still worried as the outsiders had no idea how to deal with the virus.
Fortunately, she could still use her phone.
For everyone's sake, she could only follow the rules and nod.
"I got it. | won't leave and will stay right here."
Dr.Blanc sighed.
"I know I'm asking alot from you and everyone else, but | hope you can all understand due to the unusual circumstances. won't be
going heither."
Lily gave him a slight nod and was about to leave when she thought of something and turned around.
"Dr.Blanc, how long is the incubation period?"
"Based on what we know, it's about seven days.However, since our data is not comprehensive with limited cases within the

‘I see!” In other words, she could not leave the place for at least seven days.
Lily retired to her assigned bedroom and realized the place was small but decent since it cwith necessities.lt was just as
Dr.Blanc said.
There was also an attached bathroom for Lily to shower.

She finally felt her exhaustion kicking in.She grew sleepy, probably because she finally started to relax.
She took out her phone, wanting to call and ask about Alexander's condition, but before she could dial the number, her eyelids
shut close, and she conked out as her head drooped.
After stime, the vibration in her hand jerked her awake.

"Hello?"
"Lily, have you not returned hlately?"

‘Would Cameron becso mean? That's unlike him! Although | wouldn't call him a doting father, he loves his daughter dearly.
How would he leave her stranded with nowhere to go, so much so that she has to callfor help?’ "It's along story.
