Her Rebirth of Retribution

Chapter 123 Obligated To Save Him

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

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 survival-one 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.
