Chapter 621 The Virus Is Leaked

CHAPTER 621 THE VIRUS IS LEAKED

Yvonne was serving Elliot some soup. She was a little surprised when she heard what he said and asked," You know about Theo?"

She had not mentioned Theo to him in the past few days.

"Yes, I actually knew about Theo a long time ago." Elliot smiled with a pale face.

Yvonne replied, "A long time ago?"

"Well, when you had just returned to Canada, didn't you come to the hospital to see me and talk to me? From that time on, I was already conscious, but it was quite vague. I vaguely heard what you said, so I knew about Theo," Elliot explained.

Yvonne broke into a smile. "I see. Give me a moment, I'll go and get Theo to come over."

After she said that, she put the soup down and walked out of the room.

Soon, she came back with Theo in her arms.

Theo stayed in her arms obediently as she held him. H e was holding a Rubik's Cube in his two little hands and was playing around with it seriously.

Elliot looked at Theo's small face that was similar to Henry's and secretly sighed in his heart. A hint of sadness flashed across his eyes.

He knew that his love for Yvonne had really ended.

"Theo, this is Uncle." Yvonne didn't notice Elliot's expression. She put Theo down on Elliot's bed.

After Theo heard what she said, he stopped playing with the Rubik's Cube and looked up at Elliot.

Elliot happened to be looking at him too. The adult and the child looked at each other and the scene looked a little funny.

"Theo, can you call Uncle?" Yvonne leaned down and said to Theo gently.

Theo could only call his parents now and still couldn't speak. He still couldn't say anything else, so frankly, she didn't have the confidence to make Theo call Elliot "Uncle."

Sure enough, Theo didn't call him, nor was he looking at Elliot. He looked away and focused back on the Rubik's Cube.

Yvonne rubbed his little head and said to Elliot awkwardly, "I'm sorry about Theo, he..."

"I know, I heard you mention that Theo has autism, but I might be wrong. You can tell me about the specific details about Theo's situation and your life abroad in the past few years. I don't remember much about what you told me in the past." Elliot also raised his hand and touched Theo's head.

But he quickly put his hand down after touching him.

He actually wanted to touch the child a little longer, because Theo was Yvonne's child after all.

But he really didn't have the strength anymore. It took him a lot of strength to even lift his hand for a few seconds.

"Sure." Yvonne gladly agreed. She sat down and told him everything that happened in the past six years.

Now that he had woken up, she had also let go of her grievances with Henry. The only thing left was to get her revenge against Jacqueline, so there was nothing for her to hide.

After Elliot heard everything, he smiled bitterly." Speaking of which, I was also wrong. When Jacqueline and Dominic Conrad were still with Shaw, I should've gotten rid of them. Those things wouldn't have happened then. But fortunately, you’re still alive."

Yvonne touched Theo's forehead as she said with a smile, "Yeah, I’m also very glad that I survived and gave birth to Theo, but it was not your fault at all. You still didn't know about your true identity at the time."

Elliot lowered his eyes and asked, "Where is Shaw Taylor buried?"

When he fell into a vegetative state, Shaw was still alive.

He was not clear about what happened later.

He found out that Shaw was dead when she told him about it when he was still in the hospital.

"It seems to be at the public cemetery. I don't really know the details. When Henry comes back, I'll ask him about it," Yvonne replied.

Elliot nodded slightly and agreed.

Soon, it was time to rest again.

Yvonne went out while holding Theo. At the corner of the corridor, she met Henry.

Henry came forward naturally and took Theo from her arms. "Is Elliot resting?"

"Yeah." Yvonne was also used to his behavior of taking Theo from her arms, so she didn’t say anything about it as she responded.

"How is he?" Henry asked.

In the past two days, he was a little busy and he didn't visit Elliot much.

"He's recovering well. I heard from the physiotherapist that starting tomorrow, he can start doing simple rehabilitation exercises. He'll start with the movement in his arms," Yvonne replied.

Elliot could only blink, speak, raise his hand, and turn his neck. He couldn't do other movements, and he couldn't hold anything with his hands, so special training was required.

"That’s good." Henry nodded and didn’t say anything else.

Yvonne suddenly realized that something was wrong with him. Henry furrowed his eyebrows as if something was bothering him.

After she thought about it, she finally couldn't stand the urge in her heart and blurted out, "Did something happen to you?"

"I thought you wouldn't ask," he smiled.

Yvonne stared at him blankly. "Shut up, just tell me if you want to. If you don't want to talk about it, forget it."

"Okay, there's nothing to hide. Just now, Joe just received news that the leader of that organization was conducting a human experiment and injected some people with the virus. Currently, there are already infected people in that organization." Henry composed himself and his expression turned solemn.

Yvonne's pupils shrank to the size of a needle. "What? They’ve already started?"

"Yes." Henry held Theo with one hand and rubbed his temples.

Yvonne asked again, "How many people are infected i n that organization?"

"I don't know the specifics. I asked Shane and he said that the virus is very contagious and strong. There’s n o antidote yet, so presumably, there are people in that organization who have been infected already," Henry said.

Yvonne shuddered. "Well then, wouldn't it spread across the organization soon, and then from that area, spread to the entire city of Vancouver, and then to the entire country?"

"At the moment, it's not that bad yet. But if no measures are taken, it will definitely end up like that. The military has sent people to surround the place where the organization is located, and some of the public have been evacuated to prevent the spread of the virus temporarily. This will buy Shane some time t o conduct research on the antidote as soon as possible, " Henry replied.

"But this cures the symptoms, not the root cause. The leader wanted revenge on society. So, even if the military isolated the area, the leader can definitely still find a way to spread the virus," Yvonne said in a deep voice.

Henry glanced at her appreciatively. "You’re right, but this is the only way right now. The military is also making arrangements with all the outlets in Vancouver. They are ready to close the city at any time so that the virus won't spread outside the city before they find an antidote."

"Yes, but do you know about the early symptoms of infection?" Yvonne asked.

If they knew about the symptoms, they would be able t o take precautions in time.

"This is exactly what I was going to tell you when I got back." Henry told her about the symptoms that Joe had found out.

After listening, Yvonne raised her eyebrows. "These symptoms seem to be very common."

"Once infected, it will take less than two days before the patient is unable to get up and they'll experience shortness of breath. After another two weeks, if there's no vaccine, the patient will

definitely die," Henry told her solemnly. 2 copyrighted © content.

Yvonne let out a long sigh. "It seems like it's best to avoid going out if possible. Maybe someone who got infected with the virus has escaped from that organization and is spreading the virus everywhere."

"That's right. You should stay home and spend time with Theo for the time being," Henry said as he rubbed Theo's nose.

Theo frowned uncomfortably.

Yvonne smiled and asked, "By the way, has Joe heard anything about Jacqueline?"
