Chapter 417 - Gathering Data

She made it obvious. Hannah Grace walked around the facility and they let her enter wherever she wanted to go. She even followed where they were going to take her brother. They needed more time so she needed to stall them. She hoped that Violet found a way to disarm the destructive nanomites inside Victor's body. The first thing that happened to him on the battlefield is a trigger. It might increase the pain until his nerves would blow out. 

"So, what makes you come here?" Gray asked who was wearing a lab coat. 

"Nothing. I am bored and everything interests me." 

"Uhuh, I can explain a few things if you want." Gray smiled at him charmingly. 

"Yeah, can we start on who the fuck put that nanomites on my brother's bloodstream? I want to kill him." 

"Well, that." Gray sighed. "You can't kill anyone here." 

"Oh, I guess that guy." She pointed to the man in a white lab coat, bald head, and those sharp eyeglasses. 

Gray didn't speak at all. She surely guessed well or she probably knew who made it. She started walking in the doctor's direction. He was busy commanding his students. 

"Hey, Doctor." She called casually as the doctors looked at her and then the doctor dashed out. "Oh, he left. I just want to talk." She scared them even while speaking casually. "Where is he heading?" She asked. 

"Uh, dear." Gray put his hand over her shoulder. "I think that's not a way to approach them?" 

"What did I do wrong?" She slapped his hand away. "I was just only going to ask." 

"Your presence scared them. Didn't you realize?" 

"Hmm, I'm pretty sure that I am beautiful and attractive enough." She crossed her arms. 

"Yeah," Gray grinned and stared at her chest for a moment. Hannah Grace slapped his face.

Gray was taken aback and he reached her left cheek that was hit by her. 

"See you later." She waved off and walked to the direction where the Doctor rushed too. 

She found a lot of people who aren't themselves. She then noticed two children who were sitting in front of the doctor and felt her presence. She knew that they were the level of assassins that was one step closer to Victor's skill. 

"Poor kids." She mumbled. She finally reached the room where they are fixing her brother like he's some kind of machine. She watched as they changed his prosthetic leg and checked his vitals. 

She stared at the database. She could read data fast and it would be forever printed on her head. 

"Miss," The Doctor called. "You can't be here." He said. 

She didn't glance at him and assess everything that they are doing to her brother. When that quack-doctor who was experimenting with her brother. She will save him for later.

"Miss," The doctor was about to reach her arm, but her hand was fast as her arm stretched and she grabbed his face and squeezed it. 

The doctor shuddered but Hannah Grace only pushed his face that made him fall her butt down the floor. 

"I'm busy here. Go away." She said coldly. 

The doctor quickly rushed and everyone was afraid to approach her. She watched with her own eyes on what they were doing to him. Her heart ached but she remained emotionless. 

<><><><> 

Violet sat down on her swivel chair as she flipped her pen all over again without making it fly or fall. It makes her concentrate. She sighed and shook her head. It's been more than twenty-four hours since they injected the nanomites repair on him. The selective amnesia was just temporary. Before they injected something into him, he was already remembering a few things, slowly by slowly. 

"How is he?" She asked the doctor. 

The doctor who was attending Leon extended the tablet to her, to show the data. 

"The repair was already 20 percent, and there's also thirty percent repair on his head. It might not bring back all of his memories but it will cause his hemorrhage." 

"Hmm, that's new." Violet nodded her head. "I am surprised that it also repairs everything in his body. If he wakes up, we need to make sure to assess him." 

"Yes, Ma'am." 

She typed on the keyboard and sighed. Suddenly a message popped up and it was all different characters. It was a code from Johanna. She might have found out a few formulas. 

She quickly transcribed it for an hour. She was so focused that she didn't have time to drink or think about anyone else. After she transcribed it, she sighed finally and read it. 

She edited a few of the translations and took note of her journal.

"Boss, Leon is conscious." The doctor attending Victor said through the telephone speaker directly to her. She responded with a beep. Then, she took her laptop and walked directly to the hospital. She used her car to drive to the hospital. 

