Chapter 26 Billion Dollar Deal
Then you have to be careful.â
Calista looked down and hid her face in the dark, âItâs very dangerous to be interested in a woman. I can tell you now that if you fall for me, it wonât be a pleasant experience.â
Kallum couldnât help but laugh, âYou seem very confident of yourself? Donât worry, I didnât fall for you for more than ten years, it will be impossible in the future.â
Calista unexpectedly nodded in agreement and said hoarsely, âYouâre rightâ¦never mind ten odd yearsâ¦. even if I give you another ten odd years, you wonât fall for me. I was just kidding earlier, donât worry. I know myself
For some reason, Kallum could tell the bitterness in Calistaâs face. He suddenly felt a bitterness in his heart too, the feeling so quick and so urgent, it made him upset about what he just said earlier.
Calista opened her eyes again.
Since Kallum was so sincere, and she was so disadvantaged now, wasnât it a good chance to gain some advantage? So she suddenly said, âI donât need compensation, but I think we can strike a deal.â
Kallum put aside the confused and messy thoughts and asked in a serious voice, âWhat sort of deal?â
Calista replied, âI know youâve always wanted to expand into the pharmaceutical industry, but you havenât. found anyone brilliant enough to compete or surpass other companiesâ formulas and talents. But I can do that! We can have an agreement within three years, Iâll help your pharmaceutical company become a global competitor worth billions of dollars, and you will only have to do one thing for me.â
What she just described sounded like an impossible dream, and Kallum wanted to laugh at her for being too ambitious. But when he saw the seriousness in Calistaâs eyes, he stopped breathing for a moment. âWhat do you want me to do?â Kallum couldnât help but ask.
Calista curled her lips into a smile, exuding a different sort of elegance in the night sky. âI want to be the Fairchildsâ goddaughter, a proper one, with actual power. Give me three years and Iâll have a billion dollar company for you! Do we have a deal?â
If it were any other person standing in front of Kallum, he would definitely not listen to this babbling.
crazy
But since it was Calistaâ¦she made him consider her proposal very seriously, even though it sounded. impossible.
âA billion dollars isnât something you earn by just saying. Why should I believe that you can do it?â
Kallumâs eyes sharpened since Calista refused to make any requests and wanted to strike a deal instead, then he would follow the process of making a deal instead. He wanted to see how Calista was going to persuade him, since being the goddaughter of the Fairchilds was already worth billions in itself.
Calista rubbed her fists together and started walking towards him. âBecause the Staffords have been palace doctors for nine generations.â,
âBecause their skills have been passed down to me, and these are skills that nobody else has!â

Chapter 26 Billion Dollar Deal
Calista lifted her head, her wet hair drawing wavy lines on her face, exuding a merciless sort of beauty. âWellâ¦if you donât believe me, I can prove it.â
Just as she finished saying this, her expression suddenly focused, and the silver needle she prepared in her hands suddenly pierced right into Kallumâs chest with incredible speed!
Kallum took a step back, holding his chest in shock and staring at her. In the next moment, he could feel heat from his chest, and even though he tried to find it a few times, the needle had simply disappeared.
âWhat the hell did you do?!â
Calista suddenly stumbled but managed a smile, âDonât worry, this is a Heart Needle and will be naturally expelled from the body after a month. But during this one month, you will be very energizedâ¦.your senses heightenedâ¦â
Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly collapsed. Her body was already so tired, yet she still used. such a difficult acupuncture technique, and it used up all the Energy left in her.
Kallum got a shock and held her in his arms, âWhatâs wrong?!â
Calista weakly leaned on him- he smelled like sunshine, and she could only smell it at this distanceâ¦
She looked up at him, and even though she was becoming short of breath, her hand still managed to hold onto his shirt collar tightly, as if she was holding onto a rope that would rescue her from drowning waters. âIâmâ¦really good I can do it Kallum, believe me! Just believe me this onceâ¦â
Her voice was very cold, and even though she was trying her best to convince him and persuade him, but Kallum could hear crying and perhaps shouting behind her words.
His handsome face grew serious, then he quietly said. âOk, we have a deal.â
Calista was elated to hear this. She had never thought it would be this easy to obtain support from Kallum. Her lips curled into a smile before she finally fainted.
Kallum realized her body was very cold and had even fainted, so he quickly called his family doctor come over to take a look at her. Kallumâs family doctor was an old man in his sixties named Shaun, and was highly skilled, so he didnât need to check much to conclude what happened to her.
âOver exhaustion, so sheâs fainted from just lack of energy. I believe she hasnât slept for at least thirty hours.â
Kallurn nodded, then started unbuttoning his shirt. âAlso, can you help to check this? Earlier she stuck a
needle in.â
His long fingers pointed to a red dot on his chest with a strange look on his face, because after Calista inserted that needle, he realized that he suddenly felt awake, and all the tiredness from the day had disappeared, but he wasnât sure if it was because of that one needle.
Shaun Yancey, the Fairchildsâ family doctor, initially did not think much of it, but after he realized where the red dot was, he couldnât tear his eyes away! âDid you say..a needle went in here?â
Kallum nodded and frowned/âIs there a problem?â
Shaun leaned forward to take a closer look, and then started clicking his tongue. âThatâs really amazing, this sort of Energy Locking Needle technique has been lost for a long time. Legend has it that this sort of

acupuncture can lock a personâs energy and protect the heart, so if someone is close to dying, this technique can preserve his life.
Wow Iâm really impressed. I thought nobody knew how to do this anymore, but this young lady knows. such an advanced acupuncture techniqueâ¦donât worry, this needle will come out by tomorrow. But why did she do this to you?â
Kallum frowned, because what Calista mentioned was not Energy Locking Needle, but Heart Needle, so he didnât answer the doctor, but asked, âThen whatâs Heart Needle? Do you know anything about this?â
The old man was stunned by this question he didnât expect Kallum to know this term.
He squinted his eyes and thought for a while before speaking, âHeart Needle is the most advanced of all. Energy Locking Needle techniques! Apparently this needle will use the active Energy of the acupuncturist to protect the heart of the patient. So during the month that the needle remains inside, even if the patient is severely injured or close to death, he will not die, and it will help to improve blood flow and Energy flow, giving the patient an Energy boost.
But then again, this sort of technique was only written in ancient historical records, and nobody knows if itâs real. Besides, in this modern world of medical science, who really has this so called active Energy?â
