Her Rebirth of Retribution

Chapter 280 Truth Exposed

Kallum couldn't believe Calista was willing to do that for him.

"It's common knowledge that once infected with the K Virus, one would suffer from a persistent fever. This fact raised suspicion because that night, everyone who visited the Fairchild family returned home in good health. It was only after they left that symptoms of infection began to appear," said Calista. At that point, Harvey could no longer utter a word. It was Wayne who broke the silence in a dry tone. "Perhaps... Perhaps... They didn't contract it directly. It could be a chronic infection, so-"

Calista waved her hand as though accepting that ludicrous statement. "When I drank Kallum's blood earlier, would you consider that direct contact or a chronic infection?" She laughed provocatively.

Under her somewhat teasing gaze, Wayne gradually fell silent. Actions spoke louder than words! If Calista could drink Kallum's blood without any consequences, then that about proved whether Kallum was infected or not. After all, the most terrifying aspect of the K Virus was its infectiousness.

Seeing everyone fall silent, Calista finally dropped her disdain, her eyes sharpening! Wherever her gaze landed, everyone could only retreat!

"Is there anyone else who still doubts the Fairchild family? Or will you all say that I've already developed an antidote? Well, I'm flattered by your high regard for me. Rest assured, when I truly develop an antidote for the virus, I will announce it to everyone!" She asked with a biting sarcasm, "So, what's it going to be? Are you planning to leave or stick around to see if I'll come down with a fever later?" She even made a dark joke. "Maybe I'm just putting on a brave face right now."

Many flushed with embarrassment. Even those who tried to hide it couldn't mask their reactions as well as she did.

They had seen the video about the K Virus before. The fever experienced by those infected was a symbol of the virus invading their bodies. If there was no fever, then they weren't infected.

The principle of the K Virus antibody was at play there. If someone were mildly infected and received the antibody injection in time, they would be considered part of the fortunate one percent should their fever subside post-injection. If not, it indicated that the antibody injection had failed.

With a slight arch of her brow, Calista nonchalantly took her temperature using an ear thermometer amidst the gaze of the crowd. Without even a glance, she handed it over to Howard. Only then did Howard take it as if he was waking from a dream. He glanced at the displayed number, his expression complicated. "Ninety-eight degrees Fahrenheit. She doesn't have a fever."
