“Dr. Smith, how have you been?”
Barney was his only hope. If anything untoward happened to Barney, Marcus would no longer be the president.
Looking at the president, Arius was annoyed and snorted. Earlier on, Marcus had wanted to get rid of all of them when everything was fine.
Now that he required their help, he became so pleasant.
“Arius, you and Sophie can continue with your work! I will rest here.” Barney knew that Arius disliked the president, so he did not want Arius and Sophie to waste their time there.
“Sure, Dr. Smith. I'm taking my leave. If you need anything, please call me.” With that, Arius took Sophie with him.
The two of them did not even cast a glance at the president.
They did not care about his status. As citizens of Chanaea, there was no need for them to have any regard for Marcus.
Back in the ward, Marcus was not looking too pleased.
“Dr. Smith, all of you have been here for quite some time now. However, there has been no progress at all. Do you think—”
Marcus was trying to be tactful, but it was obvious what he was trying to get at.
Barney let out a sigh.
“You have seen with your own eyes that everyone is doing their best at the International Medical Association. But this virus is different than the usual ones. We have no idea what it is.”
They had already tried their best, but the outcome was as such. There was nothing they could do about it.
“Are you trying to tell me that there's nothing you can do about it?” Is that what you mean? If that's the case, does it mean that everyone has to die?
Barney kept quiet.
“We are trying our best. As for the result, I can't promise you anything as of now.”
The virus was evolving every day. It was very tricky, and that caused the current situation.
Everyone was trying to hide the fact that Barney had been hospitalized. Unfortunately, a few photos showed up on social media in Anglandur. After the citizens of Anglandur found out that Barney was ill, they got into a frenzy.
They thought for sure they were going to die this time around. As a result, some of them began to riot on the streets. Suddenly, Anglandur was thrown into chaos.
Unfortunately, they did not like the current president as well. They blamed Marcus for being too incompetent. That was why the country could not handle the virus.
Some of the citizens got so emotional that they ran to the International Medical Association and wanted to charge in.
There were riots everywhere in Anglandur. During a time like that, leaving the country would be the best option.
After all, whatever happened in Anglandur had nothing much to do with them.
Tristan received a phone call from William. Given the current situation in Anglandur, it was too dangerous for them to stay on. William hoped that his son could leave the country.
“Tristan, take Sophie back with you! Whatever happens in Anglandur has nothing to do with us!” William was really worried about both of them. He had been catching up on the news of Anglandur. Sadly, even Marcus was not able to take control of the present circumstances.
“Dad, please don't worry about us. Everything is still under control.” At that moment, Sophie was still at the International Medical Association. “I can't talk to you now. I have to go to the International Medical Association and take a look.”
There were riots going over there. Tristan felt that he needed to be by Sophie's side so that he could protect her.
“Tristan, listen to me for once!”
William was about to say something else when Tristan ended the phone call.
The elderly man could only sit there and sigh.
He did not care about others. All he wanted was for his son to be safe and sound.
Sarah was equally worried when she saw her father's expression.
“Dad, don't worry too much. Tristan has always been a very opinionated person. I'm sure he knows what he is doing.”
In fact, both Tristan and Sophie had their own beliefs and thinking. They knew what they wanted to do.
