Chapter 1523
As soon as Anne and Anthony arrived in Luton in the afternoon, Anne received a call from Lucia. "Anne, can you come and visit me? You won't get infected if you wear protective clothing. I'm feeling very uneasy..."
"I'll visit you later," said Anne.
After she hung up the call, Anthony's black eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and he was a little unhappy. "You're going to the hospital?"
"She's scared and she doesn't have friends here. I'll just go see her. It's no big deal," said Anne.
Anthony did not say anything but he did not look too happy. His expression was tense, cold, and harsh.
Of course, he did not want to care about Lucia's life and death. That was because if Anne had been infected by the virus, he could be responsible for the treatments from all aspects.
As for the others, there was no need for him to get involved.
However, it was clear that Anne could not be indifferent.
"We'll talk about it later. We just got home, so let's first take a rest. " Anthony domineeringly brought her to the hallway.
Anne thought it was not that urgent anyway, so she should do as he said and just take a rest.
Before they went to pick up the children, Anne and Anthony went to the hospital together in a car.
Lucia was staying in a private ward. It was a VIP ward.
Actually, as long as the virus did not come into direct contact with their body, they would not be infected through airborne transmission.
Lucia was particularly happy once she saw that Anne came. "Anne, you're here! I'm feeling much better as soon as I see you."
However, she did not see anybody behind Anne, so a glimpse of dejection flashed across her eyes.
Anne ignored the expression on her face and focused on that place where it was rotten. It did not spread but it did not get much better either. "How are you feeling? Is it still itchy?"
"It'll get a little itchy occasionally, but it's not very obvious." Lucia could not hold it in anymore, so she asked, "Did you come by yourself? Did Mr. Marwood say anything?"
Anne answered the second question and comforted her, "No. Don't worry. We're investigating the source of the virus. We'll certainly cure you."
Lucia nodded. "I know. It's just that it's too hard to stay here every day and not be able to go anywhere. The main thing is that I'm very scared."
Anne has experienced such a feeling before in the past.
Nobody liked to stay in the hospital and smell the smell of sanitizers every day.
"What are you scared of?"
"I didn't dare to tell you at first, but I keep feeling that someone wants to harm me. I can't even sleep well at night." Lucia has an uneasiness on her face. "It must be an overreaction left behind from being abducted the last time."
"Don't worry. Anthony did arrange for bodyguards to stay outside the ward."
"That's useless! Useless!" Lucia shook her head with all her might. "If that really worked, why would you have been abducted for two years? Also, the doctors and nurses kept coming in and out of the ward. I'm afraid someone will disguise themselves as them and come in to kill me. Anne, think of a solution, alright?"
Anne hesitated and asked, "Where do you want to stay?"
Lucia said while thinking, "I definitely can't stay at my own place. Those people might have already targeted my place. Anne, why don't...I stay with you?"
"With me?" Anne was surprised.
"I don't have a family here, and my only friend is you. Don't worry. I’ll stay with you, but I absolutely won’t infect you!" Lucia guaranteed.
Anne hesitated. She was not worried about being infected. It was just that she was staying at the Royal Mansion, so was Lucia also going over to stay with her?
Just when she had no idea what to do, footsteps could be heard coming from behind her and Anthony walked in. "I have things to do. Can we go yet?"
Luca looked at the man she was missing. She knew he would come.
Was he here to visit her?
Anne was stunned. "Oh. I'll be right out." She then said to Lucia, " Just stay here for the time being. I'll ask the doctor. If she says you can be discharged from the hospital, then I'll make arrangements for you."NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
