The Congress Chamber had long been packed with people. A lengthy red carpet was rolled out, and the medical powerhouses who arrived were all highly esteemed. Thus, even though they weren’t celebrities walking down the red carpet, they attracted more attention than stars! Numerous television stations were broadcasting the event live, allowing the whole world to witness that grand spectacle.
As Calista was preparing to leave the car, Quintus voiced his concerns with a hint of unease.
“The bodyguards and others aren’t allowed to enter, Ms. Calista. Please be extra careful when you go in. If something seems amiss, seek out security from the Congress Chamber. I’ll be there immediately.
Calista was slightly unnerved by his words, yet she managed a smile. “I’m hardly someone of importance. Besides, who would dare to make a move in a place like this?”
Quintus thought, That’s true. Considering that Congress has the backing of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, ordinary people indeed won’t dare to make a move. “All right, Ms. Calista. I’ll wait for you outside. Go ahead. I wish you all the best!”
Calista nodded, then stepped out of the car. As soon as she did, reporters swarmed her like bees to honey, including a significant number of foreign journalists. They were all there for one reason, which was to interview Calista. She was so mysterious the world was eager to learn more about her.
Had it not been for the security guards surrounding her, providing a bit of breathing space, Calista might have been overwhelmed by the reporters the moment she appeared!

“Ms. Stafford, during the New Year, thousands of patients wanted to hold a small appreciation ceremony for you. Will you be attending?”
“What’s your next target, Ms. Stafford? Will you continue your research in virology?”
“Ms. Stafford, you appear quite joyful. Are good things on the horizon?”
“How are things going with Mr. Kallum? There are rumors about a eelebrity claiming to be Mr. Kallum’s sugar baby. Is there any truth to this?”
The questions that followed gradually began to veer toward Calista’s personal life. After all, compared to international media, the domestic press was more interested in her romantic gossip.
Throughout the event, Calista remained silent. However, due to the overwhelming number of people who wanted to interview her, her journey outside the venue was arduous!
Just then, a sudden twist occurred.

At that moment, a smoke bomb was thrown, shrouding the entire red carpet area in a thick haze. By the time Quintus and his men managed to fight their way through the crowd, Calista had already vanished.
In a sudden rush, Kallum bolted upright and dashed out, leaving the board members exchanging puzzled glances, clueless about what had just transpired!
Previously, while others were talking, Kallum was half–heartedly listening. In reality, his attention was entirely focused on the live stream playing on his phone.
Watching Calista descend the car with such calm composure filled him with immense pride. However, upon witnessing the sudden chaos, he immediately became restless. It was clear that the other party was targeting Calista!
“Seal off all traffic around the entire Congress Chamber! We absolutely cannot let that group escape!” After Kallum issued the command, a lockdown was imposed on all surrounding streets!
Meanwhile, when the Speaker of the Congress, Ethan, heard of Calista’s disappearance, he broke out in a
cold sweat!
His voice trembled as he gritted his teeth. “Just great! Of all the people who could go missing, why did it have to be Calista? Now, Mr. Kallum is surely going to lose his mind!”
A staff member beside him hung up the phone, his face pale as he spoke/ “He’s lost his mind. He’s blocked. off all the roads around the area! Now, many people in the vicinity can’t return home. What are we supposed to do now?”
Ethan felt his knees buckle, wiping the sweat off his forehead. “Let’s ignore that for now. You all go and soothe the other guests first. Someone, go and ask if Calista has been found or if there are any clues to her whereabouts! You all quickly think about what to do when Mr. Kallum arrives later!” Ads by PubFuture
At that time, Calista was bound and stowed away in the backseat of the car. Her head was shrouded in a black cloth, and she was draped in a long, black garment.
Someone had attempted to ambush her in the midst of previous chaos. Acting on instinct, she retaliated, and the individual who tried to capture her was effectively neutralized by her counterattack!
Seeing that she wasn’t easy to deal with, the opponent promptly threw a smoke bomb. Furthermore, two skilled fighters attacked her at the same time. She was at a disadvantage, unable to fend off two opponents. In the end, she was captured.
She wasn’t seized by someone from her own country but by a foreigner.
After she was captured, they drugged her. Then, they callously tossed her onto the backseat of a decrepit car and bagged her face.
However, her unique constitution delayed the drug’s effect, so she was still relatively lucid. Thus, the issue. she was facing was how she was going to release herself from the ropes.
As she was deep in thought, the car suddenly braked, almost throwing her off her seat!
From up ahead, the voice of a heavily bearded man cursing drifted toward her. He was speaking in Uronian, but his accent was thick, clearly foreign. “D“mn it! Since when did the government start moving so quickly?”
The kidnappers‘ planned escape route was abruptly blocked, causing them to panic. They had no choice

but to detour, only to find that all passages were blocked and cars were being thoroughly inspected!
The driver was getting a bit flustered, wiping his sweat repeatedly. His hands gripping the steering wheel were slightly unsteady. It’s not like I kidnapped the president’s daughter, so why is the search so intense? What is going on with the backup? Why haven’t they come to my aid yet?
