Chapter 1498
Lily felt her mind go blank. "W-What happened?"
’I can't explain it over the phone," Alexander quickly answered, "Don't tell Olivia about this yet. I'm still
getting someone to check on his whereabouts. You have to take good care of yourself and the children.
I've sent a few more men over to protect you. You must be attentive and try to go out as little as
possible. Avoid public places."
He seemed to hold his breath as he spoke. He gasped for air once he finished. It was heartbreaking to
hear.
"Alex, what's wrong with you? What happened?" Lily could not hold back her tears anymore and began
to sob.

you take care of yourself, I'd feel much better. I'll be back soon. Don't be scared!"
'Then tell me what's going on." Then a thought about Burnwken flashed across her mind. "Did you
catch the plague?" To her surprise, she once again heard only silence.
Alexander did not speak but would occasionally cough uncontrollably. That was enough for Lily to
know. She felt a rush of an indescribable feeling in her heart for a moment.
She did not expect him to get infected. No wonder he did not come home straight away, nor did he
want to meet her. He must be afraid of infecting her and the children.
At this moment, Lily finally understood everything. With a nod, she said, "I understand. Tell me where
you are, or send me a location. You can stay there, but I have to see you."
"Lily..."
"Trust me. I can help you. I can protect myself as well! I've studied medicine and am well-versed with
medicinal herbs," she casually said.
She knew the only way he would not worry was through her calmness. That way, she could persuade
him to agree to her request.
"Give me two more days. I need to settle down first since I just arrived not too long ago. I'll call you
again once I've settled down," Alexander said after pondering.
"One day!" Lily bargained but wished she could go right now.
She knew that if she pressed on the matter too urgently, he would refuse decisively and not let her go.
Ultimately, she could only bargain for a shorter time frame. After all, she was anxious and could not
wait to rush over to him.
’Lily..." He sighed helplessly.

with the Russell family's abilities, I won't be able to find you. Suppose you don't want me to do that. I
will take the necessary precautions when I meet you."
Silence hung in the air again.
However, Lily could feel that Alexander was succumbing to her request. Not long later, he let out
another faint sigh and said, "Okay—one day. I'll send you the location the day after tomorrow.
Remember to take precautions and not bring too many people with you, understand?"
"Okay!" Of course, she did. Plagues like these were contagious, and no one knew how they spread.
The fewer people she brought, the better it was to prevent it from spreading.
Knowing that he was about to hang up, Lily quickly called out to him, “Alex...
