Chapter 214 Such A Risk

how could you take such a risk?"

Silas spoke at length, but seeing that Kallum remained unmoved, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh. "Kallum, I understand that whatever you do, you always have a plan. However, in times like these, it's better to be safe than sorry. With so many eyes on our family, Seeing the white hairs at Silas' temples, Kallum realized that he might have crossed the line. Unable to help himself, he patiently tried to calm things down. "Don't worry. When I returned, I had already reached an agreement with Nevio Bushwick. From now on, I can freely come and go from Corleon without taking any risks." Upon seeing that Silas still disagreed, Kallum furrowed his brows. "My life was saved by Callie. If anything happens to her, I won't be able to live. Therefore, I need to keep her close to feel at peace. Let's not discuss this anymore. I won't change my mind." Seeing his resolute attitude, Silas resignedly skipped over the topic. "By the way, you know about Sterling hosting a banquet in Horington, right? Over the past year, you've been constantly antagonizing the Wolford family. There's a chance they might be coming to seek revenge on you."

Silas didn't hold absolute power, so he knew very little about what Kallum had done. The fact that Callista had made a big profit in Corleon was only known to his trusted aides. As for Sterling, perhaps seeing that they had already handled the supplies and destroyed the evidence, telling the truth would not have any corroboration and would only stir up trouble for himself. Therefore, he didn't spread rumors after returning to his home country.

Kallum said, "I'll handle that matter myself. Since Sterling wants to play dirty, we can release the evidence we have. If he dared to collaborate with Uriah, he should be prepared for his reputation to be ruined."

Only then did Silas feel at ease. "All right, I'll stay out of this matter then."

As he spoke, a shadow passed over his eyes. "Take good care of yourself. I can tell that there seems to be something wrong with your health."

Kallum was taken aback, not expecting to be discovered so quickly.
