Betty’s condition gradually improved . When she learned about Violet’s situation , she reached out and grasped Aris’s hand with deep concern . “ Madelyn , I heard Violet isn’t doing well . ”
Aria knew Violet , Kate’s granddaughter , was both the only critical patient and the suspected source of infection .
Aria said , “ If Kate is willing , I’ll do everything in my power to save Violet . ”
“ Madelyn , thank you , ” Betty said gratefully .
Betty immediately picked up the phone and said , “ Kate , let Madelyn take a look at Violet ! ”
“ Betty , thank you for your concern , ” Kate politely declined . “ The hospital has transferred Violet to the isolation ward , where specialists care for her . I can stay with her too , so let’s not trouble Madelyn . ”
Violet was being treated in the isolation ward , and as a close contact , Kate was also under medical supervision . Still , the doctors permitted her to stay by her granddaughter’s side .
Although Kate was truly grateful to Aria , when it came to her granddaughter Violet’s safety, she trusted the medical professionals more .
Aria overheard the conversation and gave a small , reassuring smile . “ With so many specialists on the case , Violet will be just fine . ”
The medical staff were treating all the other infected patients .
For convenience , they relocated to the school , setting up beds in vacant dorm rooms . Betty was admitted there as well .
They could use the school kitchen for cooking , eliminating the need to set up a temporary one outside .
Just as Aria helped Betty sit down , a figure burst through the door and rushed straight toward her . “ Aria , help ! Please ! ” the figure cried desperately .
The girl frantically grabbed Aria’s arm , her voice shaking . “ Giana is pregnant . She was kicked in the stomach , and now , she’s bleeding . She begged me to ask you for help ! ”
Aria gently pushed the girl’s hand away . “ With so many doctors here , ” she said calmly , “ she doesn’t need me . ”
“ But Giana insists on seeing you , ” the girl pleaded urgently . “ She has fertility issues . The doctors say her chances of conceiving are really low . She didn’t even know she was pregnant . If she had , she never would’ve come with us to Jamelan . She really trusts you . Just having you there makes her feel safe . ”
The girl’s face was frantic , her voice trembling with panic .
Aria paused briefly before replying , “ I’ll go with you , but I can’t promise I’ll be of help . ”
“ I need to go back and get my emergency kit , ” Aria said . Her emergency medicinal pills might help .

Betty’s quarters and the treatment area were in opposite directions .
Owen stepped out , removing his apron . “ Go ahead . I’ll grab your med kit . ”
Aria looked at him and nodded . “ Alright . ”
With tears streaming down her face , Giana pleaded desperately , “ Please save my baby ! I can’t lose her . ”
The desperate pleas from the emergency room hit everyone present like a punch to the gut .
Those closest to Giana couldn’t hold back their anger any longer . They stared daggers at Hannah , eyes burning with hatred . One of them shouted , “ This is all your fault ! ”

Hannah looked equally grim . “ If she hadn’t printed my stuff without permission , I wouldn’t have accidentally kicked her
“ Accidentally kicked her ? ” one of them sneered . “ We saw it with our own eyes that you did that deliberately ! ”
One of Giana’s friends glared at Hannah and snapped , “ Don’t act shocked we found
out
about
your false report framing Arial ”
One of Giana’s friends glared at Hannah and sneered , “ Typical homewrecker ! First you disgusting ! ”
steal her man , and now , you’re scheming behind their back-
Originally , no one wanted to get too involved in the personal drama between Hannah and Giana . But now that Hannah had harmed Giana – and with the hospital director doting on his daughter – there was no way he’d let Hannah off the hook .
Hannah was the darling daughter of the Gibson family , but so what ? The hospital director was no pushover , either .
With this realization , everyone held nothing back . Their accusations shot at Hannah like a barrage of arrows , each word sharper than the last .
