Chapter 1611

After a long while, Lily moved her fingers away from the little girl’s wrist. The little girl did not throw a tantrum when Lily took her pulse and only looked at Lily quietly.Lily did not say a word and slowly got to her feet. Dr. Blanc knew Lily was sad and did not say much except, “Do you need a break?”Before Lily could reply, the little girl said timidly, “Am I going to die?”“Nonsense! You won’t, okay?” Dr. Morris, who had been quiet, spoke. He hurried over, tucked the blanket around the little girl, and put the toy back into her hand. “You only have a cough and fever. You’ll be fine after a few days.”“But… my mommy died,” she said softly, slightly quivering. She was trying to suppress her feelings, but her eyes were already brimming with tears since she was still a kid.Lily was shocked and looked toward Dr. Blanc. She saw the usually calm man turning his head away in silence. It was clear that what the girl said was true.“Your mommy had a different disease than yours. Y

Just thinking about it made Lily clench her teeth and want to kill whoever created the disease.“It was an unusual case.” Dr. Blanc sighed and was rather sad. No one would be in a good mood seeing a weak child enduring such pain.“Unusual? Unusual?! There are patients in their 60s and 70s here, aren’t there? The girl’s mother would only be 30 at the most! How could she die?” Lily knew she had slightly lost it.However, she felt terrible when the child told them her mother had died. It was as if someone was choking her throat, and she could not breathe.“That’s because her mother had cancer.” Dr. Morris said blandly.Lily looked at him in disbelief and was in a daze for a moment.“Her mother had late-stage cancer and got infected with the virus. Her condition quickly worsened, and she died within two days, probably because she was already frail from her cancer.”Dr. Blanc sighed and continued, “Since the kid stayed by her mother, she got infected. However, the kid’s symptoms are

When Mike returned, he bumped into Rhea in the corridor as she was leaving. She looked at Mike with resentment after what had happened last time. As the two crossed paths, Rhea suddenly put out her hand to stop him. “Did the boss ask you to look for Lily?”Mike stopped and rubbed the back of his neck as he chuckled coldly. “Why don’t you ask him yourself?”Rhea lifted her chin and said arrogantly, “Don’t you dare think I don’t know what you guys are up to. Do you think Lily can replace me if she returns?! I’m irreplaceable in the lab!” From her studies to her work, she was always the cream of the crop in every field. Rhea genuinely despised and looked down on Lily.‘She’s just a perfumer with some fame. So what if she knows about herbal medicine or learned from Dominic Fike?’Since Rhea was a significant part of the virus research, she had an indescribable sense of accomplishment seeing the pandemic spread worldwide.‘Everyone will know me one day and shudder at the mere mentio

“You knew Lily was sensitive and knew a lot about drugs, yet you tried to spike her tea. Did you do it to tip her off so that she’d switch her tea with yours? Did you let her go on purpose?” He slowly walked a few steps forward, then climbed up the stool. Standing on top of it, he stared into Mike’s eyes judgingly.“I thought she wouldn’t discover my drug and that she would overlook it. I hadn’t thought it through.” Mike regarded him calmly, showing no sign of alarm. His boss stared at Mike for what seemed like an eternity through the mask, and then he started laughing. “Why? Aren’t you going to open the box and see what’s inside? It’s for you alone!”Mike was filled with dread after hearing those words. He held up the box and opened it abruptly, finding a small, severed finger inside. The blood on it had dried up, and he could tell from its shape and size that it did not belong to an adult.An explosion occurred in his head, as if a bomb had been thrown at it.The next second,

Lily had not slept a wink for two days. She watched the medicinal concoction intently as she drew a tiny bit and carefully fed a white mouse.When the little creature drank it all, she put down the dropper and put the mouse back into the observation cage. She bent over and studied it carefully. Having remained quiet, Dr. Morris asked, despite himself, “Are you sure it’ll work for the mouse?”Lily shook her head. “No.”Dr. Morris was surprised. “It’s because I’m not sure that I’m experimenting first. How could I use it on a human being without knowing what the result would be?” Straightening up, Lily glanced at him, then turned to feed the other white mice.She had familiarized herself with the virus, but it was cunning, and every person of different ages and constitutions would show different changes in their wrist pulse. Therefore, to be safe and accurate, she took the virus from each of them and put it into these laboratory mice.She also selected different strains of mice t

