<b>Chapter </b><b>244 </b>
<b>The </b><b>smite </b>frore on Hannah’s lips. Hannah clutched her bag, had a sh of ferocity in her eyes<b>, </b>and quickly collected herself. “Oh, I didn’t know that Ma Saxon is here.”
She wondered, “Why does Owen drive Aria’s car? Why are they so close?”
Hannah kept herposure despite her inner doubts. “Owen, I am clear that my rtionship with Ms. Saxon is awkward, but it doesn’t <b>mean </b>that she and I should be at odds. Ms. Saxon grew up in Jamn, so she doesn’t want her folks to suffer, does she? I came to help her folks<b>, </b><b>so </b>I think she <b>won’t </b>mind giving me a free ride.”
The meaning between the lines was that Aria was narrow–minded if she refused to give a free ride to Hannah who hade to help her folks.
In the passenger seat, Aaron heard Hannah, turned around, and said, “Ms. Gibson, why did you get out of the car just now<i>?” </i>
Hannah had an awkward expression. “I saw Owen and came to say hi.”
“Hi, there. Goodbye.” Aaron was mad at Hannah because she had misled him to misunderstand Aria.
He hated hypocrites, so he didn’t mind offending Hannah.
He then urged, “Let’s go, Mr. Shaw. There is a lot on our tes.”
Owen got in the car and said, “Sorry, Ms. Gibson<b>, </b>we can’t give you <b>a </b>ride.” He closed the car door before Hannah argued.
The car sped off and kicked up a lot of mud. Hannah’s white coat was tainted with mud.
With a long face, Hannah took a deep breath and then called her colleagues.
Nobody answered her call, and she then tried a few times.
“What’s wrong with them?” she said grumpily. Angry, she had to walk to the vige alone.
“When did you feel sick? What were your symptoms? Where did you go? What did you eat? Tell me everything,” Aria said.
Sitting opposite Aria, the woman answered all the questions in detail.
“What do you keep?” Aria asked again.
“Some hogs, cows, and a kitten.”
Aria took notes. She left some medicine and advised, “Don’t go out if you can, Call me if you feel worse.”
The woman whispered, “I don’t have your contact information.”
“You’ll soon.” Aria looked at the <i>boy </i>beside her. “Could you show me your pigs and cows?<b>” </b>
The boy nodded. “Sure!” As Aria stepped into the backyard, a noise drew her attention.
She looked over and caught sight of a gray rat squeezing through the crack in the door and scurrying away.
Rats weremon in the countryside. Aria asked, “What’s kept behind that door?”
<b>“</b>Corns,” the boy replied. Aria checked on the pigs and cows and found them unsteady on their feet and breathless.
The livestock in three families had the same symptoms. On the way to Betty’s house, Aria texted Winston. [<b>Let </b>me into the group <b>chat</b>.<b>] </b>
<b>Chapter </b><b>244 </b>
Winston: (<b>Why</b><b>?</b><b>] </b>
Aria: To <b>exin </b>the situation<b>.</b><b>] </b>
Thanks <b>to </b>Aria’s previous donations, Winston had a brief hesitation and did as requested.
Because of the quarantine, the vigers couldn’t go to work anymore,
Out of fear, they locked themselves at home and were active in the group chat.
<b>Ralph </b>Marshall sent a photo together with a message. [The medical team arrived. There are so many chicks.]
A viger highlighted a tall nurse in the photo. [I like this one. What a pity that I am not there!]
Braden Colton: [Watch your mouth. They are here to help us.]
Ralph: [Braden, we said nothing offensive.]
Nobody had died of the virus or was severely sick yet, so the vigers still had the mood for jokes.
Boston Webb: [In my opinion<b>, </b>none of them can beat Madelyn in appearance. Madelyn is pretty and rich. I regretted not having her as my child bride when we were little.]
Beckham Colton: [Henry became crippled and is rotting in jail. Do you want to end up like him?]
Boston: [Henry asked for it. Madelyn would stay true to me if I were good to her.]
Alena Livingston: [Come on! She deserves a better man than you.]
Winston: [Shut up! Look who is here.]
[Who?]
Aria: [Hi, I am Aria.]
The chat ended abruptly.
Scared, Boston sent a message to Winston. [Why didn’t you warn us before you let Aria into the group chat?]
Winston ignored the message.
Aria: [The sick borates on your symptoms here. Let me know if your livestock is sick too.]
The vigers wondered about the rtionship between the virus and the sick livestock, but none of them dared to ask Aria <b>the </b>question.
Except for the sick, nobody sent new messages into the group chat anymore.
Every viger knew the miserable ending of Dominic and his family.
It took Hannah twenty minutes to walk to the meeting point. Then, sheined about her colleague who didn’t answer her calls.
He rolled his eyes at her and said, “Ms. Gibson, didn’t you tell us to leave first? We were too busy unloading the equipment to pick you <b>up</b><b>. </b><b>It </b><b>is </b><b>not </b>far. Aren’t you here now?<b>” </b>
His tone was unfriendly, so she said with a frown, “You…”
“Good houses have been chosen. Why don’t you go find yourself a ce to stay instead of wasting your time here?<b>” </b>
Hearing this, Hannah hurried to find Winston for her amodation.
<b>Chapter </b><b>244 </b>
<b>Winston </b>said, <b>“</b><b>Only </b><b>one </b><b>house </b>is avable <b>now</b><b>. </b><b>It </b>became vacant after its owner died there.
<b>Instantly</b><b>, </b><b>Hannah’s </b>face darkened<b>. </b>She snapped, “How can you arrange such a house for me?”
<b>Winston </b>hated to displease Hahnah who was supposed toe to help his folks. He racked his brains for a while. Then<b>, </b>he pped his hands<b>, </b>look Hannah’s suitcase<b>, </b>and said<b>, </b>“Come with me.”
<b>“</b>Thank you.”
Winston led Hannah to Betty’s house and asked, “Betty, how are you feeling?”
Betty was listening to the radio in the living room. At the sight of her visitors, she turned off the radio and said, “Much better now.”
Winston cut to the chase. “Betty, this is the doctor who came to help us. She needs a ce to stay. I remember that you have <b>a </b>vacant room. Can she live
here?<b>” </b>
Betty shook her head. “Winston, Madelyn lives in that room.”
Hannah said, “I don’t mind sharing the room with her.”
Before Betty made a response, Winston said, “She minds.”
Hearing this, Hannah frowned in displeasure and thought, “How dare she!”
All of <b>a </b>sudden, Betty coughed violently, bent down, and retched. Winston rushed over. “Doctor<b>, </b>help!”
After a sh of resentment in the eyes, Hannah walked over and checked on Betty. She then produced an antibiotic. “Take this.”
Winston helped Betty take the medicine.
Betty gradually caught her breath. Winston heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank goodness the doctor <b>is </b>here,” he said.
Hannah held her chin high and said, “Winston, my amodation…”
Right then, Betty spat out blood. Aria was back and witnessed that terrible scene.
