Her Rebirth of Retribution

Chapter 230 I Wonder What They Have Planned

"So, how do you justify the wound on your hand? The lengths your family has gone to just to obtain my blood sample are truly remarkable," Kallum stated, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

Hearing these accusatory words, Charlene was overwhelmed with a mix of guilt and fear. Cold sweat beaded on her forehead, and she was unsure if it was due to the pain from her arm or the sheer panic gripping her heart. She gazed at Kallum, her eyes wide with turmoil, and her body ceased struggling; instead, she began to sob uncontrollably, her voice tinged with desperation.

"M-Mr. Kallum, please, I beg you to forgive me! I didn't intend for any of this to happen! I'm your cousin! It was merely out of curiosity, nothing more. It wasn't a plan orchestrated by my family!"

Calista observed the unfolding scene with a bored expression, eventually tossing the bag aside and releasing Charlene.

Maybe it was the residue of the fear she had instilled, but as soon as Calista let go, Charlene began to slump against the corridor wall, slowly sliding down until she was forced to squat to keep from collapsing entirely.

With a dismissive wave of his hand, Kallum summoned Ryder, who seemed to materialize from thin air. "Throw her out, and make sure to remove everyone who accompanied her as well," he commanded.

"Mr. Kallum!" Charlene's plea was filled with desperation as tears streamed down her face. "Please, don't do this, Mr. Kallum! We are family!" The thought of her parents also being expelled filled her with dread; the punishment she would face at home would be severe. "I have no need for relatives who conspire against me," Kallum declared coldly as he continued walking away with Calista, who seemed to relish the drama.

"I had a hunch tonight's banquet would be quite entertaining," Calista remarked with a mischievous smile. "I'm curious about what other surprises they might have planned for you."

Kallum's expression grew serious. "Tonight is probably just a preliminary test. Knowing the nature of these people, the real spectacle is likely still to come."
