Chapter 239

In the past five days in Jamelan , Aaron had heard of Madelyn many times ,
Some villagers regretted their previous indifference to Madelyn who was r
was rich now .
The others dreaded Madelyn who had killed her family at a very young age . They said that nobody dared to help her , except Betty
Gradually , Aaron’s interest in Madelyn grew .
While Aaron was lost in thought , Owen walked on . He quickly caught up with Owen after he snapped back to reality .
Because of the flu , both Owen and Aaron became idle . They bought medical stuff and gifted them to the villagers .
Owen stopped by his car and said to Aaron , “ I’ll drive them to the hospital . You stay here
yhere !
Aaron said , “ I will go with you .”
“ You stay here to help the villagers . Be careful . Your safety comes first . Hand out the stuff to the villagers , and stay out of trouble . ”
Most villagers were either little or old , so Aaron could do something for them . Aaron nodded . “ All right . ”
Owen started the engine and caught up with Kate “ Kate , let me drive you to the hospital .”
The car moved faster than the wheelchair did .
With Kate’s help , Owen carried Botty into the car , and the wheelchair was placed in the trunk .
Kate couldn’t help but thought , “ It is great to have a man around ! ” However , the car was stopped before it left the village .
There were four or five masked villagers and police officers on the other side of the roadblocks .
Kate recognized the leader of the village , Winston Morton . “ Winston , why are there roadblocks ? Betty is sick , and she should be rushed to the hospital right away . ”
With a worried look , Winston
will be infected . ”
explained , “ It is confirmed that an unknown virus has spread in our village . Take Betty back to her home . Be careful , or you
Winston’s voice was muffled by the mask , and there was unmistakable gravity in it .
A police officer added , “ Jamelan is quarantined , and the medical team is coming . For the public good , no villager is allowed to leave . ”
An unknown virus … How dangerous !
Owen glanced at Betty in the backseat and frowned . “ Betty is severely sick , and there isn’t enough medicine . ”
Nodding , Kate said , “ Winston , Betty is old . Any delays in treatment is risky ”
Winston hesitated . “ Well ”
“ No , ” one officer said sternly . “ The virus is highly infectious , and we can’t put the public at risk . ”
He handed some medicine to Kate . “ Go home , and take good care of the sick . The medical team will arrive today . The hospital is full of patients , and most of them are from the villages nearby . Jamelan is the worst – affected village . It should be quarantined , and we will help the sick . After the medical staff arrive , we will send a doctor over to check on the sick . ”
Winston warned , “ Kate , you can’t go home if you go to the hospital now . What will happen to your granddaughter ? ”

Violet was sleeping at home , and Kate finally realized that her granddaughter was infected by the virus . Instantly , her heart tightened right away . ”
Owen took the medicine and said , “ Thank you , Kate , let’s head back . ”
“ Okay ,” Kate replied .
On the way back , Owen called Aria . He said , “ Betty is sick .”
Three hours ago , Aria got news that many people in Jamelan suffered from the flu . She felt weird and quickly packed up her stuff for a trip to Jamelan
For the trip , she bought a lot of drugs and medical equipment .
She was on her way to Jamelan when Owen’s call came . “ Is she infected ? ” she asked .
“ Yes , ” Owen responded .
“ I’m coming . ” Then , Aria hung up her phone and focused on driving .
Night fell . Thunder roared , and rain lashed down .
