.” Calista nodded, sitting by Kallum’s bedside and explaining to Wanda, “The medical skills I’ve honed since childhood could generate a unique form of energy. By employing a special acupuncture technique, I could channel this energy into the patients and merge it with their bodies, thereby extending their lifespan. The tricky part, however, is that this process needs to be repeated every three days. In other words, as long as I’m alive, I can ensure to the best of my ability that Kallum won’t die. However, his body will continue to deteriorate as long as the virus lingers. My approach is merely a temporary solution, not a cure. In order to prevent him from turning into a zombie, or dying suddenly if the virus gets out of control, the only thing we can do is to find a cure within the time I buy for him.” 

Although Calista made it sound so simple, the amount of information in her words was immense. 

Both Wanda and Kallum were amazed that Calista’s acupuncture skills could extend a patient’s life and. alleviate the symptoms of the K Virus. 

Wanda didn’t dwell much on that and breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Calista’s confident demeanor. “I’m sure we can. As long as we have time, we’ll surely find a cure!”
