Chapter 261 Turning On The Pressure

"All these are just your speculations, or are you just rambling nonsensically so that I have to take another blood test just to appease you? You're rather full of yourself, aren't you?"

Kallum's words were laced with mockery, carrying a bloodthirsty undertone. His eyes had become hard to read.

"So, if you can't take back your words up with evidence, I don't want to hear you spouting nonsense anymore."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left. Given his status, he really had no obligation to respond to Hendrick's accusations.

Upon seeing that Kallum was unfazed, Hendrick grew somewhat agitated.

Speaking at a slightly brisk pace, he said, "Was I merely speculating? But if I was wrong, why didn't you show yourself to anyone for a whole year? Why did you suddenly become interested in the K virus? Why did you gather a large group of experts and keep Calista captive?"

His questions grew increasingly pointed. "At the auction a year ago, Calista showed no affection toward you. Yet, against all odds, you began to relentlessly pursue her and even proposed to her publicly not too long ago. Who would believe there's no ulterior motive?" The more he spoke, the more others found the idea terrifying.

Indeed, a year ago, Kallum practically hated Calista. But suddenly, his attitude toward her drastically changed. Currently, he keeps her by his side all the time and even placed his trusted aide by Calista's father's side... It doesn't seem strange when thought of separately, but when you link them together, it certainly seems like there's more to the story!

Kallum halted his steps abruptly, then turned around with an abrupt snigger.

After all, they lived in Horington, which was by the sea, and sea transportation had always been one of the quickest ways to make money. It was just like how Harvey had risked everything, offering up five ports in exchange for the Murray family's support. This was his last-ditch effort. If the Murray family failed this time, Harvey, with what little he had left, would never be able to make a comeback. Therefore, the five ports were already extremely valuable.