Few doctors attending Leon approached her and escorted her to the VIP elevator. When she reached Leon's room, the guy was staring at the ceiling like she realized something bad. 

"Vi," he called without looking at her. 

"So, you are awake." She sat on the chair beside the bed. "How are you feeling?" 

"I feel sad." He mumbled. "Did you tell Alicia? She will be worried." 

"I did. She knows that you are here." 

"Hmm," he sighed. "Where's Hannah Grace?" 

"She's already on the site." 

"What is the last thing you remember?" Violet asked as the Doctor who was attending him was jotting down everything. 

"The war. The missile blew on us." 

"Almost, but the impact on you was great," Violet said. "That's it? You don't remember anything else after that?" She asked. 

"No. I just woke up." 

Violet thought deeply as she stared at him. 

"His recent memories seem to be deleted," Violet concluded. "You don't remember anything else after that?" 

"No. So, are there a few things that happened?" He looked confused. 

"Yup. You can go back to sleep and we will wait until your arm is completely healed." 

"Can I speak to Alicia?" 

"No." Violet stood. "Radiation closer to you will be bad. Go back to sleep or pee… or whatever you need." She said. 

"Did someone put a catheter on me?" He asked. "I don't like catheters at all." 

"I know that." She laughed. "But you were sleeping for more than twenty-four hours."

"My headaches like a bitch." He mumbled. 

"Oh, you are indeed back to your old self. Go back to sleep and tell us what you remember." 

"Hmm, I'm tired of sleeping." 

"But you still can't move." She pointed to his left arm. "It is still regenerating. You will be good as new. These nanomites aren't that great, but I think there is someone better than me who would make it exemplary." 

"Hmm, you are confusing me too much." He mumbled as he closed his eyes. "But my little wife is safe, right?" 

"She's safe." She confirmed. 

"Right," He fell asleep and Violet looked at the doctor. 

"It is amazing." The doctor gaped. 

"Let's leave him for now. Once it's completed, call me." 

"Yes, Ma'am." 

She finally left his room and went to the room just across from Leon's room. She's been staying there for days now or sleeping back at her office. She needs to find out about Johanna's message. 

She started reading it. But it would be better if Ace was around. It will be easy for him to find out about the database. 

"What's taking him so long?" She mumbled with a sigh. She reached for her phone. She dialed Ace's number. It took a long time before he answered. "When are you coming back?" 

"Uhh, I am busy at the moment."

She creased her brows when she seemed to hear something creaking in the background. 

"Call me back when you are done." She hung up and reached her head. "Seriously? Why do you always do that?" She mumbled. This happened before. Every time that Guinevere and Ace are together their sexual drive just shoots up. There's no limit at all. That's why those two are compatible with each other. 

She found out half of it but there's something else that Johanna was trying to say. She exhaled in frustration and glanced at the clock. It was an hour ago since she called Ace. She frowned. That's when her phone rang and she quickly answered it. 

"Hey, wassup sis?" 

"You need to come back here. There's a lot of things to do and to work on." 

"Well, I—uh." 

"Viper. This is serious." 

"Okay! I'm leaving in three hours." 

"Good." She hung up and stared at the papers. 

She mumbled her husband's name. She happened to see it in Johanna's report. 

"I'm sorry, Hannah." She whispered. She's tired and frustrated. She knew that it would be painful for Hannah Grace to stay there and see his brother suffer. But it was the only way. She was the only one who would survive in that area. They won't kill her because they need her. They need her blood and they need to provide another killing machine. She might be forced but Victor will protect her. 

"Doc," A knock on the door interrupted her. 

"Just a minute." 

She put all of the papers and her laptop on the safety briefcase. Then, she went to the door and opened it. 

"It's done." The doctor said and showed her the progress. 

"Is he still asleep?" 

"No. He's awake now." 

"Good." 

Violet went to Leon's room and he already sat up. He complained about the catheter. 

"Damn, you are still wearing the same outfit from seven hours ago. You haven't slept yet?" 

"I didn't realize that it was already the time.." She smiled at him.
