Chapter 218 At The Banquet

Calista shook her head. “Sterling clearly isn’t in his right mind right now. Even if your men are highly skilled, I fear they wouldn’t be able to save my father before Sterling acts. Now, we might as well go and seet for ourselves. I’m quite curious about how he managed to return from Corleon!”

She paused for a moment, turning her gaze toward Kallum. “I’m sorry for dragging you into this.”

Kallum wasn’t fit enough to be out and about given his current circumstances, which was why Calista felt apologetic.

With a raised eyebrow and a smug smile, Kallum suggested, “If you’re truly sorry, how about giving me a kiss?”

Calista chuckled, but deep down, she was still filled with worry. In this life, though she never planned on being a good daughter, she didn’t want Benedict to just die like that. His previous life had been filled with enough sorrow. This life, he deserved a better ending.

“Don’t worry.” Seeing her downcast, Kallum comforted her, his tone turning dangerous. “It’s good to comer him, so he can’t escape. Rest assured, after tonight, there won’t be anyone named Sterling in this world anymore. Your father will be safe.”

That night, at Sterling’s suburban villa.

A procession of luxury cars rolled in one after the other. As the occupants stepped out, they exchanged puzzled glances, clueless about what was happening.

Originally, they had decided not to associate with Sterling. However, in the afternoon, Sterling unexpectedly called them, declaring his intention to reconcile with Kallum. He even assured them that Kallum would definitely come that evening.

Carrying this peculiar sentiment, they all arrived without prior arrangement. In the world of business, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. Even if the Wolfords and the Fairchilds had made amends, it wouldn’t be anything out of the ordinary. They had been invited over and over again, with insistence that they must come. This made their feelings somewhat delicate.
