Chapter 256 I Will Definitely Cure You

"Even at this point, you're still playing these little games. I'm not sure whether to call you clever or shameless. Like mother, like daughter, I suppose?" After finishing her statement, Calista disregarded the ugly expression on Quincy's face and turned to leave.

A moment later, the frantic shouts of Quincy echoed from behind.

"Ahhh! Calista! You'll meet a terrible end! You're surely destined for a dreadful fate!"

Calista snorted dismissively. She was uncertain about her own fate, but one thing was clear - the current Quincy was now at her mercy, like a toy in her hand.

After taking down Harvey, Calista enjoyed a few comfortable days at home. A month flew by in the blink of an eye, and it was time for Kallum to step out and meet people again.

"Have you heard? The Fairchild family is holding a banquet to celebrate Mr. Kallum's recovery from a severe illness!"

A reporter inquired to a colleague, "Did you get an invite? This time, Mr. Kallum is determined to prove his health, so he's bound to invite some reporters!"

The other person chuckled and replied, "Let's not kid ourselves. The ones who will get to interview him are definitely some big shots!"

"That's such a shame. No reporter has ever managed to get inside Fairchild Manor. I'd love to see what a top tycoon's mansion looks like."

On the day of the banquet, Fairchild Manor was flooded with guests. Unlike the previous family banquet, they had only invited those close to them this time. The turnout was large, with people from all walks of life. They had even extended an invitation to their rivals. After all, the banquet was held to demonstrate Kallum's well-being. Inviting them now was better than dealing with their behind-the-scenes manipulations later.
