Love Comes To Me

Looking at him with a lifeless expression drew laughter from several people present.

Thinking that they had everything packed, Hector and Eloise simply scheduled their return to France for that evening.

After packing time, several people rushed to the airport.

Inside the airport, the radio shouted out information about the flight and Hector walked straight to the gate with Sweety in his arms and Eloise in one hand. Solomon walked ahead like a little adult.

The family's face was a bit too high, and they caused many people to look at them on the way.

The plane flew through thick clouds towards France and, as it was a long-haul flight, it was the following morning when it arrived and landed smoothly. Eloise craned her sore neck and was about to lead Solomon down the plane with the crowd when Hector held Sweety in one arm and took Eloise's other hand.

The two men collected their luggage and had barely reached the entrance to the airport when they saw Thomas walking from a distance with two tall bodyguards accompanying him. Thomas stopped in front of them and said respectfully, "Prince, Miss Eloise, welcome back."

Eloise smiled slightly and nodded.

Solomon let go of Eloise's hand and ran over to Thomas and hugged his leg, deliberately saying, "Uncle Thomas, why aren't you welcoming me?"

Thomas stroked his hair and smiled helplessly, "Well, welcome back little prince and young lady."

The two bodyguards took the luggage and the group headed for the airport entrance.

"Prince."

Walking to the limo, Thomas called out to him. Hector knew Thomas had something to say and watched as the three men got in.

Eloise turned back, saw him standing still and stopped moving too.

Hector waved his hand, his brow full of tenderness, "You get in the car with the kids while I talk to Thomas about something."

Only when the three were in the car did Hector's face return to its businesslike coldness.

"What is it?"

When he suddenly changed his face, Thomas returned to the subject and, with a formal expression on his face, lowered his voice and said, "Almeida wants to see you, she's in a hurry and has been waiting at the airport for some time." Hector was looking at Eloise through the car window when he looked up at his comment and asked, "Where is it? Don't let Eloise know, I'm afraid she'll think more of it."

Thomas responded hastily at his words, "Wouldn't know, I've arranged for another car and Almeida is waiting in it."

Eloise, seeing Hector standing outside with no intention of getting into the car, was a little confused and lowered the window to enquire, "Aren't you getting in?" Hector bent down and said in a warm and reassuring voice, "There was a sudden emergency at the office, you guys go back first."

Eloise looked at him with a face that seemed a little anxious and was a little worried, "Is it going to be hard to handle?"

Hector tugged his lips up and smiled, reaching into the car window and rubbing her hair, "Nothing is too hard for me, don't worry." At this, Eloise put her mind at ease as Hector explained to the driver to drive.

After watching the car go away, Hector asked Thomas to take him to meet Almeida, whose car was parked a short distance away. Hector got into the car and asked straight away, "Is there any new developments?"

Almeida nodded, but said little else.

Hector's eyes were closed and his long, slender fingers were slowly massaged over his temples.

There was some worry in the back of my mind that things must not be going well this time, otherwise Almeida would not have waited at the airport herself.

Looking at the time, Almeida got out of the car and pulled open the passenger door, allowing a man to get in.

Almeida got back into the car and introduced herself, "Prince, this is Sener, whom you have met before in the research lab, he is well known in the direction of viral bacterial research and this time he will fully assist me in the research of Miss Eloise's germ."

Almeida pointed to Hector again and said, "This is Prince Hector."

The two men shook hands briefly and Almeida led the pair back to the Institute.

Walking over to a lab table, Almeida picked up a glass piece and showed it to Hector.

"Based on the blood sample you gave me last time, I extracted the germ inside, a virulent bacterium that is very difficult to isolate and proves to be highly adherent to the dependent body and not well treated."

Hector looked at the blood sample, magnified countless times, his stoic face unreadable.

"That was my research, but Sener found out more."

Almeida raises her chin and gestures for Sener to speak.

"Ken... Prince?" Sener questioned, not sure what to call Hector, after all he wasn't one of Hector's men.

Hector waved his hand carelessly, "Just call me Hector, and please tell me more about my wife."

Almeida gave Hector a surprised look, not expecting Miss Eloise to be able to get him to drop his status.

"This bacterium is indeed a new virus-like bacterium, and I have studied your lady's blood sample and found that this bacterium is able to maintain homeostasis in the human body on its own."

At this point, Sener paused and looked at Hector with a thoughtful expression.

"Does it sound like there will be hope for a cure?"

Hector nodded, "If you can maintain your balance, there shouldn't be any major physical problems, right?"

Sener, however, shakes his head, "That's what's so frightening about this bacterium; it's camouflaged inside normal cells and is very difficult to detect.

It doesn't look like there's anything wrong with the whole person, but when it kicks in, it will destroy the whole body function."

Sener couldn't help but shudder as he said that it was the first time in his years of research that he had found something so frightening.
