Semua Bab Spoiled by Mr. Russell: Bab 1621 - Bab 1630

Having remained quiet on the side, Dr. Morris spoke, “The government started building the vaccination center a long time ago, and I think it should be operational by now. I heard the tender process had been completed, so I assume it will be very soon. They have also rounded up the specialists in that field, so I’m sure they’ll step up the prevention of the spread of the virus.”‘This is no doubt good news!’Lily grew calmer and asked, despite herself, “Have they already developed the vaccine? Is it reliable? Has it gone through clinical trials yet? Are there any data on its side effects and adverse reactions?”Dr. Blanc shook his head. “I’m not sure since it’s a different department. However, vaccines would have to go through several stages of clinical trials before they could be used. Anyway, I’m only telling you this so that you know everyone is working hard, and it’s not you alone.”“I know you’re eager to find the cure, but don’t get too anxious about it.” With a soft sigh, Dr.

“I don’t understand why you couldn’t tell beforehand if you’re picking up Alex. Why couldn’t you just tell me? Patient number 58? A new case? What the hell was that about?” Lily questioned Dr. Blanc as she stared at him.She was distraught. ‘I understand if they discovered Alex and now want to take him away for quarantine, but why didn’t they tell me anything during such a long journey from the center?’Dr. Blanc looked at her deeply without a word.“Did you not tell me because you thought I wouldn’t agree to it and would relocate him in advance?” Lily guessed since she could not get an answer from Dr. Blanc.“Lily, there’s no need to dwell on it. You’ve stayed at the center for quite some time and know how special and serious the disease can be. I only didn’t inform you just in case—”“Just in case?” Lily was upset. “You simply don’t trust me! If you don’t, why do you want me to work for you guys? I shouldn’t even stay, should I?”“It’s not that we don’t trust you, but—”“I dis

Alexander smiled, nodded, and said, “I’m feeling much better.” After a pause, he added, The past few months must’ve been terrible for you.”He spoke simply and meaningfully. Since he was sick, he could no longer care for his wife and became a burden. He also learned more about Lily, even though he regretted being in this state.He always thought she was a strong, independent, and intelligent woman and that he was powerful enough to protect her. However, the sickness made him realize that he, too, could be weak and helpless and that he could also count on Lily to protect him.Between them, there was never a question of who was dependent. Instead, they always depended on, supported, and backed each other.“Don’t be silly!” Lily chided him softly. Growing calmer, she rose and looked at him, then asked seriously, “Have you thought it through? Do you want to go with us? You don’t even know who they are, do you?”‘He must’ve just come out from the coma not long ago. If not, they would h

“No idea!” Rhea grew impatient. “Why do you care about him so much?”Her tone was unfriendly. Stumped, Maria paused for a moment. “I-I was just wondering.”‘I dealt with Austin several times, didn’t I? To beg him, I had to travel here and there, and he ended up being a fake miracle doctor. What about my gifts and medical fees? If he’s fake, I should get them all back, shouldn’t I?‘However, it’s too late now since he’s gone missing. From what I heard, he might even be dead now.’“I just think that if he were found, I could at least get him to refund me. The money was so ill-spent!” Worried that she would upset her daughter, she spoke in a murmur, then quickly added, “Anyway, perhaps one of his victims found out that he was a fake and kidnapped him out of spite.”Not paying attention, Rhea cocked her head with a frown as her mother tugged at her sleeve. “Hmm, it’s possible.”Maria was delighted by her patronizing remark and became convinced that her speculation was correct. “But y

“You have no jurisdiction over it despite being who you are?” Puzzled, Rhea frowned.Cameron explained, “Even though I hold a high post, I’m in charge of a different department.”“Tsk.” Rhea was somewhat disdainful. “I thought you have power, but I was wrong.”Cameron did not retort to Rhea’s mockery but looked ashamed instead. Meanwhile, Fabian and his wife were bewildered as they peered from afar.“I wonder what Ree has on him. I’ve never seen Ron looking so attentive. He was never like that, even in front of my sister. He’s acting like a…” Fabian paused and hesitated whether to say the word.On the other hand, Maria was outspoken, so she completed his sentence, “Like a lapdog!”Fabian was astounded. He shot his wife a look but did not scold her because he thought so too.“I feel the same way. I asked Ree what the secret is all about just now.”“What did she say?” Fabian asked eagerly, rather intrigued.“She said that hearing about it might cost me my life and asked me wheth
