Chapter 389 Let Me Guess

"Mr. Kallum, please... My dad just doesn't want to die. It's a basic human instinct. If he hadn't been certain that you would never hand over that person, he wouldn't have resorted to such desperate measures... There's no heart donor available now, and Ms. Stafford refuses to save him. His days are numbered. Please, Mr. Kallum, considering the good relations our families have maintained over the years, please forgive him this one time!" Kallum subtly raised an eyebrow.

"So, you intend to use this token in exchange for my promise not to retaliate against your family, is that correct?"

Horatio gritted his teeth and nodded. "I've stopped worrying about other things. I'll live as long as I can! I only hope that you can be generous and forgive the foolish things I did before!"

Kallum laughed. He narrowed his eyes as he observed the two of them.

"Such confidence..."

He shook his head, scoffing coldly, "No, such audacity! You threatened me, harmed me, and then expect me to forgive you based on past favors from a previous generation? Are you... perhaps a bit too oblivious?" Kallum's mocking words utterly humiliated Horatio.

"You want me to act as if nothing happened? Fine." Kallum chuckled lightly. "Drop dead in front of me! Then, I'll consider this matter as if it never occurred, how about that?"

"Mr. Kallum!" Horatio's son was about to speak, but he was silenced by Kallum's gaze.

"What's the difference, really?" Kallum said indifferently. "Aren't your days numbered anyway? Whether you die sooner or later, does it really matter?"

Horatio remained silent for a moment. He initially thought that if he knelt down and brought up Kallum's grandfather, there was a fifty percent chance that Kallum would spare him.

However, he had severely underestimated the importance of Calista in Kallum's heart. If it wasn't Calista who was harmed, perhaps Kallum, out of respect for his grandfather's token, might have shown mercy. The only consequence would have been a permanent severance of ties between the two families.
