Chapter 188 A Business Proposition

Rupert, wise beyond his years, confidently stated, “I know where my dad usually goes. I’ll take you there.”

Calista nodded and took her leave after setting the time. Once outside, she turned to Derek and instructed, “Stay here. If anyone comes looking for trouble, chase them away immediately

“Got it.” Derek didn’t utter a single word of nonsense and just stayed right there.

Levi was an astute individual. Upon seeing Calista claiming to be visiting to inquire about the patients” conditions, yet asking all sorts of unrelated questions, he deduced that her stated reason for coming to Jeabron was a cover for other motives.

“You’re curious, aren’t you?” Calista asked him.

“Twouldn’t dare.” Levi was a rather slick individual, and he was in his late thirties or early forties. His curiosity had all but faded.

Calista chuckled. “Corleon and Lostaria share a border, right? If I’m not mistaken, a year ago after Kallum killed Uriah, he must have received a considerable amount of money, correct?”

Levi nodded. “That was Uriah’s hideout. He did receive a considerable sum

“Kallum fell ill because Uriah secretly researched the K Virus So, when you guys seized the supplies, did you replace anything related to the K Virus there?”

Levi was momentarily stunned before he shook his head, “No”

Calista narrowed her eyes and said, “Comdering a mad cultist whood risk the lives of two thousand people to feed a virus, do you think he would merely dabble with the K Virus? They’ve even extracted the Influenza virus from the K Virus So, can I suspect that he has more than one hideout, and that

I omewhere else, he’s stashed something related to the K Virus?

Levi immediately caught on his eyes slightly widened at that moment. In a hushed voice, he asked, “Are you suggesting that the first person to fall ill had inadvertendy visited the hideout left behind by Uriah and brought the K Virus to Jeahiron?”

Calista nodded. “Yes, I think that’s a pretty accurate guess. After all, a wise man always hay a plan B Considering this is a neighboring country of Lostarix, it’s impossible that Uriah wouldn’t have left himself an escape route

Levi looked at the calm Calista in shock. The more he thought about it, the more he felt it could be possible.

Before they arrived, everyone had perceived this place as a small city suddenly affected by the virus. But Calista had deduced such terrifying information from just a few clues. If all of this were true, it would make her incredibly formidable.

If it were just this bit of information, Calista wouldn’t have been so sure. But the moment she thought of how Sterling had made a fortune here in her past life and narrowly escaped a disaster, she felt that her speculation was already very close to the truth

After all Sterling had collaborated with Uriah in the past, so he must have received some information However, he wasn’t sure about the exact location, which was why he had been searching for a long time.

And die seizing the opportunity, had arrived here first. She would subtly leak some information to him,

dhe, luring him over When the time came, with her intentions against his obliviousness, it would be easy for her to present Sterling with a spectacular ending

Moreover, she would be able to amass a substantial fortune, making the journey utterly worthwhile.

After caretul consideration, Levi cautiously posed his question.

“Ms. Calista, should we send word back home? If this is true, it will be safer for us to start preparing early

“No. Things are still uncertain, so let’s not say anything about it for now. When the time comes, I’ll reach

out to them.”

Levi assumed that she was worried about the Fairchild family stealing her belongings. He reassured her. “Ms. Calista, there’s no need to worry. If this matter is indeed true, no one will dare to cover what’s yours. believe it will be more prudent to bring in some additional help..”

“No need for now.” Calista gave a smile. “I have my own plans.”

The following day, Jarrett was abruptly roused from his dreams by a phone call

“Calista, do you know what time it is His voice was somber, carrying the heavy tone of someone who had just woken up.

Calista gave a somewhat apologetic smile. Im sorry, I forgot about the time difference. But usually, when I seek you out, it’s for something beneficial. If you don’t show up, you might regret it.”

Jarrett was well aware that Calista wouldn’t call unless it was something important. This realization stung a little, making his tone increasingly sey. “I wornder what could possibly be so urgent, that yesaif call me at three in the morning”

Calista chuckled lightly. Tve got a business proposition for you. You re dealing arms on the sly, just like Sterling. Don’t you want to take him out and are the bon’s share?”

“Are you still half asleep! Taking out Sterling is easier said than done”

“There’s an opportunity right now. If you’re still not fully awake, I’ll wait until you are before we discuss it.”

“Hold on Jarrett found it odd. “Where’s Kallum! If you have something to do, why not look for him?”

The Fairchild family has always been legitimate arms dealers. Eliminating Sterling might be beneficial, but the profit isn’t significant. However, it’s a different story with you I genuinely want to bring this opportunity to you”

The more Jarrett listened, the more it didn’t seem right. “Where are you now?

“Corleon”

“You’re not planning to lure Sterling to Corleon just to settle a personal score and kill him, are you? Let me tell you, Sterling won’t fall for it”

Jarrett thought that Calista was being a bit fanciful

“Hmm, you’re half right. Of course, I have a way to reel him in. You’ll see when you get here”