Dr. Morris was confused.‘Can I tell her I don’t quite get it?’“Are you saying we should do nothing and let it mutate?” He thought about it and asked.Lily shook her head. “What I am saying is that herbal medicine is meant to fortify damaged organs and mobilize the defense mechanism. Our bodies know how to protect themselves; that is why we can get well from a common cold after a few days without taking any medicine. That is our defense mechanism working to heal us.“However, this virus disrupts the mechanism. The medicine I’m researching would fix it so our bodies could fight and kill the virus.”She spoke earnestly, and Dr. Morris was dumbfounded. After a few seconds, his lips moved as he blurted out, “That’s a pipe dream!”‘It is! Would the patients still need us if there was a way to fix the defense mechanism and if our bodies could counteract the virus? Aren’t we researching medicine to fight the virus? Herbal medicine physicians are indeed unreliable. They’re full of s*hit

‘I can understand that, but what about Alex?’Although there were medical staff taking care of him and Greg was around, Lily was still worried as the outsiders had no idea how to deal with the virus. Fortunately, she could still use her phone.For everyone’s sake, she could only follow the rules and nod. “I got it. I won’t leave and will stay right here.”Dr. Blanc sighed. “I know I’m asking a lot from you and everyone else, but I hope you can all understand due to the unusual circumstances. I won’t be going home either.”Lily gave him a slight nod and was about to leave when she thought of something and turned around. “Dr. Blanc, how long is the incubation period?”“Based on what we know, it’s about seven days. However, since our data is not comprehensive with limited cases within the country, we’re unsure if it’ll be longer than seven days.”‘I see!’ In other words, she could not leave the place for at least seven days.Lily retired to her assigned bedroom and realized the pla

Anastasia was confused and had no idea why her father had changed so much, but she was sure it had something to do with Rhea. Since she had nowhere else to go and no one to talk to, Anastasia could only turn to Lily.Lily frowned. She was too focused on Alexander, so she did not think much of it when Anastasia first called her. Hearing Anastasia again now, she thought there was more than met the eye. Lily thought about it and asked, “Where are you now? What’s your exact location?”“I…” Anastasia looked around her and said, “I’m in front of a boba tea shop on Maplewood Street. Lily, I don’t know where to go. If I go home, my father will surely tell someone to lock me up. I…”“Stay where you are. I’ll get someone to fetch you,” Lily said quietly, “Don’t be afraid. I’ll settle you down first, and we’ll talk then, okay?”“Okay!” Anastasia answered obediently. “Thank you—”Before she could finish, Lily had already hung up.She did not need Anastasia to thank her, and it was rather dan

Lily poured herself a glass of water and got hold of herself after gulping half of it down. She took a deep breath, still haunted by the nightmare scenes. She understood that the virus would affect everyone even if it did not turn people into monsters.Take the situation in Burnkwen, for example. The pandemic was severe, and the governments there had implemented lockdowns in different areas to stop its spread but to no avail. Sometimes they don’t even know how it happened.‘We have detected and contained the cases early, but who knows if it’ll worsen? Furthermore, finding a cure is tough since everyone responds differently to the virus.’Lily no longer felt sleepy as she massaged her temples. Still, her heart sank as she thought about those tormented by the virus. She got dressed, left her room, and went to where the patients stayed.She did not go in and stood outside the seemingly stifling partitioned room, where she watched for a moment. The little girl was awake, sitting on the

It was a simple question, but it seemed too hard for her.“No, I only had my mommy...” The little girl’s voice was soft and yet wrenching. Lily took a deep breath and tried to smile more naturally. “How could you only have your mommy? You have me, and the doctors and nurses here all care about you a lot, okay?”Hearing this, a smile returned to Debbie’s face. “Okay!”As she nodded, two slow, noticeable trails of red liquid ran from her nose to her upper lip.Shocked, Lily snatched a tissue from a box to wipe them off. However, the girl showed no discomfort and stared at what she was doing with widened eyes.“Debbie, your nose’s bleeding!” Lily said this in alarm as she palmed the girl’s forehead with one hand and wiped the blood with another. However, the blood soon soaked the tissue paper. She took another one to stop the flow, but the same thing happened... …Over and over again…Lily pressed the nurse call button, and the medical staff soon came and were shocked to see
