Chapter 795
Soon, Bruce was quarantined and transported into the ambulance by professional nurses. The ambulance quickly
drove him to the epidemic prevention center.
Darcy drove behind, following the ambulance.
“How far is the epidemic center from here?” Joanna asked.
“The epidemic wards are usually not in the city. I estimate it will take at least 20 minutes.”
When Joanna heard this, her mind went blank. Tears streamed down her face. “How could this be? How could this
be?”
“Bruce, you must survive!”
“It wasn’t easy for us to get this far. You can’t be so cruel. You can’t leave me and the children like this!”
When Carson heard this, his heart ached. He could not help but comfort her. “Miss Haynes, don’t be too sad.
Perhaps the epidemic prevention hospital can cure Mr. Everett.”
Carson did not know what to say to comfort Joanna.
Joanna paused for a few seconds and suddenly thought of something. “Darcy, what did he come into contact with
today? Did he meet anyone else?”
Darcy thought for a while and seemed to recall something. “Oh right, Mr. Everett saw some people who claimed
they were from the research institute.
“Also, Mr. Everett asked me to smuggle back a box of items from Antlen. But I don’t know what’s inside. Mr. Everett
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtonly said that it’s something important.”
When Joanna heard this, her eyes suddenly widened.
Smuggling?
What was he smuggling?
With so much money, he could buy anything he wanted. Was there a need to smuggle?
Darcy continued, “Those were the only noteworthy things that happened today.”
“Did he say what kind of item it was?”
“I’m not too sure. It’s some kind of liquid. It’s blue, and it’s in a sealed refrigerated can.”
“Maybe that’s the source of the infection.”
As Darcy spoke, he could not help but feel a chill run down his spine.
He toured several countries with this item before bringing it home.
If this liquid carried an infection, he should be infected too..
However, he felt perfectly fine.
Mr. Everett had only touched it lightly. How could he be infected just like that?
Joanna choked when she heard this. Instantly, she forgot about her sadness.
All she wanted to know now was what this item was.
“Bruce, what else are you hiding from me? Didn’t you say you were going to Antlen for a business trip? Why did you
do such a thing?”
Darcy thought for a few more seconds and said solemnly, “Miss Haynes, why don’t you call Miss Bridges and ask
her?”
“Miss Bridges?”
“Yes, when he was in Antlen, Mr. Everett went to see Miss Bridges alone. During that period, he didn’t allow us to
follow him. He was so mysterious.
“Miss Bridges might know something. Miss Haynes, why don’t you ask her?”
When Joanna heard this, she did not dare to hesitate. “Okay, I’ll call her immediately!”
Saving people was like putting out a fire. She could not waste a second.
Joanna wiped her tears and hurriedly took out her phone to call Aria.
Unfortunately, the call did not go through.
“Hello, the number you have dialed is unavailable. Please try again later…”
“What’s going on? I can’t get through to her.”
“Give it a few more tries.”
Joanna tried calling Aria three times in a row. Unfortunately, her phone seemed to be switched off.
“Her phone is turned off. I can’t get through.” Joanna was even more flustered now.
Aria definitely knew something.
Joanna desperately wanted to contact Aria and ask her what was going on.
“By the way, Mr. Everett said Miss Bridges will come to Greyport for treatment. She should be on the plane now, so
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe’s probably unreachable by phone. Let’s wait a little longer.”
Joanna was even more upset when she heard that. “What about the people from the research institute? Should we
contact them? Why don’t we call them?”
Darcy frowned. “Mr. Everett was in contact with them. He might have their contact information on his phone!”
“Where’s his phone?”
“It’s still in the villa. I might have to go back and get it.”
“What?” When Joanna heard this, she was so anxious that she wanted to vomit blood.
“Miss Haynes, don’t be anxious. You and Darcy go to the hospital first. I’ll return to the villa immediately to get Mr.
Everett’s phone.”
“Mm, okay. Be quick.”
“I got it. Darcy, stop at the intersection ahead and let me out.”
“Will do.”
Darcy stopped the car at an intersection.
Carson hurriedly got out of the car, hailed a private car, and rushed to the villa.
“Bruce Everett, you have to hold on. You’ll definitely be fine.
“The children and I need you. No matter what? You can’t let us down.”
“Miss Haynes, don’t be so flustered. Mr. Everett will be fine. He’s just unconscious now. Medicine is so advanced
now. There must be a way to treat him.
“Besides, Mr. Everett’s body is different from ordinary people’s. Ordinary viruses definitely won’t hurt him.”
“I hope so! God bless him…” Joanna kept praying along the way, begging the heavens not to torture them like this
again.
