Chapter 389 Let Me Guess 

“Mr. Kallum, please… My dad just doesn’t want to die. It’s a basic human instinct. If he hadn’t been certain- that you would never hand over that person, he wouldn’t have resorted to such desperate measures… There’s no heart donor available now, and Ms. Stafford refuses to save him. His days are numbered. Please, Mr. Kallum, considering the good relations our families have maintained over the years, please forgive 

him this one time!” 

Kallum subtly raised an eyebrow, 

“So, you intend to use this token in exchange for my promise not to retaliate against your family, is that 

correct?” 

Horatio gritted his teeth and nodded. “I’ve stopped worrying about other things. I’ll live as long as I can! I only hope that you can be generous and forgive the foolish things I did before!” 

Kallum laughed. He narrowed his eyes as he observed the two of them

“Such confidence…” 

He shook his head, scoffing coldly, “No, such audacity! You threatened me, harmed me, and then expect me to forgive you based on past favors from a previous generation? Are you…. perhaps a bit too oblivious?” 

Kallum’s mocking words utterly humiliated Horatio. 

You want me to act as if nothing happened? Fine.” Kallum chuckled lightly. “Drop dead in front of me! Then, I’ll consider this matter as if it never occurred, how about that?” 

“Mr. Kallum!” Horatio’s son was about to speak, but he was silenced by Kallum’s gaze. 

“What’s the difference, really?” Kallum said indifferently. “Aren’t your days numbered anyway? Whether you die sooner or later, does it really matter?” 

Horatio remained silent for a moment. He initially thought that if he knelt down and brought up Kallum’s grandfather, there was a fifty percent chance that Kallum would spare him. 

However, he had severely underestimated the importance of Calista in Kallum’s heart. If it wasn’t Calista who was harmed, perhaps Kallum, out of respect for his grandfather’s token, might have shown mercy. The only consequence would have been a permanent severance of ties between the two families. 

Yet, Horatio, in his unfortunate wisdom, had decided to mess with Calista. To protect her, Kallum was even willing to risk hi 

own life, let alone face those who wished to harm her. 

Seeing that Horatio remained silent, Kallum tossed the iron bookmark onto the ground. “You might as well take this back. When you’re six feet under, you can use this to seek forgiveness from my grandfather, or even tattle on me if you wish. It’s up to you. Quintus, show our guest out.” 

“Yes, Mr. Kallum!” 

Quintus forcibly helped a pale–faced Horatio to his feet. Clutching the bookmark, Horatio exclaimed, “Why?” 

you 

He was getting somewhat agitated. “At the banquet, you were clearly all right, so why wouldn’t hand her over to me? It’s just a minor harm to her. It’s not like she’s going to die! Our families have been friends.

Kallum furrowed his brows. 

“Because she’s my woman!” 

Horatio couldn’t comprehend it. She’s just a woman, and there are plenty of them. At his age, there are still plenty of young girls throwing themselves at him. Why? I can’t accept this! 

Kallum had already lost interest in continuing the conversation with him. 

“Go back. I will contact you regarding what happened at Narrow Sky Gorge. We need to settle our scores.” 

Horatio clutched his chest, unable to even stay on his feet. 

The following day, the news that Horatio’s actions had resulted in Calista’s miscarriage spread like wildfire. igniting the fury of the Fairchild family. They demanded justice, and everyone in Horington was aware of 

  1. it. 

Moreover, there were rumors that Horatio had even sent people to hunt down Calista. The radio broadcast from that night was still available online, and everyone knew about Calista’s desperate plea for help to Kallum on the precarious ledge. 

Kallum had taken a daring leap from the helicopter, catching her hand just in the nick of time. 

Naturally, they were extremely dissatisfied with the Ingram family, who had caused them harm. Coupled with the continuous drop in their stock, the Ingram family faced an unprecedented crisis. 

A few days later, Calista came to know of these developments. She asked Kallum, “What did the Ingram family do? They couldn’t have just sat there doing nothing, right?” 

Kallum replied casually, “They’ve been wanting to split up their family, just like the Wolford family did back then. I didn’t respond.” 

Calista chuckled. “Misfortune shouldn’t fall on the innocent. If they really want to split up, then dealing with Horatio will suffice when the time comes. As for the others, let them be.” 

Kallum was somewhat disgruntled. “They sure are obedient! But I don’t plan on letting them off so easily.” 

“Why?” 

Kallum looked at her. “Because of you.” 

At that moment, Calista unwrapped the gauze, revealing the crisscrossing scars on her face. He tenderly traced them with his hand for a moment. 

“Anyone who hurts you deserves to die!” 

Calista cast him a meaningful glance. 

And what about you? Though you didn’t hurt me directly, you’ve indirectly caused me pain..” 

Kallum responded nonchalantly. “My life has been in your hands for a while now, hasn’t it?” 

Calista’s heart stirred. She briefly met his gaze before quickly averting her eyes. 

Kallum held her chin, forcing her to look at him.

“You’ve been avoiding my gaze lately.” Kallum revealed a mischievous smile. “Why?” 

Calista felt as if she had been scorched by his touch. She said with a straight face, “There’s no such thing!” 

“Let me guess.” Kallum smirked. “Is it because you’re not confident in your appearance, so you’re afraid to show me? I’ve heard that women always want to present their most beautiful side to the man they like…”
