Her Vengeful Rebirth ( Calista ) Novel
Chapter 259

Chapter 259 Conducting An Investigation 

In an instant, Regina’s face turned deathly pale… 

The banquet was still ongoing. Unlike the relaxed demeanor of the others, Calista had already sensed the impending danger. Harvey was not a fool and might have guesserl something. And now, he was like a madman, driven to desperation. Therefore, it was inevitable that he would do something foolish. 

They knew they had to come up with a strategy, but with such little time, it was nearly impossible to anticipate the other party’s moves, let alone devise an effective response. 

No matter what, the situation turned out to be rather unfavorable for the Fairchild family. 

As the banquet was drawing to a close, Silas let out a soft sigh of relief, thinking that the evening would pass without any unexpected incidents. However, at that moment, Paul came running over, his face tense as he spoke. 

“Mr. Fairchild, there’s trouble. The police are here!” 

Not only had the police arrived, but they had come in considerable numbers. The Fairchild family, having been the top prestigious family for many years, was bound to have rivals. Usually, everyone coexisted peacefully, maintaining a facade of civility and harmony. However, when something happened, it would quickly escalate. 

After all, no one knew if Harvey, despite his current state, could convince anyone to stand up for him. 

Upon noticing Silas‘ slight panic, Kallum gave him a reassuring pat on his shoulder. He turned to Paul and said, “If we have guests, let them in. The Fairchild family has nothing to hide.” 

Not long after he finished speaking, a man dressed in a white suit entered, accompanied by over a dozen police officers. 

“Mr. Kallum, I hope you don’t mind my uninvited visit,” he said. 

Kallum scoffed, casting a glance at the police officers behind him, and sneered, “Of course not. Everyone! here is a guest that is welcomed by the Fairchild family.” 

The young man, Hendrick Murray, wore a look of regret. “It’s a shame that I’m not here as a guest today. 

but rather…” 

He surveyed the crowd present, his sharp eyes carrying a hint of amusement. 

“Someone reported an incident, and due to its significance, I have no choice but to personally investigate.” 

The words from Hendrick stirred varied reactions among the crowd. Everyone knew that Hendrick merely held a nominal military role and rarely showed up. Yet, he arrived today under the guise of conducting an investigation. It seemed that tonight, trouble was brewing again. 

Someone murmured. “The Murray family and the Fairchild family have always been at odds. I wonder what kind of leverage they’ve got on the Fairchild family today to be acting so brazenly.” 

“It’s hard to say, it’s not easy to get dirt on the Fairchild family. If it were that simple, the Murray family wouldn’t always be one step behind them. The Murray family has been gunning for the title of the most prestigious family in Chanaea for quite some time now.”

Chapter 259 Conducting An Investigation 

“However, when it comes to both looks and talents, Mr. Hendrick and Mr. Kallum are the same–they are both exceptional young men.” 

“Mr. Kallum is indeed superior. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be the unspoken rule of Mr. Hendrick never appearing in the same place as Mr. Kallum. Most of the time, Mr. Hendrick has been trying to avoid. getting upstaged by Mr. Kallum.” 

“However, judging by Mr. Hendrick’s confident demeanor tonight, could it be that he’s absolutely certain he can beat Mr. Kallum this time?” 

Despite the incessant gossip. None of them had considered that the investigation Hendrick spoke of was related to the K virus. Instead, they assumed that Hendrick had appeared after obtaining some other leverage. 

Kallum had a deep dislike for Hendrick, who had always liked to compete with him since they were kids. Kallum, however, had no interest in engaging in any such competition with the latter. 

“Since you’re not a guest, I’m not obliged to entertain you anymore. Paul, show them out!” 

“Wait!” Hendrick said with a smile. 

He scrutinized Kallum, finding it hard to believe what Harvey had claimed. Could it really be true that Kallum has been infected with the virus for a year now? 

Harvey speculated that Kallum could have been infected a year ago while he was in Lostaria and the latter’s life was only saved by a renowned doctor. This explained why Calista had taken the risk of going to Corleon to research the K virus, and why Kallum had suddenly become so low–key over the past year. Moreover, Hendrick had a hunch that Harvey’s guess might actually be true. Otherwise, it didn’t make sense for Kallum to have faked his public blood test that evening. 

“I came here because I received an anonymous tip. They said there’s someone here who has extensive knowledge about the K virus. People who have been treated by her, even if they’ve been infected, won’t die within a month. We naturally want to recruit such a talent and put her to use for the good of our nation.” 

Kallum hadn’t expected that Hendrick was secretly in touch with Harvey. Without a doubt, this was Harvey’s doing. A glint of murderous intent flashed through Kallum’s eyes. It seemed that merely crushing Harvey wasn’t enough; killing him would be the best solution. 

Hendrick’s words left everyone a bit confused. 

Why is he bringing up the K virus again? Hasn’t this matter been resolved already! Even if there were experts with extensive research on the K virus, there would be no need for Hendrick to personally come and invite them, right? 

“The person you’re looking for isn’t here. You should probably leave!” 

Kallum was well aware that though,the other party claimed to be seeking Calista, their true intention was to elevate Qingqing’s medical skills without any substantial evidence. Their aim was to cast doubt on him among the public and force him to retake the blood test. 

Hendrick is just as detestable as always! 

Hendrick chuckled lightly. “Is that so? Isn’t Calista that very person?” 

He has actually come looking for Calista! 

Chapter 259 Conducting An Investigation 

After he finished speaking, a man dressed in a military uniform emerged from behind him. The man’s demeanor was extremely respectful, yet his tone carried a hint of hostility. 

“Mr. Kallum, you may not recognize me, but we’ve actually crossed paths in Corleon. Thanks to Ms. Stafford’s medical team stationed there, the country now takes the K virus very seriously. Those patients, who were once expected to die within a month, have now survived for two months under Ms. Stafford’s
