    Chapter 388 Spare My Children


    The air seemed to be filled with a unique energy <b>that </b>inexplicably lifted Kallum’s spirits. Calista finished her <b>meal </b>quickly and was just about to send him away when he cradled her face and nted a <b>forceful </b>kiss


    on her


    “Callic, you’re right. Doing <b>anything </b>for someone you love is a joy. Even if she doesn’t reciprocate my feelings, I still find happiness in it!”


    Calista <b>found </b>herselfpelled to meet his gaze. <b>As </b>she looked into his bright eyes, her heart inexplicably raced again.


    Kallum said with a smile. “Of course, I’m a bit of a greedy person. If the one I like epts my <b>good</b><b>. </b>intentions, I will be even happier.


    Suddenly, he called out her name, “Callie! I won’t give up pursuing you. Does <b>that </b>cause you more distress, or does it bring you more joy?”


    “Of course <b>it </b><b>causes </b>me more distress!” Calista responded without a second thought.


    Suddenly, Kallum ced a hand on her chest, feeling her heartbeat racing faster than usual. Under Calista’s startled gaze, he said with utmost seriousness, “But your heartbeat is so fast. You’re lying to me.”


    Calista quickly covered her chest<b>, </b>ring at him.


    “You’re shameless!”This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org .


    Kallum waspletely unfazed. His gaze fixed on Calista. He had already figured out his strategy for winning her back.


    “You’ll eventually <b>understand </b>what real shamelessness is.”


    After he finished speaking with a wicked <b>grin</b>, he forcefully stole a kiss from Calista. Then, leaning into her car, he lowered his voice and said, “Sooner orter, you’ll be mine<b>.</b>”


    With that, he left the room with the satisfied air of a man who <b>had </b>just won a great victory.


    Calista repeatedly wiped her mouth with the bandage on her <b>hand</b>. Had it not been for the bandage covering her face, Kallum would have definitely noticed her blushing,


    I’ll be his sooner orter? Oh, he wishes<b>!</b>


    Once Kallum stepped out the door, his cheerful mood didn’tst long. The incident where Horatio almost <b>caused </b>harm to Callie was something he couldn’t tolerate for a day.


    But what he didn’t anticipate <b>was </b>that before he could make a move, Horatio had surprisingly made the


    first visit.


    How dare hee?


    After a few days apart, Horatip appeared significantly aged. However, his eyes were determined, shining with a fierce spirit. Such a person wouldn’t be beaten down easily.


    “What are you here for?”

    Chapter 388 Spare My Children


    Inside the study, Kallum stared at him, his face clearly showing his dissatisfaction.


    Horatio’s son assisted him forward, and he shakily ced an object on Kallum’s desk.


    It was an iron bookmark, appearing to have quite a history. On its intricate patterns, there was only one word, “Fairchild.” This instantly allowed Kallum to recognize its origin.


    During the feudal period, the Fairchild family was also part of the nobility. At that time, there were numerous items bearing the family crest. But over generations, only a few had survived. Therefore, <b>all </b>items with the family crest were now treasured. What Horatio presented was an ancient artifact imprinted with the family crest.


    “This… was given to me by your grandfather. I hope you still remember him…”


    Horatio’s voice reminded Kallum of that spirited, upright old <b>man</b>, causing <b>his </b>face to darken.


    “What are you trying to say?”


    Horatio’s expression was one of deep reminiscence. “During–our final battle, I saved your grandfather’s life. When he gave me this item, he told me that I could use it to request a favor from the head of the Fairchild family no matter when!”


    At this point, he suddenly fell to his knees.


    “Dad!” His son attempted to help him up, but he stopped him. He looked at Kallum, his face filled with


    regret.


    “I had considered using this to get you to save that person’s life before. But when I released Wayne, he told me that your life had to be sustained by that person every three days, and the one who was keeping you alive was also being depleted. He also mentioned that Calista was the one who saved your life, but I didn’t believe him at that time. I thought Calista was merely covering for the real person who saved you. But you needed her every three days. I knew there was no way you’d let her go to me. That’s why I resorted to such desperate measures, using your illness to publicly force you <b>into </b>cooperation with me. I had no other choice but to do this…


    As he spoke, tears surprisingly began to stream down his face. “It was my narrow–mindedness, my contempt for women, that led me to think of using Calista as a threat against you. It nearly cost her life… It was all my fault! But I won’t live much longer! No matter how many mistakes I’ve made, it <b>was </b>all just to survive! Now, I’m kneeling before you, begging you, Mr. Kallum, to overlook my <b>transgressions </b>and forgive me! Please, consider the many years of friendship between our two families…”


    Kallum toyed with the iron bookmark, a coldugh escaping his lips. “Yes, you were afraid I’d refuse, <b>so </b><b>you </b>spent a year or two scheming against me. When that failed, you thought to use Callie’s life to threaten me! So, in the end, you can disregard others‘ <b>lives </b>just because you’re afraid to die? And now, you have the audacity to beg me?”


    “Mr. Kallum! Mr. Kallum…. please listen to me…” Horatio moved forward on his knees. “It’s all over. God. doesn’t want me to live, and I ept it! I know it was Calista who saved your life<b>, </b><b>and </b>I’m fully aware that you would never harm her to save me… I’ve truly given up…”


    He hung his head low, filled with remorse.


    “Because I’ve been so confusedtely, I’ve made irreversible mistakes, and I’m willing to take full responsibility! Presenting this to you today, I’m only asking you to spare my children…
