Her Vengeful Rebirth

Chapter 223 Are You Truly Not Afraid

Just then, it seemed as though Kallum was jolted awake. His gaze toward Calista was fraught with complexity. Almost immediately, he pressed his body close to hers, subtly watching her face for any trace of emotion. A sudden, intense curiosity overtook him–he desperately wanted to know whether Calista was truly devoid of the fear that everyone else harbored against him.

“Did he faint?”

It was only then that the memory resurfaced among them–those infected with the notorious K Virus typically suffered from a rapid onset of high fever. This knowledge caused a collective, though silent, sigh of relief to pass through the group, as none exhibited any fever symptoms.

Calista, while supporting Kallum’s weight, raised her voice to catch the attention of Gunner and the others. In reality, her words were meant for everyone present.

“Don’t give up hope,” she said, “Quickly, take him back. We still have the antibodies; there’s still that slim one percent chance of survival!”

Gunner instantly grasped Calista’s subtle attempt at disguising Kallum’s illness. He nodded with urgency and moved swiftly to assist Calista in escorting Kallum away from the scene. Their departure was marked by a rushed urgency, as if the antibody’s administration was a matter of life or death.
