    Chapter 1888


    Alexander felt much more relieved after hearing Lily’s confident response, even if it was only meant to


    comfort him.He felt less anxious and chuckled before imitating her tone, saying, "I know my body well."


    Lily was speechless.


    "How are you over there?" Alexander changed the subject.


    "Things are going well."


    She loosened her hair and shook her head to stretch her neck.She palmed it, looked up, and nced


    around before saying ndly, "I can return to you and Galen once Iplete the task here.You


    guys...just be careful."


    Alexander knew the organization monitored her, and it was sometimes inconvenient for her to talk, so


    he did not ask why she said that.


    "l take care of things here, so don’t worry too much.If you experience difort, you must tell me,


    okay?"


    After a pause, he suddenly sounded much more rxed.


    "But I think you’re not infected either."


    Lily was surprised.


    "If you are, wouldn’t everyone there be infected as well? Since they’ve created it, they wouldn’t risk


    infecting themselves, would they?" he reasoned.


    "You''re right."


    Lily nodded and said, "That’s why you shouldn’t worry too much.Let’s monitor things first."


    "Okay."


    After Alexander hung up the phone, his mind could rx a little more.Although what he said just now


    was meant for " someone" to hear, his reasoning was sound.


    Since the symbiotes came from there, they should know if Lily were indeed infected, they would suffer


    the same fate eventually.


    Thinking so, he felt much more at ease.


    When he turned to go back to the room, he nearly collided with Austin at the doorway.


    Alexander saw thetter rushing away and seized his sleeve.


    "Where are you going?"

    "I have to fetch my parents and grandfather.They might be infected as well."


    Austin pulled a long face and had tears in his eyes.


    The man had been hit with a series of setbacks recently.


    With Dominic falling sick, he had to shoulder everything on his own, and he was now feeling worse


    than when the symbiote tormented him in the earlier stages.


    During that time, he suffered physical pains, and now he was mentally anguished.


    Austin could not even describe his guilt when seeing his closest kin, including his grandfather, suffering


    so much agony.


    "Wait!"


    Alexander stopped him and said, "Since you know it’s infectious, and we still haven’t confirmed the


    transmission medium yet, don’t you think you might infect more people if you go?"


    "I won’t.I''ll drive myself and leave as soon as I pick them up.I won’te into contact with anyone else


    on my way."


    Austin had made up his mind and was anxious.He was dying to see his parents when he heard their


    weak voices over the phone.


    "Once you leave the estate, how can you guarantee you won’t spread it? Besides, how can you be


    sure your parents and grandfather haven''t already spread the disease?" Alexander asked, not letting


    go of his sleeve.


    Although they were unsure about the transmission medium, they were sure he was the source.


    Therefore, he should not be wandering around.


    Anxious, Austin yanked his arm away and yelled, "I don’t f*cking care!"
