Chapter 432 More Than Meets The Eye

“What did Mr. President say?” Calista hit the nail on the head with her question.

Shaun replied. “Mr. President trusts us. He expressed deep remorse about this incident. Evert though he suppressed the news immediately, the word still managed to get out. I suspect it’s the work of people from the other major families or possibly even a foreign conspiracy.”

Calista gave a slight nod. “Who was it that died? Did Mr. President mention how that person passed away?”

Shaun responded, “The cause of death was asphyxiation, but there are just too many factors that could lead to such a demise.”

Calista lowered her head, choosing to remain silent.

While Shaun was lending a hand, he seemed a bit distracted. Seeing that Calista was still working methodically, neither speeding up nor slowing down, he finally couldn’t help but speak up. “Ms. Calista, aren’t you worried? There are many people outside pressuring Mr. Kallum to hand you over. Some are even threatening to burn you alive in public!”

Unable to hold back, Calista asked, “Like they did when they burned witches at the stake?”

“Ms. Calista!” Shaun’s tone intensified. “Why aren’t you the least bit worried?”

“Is there any use in worrying?” Calista asked as she gently poured one vial of medicine into another of a different color, waiting for its reaction to change. Didn’t you mention that Kallum has already returned to take care of things?”

“You can’t just not worry at all. We’re talking about a matter of life and death here…”

When Calista saw the medicine gradually fuse together, a smile finally graced her face. “He said it himself.

th him around, he told me not to worry. So, what’s there for me to worry about?”

Suddenly, Shaun fell silent. Based on his understanding of Calista, he was well aware that this was the first time she had trusted someone so wholeheartedly, Mr. Kallum, have you finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel? Let’s hope we can get through this crisis without a hitch.

With that thought, Shaun quickly composed himself and hastened his actions.

After rushing back at breakneck speed, Kallum found the Fairchild Manor besieged by thousands of people.

Most of them were visibly outraged. Especially after the appearance of Kallum, they began to shout uncontrollably.

“Liar! Hand over Calista now! We won’t fall for your lies anymore! Hand her over!”

“If you don’t hand her over within ten minutes, we’ll set this place on fire!”

In the past, their innate reverenice for the privileged as commoners would have prevented them from suggesting burning that place, how. But now, their emotions were running high. The anger from being deceived, coupled with the pain their loved ones were enduring, made them bold enough to consider such

crowd.

Surrounded and pointed at by a group of bodyguards clad in black, the crowd was undoubtedly not going to take it lying down.

“Charge! They definitely won’t dare to shoot!”

Someone attempted to stir up the crowd, but no sooner had the words left his mouth than a bullet. whizzed past his feet. His excited expression froze on his face, transforming into a comical one within a second. Seeing that the Fairchild family subordinates were indeed bold enough to fire a gun, the crowd hesitated to act for a moment.

Someone shouted angrily, “If you’re so capable, lock us all up. Otherwise, I’ll just end my life right here and let the whole nation witness the tyranny of the Fairchild family!”

“They actually have guns! How are ordinary folks supposed to live? Do they think they’re so impressive just because they’re rich and powerful?”

“Hand over Calista, or I’ll end my life right here! My son is gone. I have no desire to live anymore.”

More and more among the crowd expressed similar sentiments. With a stoic expression, Kallum stood rooted to his spot, unfazed.

Seeing that everyone was intimated, he then turned to Quintus and said, “Bring over the screen and the projector.”

Subsequently, he shared the latest news he had received with the commoners gathered before him.

“Who is a relative of Rhonda Chapman?” Kallum’s sudden question prompted those who were pointed with the muzzles of the guns to be slightly discontented.

-What are you planning to do now? Just because you’re rich and powerful, do you think you can toy with

cople’s lives?”

With patience, Kallum responded, “Didn’t you all come here because someone had passed away? Who is Rhonda Chapman’s family member?”

The crowd wondered. So, the one who died was a person named Rhonda Chapman?

Everyone exchanged glances. When Kallum announced the names of the deceased, there was an undeniable collective sense of relief. The crowd was grateful the deceased wasn’t someone from their own family.

The crowd fell silent, all searching for Rhonda’s family member. After all, it was a matter of life and death for their loved one. They couldn’t possibly not show up.

However, it was only after a long while that a shrill female voice finally broke the silence. “What are you trying to do? Isn’t it enough that you’ve already caused Rhonda’s death? What more do you want from us? I’m telling you, even if we die, we won’t make things easy for you!”

Her tone was fitting for a victim’s family member, but the fact that she only showed herself after such a long time seemed a bit odd.

Upon realizing that Kallum knew their names, the two individuals couldn’t help but display a hint of panic on their faces.

Maisie, a slender woman with a dark complexion, shricked, “So what? What are you trying to do?”

A hint of mockery surfaced on Kallum’s face. “I’m just amazed. You guys are quite capable and very daring. It seems there’s nothing you wouldn’t dare to do.”

The scene gradually quieted down, leaving everyone puzzled by Kallum’s intentions. It was one thing for Kallum not to treat Rhonda’s parents with gentleness following her death, but his confrontational tone was entirely unexpected. The crowd wondered if there could be more to this situation than meets the eye.
