Chapter 219 Being A Clown

Noticing the crowd’s gaze on her, Calista felt a sense of bewilderment. Could it be that Sterling had: obtained some sort of evidence and, in the lace of death, wished to drag her down with him, hence the reason for this banquet?

But what difference would his evidence make? Even if she were to hand the money over, it wouldn’t benefit him. Regardless of the worst

outcome, she would remain unscathed. So, what was Sterling’s real. intention?

She scoffed, “I have no idea what you’re talking about. Uriah? I’ve never even heard of his name.”

Inside the banquet hall, Calista and Sterling confronted each other, their auras starkly contrasting. One emanated icy reserve, while the other exuded a sister and mysterious presence.

Sterling’s lips curled into a sardonic smile. “Let’s dispense with the pleasantries. I once collaborated with Uriah, supplying him with a considerable arsenal. Yet, in an hour’s time, the police will arrive to apprehend me. I can’t help but feel aggrieved. I worked alongside Uriah, only to face arrest now. Meanwhile, there are others who engaged in dealings with him, even pocketed a hefty sum from his coffers. Why haven’t their misdeeds been brought to light?”

The insinuations in Sterling’s words twisted Calista’s expression sour. “Me? Collaborating with Uriah? If it weren’t for your involvement, orchestrating my capture by Uriah, I’d never have crossed paths with him. Or are you implying that since you’re headed for a jail cell, this is your final act of defiance before confinement, dragging innocent bystanders into your downfall?”
