Chapter 417 I Am Doing This For Her

With a dismissive scoff, Kallum retorted, "So many lives at stake, do you really think killing her would solve everything?"

"I-I..." The officer stammered, stumbling back a step, completely overwhelmed by Kallum's imposing presence. He was so anxious that he couldn't find his words. What could he possibly do in this situation? Given the dire circumstances, he could only follow the usual protocol, resorting to damage control and suppression. What other options did he have?

"Kill her, and those people will surely die! But with her around, those people can definitely survive. It's just three more days. If anything goes wrong, my family will take full responsibility. It's a profitable deal-what are you hesitating for?"

Kallum's voice carried a hint of intimidation, his rising inflection bearing down on the plump military officer, causing his complexion to turn even paler. His mind became a tangled knot, uncertain of what to do next.

Due to Calista's intricate relationship with the Fairchild family, her causing such a commotion inevitably implicated them. It was undeniable that the Fairchilds suffered the most from this incident. However, instead of trying to limit the damage and distance himself from Calista, Kallum astonishingly chose to vouch for her.

Given that Kallum had pledged his guarantee, the chubby officer didn't dare to hinder him from leaving. Regardless of the methods used, it was only a matter of three days, a delay he could afford. If questioned by superiors, he would simply shift the blame onto the Fairchilds. After all, he couldn't forcibly restrain Kallum.

"In that case, I'll be patiently awaiting your good news..." The officer subtly shifted to one side, and the SWAT officers behind him simultaneously cleared a path.

Without any hesitation, Kallum personally escorted Calista away. As they passed by, they inevitably attracted the attention of the crowd.
