“And Mr. Kallum was bitten by Sterling! Sterling was immediately isolated. For so long, the Wolford family- had not had any accidents, but the Fairchild family had trouble. It seems Mr. Kallum is indeed infected, just hanging on by a thread as the rumors say…
“If that is true, the Fairchild family is going too far. They secretly researched the K Virus for a cure and hid his condition! It is like they do not care about others‘ lives!”
“Anyway, it is better for us to stay indoors for a while. Those who got infected have all gathered at Fairchild Manor now. I heard that some of the servants taking care of them were even infected. If the state had not acted swiftly, it could have caused a widespread outbreak! These rich folks only care about themselves!”
Such conversations spread throughout the city. Many people, swayed by public opinion, firmly believed the K Virus originated from the Fairchild family. Some even protested at companies under the Fairchild Group, only to be suppressed.
Fairchild Manor was also bustling with activity.
“The Fairchild family must be accountable for this!” A woman cried angrily, “Just because they’re a prestigious family, they think they can disregard our lives! My son is only twenty–seven, in his prime, and now he’s infected! The Fairchild family must explain!”
Another woman sobbed, “My daughter worked hard before she finally became a top reporter. Every time, she spoke well of the Fairchild family. But how do they treat her? If the Fairchild family does not explain, we will not let the matter rest!”
Countless such complaints filled the air, with everyone highly agitated. After all, the infected were all wealthy individuals and could not be easily dismissed.
“We, the Fairchild family, guarantee that the K Virus did not originate from us!”
The butler stood firm but faced even stronger backlash..
“Where’s the evidence? Unless you let Mr. Kallum go to the hospital for a blood test, we will not believe it!”
“Recently, only the Fairchild family has had frequent contact with the K Virus. Who else could it be?”
“Bring out Kallum! My son only has a month to live. If he dies, I will not live either! The Fairchild family has brought ruin upon us. We will not let you off the hook!”
Wanda was so upset by the sudden outbreak that she fell ill. Silas had been on the phone non–stop, his furrowed brow never relaxing.
“Those troublemakers will not leave, and if this isn’t resolved soon, it’ll be a huge blow to the company. Many shareholders have been calling, and we…”
In a rush, the assistant reported to Silas, but with the situation urgent and bad news piling up, they could not think of a solution.
“The masterminds behind this are insane to spread something like the K Virus! How many lives will be lost due to their carelessness?”

blood, there would be no infection!
What happened that night was clear to everyone. Kallum had not been intimate with anyone except Calista. So the sudden outbreak of the K Virus in Horington was definitely orchestrated…
“It must be Harvey.” Calista frowned. “Initially, Sterling’s butler is now with Harvey. To prove whether he’s infected, Sterling must have provided a blood sample, and only his butler would have access to that blood, So apart from the Wolford family having the K Virus and Harvey being capable of such things, I can’t think of anyone else.”
“D“mn! Such people should be eliminated!” Quintus exclaimed, his fury escalating.
If they had not just pulled Harvey down and feared that killing him would arouse suspicion, the Fairchild family would have acted long ago. Not killing him was to avoid others thinking the Fairchild family was being overly cautious out of guilt. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have waited until now.
*Enough! There’s no use talking about it now. The key is, what do we do?” Gunner’s words left everyone feeling bewildered. They finally turned to Kallum.
Kallum looked at his hands. “I must hold a press conference as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the state intervenes, things will only get messier. The state trusts our family for now, so I must clear my name before they take action. For example, conceal the truth from everyone.”
Calista tapped the table. “Deceive everyone? You mean ensuring nobody can detect your physical condition. That is a bit difficult, at least from a medical standpoint, I can’t think of a solution for the time being
“Then what about using an electronic interference device? Ryder, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up. “I’ve seen a type of mini interference device. If worn in the position of a watch, all instruments will malfunction when close by. Take the disease detector, for example. Originally, it would glow red when it Touched Mr. Kallum’s blood. But with the interference device, the display result would become uncertain.”
