166 It is called Karma (2/2)
While traveling all over the country and abroad with her father due to his job, Christina did get to see a lot of places and make many friends. However, due to the collapse of her lungs, her world collapses, thus forcing her to deal with the harsh reality.
”You can tell me, sweetie. Your father is not here, and he doesn't have to know.”
I pretty much interrogate her, but subtly.
Christina nods and rubs her arm.
Tears slowly pool in her eyes, making me frown a little.
But let's turn that frown upside down.
”Do you want to see a magic trick? Close your eyes and take a nap, when you wake up again, all those bruises will disappear.”
I tell her. She blinks and then closes her eyes, placing her complete trust in me.
With my power, I slowly reverse time on her body, finding an instant that that her body is without any bruises. It was more than a year ago.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
I decide to have the nanomachines fix it instead because making her younger by a year will make her shorter by an inch or two.
People will definitely notice that, especially her school and friends.
She is in her growing phrase after all.
”Wow.”
Christina calls out as her body is no longer has bruises or lacerations. Both of her lungs have also been corrected by the machine with a drop of vitality solution, allowing her to breath.
But to fix her genes, it would take a bit more time. The nanomachines will work on it while she sleeps, as long as her father didn't inflict anymore physical trauma on her body.
”Since you have been such a good patient, here, have a lollipop.”
I give her an actual lollipop because anything else would be crazy.
And since I am done healing her with the power of science (and magic), I take her into another room, one with a lot of kids, playing with each other.
Laughter is the best medicine. Some idiot tells me before I shove a medical bay down their throat. But still, there is no need for a gloomy and depressing atmosphere.
”Stay here and play until I talk to your father, okay?”
I tell Christina and left her there. She finds friends pretty quickly since she is an optimistic person. She also shares some of her own songs with them.
On my way towards where I need to be, I pass another room to have a look at Jennifer and her father, John Aniston, whose body was completely paralyzed due to the heart stroke he had suffered.
Getting a heart attack is quite common in America with all the junk foods everyone consumed. Those Trans Fats just go straight to their heart.
Should I make sure everyone in America eat heathy and exercise regularly? Do I look like their mother?
Everyone is responsible for their own health, and I only rectify problems that I have caused personally because it bothers me more than a little to ignore them.
Anyway, the both of them are in the rehab center.
Jennifer didn't notice me watching since her attention is focused on her father, as he struggles to walk on his own without help. He shouldn't be able to walk yet according to the original plan, but my actress is too concern about her father to pay attention to work.
I will have to talk to her about that. While I do have infinite patience, my plan for her does not. Either she gets her act together or I will replace her.
And I don't want to replace her since I have her father as a hostage. Yeah. He is my hostage.
I head off after watching for a minute or so.
But instead of heading upstairs to where Allison is, I head to the basement where Xavier is. He didn't get very far before he was grabbed by Shield Security outside. Is it strange to have a prison built under the hospital?
Not really, considering the doctors are doing human experiments whenever they are not saving people upstairs. I rather they do that instead of thinking about implanting some crazy shits in their patients.
They are Hydra agents after all.
For science!
They give zero thoughts to the sanctity of life even if the great Doctor Mathew, head of Hydra Genetics still do.
Xavier is not strapped to the chair or anything in the holding cell without any windows and seemingly any doors. He isn't concern about how he manages to wake up in here since it feels somewhat normal, considering it happens quite frequently with his track record.
Instead, he is more concern about all the claws marks all over the walls, floor and ceiling, cutting deep into the concrete and steel.
”You shouldn't worry about that, Mr. Aguilera. They are there due to some of the specimens we had in here.”
I speak up after a moment. Time is being compressed right now, so I have plenty of time to have a bit of chat with the man.
”I don't know anything, I swear.”
Xavier tells me, making me smile faintly.
”I actually don't care about the experiments that the good old US of A is doing behind everyone's back, Mr. Aguilera. I am here to talk about your daughter and how frighten she is under your care.”
I point out. The Hybridization Project by the United States Military isn't a surprise to me since I already know about it for a while now. I just didn't make much of it since I have footages of real werewolves ripping men apart.
Men who could make their little hybrids piss their pants. So yes, they are a very long way of reaching the same level of biological manipulation like Hydra.
”What? That? She gets that from playing soccer. It has nothing to do with me.”
Xavier responses.
”Is that so. What about several cracked ribs in the left side of her lungs? The are position in places that no one can see unless they check carefully.”
”That's…”
I continue listing out the injuries that Christina has suffered as indicated by the Medical Bay.
Even if those injuries have healed over time, they do still show up on deep scan. People accumulated a lot of injuries inside their body without their knowledges over the years. That is why living forever is not possible even if you don't age.
The body can only take so much.
”I work hard and long for my –
Xavier gets cut off with a punch in his chest, breaking several ribs.
”I don't need to hear the same excuse as my father, Xavier, and I will make sure you understand each and every single pain that you cause your daughter. No, she is not your daughter anymore. You do not have that right anymore.”
And in this space, no one can hear him scream.
