Chapter 278 Pin The Blame
In an effort to prevent spreading his ailment to others, Kallum seldom left his house. When he did venture- out, he was closely guarded to ensure his safety and was injected with suppressants as if they were free of charge.
Moreover, Harveyâs butler had indeed confessed. Those involved in Harveyâs activities were all under Kallumâs control. Unfortunately, even if he were to hand those people over, others would likely assume it was the Fairchild family woercing confessions, using their authority to suppress others.
âIt was you!â At that moment, it seemed as if Harvey had perceived something and desperately onto the stage!
rushed
âIt was you! Not only did you ruin me, but you also tried to pin all the blame on me! You were secretly researching the K Virus to save your own life, and when it accidentally got leaked, you refused to admit it. Instead, you put all the blame on me! Kallum, youâre nothing but a devil! A devil who doesnât care about the lives of all the people in Horington!â Without a hint of shame, Harvey pinned everything on Kallum!
At that moment, the relatives of those infected rushed over, their eyes blazing red, their faces contorted with rage! Their anguish was palpable, coupled with a fury that stemmed from being fooled by vile individuals!
âYou still wonât admit it at this point? My child is only thirty, and youâve ruined him! I donât care! If you can keep living, why should my child be quarantined? You must save him!â one parent shouted.
People were relentless toward Calista. âHow could you support such a villain? Kallum should have been quarantined long ago! Yet, youâve been covering for him all this while. Now look at the mess. The virus has leaked, and it could potentially wipe out Horington! Yet, youâre still defending him!â
âYou must save our child! Since Kallum is still alive, our child shouldnât have to die!â
The entire stage seemed to have morphed into a massive vortex, throwing an unexpected twist for the first time. Kallumâs mind was yet every countermeasure he could think of was flawed, and every

potential outcome was terrifying!
However, he instinctively raised his hand, and in an instant, countless bodyguards emerged from the venue. At first, Howard thought they were sent by the Fairchild family to apprehend someone! As a result, he and the officers behind him were all on high alert!

However, to people were merely there to maintain order. Under the forceful suppression, the previously chaotic situation was immediately subdued. However, one couldnât silence those people.
Those angry accusations, the voices filled with either sorrow or mockery and the various calculating cold gazes made Kallum feel uncomfortable. Throughout his life, no one had ever dared to speak to him in such a tone or look at him with such eyes. He had never imagined that one day, he would be pushed to such extremes.
However, he couldnât let things continue to unfold as they were.
As the head of the household, he couldnât back down at that moment. Even if he had to confront the situation, even if it meant being quarantined, he was determined first to dismiss the baseless accusations
sosing him!

Just as Kallum was about to speak, Calista suddenly tugged at him. âWhat are you planning to do?â
When Kallum turned around, his gaze shifted from sharp to sorrowful. Even if he were to die, he didnât intend to burden Calista. However, he had inadvertently entangled her in his troubles, and if she wasnât careful, she might end up being doomed eternally, just like him. âIâm sorry. Iâll tell others that it was me who used your father as leverage to make you work for me. I wonât let anything happen to you.â
Calista was taken aback. She hadnât expected that, under the scrutiny of thousands, the first thing on Kallumâs mind would actually be to protect her.
She quickly asked, âAnd what about you? Are you planning to expose Harveyâs crimes to the public, then shoulder the concealed ones all by yourself? Do you want to be quarantined?â
Deprived of Calistaâs treatment, Kallum would soon meet his end in quarantine..
A flicker of confusion passed through his violet eyes, then instantly transformed into resolve! âIf the situation is beyond repair, I have no choice but to do this!â
Calista gripped his hand tightly. âIf that happens, the Fairchild familyâs reputation will be utterly destroyed! Youâ¦. Youâll die, and all our efforts will be wasted! In such a scenario, your relatives will surely unite to attack. Do you think the already exhausted Silas can endure all of this? Even if you bear all the
considered your parentsâ feelings? They are desperate to cure you! Have you consequences, have you thought about them?â
Kallum fell silent. On one hand, he was faced with responsibility; on the other, his kin. However, the most important thing to him was the woman before him!
If he died, even if he claimed that he had coerced Calista into everything, those narrowâminded enemies. of hers would still not let her off the hook.
He couldnât figure out what Calista could possibly do while he was stuck in the quarantine area.
âThatâs why, before you take that final step, could you trust me just once?â Calistaâs eyes sparkled with an unusual light with a mysterious smile. âDonât forget, I still have an ace up my s
Their conversations were held in secret. Meanwhile, those in the audience who wished ill fortune upon the Fairchild family had no intention of giving them time to strategize.
Aaron expressed his displeasure. âWhat on earth is the Fairchild family trying to do? Trapping us all here? If not, Iâm leaving. Iâm not as young as I used to be, and my resistance is not what it used to be. I certainly donât want to catch the K Virus and bring it home!â
