Chapter 359 Hannah''s Vine Dilemma


    Bettany checked Hannah''s injury. "Skin abrasion. You''ll need a preventive vination."


    Gilbert nodded. "The rabies vine will do. It''ll take roughly four to five doses."


    The smile on Hannah''s face froze.


    No. I just got scratched by a cat! Not a dog! Why do I need shots for rabies?


    She began to wail at the top of her lungs. "I don''t wanna! I don''t want an injection!"


    Bettany shook her head. "No can do. There''s a risk of rabies if you don''t get the shots."


    ke crossed his arms and smiled mirthlessly. "Do you know what rabies is?"


    "It''s a virus that enters your body through your wounds and burrows into your brain…"


    Big Headed Hannah cut in before he could finish. "That''s okay!"


    It''s just the brain. Dad always says I don''t have one so it doesn''t matter!


    ke stared at her in disbelief. "..."


    Lilly tried to convince her otherwise. "Maybe you should take the jab, Hannah."


    "Daddy said rabies turns you into a dog that drools all the time. You won''t remember us and will bite


    anyone you see. You''ll kick the bucket after that and I won''t have you anymore, Hannah."


    Lilly looked close to tears.


    Josh helpfully added, "You might even eat poop."


    Huh?


    "..."


    Eat...what…?


    I won''t remember everyone?


    Kick the bucket?


    I won''t get to y with Lilly anymore?


    Hannah wanted to cry. "O…Okay then. Can we do…just one?"


    Bettany was surprised to see her willingness topromise.


    "No. You need four to five doses. Five doses mean five jabs. Four doses mean three jabs," Gilbert said.


    Hannah didn''t think about why four doses meant three jabs and immediately answered, "Four doses!"


    That was how a decision was made. After everyone had eaten, Bettany whisked Hannah away.


    ke was the designated driver.


    "You seem to have a lot of time on your hands today," Bettany said.


    She recalled how ke wanted to resign. His boss had evene to her to ask for rification.


    She kept her eye on him day in and day out for fear that he would run away regardless of whether he


    had a mission or not.


    "I got half the day off," he answered.


    He came home to see his precious daughter.


    Bettany twitched.


    Hannah was afraid of needles. She''d always caused a fuss whenever injections were involved. It took


    three grown adults to hold her down for it to be administered.


    Bettany was terribly afraid that Hannah would go back on her word, which was why she agreed to her


    request to have Lilly apany her.


    It seemed only Lilly could hold her down…


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    Even if she couldn''t, they''d still have God of Battle himself with them. Surely they''d be able to subdue


    her.


    Lilly had brought both Polly and Mr. Tortoise along out of worry.


    Polly stared at the cat from within the pet luggage.


    "Bye, idiot!" Polly squawked at the cat.


    "..."


    Lilly knelt down and said seriously, "Be good. Don''t damage anything!"


    "Look! You hurt Hannah. Now she has to go get injections."


    "You scared Polly too. Look at what you''ve done!"


    She nudged the cat''s head.


    The tabby cat sat obediently in ce with its head hung low.


    Even Lilly couldn''t help but feel sorry for it and switched to petting its head. "Alright. A cat who can


    change is a good cat. Wait for us toe home and we''ll give you a name!"


    It was Grandpa and Grandma who named me when I first arrived here.


    I''m a grown-up who can decide on the kitty''s name!


    The cat meowed as it rubbed itself against her hand and began to purr.


    It then watched as ke''s SUV left.


    "Meow." The tabby cat meowed and went wandering around thewn on its own.


    Josh had to shoulder the important task of cat-sitting. He didn''t want to bother the others and decided


    to unearth a drone to the mansion''stest pet collection.


    It wasying underneath the shade of the tree on thewn and staring out at the fence.


    He muttered to himself, "It''s so docile now. Where did all that fire go?"


    …


    ke lined up to get them registered at the clinic.


    Hannah was ushered into the vination room before she was done mentally preparing herself.


    There were two children ahead of her who were crying up a storm.


    Big Head Hannah finally felt the fear set in. "Can wee back tomorrow?"


    Bettany, having expected this, shook her head. "No. You must be vinated within 24 hours after


    being scratched by a cat."


    Hannah suddenly became a mathematician. "24 hours? We would still be within the 24-hour time frame


    if wee back at the same time tomorrow. Let''s juste back tomorrow!"


    Lilly held her down. "No. Grandma says the sooner you get it, the better it works. Show your courage,


    Hannah. You can do it!"


    The two children ahead of her were done.


    Hannah burst into tears. "I can''t do it! Uwah!"


    She had nowhere to run. ke had made sure to block off all the escape routes.


    The man had scooped her up into his arms like it was nothing and pressed her down into the seat.


    She couldn''t move with his hand keeping her in ce.


    The nurse looked amused.


    She checked through the information on the clipboard. "It''ll be two shots for the first dose. Both left and


    right arms will receive a jab."


    "What?!"


    Two?


    Why two?


    The sight of the needle in the nurse''s hand with a tiny bit of the drug bubbling out of it scared her


    witless.


    She began to wail even louder than the two children who came before her.


    "No! I don''t want it! It hurts!"


    The nurse hadn''t even started…


    Polly, in her pet carrier, couldn''t help but cover her ears with her wings.


    Pablo seemed amused. "I almost forgot how good she was at crying."


    Bettany acted as cool as a cucumber as she fitted earplugs into her ears with all the grace of a cultured


    woman.


    ke was here after all.


    Would a God of War allow a child to escape him?


    "..."


    ke couldn''t let her escape but his eardrums suffered the price.


    Lilly endured her shrill cries and patted Hannah''s handfortingly. "Stop crying, Hannah! I''m going


    deaf!"


    "Uwaaah ”


    Lilly came up with a good idea. "Oh, why don''t you switch up your cries a little bit, Hannah? Every time


    you feel like crying, just scream ''I can do it'' to boost your morale!"


    "Uh…I can do it…"


    The nurse returned with the needle. "It''ll be quick. Hold on."


    She screamed the moment she felt it pierced through her skin. "Ah…"


    It was Lilly''s words ringing in her head that her incoherent cries turned into yells of positive affirmation.


    It resulted in a spooky sight in the room.


    The child being given a shot was screaming over and over again, "I can do it! I can do it! Oww, I can do


    it!"


    The crowd watched on in amusement with ke feeling shame rush over him.
